Answer:
Explanation:
Fixed costs - will remain similar no matter of output amount
Variable costs - vary with the change in output
Average cost=(Fixed cost(FC) + Variable cost(VC))/number of units produced
VC = VC per cup of coffee served *cup of coffee served in a week
Total Cost(TC)= FC+VC
Average cost=TC/Cup of coffee served in a week
1. Let's calculate for 2000 cups of coffee:
FC remain the same! = $1200
VC=0.22*2000= $440
TC=FC+VC= 1200+440= $1640
Average cost of 1 cup of coffee= TC/#of cups=1640/2000=$0.82
2. Calculation for 2100 cups:
FC=1200
VC=0.22*2100=462
TC=1200+462=1662
Av cost=1662/2100=0.79
3. Calculation for 2200 cups:
FC=1200
VC=0.22*2200=484
TC=1200+484=1684
Av cost=1684/2200=0.77
As the number of cups increased from 2000 to 2100, the average cost per cup devreased 0.82 to 0.79. Then when number of cups increased to 2200, average cost decreased to 0.77. The reduction is due to the variable cost
Answer:
b. The ratio decreased
Explanation:
The current ratio is a financial performance measure that compares current assets to current liabilities, hence, in ascertaining the impact of the short-term borrowing on the current ratio, we would compute the current ratio before and after having taken the short term loan as shown thus"
current ratio=current assets/current liabilities
Before borrowing:
current ratio=$375,000/$150,000
current ratio=2.50
After borrowing:
current ratio=$375,000/($150,000+$75000)
current ratio=1.67(it has declined from earlier 2.50 to 1.67)
Answer:
Export
True
False
True
Explanation:
Free trade is a form of trade policy where there are no restrictions to imports or exports of goods and services.
The price of meekers is $30 in Meekertown and $40 In the world. Because meeker's are cheaper in Meekertown, it means that Meekertown is efficient in the production of meekers. As a result, they would export meekers to the rest of the world. It would be cost efficient for the rest of the world to import from Meekertown.
Consumers in Meekertown are worse of because of the trade because the price of Meekers would rise.
Producers are better off because they would earn more profits from the sale of Meekers at the world price.
Free trade increases total surplus because of efficient production. If a country is inefficient in production, it would import . This would increase consumer surplus and if it is efficient in production, it would export increasing producer surplus.
