ruslelena [56]

Answer:

units started less 200.

Explanation:

Unit at which the process is started on the beginning of January minus the closing inventory is the number of completed units in work in process when there is No beginning Work in process.

Using following formula we will calculate the Units completed in WIP.

Work in process Closing Inventory = Opening WIP + Addition during the period - Completion during the period

200 units = $0 + Addition during the period - Completion during the period

Completion during the period = Addition during the period - $200 units

In the absence of Beginning Inventory the the addition during the period is the number of unit at which the process is started.

Steven consumes only two goods, both of which are normal goods. He is currently maximizing his utility in consumption of both go
zzz [600]

Answer:

The answer is: remain the same

Explanation:

The marginal utility of a good or service is how much better we feel when consuming an extra unit of that good or service. For example if we are very thirsty, the marginal utility of consuming a can of Coke is very large, but once our thirst is quenched, an extra can of Coke will not provide use with that much satisfaction as before.

If the price of a substitute good increases, the marginal utility of the good whose price didn't change, will remain the same.

Let's go back to the Coke example. An extra can of Coke will give me 5 more satisfaction units (I'm assuming I can measure satisfaction) and an extra slice of pizza will give me 7 more units of satisfaction. If the price of Coke increases from 50 cents to $1, its marginal utility will decrease. I will buy more pizza because the satisfaction I get from drinking Coke is now smaller.
