Michael is maximizing utility by consuming three colas at $3 a piece and four hot dogs. The last cola gave him 300 units of util
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

C. $5

Explanation:

Marginal utility is the benefit gained from consuming an additional unit of a product or service.

According to the question, Michael is maximizing utility when Marginal Utility / Price of colas is equal to Marginal Utility / Price of hotdogs. Marginal utility can thus be found by solving the following equation for X (the price of hot dog)

MU/P of Colas = MU/P of hot dogs

300/3 = 500/X

3/300 = X/500

X = (3/300) x 500

X = 0.01 x 500

X = 5

Hence, the price of each hot dog is $5.

Suppose investment is $1,100 billion, private saving is $1,050 billion, and capital inflow from abroad is $100 billion. Solve th
Sauron [17]

Anoveoswer:

The government deficit is $150 billion

Explanation:

Current Account (CA)  = Savings(S) -Investment(I).

Current account (CA)  is also conventionally defined as (X-M) (value of exports – value of imports) + Net income from abroad. (R)

CA = (X-M) + (R)

In this case CA= $1050 billion - $1100 billion

                      CA= -$50 billion

Therefore CA = (X-M) + (R)

           - $50 billion = x + $100 billion

       X-M= -$100 billion + -$50 billion=  -$150 billion

Novak’s Market recorded the following events involving a recent purchase of inventory: Received goods for $112000, terms 2/11, n
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct

Explanation:

The payment is made during the discount period of 11 days so the 2% discount rate would be applicable.

Goods purchased =   $112,000

Goods returned = $2,200

Discount =   (Goods purchased - goods returned) × 2%

               = ($112,000 - $2,200) × 2%

               = $2,196

Net purchase = Goods purchased - returned - Discount

                       = $112,000 - $2,200 - $2,196

                       = $107,604

Total inventory cost = Net purchase + Freight cost

                                 = $107,604 + $400

                                 = $108,004

Therefore, company’s inventory increased by $108,004.
