True or false?John says to his friend, "This concert is going to cost me $20 when I buy the ticket." His friend corrects him and
Illusion [34]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Opportunity cost refers to the value of a missed chance as a result of deciding a certain way. It is the forfeited benefit of choosing one option over another. Economists determine the opportunity cost by calculating the value of the next best alternative.

If John buys the ticket, it will cost $20.  Attending the concert will cause him not to do his homework, as he cannot be in two places at the same time. The consequence of him not doing his homework is the opportunity cost. Attending the concert will, therefore, cost him the $20 and the opportunity cost.

Elmo Johnson was late on his property tax payment to the county. He owed $7,500 and paid the tax four months late. The county ch
GrogVix [38]

Answer: $250

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that Elmo Johnson was late on his property tax payment to the county and that he owed $7,500 and paid the tax four months late.

We are further told that the county charges an annual penalty of 10%. The amount of the penalty for the four-month period goes thus:

Annual penalty = 10% × $7500

= 0.1 × $7500

= $750

Since he is four months late and there are twelve months in a year, this will be:

= $750 × 4/12

= $750 × 1/3

= $750/3

= $250

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The credit card is the most effective method of payment.

Explanation:

The store will not ship the item until the payment is accredited to their account. Because of this, Jill needs to pick the payment  method that have the fastest clear time.

The Check: usually takes about two business days for a deposited check to clear.

Money Order: It depends on the bank. Some banks allow for money orders to be cleared and deposited almost immediately, and some require at least one business day for it to clear.

Credit Card: almost all the time payments can take place immediately.

The obvious choice is Credit Card payment for the instant clear of the funds in the store account.
