Answer:
Yes, Hazel needs to pay extra $700
Explanation:
As per pre-existing duty rule, a person is obligated to perform his duty at the consideration agreed upon initially. Any modification to the contract is void.
Exceptions to this rule:
- As per new contract, if the person undertaking his duty hires another person to perform the work so as to complete it in time, then modifications are valid and enforceable.
- Modifications are valid in case of unforeseen contingencies like war, recession, change in economic conditions and strikes.
In this case, Hazel agreed to pay $700 extra. Under pre-existing duty rule, she is not required to pay Eugene extra $700 but since Eugene took additional help exception to the rule applies and Hazel is obligated to pay $700 extra.

Explanation:
<u>a.what happens to the price of coffee beans?</u>
In this case, when there is a phenomenon like a hurricane that destroys half the harvest, the supply of coffee beans consequently decreases, the quantity decreases and the price increases.
<u>b. What happens to the price of a cup of coffee? What happens to the total expenditure on cups of coffee?</u>
When the price of the main input for the production of coffee cups increases and the supply decreases, it appears as an increase in the price of a cup of coffee and a decrease in the amount of coffee cups available on the market.
As they have an inelastic demand, coffee cups with a higher price correspond to an increase in total coffee expenses.
<u>c.What happens to the price of a cup of donuts? What happens to the total expendiure on donuts?</u>
In this case, donuts and coffee are complementary, so when there is an increase in the price of coffee and a decrease in the quantity demanded, there is also a decrease in the demand for donuts. So if the demand for donuts decreases, their price also decreases and the total expenditure on donuts decreases.

A
Explanation:
The country with a comparative advantage in the production of a good should export the good
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.
England
Comparative advantage in the production of scones = 1/50 = 0.02
Comparative advantage in the production of sweater = 50/1 = 50
Scotland
Comparative advantage in the production of scones = 2/40 = 0.05
Comparative advantage in the production of sweater = 40/2 = 20
England has a comparative advantage in the production of scones and should export scones
Scotland has a comparative advantage in the production of sweaters and should export sweaters
Answer:
$535,000
Explanation:
The computation of the Latham's basis in the building is shown below:
= The material cost + direct labor cost + worker pension cost + architectural fees + depreciation on equipment + interest paid during the year
= $300,000 + $150,000 + $5,000 + $15,000 + $25,000 + $40,000
= $535,000
It includes both direct and indirect cost
Since we have to compute for the building so we do not considered the purchase value of land and the loan amount
