By definition, opportunity cost is the cost of the next alternative that you gave up because you choose another one. In this case, there are two alternatives: the closer gas station and the farther gas station. Because you chose the cheaper but farther gas station, then the opportunity cost is $2.50 for the closer gas station.

Stolb23 [73]

Based on the metrics given, we can say that shipping errors were <u>not very impactful </u>on customer questions.

<h3>Relationships between metrics</h3>
  • Customer questions kept rising by 2% from the first month till the third month.
  • Shipping errors (shipped incorrectly) rose by 2% from the first to the second month and then stayed constant.

What we then realize is that even though questions kept rising, shipping errors only rose once which means that shipping errors did not account for much of customer questions. If it did, the customer questions would have stayed constant as well.

In conclusion, shipping errors were not very impactful.

Omar invested his savings in two investment funds. The $6000 that he invested in Fund A returned a 3% profit. The amount that he
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Investment in fund b = $15,000

Explanation:

Let us assume  funds invested in fund b = x while the sum total of funds invested in fund a & b = Y .ie Y = $6000 + x

Fund A returned $6000 * 3/100 = $180

Fund B returned = x & 10/100 = x/10

8%y(total returns) = funds a returns + fund b returns

8%y = $180 + (x/10)

let is replace y with 6000 + x

(6000 +x) * 8% = 180 + (x/10)

480+ 8x/100 = 180 + (x/10)

480 - 180 = (x/10) - (8x/100)

300 =        (10x - 8x )/100

300 = 2x/100

300*100 = 2x

30,000 = 2x

x = 15, 000

Tom sells his father's watch for $100 to sue. he later finds out from his father that the watch was an expensive rolex. tom want
Daniel [21]

The court would rule in sue's favor because courts seldom inquire into the adequacy of consideration.

In contracts, <em>consideration </em>just means the <em>exchange of things of value</em>. There has to be an exchange of things of value for there to be an enforceable contract, and in this case a watch was exchanged for money. It is rare for courts to rule on how much consideration is expected because people are generally free to set their own prices and not sell if the price is too low. That is not for a court to decide (in most cases).
