A natural monopoly, such as a local electricity provider, is the result of long run average total costs declining continuously as output increases. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is option "3". The initial cost of power generation and power distribution cost is high. Once the generation starts and the number of consumer increases, the average cost starts declining.
Answer: Sunk cost
Explanation:
A sunk cost is a cost that an individual, firm or the government has already incurred and therefore can't be recovered anymore.
For example, marketing campaign expenses, rent or the money that is spent on purchasing new equipment can all be referred to as sunk costs as they are past cost and can't be recovered again.
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Last year:
DVDs sold = 10
Selling price of each DVD = $20
DVD players sold = 5
Selling price of each DVD player = $100
This year:
DVDs sold = 150
Selling price of each DVD = $10
DVD players sold = 10
Selling price of each DVD player = $60
Real GDP:
= (No. of DVDs sold this year × Selling price of each DVD last year) + (No. of DVD players sold this year × Selling price of each DVD player last year)
= (150 × $20) + (10 × $100
)
= 3,000 + 1,000
= $4,000.
Answer:
<h2>In the context of Consumer Theory or Indifference Curve involving two goods,the opportunity of any one good is computed by how much of the other good is foregone or sacrificed to purchase one more unit of that particular good.</h2>
Explanation:
- In this instance,when Bill's diner consumes 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dog=
.Therefore,initially Bill diner's opportunity cost of an additional hot dog is 1.4 units of burger.
- Now,when Bill's diner chooses to consume a combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot dogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dogs=
approximately.Hence,Bill's diner is willing to sacrifice approximately 0.385 units of burger to consume an additional unit of hot dog. - Now,due to the change in consumption combination,the change in opportunity cost of additional hot dog=
units of burger.Notice,that here the opportunity cost of additional hot dog decreased from 1.4 units of burger to 0.385 units of burger as Bill's diner changed the consumption combination of both burgers and hot dogs.
Answer:
c) finish-to-start; start-to-start
Explanation:
Project dependencies are the time relationships between a predecessor and a successor in project management. In other words, these dependencies describe which activity among the two needs to start earlier or later and when it needs to start or finish compared to the other one.
The most common type of dependency in all projects (no matter the nature or industry) is the finish-to-start one, where the activity A needs to be completed before activity B starts, e.g. base nail polish has to be put before the top coat gets put on the nails.
The second most common type of dependency is the<em> start-to-star</em>t one, where two activities need to start at the same time. This is common for activities where synchronization is paramount.
