Answer:
The demand curve will shift to the left (reduce)
Explanation:
Shift in demand results from change in other factors affecting demand except for price.
There are wide-spread reports of contacting mad cow disease by consuming beef from Canada. This will result in a general decrease in the quantity of beef demanded (shift in demand to the left). At all prices there will be less demand for Canadian beef.
This is illustrated in the attached diagram.
Answer:
Present Value
Stream A $1,251.247
Stream B $1,300.316
Explanation:
<em>The present value of a future sum is the amount that would be invested today at the prevailing interest rate to have the sum</em>
Stream A
(100 × 1.08^9-1) + (400× 1.08^-2) + (400× 1.08^-3) + (400× 1.08^-4) + (300× 1.08^-5) = $1,251.247
Stream B
(300 × 1.08^9-1) + (400× 1.08^-2) + (400× 1.08^-3) + (400× 1.08^-4) + (100× 1.08^-5) = $1,300.316
Present Value
Stream A $1,251.247
Stream B $1,300.316
Answer: The mean income of the three people surveyed is $33,000.
The mean or average of a data set is nothing but the sum total of all the observations in a given set of data divided by the number of observations.
The formula for calculating the mean is:

where
is the mean or average
X₁ , X₂, X₃ .......Xn refers to the observations
N is the total number of observations
Substituting the values in the formula for mean we get,



Answer:
b. 10% doubling
Explanation:
Options are <em>"a. tripling, b. 10% doubling, c. 90% tripling, d. 90% doubling, e. 10%"</em>
In this question, 90%(0.9) learning rate means that (1-0.9)10% unit of input is reduced each time the production is doubled. In a nutshell, the learning curve percentage represents the proportion by which the amount of an input per unit of output is reduced each time production is doubled.
