Archy [21]3 years ago

Answer:

A perfectly competitive firm will minimize its losses by shutting down when: P < TFC at the profit-maximizing level of output. P < MC at the profit-maximizing level of output.

Explanation:

A firm will choose to implement a production shutdown when the revenue received from the sale of the goods or services produced cannot cover the variable costs of production. In this situation, a firm will lose more money when it produces goods than if it does not produce goods at all. Producing a lower output would only add to the financial losses, so a complete shutdown is required. If a firm decreased production it would still acquire variable costs not covered by revenue as well as fixed costs (costs inevitably incurred). By stopping production the firm only loses the fixed costs.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product

A supplier offers to produce part A for $7

Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A

Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows

Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)

= 20,000 units×$1

= 20,000×$1

= $20,000

Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000

A. Identify a profession b. In not more than 60 words, describe the "art" and "science" of such profession in (a).
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Comedy as a Profession is a great example.

Explanation:

The science of it is related to the psychology of what makes people laugh.

If studied, one would realize that there are certain things that are bound to make people laugh (all things being equal). An example is when a person makes fun of themself to an audience.

To explain this, scientists have stated that it is inherent in humans to laugh at the misfortune of others. However, this is just a theory and does not explain why we laugh at other kinds of comedy.

A plausible explanation (which is more recent in the parlance of psychology) is that people also laugh when certain expectations are defied in a very witty manner.

As a professional stand-up comedian, knowing all the rules and tricks is just one part of the coin. Being able to, either by practice or repeated efforts during practice, internalize these principles, practice them and effectively use them is the artistic part of the picture.

There those who are gifted naturally with a principle thought process that elicits laughter from others, would be termed hilarious. However, to make a living out of comedy, one would need to fully understand the principles and practice to deliver them as naturally as possible.

Another paradigm to the art of comedy is that, it has to be very witty. Wit many times may come with an element of suprise... a new angle that was previously "unthought" of.

Cheers!

Andru [333]

Answer:

People behavior with lump sum amount:

The experimental evidence shows that people always expect to be treated fairly. When people are treated unfairly, then they will reject the offer regardless of the value of money. Thus, the statement that "should not generalize the evident resulted from $10 experiment. When the size of money is large then people will react differently from the evidence" is false.
