Answer:

1) You should go home and watch TV.

Explanation:

Since you value seeing the play $10, then you should leave the theater and go to your house to watch TV since that has a higher value for you ($12).

We are talking about opportunity costs here. Opportunity costs are the extra costs or benefits lost from choosing one activity or investment over another. In this case the opportunity costs are:

  • watch the play = $10
  • watch TV = $12
  • read a book = $8

Since watching TV is more valuable to you, then that is what you should be doing.

ABC Co. uses a perpetual inventory system and uses the FIFO cost flow assumption. During the month, it had two sales. Calculate
Free_Kalibri [48]

The cost of goods sold in dollars for the first sale made on Jan. 10, using FIFO, is <u>$141</u>.

<h3>What is the FIFO method?</h3>

FIFO means First-in, First-out.  

The FIFO inventory method assumes that the Jan. 10 sales of 11 units were made from goods in stock on January 1 and the purchase on Jan. 5.

Using FIFO under the perpetual inventory system, the cost of goods sold on Jan. 10 is calculated as follows:

<h3>Question Completion Data and Calculations:</h3>

Jan 1 Beginning Inventory 8 at $12= $96

Jan 5 Purchase 12 at $15= $180

Jan 25 Purchase 10 at $18= $180

Jan 10 Sale 11 units x $50 each

Jan 30 Sale 3 units x $55 each

Cost of goods sold on Jan. 10 using FIFO = 141 (8 x $12 + 3 x $15)

Thus, the cost of goods sold in dollars for the first sale made on Jan. 10, using FIFO, is <u>$141</u>.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

The answer is: There was no consumer surplus in this situation.

Explanation:

consumer surplus refers to the difference between the maximum amount a consumer is willing to pay for a good or service and the actual price of the good or service.

In this case there was no consumer surplus, since Stacey was willing to pay only $2 for a bottle of mineral water and its price was $2.25, so she didn't buy it.

Cups of coffee and donuts are complementary. Both have inelastic demand. A hurricane destroys half of the coffee bean crop. Use
Nadya [2.5K]

Explanation:

<u>a.what happens to the price of coffee beans?</u>

In this case, when there is a phenomenon like a hurricane that destroys half the harvest, the supply of coffee beans consequently decreases, the quantity decreases and the price increases.

<u>b. What happens to the price of a cup of coffee? What happens to the total expenditure on cups of coffee?</u>

When the price of the main input for the production of coffee cups increases and the supply decreases, it appears as an increase in the price of a cup of coffee and a decrease in the amount of coffee cups available on the market.

As they have an inelastic demand, coffee cups with a higher price correspond to an increase in total coffee expenses.

<u>c.What happens to the price of a cup of donuts? What happens to the total expendiure on donuts?</u>

In this case, donuts and coffee are complementary, so when there is an increase in the price of coffee and a decrease in the quantity demanded, there is also a decrease in the demand for donuts. So if the demand for donuts decreases, their price also decreases and the total expenditure on donuts decreases.
