Answer: Under the given circumstances , the following would be a positive externality for the global environment:<em><u> </u></em><u><em>Fewer people move from rural to urban areas, reducing urban sprawl.</em></u>

Urban sprawl can lead to several negative externalities such as : pollution, exploitation of natural resources at an exponential rate, unemployment etc.

Therefore, if fewer people move from rural to urban areas, this will reduce urban sprawl and further every other negative externality associated with it.

<u><em>The correct option is (A)</em></u>

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The answer is: Treetopplers's wood production is not included in the GDP

Explanation:

The GDP includes all the domestic production of final and legal goods and services.

The value of final goods is included, but not the parts that go into them (intermediate goods). In this case, the wood Treetopplers produce is used by other companies (e.g. Buildit and Partners) to build final goods such as new houses. So the wood is an intermediate good.

patriot [66]

Answer:

These are the options for the question:

a. Gantter

b. Apptivo

c. Microsoft Project

d. Smartsheet

And this is the correct answer:

a. Gantter

Explanation:

Gantter is online, cloud-based, and very complete, it would be the best option for Mauricio. Smartsheet is also cloud-based but is a bit more simple, and it is not as well-reviewed.

Apptivo and Microsoft Project are not cloud-based, instead, they have to be downloaded, thus, would not meet the first requirement that Maurio is looking for.

Suppose that investment is $130 billion, saving is $110 billion, government expenditure on good and services is $120 billion, ex
Natali5045456 [20]

The amount of tax revenue is $130 billion and teh governemnt budget balance is negative 10 billion

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given

I = 130 billion, S = 110 billion, G = 120 billion, X = 210 billion and M = 220 billion, we need to derive tax revenue = T??

At equilibrium; S+T +M = I+X+G or

110 + T + 220 = 130 + 210 + 120 or  

T + 330 = 460, implies tax revenue (T) = $130 billion

the government budget is calculated as follows:

Government budget = G-T = 120 minus 130 = -10 billion

nekit [7.7K]

Answer: $222,800

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $427,000

Cost of goods sold (all variable) = $173,400

Total variable selling expense = $21,200

Total fixed selling expense = $18,900

Total variable administrative expense = $9,600

Total fixed administrative expense = $36,300

Variable expenses:

= Cost of goods sold + Variable selling expense + Variable administrative expense

= $173,400 + $21,200 + $9,600

= $204,200

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses

                                  = $427,000 - $204,200  

                                 = $222,800
