A land title search office has a staff of three, each working eight hours per day (for a total payroll cost of $480/day) and ove

rhead costs of $300 per day. This office processed an average of seven titles each day. The office recently purchased a computerized title-search system that will allow the processing of an average of 12 titles per day. Although the staff, work hours, and pay will be the same, the overhead costs are now $600 per day. Calculate the labour productivity in the old and the new systems. How much (in percentage) has the labour productivity grown?

<span>Well, your costs per title have decreased from: $780/7 = $111.43 to: $1080/12 = $90 That represents a decrease in costs of almost 20%. Then. taking the change in titles processed per dollar of cost (the reciprocals of previous calculations), means that total productivity has increased by around 23.8%. Are you calculating labor productivity as including overhead? Because then the answer is 23.8%.</span>

For an auto insurance company, the average cost of collision claims is $500 per year for careful drivers and $3000 per year for
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance  

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year

His income increased dramatically;from$5000 a year to $60,000 a year. Jim decides that instead of using the bus, he would buy a
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

This implies that bus is an inferior good and car is a normal good.

Explanation:

Initially, Jim's income was $5000 a year.

As his income increases to $60,000 a year, he decides to buy a car instead of using the bus.  

In other words, with the increase in income, the demand for traveling by bus is declining.  

This implies that it is an inferior good.  

The demand for the car is increasing with an increase in income.  

So, the car is a normal good.  

An inferior good can be defined as a product that shows negative elasticity. This means with an increase in income its demand declines an vice versa.

A normal good can be defined as a product that shows positive income elasticity. That is, its demand increases with rise in income and vice versa.

Identify whether each statement in the following table best illustrates the concept of consumers’ surplus, producers’ surplus, o
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1. Neither ; 2. Consumer Surplus ; 3. Producer Surplus

Explanation:

Consumer Surplus is the difference between a good's price paid by consumer, & maximum price the consumer is willing to pay for the good.

Producer Surplus is the difference between a good's price received by a seller, & minimum price at which the seller is willing to sell the good.

1. Willing to pay $209 for watch, buyer willing to sell at $196, no trade as price ceiling at $190 : It illustrates neither concept as transaction has not actually occurred, so no price established.

2. Willing to pay $39 for sweater, purchased it for $32 : It illustrates 'Consumer Surplus' case = $7 , as it shows difference between maximum willingness to pay by buyer ($39) & the actual buy price ($32)

3. Willing to sell laptop at $190, sold it at $199 : It illustrates 'Producer Surplus' case = $9 , as it shows difference between minimum willingness to sell price ($190) &  actual sale price ($199)
