The gardener's opportunity cost of a bushel of beans multiplied by her opportunity cost of a bushel of corn is equal to 1.

<h3>How to solve for the opportunity cost</h3>

We have that the garden can either produce 2 bushels of bean of 5 bushels of corn.

Hence we would have the opportunity cost of either items to be 2/5 for a bushel of bean and 5/2 for a 1 bushel of corn.

Hence when we multiply these values we would have 5/2 * 2/5

= 10/10

= 1

Hence the the gardener's opportunity cost of a bushel of beans multiplied by her opportunity cost of a bushel of corn is equal to 1.

olga55 [171]

Answer: The answer is b. The benefit of the music to Ty must exceed the cost of the noise to Olivia.

Explanation: According to the Coase Theorem, as long as Ty values his stereo system Olivia will still not get the benefit of the doubt to get her sleep. So Ty has to pay her enough that it would benefit himself and his neighbor Olivia.

Knox Company has a new product with a projected selling price of $6.00 each. It estimates that it could sell 100,000 units annua

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

350,000

And if done per unit, $3.50

Explanation:

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

The target cost of the product is the difference between the selling price and the anticipated profit.

Target cost per unit

= $6.00 - $2.50

= $3.50

Total Target cost = $3.50 * 100,000

= $350,000

Vika [28.1K]

The complete question is as follows:

The admission directory of Big City University has a novel idea. He proposed using the IQ scores of current students as a marketing tool. The university agrees to provide him with enough money to administer IQ tests to 50 students. So the director gives the IQ test to an SRS of 50 of the university’s 5000 freshman. The mean IQ score for the sample is xbar=112. The IQ test he administered is known to have a σ of 15. What is the 95% Confidence Interval about the mean? What can the director say about the mean score of the population of all 5000 freshman?

Answer: The 95% confidence interval about the mean is $Confidence interval = 107.84 \leq \mu \leq 116.16$ .

The director can say that he is 95% confident that the mean IQ score of the 5000 freshmen lies between 107.84 and 116.16.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Since the population standard deviation of the IQ test is known, we can use the Z scores to find the confidence interval.

The formula for the confidence interval about the mean is:

$Confidence interval = \overline{X}\pm Z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In the equation above, X bar is known as the point estimate and the second term is known as Margin of Error.

The Critical Value of Z at the 95% confidence level is 1.96.

Substituting the values in the question in the equation above we have,

$Confidence interval = \112\pm 1.96*\frac{15}{\sqrt{50}}$

$Confidence interval = \112\pm 4.157787873}$

$Confidence interval = 107.8422121 \leq \mu \leq 116.1577879$
