Answer: a) an increase in the Equilibrium price of "regular" cars.
Explanation:
It is stated that the automobile companies use their inputs to make either the <em>hybrid cars</em> or the <em>regular cars</em>.
If the price of the <em>Hybrid cars</em> rises sharply, Automobile companies will make more <em>Hybrid cars</em> so as to take advantage of the situation and make more profit.
This would reduce the amount of inputs that they have available for <em>regular cars</em> and so they will make less <em>regular cars. </em>

Answer:
Allocated administrative cost for mixing is $81000
And allocated administrative cost for for bottling is $81000
Explanation:
We have given total number of employs for mixing = 350
And total number of employs for bottling = 350
Administrative cost = $162000
So total number of employs = 350+350 = 700
So allocation base for mixing 
So allocated amount for mixing = 0.5×$162000 = $81000
Allocation base for bottling = 
So allocated amount for bottling = 0.5×$162000 = $81000
