Answer:

$22,000

Explanation:

Given that

1st house rented = 10,000

2nd house estimated rent = 12,000

Therefore,

= 10,000 + 12000

With the new​ technology, the opportunity cost of producing a chicken​ _____ because​ _____ soybeans must be forgone to produce
dexar [7]

The full question is:

A farm grows soybean and produces chickens. The opportunity cost of producing each of these products increases as more of it is produced.

The farm adopts a new technology which allows it to use fewer resources to produce soybean.

With the new​ technology, the opportunity cost of producing a chicken​ _____ because​ _____ soybeans must be forgone to produce a chicken.

Answer:

increases​; more

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the forgone alternative when a particular line of action is undertaken. For example in the given scenario more production of chicken will lead to loss of soyabean production and vice versa.

So when there is production of more chicken more opportunity cost is incurred because more of soyabean production is forgone in order to produce the chicken.

Economists consider opportunity cost seperately from the actual cost incurred in taking up a particular activity.
