34kurt

Answer:

$2

Explanation:

Given that

The fixed cost = $100

Cost on wool if 10 sweater are made in a month = $15

Cost on wool if 11 sweater are made in a month = $17

Since it involves no other cost

Types of imperfect competition
hoa [83]
  • Monopolistic competition: A situation in which many firms with slightly different products compete. Production costs are above what may be achieved by perfectly competitive firms, but society benefits from the product differentiation.
  • Monopoly: A firm with no competitors in its industry. A monopoly firm produces less output, has higher costs, and sells its output for a higher price than it would if constrained by competition. These negative outcomes usually generate government regulation.
  • Oligopoly: An industry with only a few firms. If they collude, they form a cartel to reduce output and drive up profits the way a monopoly does.
  • Duopoly: A special form of Oligopoly, with only two firms in an industry.
  • Monopsony: A market with a single buyer and many sellers.
  • Oligopsony: A market with a few buyers and many sellers.

Accounting professors earn more than English professors at most universities. Explain this with a supply and demand graph.
GenaCL600 [577]
I will assume here (since I don't have more information) that each school needs one English and one Accounting professor, but that more people are ready to teach English than accounting (this assumption might be wrong, but it's what  think)

therefore the supply is bigger for the English professors than for the Accounting professors -this means that the accounting professors can ask for bigger salary (the bigger the supply, the smaller the prize)
