Olivia likes to eat both apples and bananas. At the grocery store, each apple costs $0.20 and each banana cost $0.25. Olivia’s u

icang [17]

Answer:

Therefore, Olivia should buy 10 apples and 8 bananas to maximize her utility.

Explanation:

Let A represent the number of apples bought and B represent the number of bananas bought. Therefore since Olivia has $4 to spend:

0.2A + 0.25B = 4 (1)

Also, the tangency condition can be used to find the optimal amount of A to relative to B. It is give as:

$MU_A/P_A=MU_B/P_B\\\\\frac{3\sqrt{\frac{B}{A} } }{0.2}= \frac{3\sqrt{\frac{A}{B} } }{0.25}\\\\15\sqrt{\frac{B}{A} }=12\sqrt{\frac{A}{B} }\\\\squaring\ both\ sides:\\\\\frac{225B}{A} =\frac{144A}{B}\\\\225B^2=144A^2\\\\B^2=0.64A^2\\\\Taking\ square\ root:\\\\B=0.8A$

Put B = 0.8A in equation 1:

0.2A + 0.25(0.8A) = 4

0.2A + 0.2A = 4

0.4A = 4

A = 10

B = 0.8(A) = 0.8(10) = 8

Therefore, Olivia should buy 10 apples and 8 bananas to maximize her utility.

Answer: Businessmen traveling around the country found themselves borrowing funds from their customers each stage of the way. The cash they'd allocated for the entire trip barely sufficed to pay the way to the next stop."

Explanation:

Inflation is when there is a general increase in the prices of goods and services on the economy.

The best illustration of the wealth effect of inflation based on the article titled "Inflation and the Weimar Republic," is that businessmen traveling around the country found themselves borrowing funds from their customers each stage of the way. The cash they'd allocated for the entire trip barely sufficed to pay the way to the next stop."

This is because when there is inflation, theee will be rise in price and hence, the money the businessmen wanted to use won't be enough to get meet their needs hence they'll need more funds.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable. (the options in the question are not correct).

Explanation:

The direct materials quantity variance represents a difference between what was actually produced and the standard or idea that should have been produced especially with regards to the use of direct materials.

To calculate material quantity variance

Step 1:Calculate the Standard Usage of Material

Formula= (Actual Units of Finished goods Purchased x Standard Price of Material per unit)

= 4,000 units x 15 Pounds

= 60,000 Pounds

This means the standard material usage is 60,000 pounds

Step 2: Now calculate the Direct Material Quantity Variance

Formula= (Standard Material Usage - Actual Material Usage) x The Standard Price per Unit of Material

= 60,000 pounds (computed in step 1) - 40,000 pounds (given in the question)

= 20,000 pounds x $0.54

=$10,800

Since the standard Material is higher than the actual material usage, it means that the answer is as follows;

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable.

Kindly note that the multiple options in the question above are for a different set of figures and a different question.
