Answer:

1. $12

2. $8

Explanation:

1. At Break-Even, George's profit will be equal to their cost.

Revenue = Costs.

Variable costs are $9.

Fixed costs are $24,000

Quantity is 8,000 shirts

Let the Break-Even price be x.

8,000x = 24,000 + (9 * 8,000)

8,000x = 24,000 + 72,000

8,000x = 96,000

x = 96,000/8,000

= $12

2. At 50% more shirts. George's would be selling;

= 8,000 + 8,000(0.5)

= 12,000 shirts

New Break-Even Point will be;

12,000x = 24,000 + 72,000

12,000x = 96,000

x = 96,000/12,000

x = $8

The cob Douglas production function is given by Q(K,L)=AK^1.4*L^1.6
Alexeev081 [22]

Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

Q(K,L)=AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } .

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

Q(tK,tL)=A(tK)^{1.4} (tL)^ {1.6 } .

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

Q(tK,tL)=At^{1.4}K^{1.4} t^ {1.6 }L^ {1.6 } .

This implies that:

Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4} \times t^ {1.6 }(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4 + 1.6}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Simplify the exponent of t to get;

Q(tK,tL)=t^{3}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3

Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L}=3AK^{1.4}L^{1.6}

Verifying from the left:

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =K(1.4AK^{0.4} L^{1.6}) + L(1.6AK^{1.4} L^{0.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =1.4(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6}) + 1.6(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =(1.4 +  1.6)(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =3(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

An individual who works at a bookstore routinely takes home ballpoint pens and post-it notes, uses the copy machine to make pers
Papessa [141]

This attitude is called cash register honesty.

The book store worker knows very well that ball point pens, post-its, copies on the copier machine and long-distance phone calls are office resources and should, in principle, be used only for office purposes.

He is also aware that the he is responsible for his own needs - be it post-its or long-distance phone calls.

By taking some small supplies home or using the office equipment for personal use (e.g. making personal copies or making personal long-distance phone calls), he increases the cost to the company.

Yet, he continues to indulge in the activities described in the question, because he believes, at a personal level, that he can get away with it . (It's okay with him at a personal level.)

However, since stealing from the cash register is not ok with him on a personal level, he doesn't do it even though he knows he can get away with it. This attitude is called cash register honesty.

Each language possesses a structure which must at some level influence the way its users view the world.
attashe74 [19]
The statement above is popularly referred to as Whorfian hypothesis. The hypothesis states that language directly affects the way people think about the world and the way they perceive it, thus it holds the idea that one's language determines one's conception of the world.

Which of the following options is a better purchase for a bicycle?
Bess [88]

Answer:

Option 3: $12 down with equal payments of $5 for 12 months

Explanation:

In option 1 :

The cost is $ 88,

In option 2 :

Down payment = $ 5,

Weekly payment = $ 8,

Number of weeks = 10,

So, the total cost = 5 + 8 × 10 = 5 + 80 = $ 85,

In option 3 :

Down payment = $ 12,

Monthly payment = $ 5,

Number of months = 12,

So, the total cost = 12 + 5 × 12 = 12 + 60 = $ 72,

In option 4 :

Down payment = $ 20,

Monthly payment = $ 20,

Number of months = 12,

So, the total cost = 12 + 20 × 12 = 12 + 240= $ 252

∵ 72 < 85 < 88 < 252

Hence, option 3 is better.
