In a perfectly competitive market bell computers will cause profits to increase by producing one more.

A hypothetical market system is referred to as perfect competition. Perfect competition offers a valuable model for illustrating how supply and demand influence pricing and behaviour in a market economy, despite perfect competition seldom occurring in actual markets.

One of the most efficiently operating markets is one with perfect competition, when a large number of buyers and suppliers cooperate perfectly. Sadly, it is a hypothetical event that does not occur in the real world. But in order to guarantee a fair price for all goods and services, markets should strive to be as similar to this type of market as feasible.

Robert treats coffee and creamer as perfect complements and has very specific requirements for the ratio of creamer to coffee. H
diamong [38]

Answer:

a. Robert's optimal consumption bundle contains <u>9.18</u> cups of coffee and <u>45.88</u> packets of creamer.

b. Zero packets of creamer is the substitution effect.

Explanation:

a. Suppose that Robert has $39.00 to spend on coffee and creamer. His optimal consumption bundle contains _______cups of coffee and _________

The consumption ratio can be stated as follows:

5 Creamer = 1 cup of coffee

Budget line has an equation can also be given as follows:

B = (Pm * Qm) + (Pf * Qf) ...................... (1)

Where;

B = Budget = The amount Robert has to spend on coffee and creamer = $39.00

Pm = Price of creamer = $0.25

Qm = Quantity of creamer = ?

Pf = Price of coffee = $3.00

Qf = Quantity of coffee = ?

39 = (0.25 * Qm) + (3 * Qf)

39 = 0.25Qm + 3Qf

Since "5 Creamer = 1 cup of coffee". This also implies thal 1 creamer = 1 / 5 cup of coffee. Therefore, we have;

39 = 0.25Qm + (3 * 1/5 * Qm)

39 = 0.25Qm + (3/5)Qm

39 = 0.25Qm + 0.60Qm

39 = 0.85Qm

Qm = 39 / 0.85

Qm = 45.88

Qf = 45 / 5 = 9.18

Therefore, Robert's optimal consumption bundle contains <u>9.18</u> cups of coffee and <u>45.88</u> packets of creamer.

b. Now, suppose that the price of creamer rises to $0.50 per packet. What is the substitution effect of this price change?

Since Robert treats coffee and creamer as perfect complements, this implies that there there is nothing like substitution effect under this condition.

Therefore, zero packets of creamer is the substitution effect.

If equilibrium GDP is $250 billion less than the targeted level of GDP, and the Multiplier Model has an mpe of 0.75, then we can
Olegator [25]

Answer:

c. increasing; $62.5

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

As we know that

Multiplier = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

= 1 ÷ 1 - 0.75

= 1 ÷ 0.25

= 4

Now if the equilibrium GDP is $250 billion less than the expected level of GDP

So, the government spending would be increased by

= $250 billion ÷ 4

= $62.5

Hence, the correct option is c.

The movement of parts from one area of the factory to another is considered a value-added activity whereas the storage of raw ma
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Value can be defined as the thing for which an customer is willing to pay the price. It is the activity on any shop floor or business for delivering the product or service to the customer for which the customer is ready to pay the price for it.

If the customers does not wish to pay the price, then there is no value.

So inside a factory, in a shop floor, moving a part from one place to another for making a product that the customer is willing to pay is a value added activity. But excess movement or transportation of product does not any value to it, it is then considered as a waste.

Also storing of products is a non value activity as storing a product will not help the customer in any way and a customer will not pay for a product when it is stored and is of no use to the customer.

andre [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Issue price of bond = $330,654

Face Value = $272000

Premium on issue of bond = $330,654 - $272000 = 58654

Journal entry for bond issuance:

Cash Dr $330,654

Bonds Payable $272000

Premium on Bonds payable $58654

(Being bond issued at a premium of $58654)

As per effective interest method, interest expense = market rate * book value of bond

= 6.5% * $330,654 = $21492.5

Cash interest = $272000 * 9.5% = $25840

Premium to be amortized on interest date = $25840 - $21492.5 = $4347.5 or $4348
