Answer:

correct option is A. $145  

Explanation:

given data

investment cost = $2900

interest rate = 5% per year

solution

formula for present value of perpetuity is

investment cost = fixed cash saving per year ÷ interest rate    ..................1

put her value we get fixed cash saving per year that is

saving per year cost =  $2900 × 5%

saving per year cost =  $2900 × 0.05

saving per year cost =  $145

so correct option is A. $145

Josh's weekly budget for lunch is $24. He eats only pizza and burgers. Each pizza costs $6 and each burger costs $3. Josh knows
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The answer is: Josh's utility maximizing point is when he buys 2 pizzas and 4 burgers.

Explanation:

If Josh gets equal marginal utility per dollar spent when buying one pizza and 2 burgers, that means that every pizza and every burger give Josh 10.67 utility unit per dollar spent. So Josh can obtain maximum 16 units of utility with his budget and his purchasing options (= $24 x 0.67 units of utility per dollar). The way he can maximize his utility is by buying two packs of one pizza and two burgers per pack, since every pack will give him 8 units of utility.

Which of the following is a major difference between a budget constraint and production possibilities frontier?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPF is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.  

So, the PPF exhibits diminishing return. The slope of the PPF is different at different points. this makes the PPF a curve

the budget constraint is a straight line that shows the various combinations of goods a consumer can consume given her income. the budget constraint is a straight line because the slope is constant at each point on the curve

Also, the slope of the budget constraint is the relative prices of the two goods
