Dovator [93]

Answer:

$16.50

Explanation:

Note: The complete question is attached as picture below

We know that there is a total of 90 units of oil and 30 units is consumed in period 0.

So, in period 1, the consumption amount will be = 90-30=60 units.

So, Q1 = 192 - 8P

For 60 units, the price will be 60 = 192 - 8P

8P = 192 - 60

8P = 132

P = 132 / 8

P = 16.5

So, the price in period 1 is $16.50

Thane Company is interested in establishing the relationship between electricity costs and machine hours. Data have been collect

dangina [55]

Answer:

The correct option : B. Cost = $ 130.00 + $ 5.90 x Machine - hours

Explanation:

Let's use the following method to solve the given problem

Now applying the high-low method of cost estimation,

High => November, 5,300 machine hours

Low => March, 2,300 machine hours

Arranging it in a simultaneous equations for total cost:

We can let fixed cost per month to be F, and the variable cost per machine -hour be V, and the number of machine-hours be Q.

Therefore

Total cost = F + VQ

High => F + 5,300Q = $ 31,400

Low => F + 2,300Q = $ 13,700

Subtracting Low from High, we have 3,000Q = $ 17,700 or Q = $ 5.90 per machine hour ................equation one

F = $ 13,700 - ( 2,300 x $ 5.90) = $ 130......................................................................equation two

Labor-augmenting (improving) technology causes which of the following? (i) The marginal productivity of labor increases. (ii) Th

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Answer to this is both option (i) and option (iii).

Explanation:

Change in technology generally affects the change in productivity as well as the change in labor demand. In the case of Labor-augmenting (improving) technology, it is found that the positive change in technology leads to the increasing marginal productivity of labor. This increase of marginal productivity of labor shifts the labor-demand curve towards right. Thus, Labor-augmenting (improving) technology causes marginal productivity of labor to increase which further leads to shifting of the labor-demand curve towards right.
