The slope of a PPF is the opportunity cost which shows the units of goods that must be sacrificed to gain more and more units of the other good.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

This implies that bus is an inferior good and car is a normal good.

Explanation:

Initially, Jim's income was $5000 a year.

As his income increases to $60,000 a year, he decides to buy a car instead of using the bus.

In other words, with the increase in income, the demand for traveling by bus is declining.

This implies that it is an inferior good.

The demand for the car is increasing with an increase in income.

So, the car is a normal good.

An inferior good can be defined as a product that shows negative elasticity. This means with an increase in income its demand declines an vice versa.

A normal good can be defined as a product that shows positive income elasticity. That is, its demand increases with rise in income and vice versa.

Productivity per unput dollar=Fees charged from clients/total cost to firm

There are 3 options:

1. Using current software:

Av time=40 min

Researcher's cost=$2 a min

Total cost=40*2=80

Productivity per dollar input=Fees charged from clients/total cost to firm= 400/80=$5

Using company A's software

Av time=30min

Cost of reducing av time=$3.5

Researcher's cost=$2

Total =30*2+3.5=63.50

Productivity per dollar input=400/63.5=6.3

Using company B's software

Av time = 28 min

Cost of reducing av time=$3.6

Researcher's cost=$2

Total cost=28*2+3.6=59.6

Onslow Co. purchased a used machine for $178,000 cash on January 2. On January 3, Onslow paid $2,840 to wire electricity to the

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

First we must determine the total cost of the machine:

total cost = $178,000 + $2,480 + $1,160 = $181,640

Now we must find the depreciable value:

depreciable value = total cost - salvage value = $181,640 - $14,000 = $167,640

since the machine is going to be used for six years, the depreciation expense per year = depreciable value / useful life

depreciation expense per year = $167,640 / 6 years = $27,940

if it was depreciated during 5 years, the total depreciation expense would be: $27,940 per year x 5 years = $139,700

If the machine was depreciated before time, and sold only at its salvage value, Onslow Corp. should report a loss of $27,940.
