To achieve gains from trade, each nation should specialize in the production of a good or service if:
irinina [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A country gains from trade if it specialises in the production of the good for which it has a comparative advantage

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries. this means that the country can produce the good by forgoing fewer alternative products

For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.  

for country A,  

opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2

for country B,  

opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2

Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice

After evaluating Null Company’s manufacturing process, management decides to establish standards of 2 hours of direct labor per
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For October month:

The computation of the direct labor price variance is shown below:  

= Actual Hours × (Actual rate - standard rate)  

= 11,500 × ($180,550 ÷ 11,500 hours - $15.50 per hour)  

= 11,500 × ($15.70 - $15.50)

= $2,300 unfavorable

The computation of the direct labor efficiency variance is shown below:  

= Standard Rate × (Actual hours - Standard hours)  

= $15.50 per hour × (11,500 hours - 6,100 units × 2 hours)  

= $15.50 per hour × 700 hours

= $10,850 favorable

The computation of the total direct labor cost variance is shown below:

= Direct labor rate variance + direct labor efficiency variance

=  $2,300 unfavorable  +  $10,850 favorable

= $8,550 favorable

For November month:

The computation of the direct labor price variance is shown below:  

= Actual Hours × (Actual rate - standard rate)  

= 22,500 × ($355,500 ÷ 22,500 hours - $15.50 per hour)  

= 22,500 × ($15.80 - $15.50)

= $6,750 unfavorable

The computation of the direct labor efficiency variance is shown below:  

= Standard Rate × (Actual hours - Standard hours)  

= $15.50 per hour × (22,500 hours - 6,500 units × 2 hours)  

= $15.50 per hour × 9,500 hours

= $147,250 favorable

The computation of the total direct labor cost variance is shown below:

= Direct labor rate variance + direct labor efficiency variance

=  $6,750 unfavorable  +  $147,250 favorable

= $140,500 favorable

VashaNatasha [74]

Explanation:

Dear uncle,

First of all I would like to thank you for all the attention you have given to my education, it is clear that your financial contribution has helped me a lot to achieve my academic goals, but I am proud to have in my family a person like you, who considers the education an opportunity for life and future change for me and the country.

So I come to bring you news about my college that I am sure will make you happy! In this semester I wrote a scientific article on environmental management that was highly praised by my professors and colleagues, and made me receive an invitation to present at a management and technology congress at a renowned college in the region. This topic is very relevant today and I am happy to be a disseminator of such a relevant subject.

Just as you have given me an opportunity to have a better future through studies, I will endeavor to disseminate relevant information that relates management and environmental sustainability as tools for promoting environmental responsibility in organizations, so that in the future companies will not only be profitable, be instruments that protect the environment and guarantee the quality of life of future generations.

With love,

your dear niece
