Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In a competitive market, if production (and consumption) continues until the marginal benefit of one more unit equals marginal cost, then total surplus is maximized.

As for any extra unit produced

Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = Surplus

Marginal Benefit = Marginal cost = No Surplus / No loss

Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = loss

When your Marginal benefit is maximum and Marginal cost is minimum then the surplus will be maximized.

Most efficient situation in which benefit is maximum and the cost is minimum results in maximized surplus.

Suppose a technological improvement has lowered the cost of manufacturing cell phone batteries. This would lead to ___________ (

Julli [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: an increase; fall; substitutes; decrease; complements; increase.

Explanation:

Technological improvement has lowered the cost of producing cell phone batteries. This reduction in the cost of production will cause the price of cell phone batteries to decline. Since batteries are used as inputs in the cell phone. The reduction in the price of inputs means that the cost of production would decrease. The firms will be able to supply more at the same cost. The supply, as a result, will increase. The supply curve will shift to the right. The price of cell phones will decline.

Cell phones and landlines are substitutes. They can be used in place of each other. A decrease in the price of cell phones would cause the demand for landlines to decrease as the consumers will prefer a cheaper substitute.

The cell phones and applications, however, are use complements. They are used together. So when the price of cell phones decrease and its demand increase, the demand for cell phone applications will increase as well.

Victryl Company applies overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, Victryl estimates overhead to be $70

yan [13]

Answer:

correct option is a. $1,700 over head applied

Explanation:

given data

overhead = $700,000

machine hours = 200,000

direct labor hours = 35,000

Feb, direct labor hours = 5,000

Feb, machine hours = 10,000

Feb, actual overhead = $98,300

solution

we know overhead rate that is

overhead rate = $\frac{Budget overhead}{allocation base}$

overhead rate = $\frac{700000}{35000}$

overhead rate = $20 per hours

and in Feb for 5000 direct labor hour

overhead = 5000 × $20 = $100,000

so

over head applied = $100,000 - $98300

over head applied = $1700

so correct option is a. $1,700 over head applied
