Answer:
Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is defined as the ability of a firm to produce higher amounts of a product as a result of use of the same resources with other competitors. It is usually bad a result of more efficient production process.
Comparative advantage is the ability of a firm to produce goods at a lower opportunity cost. Therefore they are able to sell at lower price compared to competitors.
Georgeland can produce 18 units of clothe per year while Alland can produce 16 units per year, so Georgeland has absolute advantage.
In producing clothes Georgeland has opportunity cost of 36 units of food which is higher than that of Alland which is 32 units of food. So Georgeland does not have comparative advantage in producing clothes.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Real GDP measure total economic output by an economy in a specific geographical boundary regardless of ownership of factors of production, within a year, ceteris paribus.
Real GDP is a good indicator but is not a perfect indicator as underground economy (private tuition whereby taxes and consumption of goods and services) are not accounted for.
Real GDP does not measure Non-Material standard of living like leisure hours, health and life expectancy... It needs other indicators.
Both B and D is a bit effy as:
For D, GDP does not even measure such Non-Material SOL
For B, GDP is not 100 percent accurate on measuring household production (local production? I believe there is no such phrasing as household production as by economics, household is involved in household spending, Contributing to Consumption expenditure in Aggregate Demand.) as there are other factors like presence of underground economy that is not accounted for.
However, B seems like the most accurate ans as it still measures national output.
Answer:
a.Operating Cycle = Inventory Conversion period + Days Sales Outstanding = 100 + 35 = 135 Days
Cash Conversion Cycle = Inventory Conversion period + Days Sales Outstanding - Days Payables Outstanding
= 100 + 35 - 11 = 124 Days
b.If Carraway were to decide to take full advantage of its credit terms and delay payment until the last possible date , their cash conversion cycle is 100 + 35 - 51 = 84 Days
c.Carraway should take its suppliers offer to finance its inventory with the interest free 35 Day loan
Answer:
19.82%
Explanation:
Midpoint method = Q2 - Q1 / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] / P2 - P1 / [(P2+P1) / 2]
3.33 = 2000 - 1000 / [(2000 + 1000) / 2] / P2 - P1 / [(P2+P1)/2]
3.33 = 0.66 / (P2 - P1) / [(P2+P1)/2]
By cross multiplying we have
0.66 = 3.33 [ (P2 - P1) / [(P2+P1)/2]
divide both sides by 3.33
19.82% = The mid point change in price.
Answer: Planning
Explanation: Planning refers to the process of setting goals and procedures and determining the need of resources to accomplish those goals.
In the given case, Hazel has already set her goal of providing the best ice cream in the market. Now she needs to set the procedures of how she can do so in an ethical manner.
