Property rights are the right of the government to own, use, and dispose of resources in an economy.

motikmotik

The statement above is false.

Property rights allude to the hypothetical and lawful responsibility for property by people and the capacity to decide how such property is utilized. In numerous nations, including the United States, people for the most part practice private property rights – the privileges of private people to collect, hold, delegate, lease or offer their property. In financial matters, property rights shape the reason for all market trade, and the allotment of property rights in a general public influences the productivity of asset utilize.

The cob Douglas production function is given by Q(K,L)=AK^1.4*L^1.6

Alexeev081 [22]

Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

$Q(K,L)=AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } .$

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

$Q(tK,tL)=A(tK)^{1.4} (tL)^ {1.6 } .$

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

$Q(tK,tL)=At^{1.4}K^{1.4} t^ {1.6 }L^ {1.6 } .$

This implies that:

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4} \times t^ {1.6 }(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4 + 1.6}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Simplify the exponent of t to get;

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{3}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3

Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L}=3AK^{1.4}L^{1.6}$

Verifying from the left:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =K(1.4AK^{0.4} L^{1.6}) + L(1.6AK^{1.4} L^{0.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =1.4(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6}) + 1.6(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =(1.4 + 1.6)(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =3(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

M7_IND4. Andre Greipel is the owner of a small company that produces heart rate monitors. The annual demand is for 2,250 heart r

Stolb23 [73]

Answer :

a) Economic Production Quantity = 1,612 monitors

b) Number of setups = 1.4

c) Total cost = $972.12 per year

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

a) Economic Production Quantity = sqrt((2 × annual demand × set up cost) ÷ carrying cost × (1 - daily demand ÷ daily production))

=sqrt((2 × 2,250 × $350) ÷ $0.80 × (1 - 35 ÷ 140))

= 1,620.19

= 1,621 monitors

b) Number of setups = Annual demand ÷ Economic production quantity

= 2,250 ÷ 1,621

= 1.3880

= 1.4

c) Formula of Total cost = Carrying cost + Annual setup cost

Carrying cost=(Economic production quantity ÷ 2) × Carrying cost × (1 - daily demand ÷ daily production)

= (1,612 ÷ 2)× $0.80 × (1 -35 ÷ 140)

= $486.30

Annual setup cost = (Annual demand ÷ Economic production quantity) × setup cost

= (2,250 ÷ 1,621) × $350

= $485.812

So, Total cost = $486.30 + $485.812

= $972.12 each year

We simply applied the above formulas

Setler [38]

The question is incomplete as it is missing the figures. The complete question is,

Mercer, Inc. provides the following data for 2019:

Net Sales Revenue 598000

Cost of Goods Sold 350000

The gross profit as a percentage of net sales is ________. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 0.4147 or 41.47%

Explanation:

The gross profit is a profit earned by a business through its trading activity. It is calculated by deducting the cost of goods sold from the net sales revenue and it is the profit earned by a business before deducting any operating and non operating expenses of the business.

Gross profit = Net Sales - Cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = 598000 - 350000 = $248000

The gross profit as a percentage of net sales is,

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = Gross profit / Net Sales

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 248000 / 598000

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 0.4147 or 41.47%

tatiyna

Answer:

1. c) b>d

d) c>g

2. No dominant strategy equilibrium is also a Nash equilibrium.

Explanation:

Payoff matrix are used in business as it represent the possible outcomes of the decisions made. In the given scenario player 1 and player 2 have different outcomes based on the game matrix. The player 1 will get best possible payoff when he falls in Top Left matrix. This is dominant strategy which must be Nash equilibrium.
