I believe the correct answer is the first option. The labor supply curve is upward sloping because the opportunity cost of leisure decreases as wages decrease and the opposite of such is true as well. As one work one hour more, one will have less time for other activities. As the work rate increases in value, then the opportunity cost increases as well.

In each of the following scenarios, explain and categorize the cost of inflation.a) Because inflation has risen, the J.Crew clot
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Consider the following explanation

Explanation:

a) J. Crew is issuing its catalogs monthly in response to inflation. This will incur cost and it is known as 'Menu Cost'.

b) Grandpa has bought annuity which has promised $10,000 a year for the rest of his life. However, higher than expected inflation means grandpa has lesser purchasing power. This is loss of purchasing power and also 'redistribution cost'. In higher inflation borrower tends to get benefit. Here insurance company is at the gain.

c) Maria is witnessing loss of purchasing power because of hyper inflation. In such scenario, cost keeps rising and product's price could be higher a few hours later. This was witnessed in Germany as well as in Zimbabwe. People run to the stores as soon as they get cash or salary. It is known as 'shoe leather cost'. People make frequent trips to banks or stores but do not keep cash in fear of losing value.

d) Gita actually earned only 5% on her portfolio but as her income is in taxable bracket so she has to pay 20% tax. Her income from portfolio not even compensated inflation. This is a redistribution cost and also known as fiscal drag. More people fall into bracket because higher nominal income but real income is neglected which makes people worse off.

e) Father thinks that son is earning far more than him but inflation over the period of time erodes purchasing power and it could be possible that current income might be lower, same or higher comparing to inflation data. However, if it is lower then it is obviously loss of purchasing power.

Bess [88]

Equivalent Units of Conversion Costs The Rolling Department of Kraus Steel Company had 200 tons in beginning work in process inv
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Equivalent units  =   3,855 units

Explanation:

Equivalent unit are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between working in progress and completed work.

Equivalent unit is calculated as:

Degree of completion (%) × Units .

The equivalent units can be calculated by using either the first in first out (FIFO)  or weighted average method.

Here, we will use the FIFO.

FIFO: Under this method, to account for the completed units of a particular period, it is assumed that the opening inventory units must first be completed. That is, the first set of completed units should be the opening inventory.

The table below has been set out for explanation:

Items                   Units Notes Workings Equiv.Units

Opening inventory  200  1 40% × 200 80

Fully worked               3,700  2 100% × 3700 3700

Closing Inventory          300  3 25% × 300 75

Equivalent unit                                  3,855.0

Notes

1. 60% work has already been done in the previous period (September) so in October the balance is done.

2. The fully work represents units of new work introduced in October and completed in the same period. The value is 3900- 200 = 3700

3. The closing inventory is the units of new work started in October but not yet completed at the end of October.

Equivalent units = 3,855.0
