Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: a person with a high opportunity cost of time.

Explanation:

To begin with, the opportunity cost of something is what the person sacrificies in order to be doing that thing. Therefore that when we talk about the opportunity cost of time it refers to what the person sacrificies in order to do something with that time. If the person has a high opportunity cost of time then the sacrificies that he made with that time will be higher than other person that has a low opportunity cost of time, meaning that the time spent by that person is less important than to the one that has a lot of time to spare.

Ludmilka [50]

Joe should decrease his consumption of crackers and his marginal utility from crackers will  increase and also  increase his consumption of cheese and his marginal utility from cheese will decrease .

<h3>What happens to marginal utility when consumption decreases?</h3>

According to the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility, the additional utility derived from increasing consumption declines with each additional increase in consumption level.

What happens to marginal utility when consumption increases?

According to the law of declining marginal utility, when consumption rises, the marginal utility gained from each extra unit decreases, all other things being equal.

Why does marginal utility decrease as more is consumed?

  • Consumers will only purchase more of a specific good if the price drops since they get less satisfaction from consuming more units of that good.
  • Thus, the law of diminishing marginal value contributes to the understanding of the law of demand.

Determine the single plantwide factory overhead rate, using each of the following allocation bases: (a) direct labor hours and (
Fofino [41]

Answer and Explanation:

1.

The direct labor overhead rate using the direct labor hours is shown below:-

Direct labor overhead rate = Total overheads ÷ Direct labor hours

= $220,800 ÷ 1,725

= $128

b. The machine hour overhead rate using the machine hours is

= Total overhead ÷ Machine hours

= $220,800 ÷ 4,600

= $48

2.

The factory overhead costs using direct labor hour is

Particulars             Automobile       Valve        Wheels        Total

                                bumpers           covers

Direct labor            

hours                        730                 480                515

Overhead rate         $128               $128              $128

Total                        $ 93,440        $61,440        $65,920     $220,800

For determining the total overhead we simply multiply the direct labor hours with overhead rate.

The factory overhead costs using machine hour is

Particulars             Automobile       Valve        Wheels        Total

                                bumpers           covers

Machine hours          1,970               1,270         1,360

Overhead rate            $48                  $48              $48

Total overhead        $94,560         $60,960    $65,280      $220,800

For determining the total overhead we simply multiply the machine hours with overhead rate.
