Answer:
Joint cost value based = $396
Explanation:
Given:
Company L M
Quantities produced 200 lbs 150 lbs
Market value $8/lb $16/lb
Total joint cost = $660
Computation:
Market value of L = 200 lbs × $8/lbs
Market value of L = $1,600
Market value of M = 150 lbs × $16/lbs
Market value of M = $2,400
Total market value = Market value of L + Market value of M
Total market value = $1,600 + $2,400
Total market value = $4,000
Joint cost value based = $660 × ($2,400 / $4,000)
Joint cost value based = $396
Answer:
a. 8,000 + 1,000 + 3.2Q
b. 27,000 + 3.2Q
c. 15,000 Units
Explanation:
a. The accounting cost function is shown below:-
Accounting cost function = Fixed Leasing and insurance cost + material cost and supplied cost
= 8,000 + 1,000 + 3.2Q
b. The economic cost function is shown below:-
Economic cost function = Accounting cost + Opportunity cost
= 9,000 + 3.2Q + 3*6,000
=27,000 + 3.2Q
c. The computation of break even point is shown below:-
Break even Point = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Price - Average Variable cost
= 27,000 ÷ 5 - 3.2
= 15,000 Units
Answer:
FALSE
Explanation:
A person is considered unemployed if he / she does not have a job and has searched for a job within the last 4 weeks
Unemployment rate = (number of unemployed / labour force) x 100
To collect data on unemployment, The Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts a survey every month known as the Current Population Survey (CPS).
types of unemployment
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition. Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
The geologist lost his hob permanently due to increase in wages (polices)
Frictional unemployment: the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.
Voluntary unemployment: e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment: it occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy. Unemployment would be high in a downturn and low in a boom
I inferred you are to the 2017 TEDx talk "Short-termism is killing us: it's time for Long path" by Ari Wallach.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Wallach, he refers to short-termism as focusing on short-term results at the expense of long-term interests.
In his words, short-termism is a problem because;
- "it prevents the CEO from buying really expensive safety equipment"
- "prevents teachers from spending quality one-on-one time with their students".
So in summary what Wallach is saying is that short-termism prevents futuristic thinking.
Answer:
Jamal
Explanation:
Given that
Number of required slides = 50 slides
Creating slides Per hour = 15 slides
Bill amount per hour = $750
So by considering the above information, Bette's opportunity cost of creating slides would be
= Bill amount per hour ÷ creating slides per hour
= $750 ÷ 15 per hour
= $50
For making 50 slides, the opportunity cost would be
= $50 × 50 slides
= $2,500
And, Jamal opportunity cost is 30% lower, so it would be
= $50 - $50 × 30%
= $50 - $15
= $35
And, the billing rate is 25% higher, so it would be
= $750 + $750 × 25%
= $750 + $187.50
= $937.50
So in one hour, it would be
= $937.50 ÷ 35 slides
= 26 slides
Based on the creating slides, the Jamal gains a competitive advantage over Bette
