The correct answer is C. Toyota, a Japanese car manufacturer, employs around 40,000 autoworkers in the United States.

Explanation:

Outsourcing is a common strategy in which a company or business hires an external party to deal with certain activities or functions, this means the company uses external or "outside" sources. This includes offshoring outsourcing that occurs as one company hires another company located in a different country or relocates part of the business countries outside the original country. Usually because in a different country the raw materials or labor are cheaper.

An example of this is "Toyota, a Japanese car manufacturer, employs around 40,000 autoworkers in the United States" because in this case the company Toyota transfers part of its business (outsourcing) and for doing this, it hires employees in a different country which means the outsourcing occurs in a different country or offshore.

Answer: True

Explanation:

Marginal benefit is the maximum amount that a consumer will be willing to pay for an extra product. It should be known that as consumption rises, the marginal benefit starts reducing.

The marginal cost is the extra cost that a producer incurs when an extra unit of a product is made. Economic decisions made by economic agents are typically based on marginal as it'll be possible to know the impact of an extra decision made on a variable.

Therefore, it is better to evaluate economic decisions at the marginal, where the decision has to be made as long as its marginal benefit exceeds its marginal cost, if not equal to its marginal cost.

Calculation for the total amount of indirect manufacturing cost incurred

First step is to find the fixed manufacturing overhead portion

Fixed manufacturing overhead portion=$3.00 *5000 units

Fixed manufacturing overhead portion =$15,000

Second step is to calculate the indirect manufacturing cost if 6,000 units are produced using this formula

Indirect manufacturing cost =Fixed manufacturing overhead portion

+ Variable portion

Let plug in the formula

Indirect manufacturing cost=$15,000 + ($1.30*6,000 units)

Indirect manufacturing cost=$15,000+$7,800

Indirect manufacturing cost=$22,800

Therefore the total amount of indirect manufacturing cost incurred is closest to $22,800
