Answer:
The correct answer is: Each country can consume at a point outside their production possibilities frontier.
Explanation:
A country is said to be specializing in the production of a good if it can produce the good at a lower opportunity cost. When countries produce the good they specialize in producing and trade with other countries. All the countries will be able to consume more.
The countries will produce on its production possibilities frontier at the intercept of the good they specialize in and consume at a point outside their production possibility frontier.
Answer:
a. Raw material discounts
b. Reduction of unit cost
c. Specialists
d. Better production methods
Explanation:
a. Corporations have various advantages over small businesses. Because they buy raw materials in bulk they are able to negotiate volume discount. This gives them more advantage over the small business who cannot buy in bulk.
b. A fall out from the above is reduction of unit cost or average cost, when discount is received it reduces the total cost of material and by implication the unit cost.
c. Because of their size and financial strength, corporation is able to attract qualified employees as opposed to small businesses that are limited by their financial position.
d. Corporations because of their financial strength are able to finance research with view to discovering a better production methods. This may be impossible to small businesses.
Solution:
Let the amount invested in scheme which yields 9% be x and amount invested in scheme which yields 13% be y.
x + y = 180000 --equation 1
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation 2
Balancing the equations, multiply equation 1 with 0.09 and equation 2 with 1,
0.09x + 0.09y = 16200 -equation 3
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation4
Subtracting equation 4 from 3,
-0.04y = -1800
y = 45000
Now putting value of y in equation 1,
x + 45000 = 180000
x = 135000
The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 9% = $135,000
The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 13% = $45,000
Answer:
Total unitary cost= $4,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Actual units= 800
Total fixed costs= 1,000*800= 800,000
UNitary variable cost= $4,000
Units increase= 200
<u>On unitary bases, variable costs remain constant. On the contrary, fixed costs vary at a unitary level. Now, the same amount of costs is divided by a larger number of units.</u>
<u></u>
Unitary fixed overhead= 800,000/1,000= $800
Total unitary cost= 4,000 + 800= $4,800
