How did the presence of north-to-south flowing rivers in the U.S. affect its development?

History
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago
4 0
The presence of north-to-south flowing rivers in the US affected its development by creating a economic bond between the North and the South, which some believe stemmed the onset of the Civil War until the creation of the railroad. Take Chicago, for example. Chicago existed as an agricultural hub where farm goods from the Midwest would go before making their way to larger markets. Before the Civil War, those goods traveled South down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and then were sold at New Orleans. This led the Western half of the US to look warily at Civil War because it would directly impact their ability to conduct trade. However, in the 1850s and 60s, Northern manufacturers began building railroads from Northern cities to Chicago, which artificially redirected the flow of farm goods to the East. Now, free from fearing an end of trade, Western politicians were more likely to approve of the Civil War.

Problem Set 3.2
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Fixed costs do not change as a result of a change in the production amount but variable costs do. So long as the item changes as a result of production, it is a variable cost.

1. Rent ⇒ Fixed

Once rent is paid, it will not change regardless of the quantity produced.

2. Thread ⇒ Variable

In an apparel shop like this one, more thread is needed to produce more clothes so this is a variable cost.

3. Buttons ⇒ Variable.

More buttons are needed for more clothes to be made.

4. Wages ⇒ Variable

Wages will change if more clothes need to be produced.

5. Electricity ⇒ Variable

Cost will change if more clothes are manufactured because more electricity will be used.

6. Cloth ⇒Variable

7. Equipment Rent ⇒ Fixed

This will not change regardless of production level just like rent.

8. Shipping Costs ⇒ Variable Cost

More clothes means more shipping costs to transport them.

9. Insurance ⇒ Fixed cost

10. Property Taxes ⇒ Fixed cost

This does not change regardless of production level as it is based on the property, not production.
