Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3      

Explanation:

Data given and notation      

\bar X=5000 represent the sample mean      

s=800 represent the standard deviation for the sample      

n=16 sample size      

\mu_o =5600 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)      

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.      

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is lower than 5600, the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5600      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5600      

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:      

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)      

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic      

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:      

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

$380

Explanation:

Ziva's total cost of farming is composed of two different costs: explicit and implicit costs.

Explicit cost is an out-of-pocket cost that a person incurs to carry out a particular business activity. It is sort of, a business-related expense for which the business pays. In Ziva's case, it is $130, the cost of the seeds

Implicit costs are opportunity costs. An opportunity cost refers the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when opting for one alternative in preference of another. In our case, it amounts to $250($25*10 hours)

Thus, Ziva's cost of farming

= $130 +( $25*10) = $130 +$250 = $380

Assuming that the physical output (i.e., the actual quantity of all final goods and services) of all final goods and services re
joja [24]

Answer:

a) true

Explanation:

A rise in the general price level is called inflation and it affects the nominal value of the company's output. E.g. you sell pants and last year they sold at $10 and now since inflation rate is 10%, they sell at $11. But inflation only affects nominal values, it doesn't affect real values which are calculated using a base price of a certain year X, times the quantity sold. Following the example, your real output would not be $11 per pair of pants, instead it would still remain at $10 since the inflation is discounted.

Volgvan

Answer:

The value of the firm is $1,485,000

Explanation:

For computing the value of the firm, first, we have to compute the price per share which equals to

= Borrowed amount ÷ repurchase shares

= $220,000 ÷ 20,000

= $11 per share

Now, the value of the firm should be computed. The formula is used which is shown below:

= Price per share × Number of outstanding shares

= $11 × 135,000 shares

= $1,485,000

Hence, the value of the firm is $1,485,000
