Answer: Option(c) is correct.

Explanation:

The long run aggregate supply(LRAS) curve is vertical as resource prices eventually rise and fall with product prices.

When there is an increase in the price level of the output, so in the long run this will also result in an increases in the prices of the factors of production.

Hence, aggregate supply curve in the long run is vertical.

Vertical LRAS also shows that whatever change happen in the aggregate demand has a temporary impact on the level of output. Factors such as capital, labor, technology impact the LRAS because it was assumed that everything is used optimally.

Suppose Lisa's utility function is 4XY, where X is the consumption of beer and Y is consumption of pizza. For this utility funct

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Bundle 1: Beer = 2; Pizza = 6

Bundle 2: Beer = 3; Pizza = 4

Bundle 3: Beer = 4; Pizza = 3

Bundle 4: Beer = 12; Pizza = 1

Explanation:

Given that;

Lisa utility function UF(X,Y) = 4XY

where;

X = beer

Y = Pizza

$MU_X = 4Y$

$MU_Y = 4X$

The utility level = 48

so, UF(X,Y) = 4XY

putting different values of X (i.e beer ) given to us in this equation, we can calculate the values of Y(i.e pizza) to fulfill the utility

So; when X (beer) = 2

48 = 4×2×Y

48 = 8Y

Y = 48/8

Y = 6

Thus, Bundle 1: Beer = 2; Pizza = 6

when X (beer) = 3

48 = 4×3×Y

48 = 12 Y

Y = 48/12

Y = 4

Thus; Bundle 2: Beer = 3; Pizza = 4

when X (beer) = 4

48 = 4×4×Y

48 = 16 Y

Y = 48/16

Y = 3

Thus; Bundle 3: Beer = 4; Pizza = 3

when X(beer) = 12

48 = 4×12×Y

48 = 48 Y

Y = 48/48

Y = 1

Thus; Bundle 4: Beer = 12; Pizza = 1

For high school graduation, Ryan’s family is giving him a choice between two presents that are both worth $900. He can choose ei

yulyashka [42]

Answer: The Mexican trip with his best friends

Explanation:

Ryan cannot choose both options and thus has to make a decision of which option to take. Therefore he automatically sacrifices the other option. This type of decision is relevant and is known as a relevant cost. Relevant costs are costs that differ between alternatives, and thus influence the decision that you will make.

Opportunity cost is a type of relevant cost. This is the option that is given up / sacrificed when one option (laptop) is chosen over another (Mexican trip). In this case the opportunity cost is the Mexican trip when the laptop is chosen.

Cr Trade Payables $13,020

Dr Work In Progress $9,742

Cr Material Inventory $9,742

Explanation:

Dr Material Inventory $13,020

Cr Trade Payables $13,020

The material sent to production or manufacturing team would be recorded as increase in the work in progress by the value of the material issued which is $9,742 (211*$19 + 273*$21).

Dr Work In Progress $9,742

Angelo invested $4,000 into two accounts. One account paid 4% interest and the other paid 9% interest. He earns 6% interest on t

inn [45]

Answer:

$2,400 was placed in the account earning 4%, and $1,600 was placed in the account earning 9%

Explanation:

In this case, we have two unknowns, so in order to be solved, we need to find two equations.

We know that amount 1, that we call x, plus amount 2, we call y, is 4000.

x + y = 4000

Also we know, when we add the interest earned on amount 1 to the interest earned on amount 2, the total interest is 6% of 4000, it means: 240

0.04x+0.09y=240

So, we have two equations with two unknowns

x + y = 4000

0.04x+0.09y=240

That we can solve for any method we know. We will use substitution. Lets clear from first equation the unknown x.

x=4000-y

Then, we substitute in second equation

0.04(4000-y)+0.09y=240

And we solve:

160-0.04y+0.09y=240

0.05y=240-160

y=80/0.05=1600

Now we simply plug this into our first equation and solve for x

x+y=4000

x+1600=4000

x=4000-1600

x=2400

So, $2,400 was placed in the account earning 4%, and $1,600 was placed in the account earning 9%

Which one of the following would not be considered an advantage of the corporate form of organization?a. Limited liability of ow

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Disadvantage of Corporate Form of Organization:

d. Government regulation

Explanation:

In recent times, government regulation of businesses appears to be regarded as a disadvantage of the corporate form of organizations. Governments intervene and regulate corporate entities whenever they fail to be self-regulatory. But, the regulations may appear to be so much that the corporate form of organization now looks like a disadvantage. Given the many corporate scandals, collapses, and misapplications of resources by corporate entities that have become the order of the day, government regulation is very important. Without government regulation, many corporate bodies will not be acting in the public interest. This is more so with public entity corporate organizations with diverse stakeholders and corporate managers who act as if they were running their own autonomous governments.
