Answer:
B. Producing 50 shoes using resources that cost $25
Explanation:
Productivity is described as a measure of efficiency. An increase in efficiency results in an increase in productivity. Productivity is the efficient use of resources. It is the ability to give more output using fewer resources.
An increase in productivity is an increase in production using proportionate fewer resources. In this case, producing 50 shoes with resources of $25 is the most efficient way of using resources from the list produced.
Answer:
$185,400
Explanation:
Price of next best alternative = $150,000
Expected crash system saving:
= (Probability of crash × cost of a system crash) - (Probability of machine will crash × cost of a system crash)
= [(15% × 500,000) - (5% × 500,000)]
= $75,000 - $25,000
= $50,000
Added operating cost true economic value:
= (Number of hours in 365 days × machine cost per hour) - (Number of hours in 365 days × Next best alternative cost per hour)
= [(2,920 × $20/hr) - (2,920 × $15/hr)]
= $58,400 - $43,800
= $14,600
True economic value (TEV) of the machine:
= Price of next best alternative + Expected crash system saving - Added operating cost true economic value
= $150,000 + $50,000 - $14,600
= $185,400
Answer:
Vera Incorporated
Change in annual operating income from discontinued business:
Annual Operating Income would reduce by $78,000.
Explanation:
a) Calculation of the Net Income Lost:
Loss of Contribution ($99,000)
Avoidable fixed cost $21,000
Reduction of Income ($78,000)
b) The line of purses contributes $80,000 towards the company's fixed cost. Therefore, discontinuing this line of business would lead to the loss of this steam of income. The amount of reduced operating income will be $78,000 ($80,000 - 2,000).
Answer:
(a) 5
(b) $150 million
(c) 45 million
Explanation:
(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC
)
= 1 ÷ (1 - 0.8
)
= 1 ÷ 0.2
= 5 ⇒ the value of the simple multiplier is 5.
b) If the autonomous expenditure is increased by $30 million then the total output will increase by:
= $30 million × 5
= $150 million
c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:
= 150 × 0.3
= 45 million
