Answer:

True

Explanation:

The production function is getting flatter since the marginal productivity of the 13th worker is lower than the marginal productivity of the 12th worker, e.g. the 12th worker produced 10 units per hour, the 13th worker only produces 9 units per hour.

The total cost curve will get steeper because the total cost of producing more goods will increase due to the lower marginal productivity of the 13th worker, e.g. since both workers earn $10 per hour, the units produced by the 12th worker will have a direct labor cost of $1 per unit, while the units produced by the 13th worker will have a direct labor cost of $1.11 per unit.

If a pair of shoes in the United States costs $45, and a pair of the exact same shoes is sold in Mexico for 430 pesos while the
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is profit of $2.3 by selling it in Mexico.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

In the United states Cost of shoes = $45

In Mexico, Cost of Shoes = 430 Pesos ( where $0.1100 = 1 pesos)

So, 430 Pesos = 430 × $0.1100 = $47.3

So, we can calculate the profit to sell in Mexico as follows:

Profit to sell in Mexico  = Sell price in Mexico - Sell price in US

= $47.3 - $45

= $2.3

So, the arbitrage opportunity exist by buying the shoes in Pesos and selling it in Mexico, one can make a profit of $2.3 per shoes.

Santa Fe purchased the rights to extract turquoise on a tract of land over a five-year period. Santa Fe paid $300,000 for extrac
melomori [17]

Answer:

The cost of depletion in the current year is $90,000

Explanation:

Santa Fe's current year cost of depletion=cost of rights*Turquoise extracted in the current year/total estimated turquoise to be extracted

cost of rights is $300,000

turquoise extracted in the current year is 1,500 pounds

total estimated turquoise to be extracted over a five-year period is 5000 pounds

cost of depletion in the current year=$300,000*1500/5000

                                                           =$ 90,000.00  

By extension profit for the year assuming no other costs were incurred is :

$200,000-$90,000=$110,000
