Answer:
a.Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other countries.
A person has an absolute advantage in production if it produces more quantities of the good when compared with other countries.
Georgeland produces more quantities of both food and clothes when compared to Alland, so it has absolute advantage in both activities .
The opportunity cost of georgeland in producing clothes = 36 / 18=2
The opportunity cost of georgeland producing food = 18 / 36 = 0.5
For Alland,
the opportunity cost of producing clothes = 32 / 16= 2
the opportunity cost of producing food = 16 / 32 = 0.5
Neither countries don't have a comparative advantage in the production of either clothes of food bedside they have the same opportunity costs in both activities.

Answer:
Inventory turnover in days = 43.59 days
Inventory turnover (No of times)= 8.37 times
Explanation:
<em>Inventory turnover days is the average length of time it takes a business to sell its inventory before replacement.</em>
Inventory turnover in days
= Average inventory /Cost of goods sold × 365 days
<em>Average inventory = (Opening Inventory + closing inventory)/2</em>
<em>Average inventory </em>
= (21,000 + 22,000)/2
= 21,500
<em>Inventory turnover in days</em>
(21,500/180,600) × 365 days
=43.597 days
Inventory turnover (No of times )
= Cost of goods sold/Average inventory
= 180,600/21,500
= 8.37 times
Answer:
Its operating expenses were $ 3.588 B
Explanation:
The operating ratio is the ratio of operating expense to the operating or revenue generated.
This ratio is used for comparison of results from the operations of various industries.
Given that the operating ratio of 78% and the operating revenue is $4.6B, the operating expense T may be computed as
78% = T/4.6 * 100%
T = 4.6 *.78
= $3.588 B
