Quoted from"The Invisible Man" by Ralph Ellison, these lines are spoken by the vet who had mocked the narrator's college and Mr. Norton.
Explanation:
Ralph Ellison's "The Invisible Man" tells the story of the narrator/ protagonist who had been accustomed to being <em>"invisible"</em>, meaning he was unnoticed by people. Amidst the racial prejudice of the blacks by the whites, the young narrator finds it hard to fully comprehend the situation. And things turn for the worse when he showed the reality of life for the blacks to one of the college's benefactors which resulted in him getting expelled from the college.
But despite all that, he calmly accepted his mistake and asked for recommendation from the man. The letters did not endorse him but rather cheated him from any form of employment. The given quote is from Chapter 7, spoken by the vet who was his co-passenger in the bus for New York. He told the young man to "<em>come out of the fog"</em>. He advised him to try to "<em>learn to look beneath the surface</em>", be more conscious of the events around him so as not to be a victim.
GDP stands for gross domestic product. The GDP allows economist to measure the market value in terms of money. They are measuring the final good or service that is being offered to a customer over any given time.
Since the first bag of flour is being sold to a bakery to make bread from and sell for $4.00 the GDP of this item is $4.00 because that is the cost a customer is paying.
The second bag of flour is sold to a customer for $2.00 in a grocery store and is the final cost a they are paying.
In this scenario, the GDP for the two products being sold to a customer is $6.00.
Answer:
If Blue ridge decides to purchase the parts instead of manufacturing them, their total costs will increase by $21,300
Explanation:
currently Blue Ridge's costs are:
variable costs = $69,000
fixed costs = $69,000
total $138,000
total cost per unit = $138,000 / 45,000 units = $3.0667 per unit
if Blue Ridge decide to outsource the production of the parts:
variable costs = 45,000 x $4 = $180,000
decrease in fixed costs = $69,000 x -30% = -$20,700
total costs = $159,300
If Blue ridge decides to purchase the parts instead of manufacturing them, their total costs will increase by ⇒ $159,300 - $138,000 = $21,300
