Answer:
a shortage would arise since quantity demanded would exceed the quantity supplied
Explanation:
The law of demand states an inverse relationship between price of a good and it's demand.
In the given case, per month rental for rooms has significantly reduced for students. This would result into an immediate increase in demand for the rooms. Now since, the rooms available are limited in number, a shortage would arise.
Owing to such a shortage, a possibility would arise wherein students who do not require such rooms may avail such rooms at $500 and subsequently let out the rooms to outsiders at anything below $900 thereby earning a profit.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The correct answer is b. Take advantage of economies of scale and scope by opening a chain of lower priced economy hotels that leverage the Coastal Haven brand image.
Explanation:
The economy of scale refers to the power that a company has when it reaches an optimum level of production to produce more at a lower cost, that is, as production in a company grows, its costs per unit produced are reduced. The more it produces, the less it costs to produce each unit.
In other words, it means that if in a production function the quantity of all inputs used is increased by one percentage, the output produced can increase by that same percentage or increase by greater or lesser amount than the same percentage. If it increases by the same percentage, we would be faced with constant economies of scale, if it were in more, they would be growing economies of scale, if it were in less, in decreasing economies of scale.
In microeconomics, economy of scale is understood as the advantages in terms of costs that a company obtains thanks to the expansion and good synergies that it has applied to its competitive environment
.
The concept of "economies of scale" serves for the long term, and refers to reductions in unit cost as the size of an installation and the levels of input utilization increase. The usual sources of economies of scale are the inventory (large-scale purchase of materials through long-term contracts), management and logistics (increasing the specialization of managers), financial (obtaining lower interest costs in bank financing), marketing and technology (benefiting of the scale yields in the production function).

Answer:
Over applied Overhead =$ 42,500
Explanation:
Actual Overhead $325,000
 Estimated Overhead $350,000
Over applied overhead is when the Predetermined overhead is more than the actual overhead . Under applied overhead is when the Predetermined overhead is less than the actual overhead . 
Predetermined Overhead rate= Overhead / total direct labor hours
                               = 350,000/ 500,000 (100)= 70%
Applied Overhead = Predetermined Overhead rate( actual direct labor hours)
                                = 70 % (525,000) = $367,500
Applied Overhead $367,500
Less Actual Overhead $325,000
Over applied Overhead =$ 42,500
 
        
             
        
        
        
ANSWER: Surplus by $1,152
EXPLANATION: Traci had a budget of $770 for fixed expense and $530 for living expenses per month which adds up to $1,300 expenses per month. Since she has no annual expense, her yearly total expense would be $15,600.
Traci earns $16,752 so by subtracting her expense from income, we get $16,752 - $15,600 = $1,152
