Your small remodeling business has two work vehicles. One is a small passenger car used for job-site visits and for other genera

l business purposes. The other is a heavy truck used to haul equipment. The car gets 25 miles per gallon (mpg). The truck gets 10 mpg. You want to improve gas mileage to save money, and you have enough money to upgrade one vehicle. The upgrade cost will be the same for both vehicles. An upgraded car will get 40 mpg; an upgraded truck will get 12.5 mpg. The cost of gasoline is $3.30 per gallon. Calculate the annual fuel savings, in gallons, for the truck and car assuming both vehicles are driven 8,000 miles per year. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answer:

Annual savings= $924

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The car gets 25 miles per gallon (mpg). The truck gets 10 mpg. You want to improve gas mileage to save money, and you have enough money to upgrade one vehicle. The upgrade cost will be the same for both vehicles. An upgraded car will get 40 mpg; an upgraded truck will get 12.5 mpg. The cost of gasoline is $3.30 per gallon. Calculate the annual fuel savings, in gallons, for the truck and car assuming both vehicles are driven 8,000 miles per year.

Current cost= (8,000/25)*3.30 + (8,000/10)*3.30= $3,696

New cost= (8,000/40)*3.3 + (8,000/12.5)*3.3= $2,772

Annual savings= 3,696 - 2,772= $924

3. High-end pricing depends on the customer having which of the following perceptions?
djyliett [7]
<h2>More expensive products are better</h2>

Explanation:

According to psychological theory, whenever a customer sees a branded item, the next immediate thing that comes to his/her mind is the price and quality.

According to the customers point of view, a branded item will possess a good quality but the cost will be little higher when compared to the non-branded items.

So higher the price, customer feels that higher the quality.

All the other options feel right sometime but option 1 is the right answer.

Suppose that the production of $500,000 worth of steel in the United States requires $100,000 worth of iron ore. The U.S. nomina
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The effective rate of protection for the U.S. steel industry is approximately 17.5%

Explanation:

Mathematically, the effective rate of protection is calculated as follows;

e = (n-ab)/(1-a)

where n is the nominal tariff rate on the final product , a is the ratio of the value of the imported input to the value of the finished product and b is the nominal tariff rate on the imported input

Mathematically;

a = value of iron ore/value of steel = 100,00/500,000 = 1/5 = 0.2

From the question, we can see that nominal tariff rate for steel n = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

The nominal rate for iron ore b = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

So we substitute all of these into the equation of e above

e = {0.15-0.2(0.05)}/(1-0.2) = (0.15-0.01)/0.8 = 0.14/0.8 = 0.175 which is same as 17.5%
