Answer:
Option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
Here, shoes are normal goods as there is a positive relationship between the income level of the consumer and the quantity demanded for shoes. It can be seen that as the income of the consumer increases from $19,000 to $21,000 then as a result the quantity of pairs of shoes demanded increases from 9 to 11 pairs.

Answer:
If the span of management is wide, <u>Fewer</u> levels are needed, and the organization is <u>Flat</u>. If the span of management is narrow, <u>More</u> levels are needed, and the resulting organization is <u>Tall</u>.
Explanation:
Span of control is the number of personals working under a single Designation.
If their are greater number of employees working under a single designation then the hierarchy chart is wider in length, that's the reason we also say that the organization is flat. Due to these increased number of employees working under single designation, there is lower number of levels in such organization. It is also one of the main reason the employees turnover is very high because there are fewer chances of promotion in flat organizations. The number of candidates for the promotion are higher in the organization.
On the other hand, if their are lower number of employees working under a single designation then the hierarchy chart is taller in length, that's the reason we also say that the organization is flat. Due to these lower number of employees working under single designation, there is higher number of levels required in such organizations. It is also one of the main reason the employees turnover is very low because there are higher chances of promotion in tall organizations. The number of candidates for the promotion are fewer in the organization.
Answer:
keep producing in the short run but exit the industry or go out of business in the long run
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
A firm should shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost. But since the diner's price is greater than average variable cost, it should continue production.
A firm should exit the industry in the long run if price is less than average total cost. the diner's price is less than average total cost, so it should shut down in the long run
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": A and C.
Explanation:
Utility is the satisfaction or joy an individual perceives by consuming a given good or service. Marginal utility is the satisfaction perceived by consuming one more unit of a good or receiving a service one more time. Total utility is the aggregate utility as a result of adding the number of goods or services consumed.
<em>When marginal utility starts falling, total utility could still be rising since even if the consumer is not enjoying the same way the consumption of a good the individual is still adding more units to the consumption. However, there will a point in which the consumption of the good will not represent any satisfaction to the individual not adding more units anymore, thus, total utility starts dropping.</em>
