Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
Stephen can move 70 boxes or bake 28 cookies:
Opportunity cost of moving a box = (28 ÷ 70)
= 0.4 cookies
Opportunity cost of baking a cookie = (70 ÷ 28)
= 2.5 boxes
LeBron could move 24 boxes or bake 6 cookies:
Opportunity cost of moving a box = (6 ÷ 24)
= 0.25 cookies
Opportunity cost of baking a cookie = (24 ÷ 6)
= 4 boxes
Yes, trade is possible.
Stephen has a comparative advantage in baking cookies because of the lower opportunity cost than LeBron, so he is specialized in baking cookies.
On the other hand, LeBron has a comparative advantage in moving boxes because of the lower opportunity cost than Stephen, so he is specialized in moving boxes.
Answer:
$6,689
Explanation:
As we know that the inventory should be recorded at cost or net realizable value which ever is lower
Particulars Item Units Unit Cost Net Realizable Value LCNRV
Minolta 7 $175 $157 $157
Canon 11 142 176 $142
Vivitar 14 130 111 $111
Kodak 17 120 132 $120
So, the amount of ending inventory is
= 7 units × $157 + 11 units × $142 + 14 units × $111 + 17 units × $120
= $1,099 + $1,562 + $1,988 + $2,040
= $6,689
<u>Answer</u>: Certain brand names, such as Kleenex or Xerox, have become generic name.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Generic name is the term used to refer a product with its brand name rather than the product itself. Kleenex and Xerox are the brand names of the products. Xerox is photocopying product and Kleenex is the brand name for wet wipes. People commonly use the word Kleenex instead of tissues or wet wipes.
This process can be called as genericization and companies loose their trademarks due to these usage of names. These generic names have wide spread popularity.
