Answer:

profit maximizing output is 4; $28

Explanation:

Noel’s firm charges the market price for window washing jobs = $30/job

Marginal cost for the 5th unit of output:  

= Total cost from 5th unit - Total cost from 4th unit

= $129 - $92

= $37

At 5th level of output, the marginal cost is greater than the market price for window washing jobs.

Therefore, the profit maximizing output is 4.

Profit = (market price × output) - Total cost

        = ($30 × 4) - 92

        = $120 - $92

        = $28

Courts Distributors needed two hundred compact refrigerators on a rush basis. It contacted Eastinghouse Corporation, a manufactu
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Courts Distributors and Eastinghouse Corporation

Dispute over Contract Price

The two parties have a legal contract.  The contract was established when Courts requested Eastinghouse to send the refrigerators and bill later.

The exact price for the contract is in dispute.  This dispute can be resolved between the parties.  Reference to the market price will help resolve the dispute, otherwise, the parties may seek alternative dispute resolutions, like litigation, mediation, or arbitration.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Eastinghouse's invoice price for the refrigerators = $140,000

Courts' adopted market price = $120,000

b) Since Courts' reference to the price is with regard to the wholesale market price, it may be that Eastinghouse quoted the retail price instead.  Since Courts is a distributor, it has the right to be charged a wholesaler's price and not a retailer's.  Therefore, we can conclude that after due reference to the prevailing market price of similar refrigerators, the two parties may agree to a price of $120,000 or a little higher.

A. The size of the factory is fixed.

We know there will always be costs of rent and etc when running a business so even in the short run there is fixed costs. The output is always variable depending on the number of workers. The number of workers is also not fixed, but the size of the factory is because you cant just get up and move your business over night, it costs money and is a lot of work.

A market system tends to restrict business risk to owners and investors. This results in which of the following benefits?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: d)Firms have to pay more to attract inputs, as these inputs have to share the risk.

Explanation: When the market system tries to put restriction on the business risk to owner and other investors , the firms have to give more payment to attract them to market business.

The chances of risk have have to be shared by both the parties so the owners or investors are going to indulge in the business when they gain some benefit e.g.-more payment.

Other options are incorrect because entrepreneurship will not be encouraged through this process. Incomes will not be distributed equally and neither the prudent risk management will be aimed.Thus, the correct option is option(d).
