Answer:
1. Department A (manufactures parts in a highly automated process): Machine hours
2. Department B (assembles the parts by hand): Direct labor hours
3. Department C (places completed units in a heat chamber to sterilize the before they are shipped out): Batches
Explanation:
Machine hours is used to measure factory overhead as against the goods produced. This method is usually applied in production environment using machine, and where the most activities are done by machines. On the other hand direct labor is used when the production of goods and services is done by human hands, and not machines. While Machine hours is the appropriate overhead allocation rate for Department A, Direct Labor hours will be appropriate for Department B. Hence Batches will be appropriate for Department C.
A because capitalism is FREE enterprise and public companies don’t relate to either of them
The budget constrain is how much of each good can Joe's buy and it's given by:
Income = P_f * Q_f +P_s * Q_s
P_f = Price_of_Food
Q_f = Quantity_of_Food
P_s = Price_of_Shelter
Q_s = Quantity_of_Shelter
In case a):
300 = 5*Q_f(a) + 100*Q_s
in case b):
300 = 10*Q_f(b) + 100*Q_s
To draw each line, you can make a graphic in which the x axis is Q_s and y axis is Q_f
set Q_f = 0 and solve for Q_s which gives => Q_s = 3 so, in the x axis the line will start in Q_s = 3
the same, and solve for Q_f and it'll give =>
Q_f(a) = 60
Q_f(b) = 30
So, from the start in x axis in Q_s = 3 you draw the line (a) to the y axis Q_f(a) = 60 and you draw the line (b) to the y axis Q_f(b) = 30
To get the oportunity cost you have to divide the cost of what is given up (food) by what is gained (shelter).
Oportunity_Cost_Food(a) = 5/100 = 0.05
Oportunity_Cost_Food(b) = 10/100 = 0.10
As you can see, the oportunity cost of food increase
Answer: the market supply to shift inward, driving the equilibrium price higher.
Explanation:
An increase in input prices will result into a rise in the production costs. This will result in a leftward shift of the supply curve.
Therefore, the market supply will shift inward, driving the equilibrium price higher. This simply means that there will be lesser supply of the product and hence, increase in price.
