Answer:

The marginal product for the third worker is 150 packets

Explanation:

Marginal product is the change in the output of a firm as a result of an additional input or factor of production. These additional inputs may include materials, labor etc.

The Marginal product for the third worker can therefore be calculated as

change in Total product / change in labour

change in total product = New packets of senior portrait -  old packets of senior portraits ( 600 - 450) =   150  

change in labour ( 3 - 2 ) = 1  

150/1 = 150 packets

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.

Explanation:

The computation as per given question is given below:-

Variable cost per unit

= $48 + $65

= $113

Contribution margin per unit

= $240 - $113

= $127

Unit Monthly sales

= 1,500 + 240

= 1,740

Total contribution margin

= 1,740 × $127

= $220,980

Total contribution margin

= 1,500 × $192

= $288,000

So, change in total contribution margin and net operating income

= $288,000 - $220,980

= $67,020

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.

What is the range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food? From _______ to _______ .
dezoksy [38]

The answer is explained in detail below

Explanation:

a_{KC} = 2

a_{LC} = 2

a_{KF} = 3

a_{LF} = 1

Labor, L = 2000; Capital, K = 3000  

Labour constraint,

2Q_{c} + Q_{F} \leq 2000

Capital constraint ,

2Q_{c} + 3Q_{F} \leq 3000  

Solving the equation further, we get

Q_{F} \leq 2000 - 2Q_{C}

Q_{F} \leq 1000 - \frac{2}{3} Q_{C}

  • The range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food is  2/3 and 2
  • Low cloth production → economy will use relatively more labor to  produce cloth → opportunity cost of cloth is 2/3rd units of food.
  • High cloth  production → economy dips on labor → taking capital away from food  production → raising opportunity cost of cloth to 2 units of food.  
  • If relative price of cloth lies between 2/3 and  2 units of food, the economy  produces both goods.
  • If the price of cloth decreases below 2/3 → complete  specialization in food production → low compensation for producing cloth
  • If the price of cloth  rises above 2 → complete specialization in cloth production → low compensation for producing  food

Suppose that consumer income increases and that ground meat is an inferior good. Which of the following will occur in the market
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

d. Market clearing price will fall, and equilibrium quantity will fall.

Explanation:

Inferior goods are those goods which do not behave normally to market.

As with increase in consumer spending capacity, their demand decreases.

Accordingly with decrease in demand , the prices will fall.

Thus, either Statement b is correct or statement d.

Since demand and price both tend to fall, the equilibrium quantity will fall for the same, as the demand will be low, the equilibrium quantity will fall to meet the demand level.

Thus, Statement D is correct.

A bank run involves:
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": large numbers of depositors withdrawing their deposits within a short period of time.

Explanation:

A bank run is a situation in which account holders massively withdraw their funds under the fear the financial institution will lose its liquidity. The situation gets to a point in which the bank is at risk of sensing all its reserves and fail to provide all its clients the money they deposited.

In the U.S. financial institutions with deposits between $16 and $122.3 million must have a minimum reserve of 3%. When the deposits exceed $122.3 million the minimum reserve increases to 10%. The rest of the money is reinvested by banks.
