Answer:

The production possibilities frontier shifted inward.

Explanation:

Production possibilities frontier also called production possibilities curve

is based on the assumptions that the available resources in an economy can produce only two commodities, it depicts the number of commodity B the society can forgo in order to produce commodity B, given the available resources.

During the war the productive base of United States was affected negatively as some of the production inputs were destroyed and this reduced the GDP by 30%. Some of the factors that can shift the production possibilities curve inward is natural disaster, war, unemployment and limited money supply.

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

23.25%; 62.01%

Explanation:

(a) Amount received:

= No. of shares × selling price

= 100 × $43

= $4,300

Sales deposit = 60% of Amount received

                        = 0.6 × $4,300

                        = $2,580

Amount paid = No. of shares × Purchase price

                      = 100 × $49

                      = $4,900

Therefore, Loss = $4,900 - $4,300

                           = $600

(b) If buys at $27, then

Amount paid = $27 × 100

                     = $2,700

Profit = $4,300 - $2,700

         = $1,600

Loss on investment:

= ($600 ÷ $2,580) × 100

= 23.25%

Profit on investment:

= ($1,600 ÷ $2,580) × 100

= 62.01%

As the owner of a party store, you have decided to lower the price for all balloons this month. What do you expect to happen?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Quantity demanded for balloons will increase.

Explanation:

According to the law of demand, there is an inverse relationship between the price of the commodity and the quantity demanded for that commodity.

This means that if there is an increase in the price of a good then as a result the quantity demanded for that good decreases and on the other hand if there is a fall in the price of a good then as a result the quantity demanded for that good increases.

Therefore,

Fall in the price of balloons will lead to increase the quantity demanded for balloons.

Sheridan Company uses job order costing for its brand new line of sewing machines. The cost incurred for production during 2019
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

$1,440 per machine

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per machine is shown below:

= Total cost ÷ number of machine completed

where,

Total cost = Material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead applied cost + beginning work in process cost - ending work in process cost

= $15,000 + $11,000 + $7,000 + $11,000 - $8,000

= $36,000

And, the number of machine completed is 25

So, the cost per machine is

= $36,000 ÷ 25 machines

= $1,440 per machine

Bess [88]
<span>When buying any item in most stores, you are charged sales tax. Retailers, even smaller businesses are charged taxes for running their business. Businesses are able to pass on part of the burden to their paying customers in way of sales tax. So when you see an item marked as 99 cents, you will be paying slightly more than a dollar in almost all cases.</span>
