Answer:

The least sum they could have is 15 dollars (n=1).

Explanation:

Let S and J represent the number of dollars held by Sam and Janet, respectively. Let  

.. n = S/13 = J/2  

Then  

.. S = 13n  

.. J = 2n  

.. S + J = 13n +2n = 15n > 10 . . . . .

we know that from question, the sum of their amount is more than $10  

therefore, The least sum they could have is 15 dollars (n=1).

In an eight-hour day Nicolas can catch 24 pounds of fish or he can repair 15 cars. In an eight-hour day Alejandro can catch 27 p
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here Nicolas will gain comparative advantage only when he is selling the good he is specializing in and he would specialize in that good which would have lower opportunity cost for him. So the first step that we have to do here is to find out for which good Nicolas will have lower opportunity cost.

For Nicolas who in 8 hours can either catch 24 pound of fish or repair 15 cars,

the opportunity cost for catching 1 fish is = 15/24 = .625

the opportunity cost for repairing 1 car is = 24/15 = 1.6

So from the above observation we can say that for Nicolas catching fish has lower opportunity cost for him , so he should specialize in catching fish.

Therefore the term of trade for Nicolas would be

1 fish = .625 cars ,

if he can catch and sell 100 units worth of fish then he would have to give up 62.5 cars and then only he will gain from trade,

1 x 100 fish = .625 x 100

100 fish = 62.5 cars.

Month of sale collection

45% × June = 45% × 170,000 = 76500

=  $174,500.

Is it reasonable to assume that treasury bonds will provide higher returns in recessions than in booms?
Annette [7]
It is indeed reasonable.We know this because interest rates rise when the economy is booming and fall when the economy goes into a recession which is known as procyclic movement. What happens is that during recessions the government usually tries to keepcinterest rates low in order to stimulate investment. It is good because bond prices <span>and interest rates go in opposite directions so bond prices will rise when recession starts. </span>
