Answer:
Opportunity cost
Explanation:
In economics (a social science that studies human behavior in relation to ends and scarce means which have alternative uses), there are basic concepts such as scarcity, scale of preference, opportunity costs etc.
Human wants are unlimited and termed to be insatiable. However, the resources available to satisfy these wants are unlimited hence these wants are grouped in the order of importance known as a scale of preference. As the available resources are used to meet a need or satisfy a want, another will go unsatisfied due to the limited resources available.
The need/want that goes unsatisfied is known as the opportunity or real cost or cost of the alternative forgone. This is what Jacks salary will be considered as if he quits his job.
Answer:
option (A) 150
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Number of rooms in the hotel = 1500
Number of checkouts = 300
Number of stayovers = 900
Number of transient arrivals = 250
Group block that begins a three stay on that day = 200
Now,
Rooms available for next Friday
= Total number of rooms - ( stayovers + transient arrivals + group block)
= 1500 - ( 900 + 250 + 200)
= 150
Hence,
the correct answer is option (A) 150
Answer:
a. a decrease in the price of wool shirts and a decrease in the price of raw cotton
Explanation:
A decrease in the price of wool shirts would lead to an increase in demand for wool shirts and a decrease in demand for cotton shirt. Cotton and wool shirts are substitutes goods. Price would fall and quantity would fall. A decrease in the price of raw cotton would increase production of cotton shirts and the supply of shirts would increase. This would lead to a rightward shift in the supply curve. Quantity would increase and price would fall. The combined effect of this would lead to an unambiguous decrease in price.

Answer:
1,081,000
Explanation:
Here we will use the formula
Material Purchase = Beginning raw material - (Ending raw material + raw material used)
by applying this formula we can calculate Material purchased.
= 547,000 - (610,000+1,018,000)
= 1,081,000
Answer:
Accounting Profit = $11,875
Economic Profit = $1,575
Explanation:
income from job = $10,000 /month
Rent which could have been earned = $300 /month
Office supplies = $75 /month
Increase in electricity bills = $50 /month
Income from home = $12,000 /month
(a) Accounting profit = Income - Costs
= $12,000 - ($75 + $50)
= $11,875
(b) Economic profit = Accounting profit - Opportunity cost
= $11,875 - ($10,000 + $300)
= $1,575
