The Utility Function Shows That S and K can be used interchangeably, according to the utility function, and only one of them is really consumed.

  • Utility in economics refers to the pleasure or happiness that customers derive from using an item or service. Consumer preferences for a variety of products and services are gauged by the utility function.

<u>CALCULATION</u>

Although the benefit or happiness that customers experience is calculated in units called utils

  • MPs / MPk = 3/4 = 0.75 for MRS.
  • Ps / Pk= 2 / 3 = 0.67
  • MRS > Ps/Pk,

Hence only S will be employed.

'Starfruit' = 60 / 2 = '30

Kiwi = 0

Answer: Harder to sustain cooperation

Explanation:

When the number of firms in an oligopolistic market increases as is the case here, cooperation becomes harder because profits become smaller so companies start to become more selfish.

Also in this scenario, the cheating firm has the incentive to do so because the profit is so much higher than sharing so companies will always be looking to cheat in order to make this profit. The other firms would reply by reducing prices and all of them would suffer.

During March, Patt, Inc. purchases and uses 8,800 pounds of materials costing $35,640 to make 4,000 tiles. Patt's standard mater
omeli [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Total material cost variance

= (Standard quantity × standard price) - (actual quantity × actual price)

= (4,000 tiles × 2 pounds of material × $4) - (8,800 pounds × $35,640 ÷ 8,800 pounds)

= (8,000 pounds × $4) - ($8,800 pounds × $4.05)

= $3,640 unfavorable

For material price variance

= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= 8,800 × ($4 - $4.05)

= $440 unfavorable

For material quantity variance

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $4 × (8,000 pounds - 8,800 pounds)

= $3,200 unfavorable

The favorable variance is that in which the standard cost is more than the actual cost and the inverse goes to unfavorable variance
