Answer:

Iceland specializes in production of fish and Canada specializes in lumber.

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of an economic decision is the cost of giving up the second-best alternative. Whoever has a relatively lower opportunity cost in the production of a product is said to be specializing in the production of that product.  

The opportunity cost for fish and lumber in Canada is 1F ≡ 1L, while it is 2F ≡ 1L for Iceland.  

This implies that Canada has a lower opportunity cost in the production of lumber as it has to give up one unit of fish while Iceland has to give up two units.  

Similarly, Iceland has a lower opportunity cost in the production of fish as it has to give up 0.5 units of lumber, while Canada has to give up one unit.

Answer:

Cheryl's net worth is;

c). $5,000

Explanation:

The net worth is the value of an individual taking into account all the individual's assets and liabilities. It is a holistic view on the value of an individual. It is also used to estimate the value of a company, corporation and even countries. It is one of the standard measures used to gauge an entity's wealth. The net worth can be calculated by taking the difference between assets and liabilities. An asset is anything of economic value that is owned by an entity while a liability is anything of economic value that is owed.

The following formula can be used to estimate Cheryl's net worth;

N=A-L

where;

N=net worth

A=assets

L=liabilities

In our case;

N=unknown to be determine

A=Automobile+checking account

Automobile=$10,000 and checking account=$5,000

A=10,000+5,000=$15,000

L=student loan+car loan

student loan=$2,000

car loan=$8,000

L=2,000+8,000=$10,000

replacing;

N=15,000-10,000=$5,000

Cheryl's net worth=$5,000
