Shawn renounce to less goods than Sue when producing donuts.

This meas, Shawn has a comparative advantage in the production of donuts as their cost from the economic point of view are lower.

For example, if Sue produce 10 Donuts, but to produce donuts resing to produce 20 of other goods, each donut has an opportunity cost of 2

While Shawn can produce 8 donuts and resing to produce 8 of other goods:

each donut has an opportunity cost of 1

Therefore, is better for the overall economy to Shawn produce donuts and trade with Sue for the other good.

Pierce currently has $10,000. What was the value of his money five years ago if he has earned 5 percent interest each year?. . .

Vladimir [108]

Amount = $10000
Let us assume the principal = x
Amount of interest = 5%
Time = 5 years
Then
x (1 + i)^t = 10000
x(1 + 0.05)^5 = 10000
x(1.05)^5 = 10000
1.28x = 10000
x = 10000/1.276281
= 7835.26
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B".
