Answer:

Option B is correct

The maximum price to be paid is = $64000

Explanation:

To determine the the maximum price we would compute using the relevant costs of internal production.

<em>The maximum price to be paid to external supplier should be the total relevant costs associated with internal production.</em>

Total relevant cost of internal production = 34,000 + 15,000 +9000 + 6000

The maximum price to be paid is = $64000

Note that the fixed overhead  of $6000 is associated with the internal production the balance of 4,000 is irrelevant and would be incurred either way.

Each firm can produce at most one car. Suppose the market for electric cars is competitive. Why is the equilibrium price in this
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Consumer surplus = (60000 - 40000)+ (90000 - 40000)+(40000 - 40000) = $70000

Producer surplus = (40000 - 20000)+(40000 - 30000)+ (40000 - 40000) = $30000

Social surplus = Consumer surplus +Producer Surplus= 70000 + 30000 = $100000

Consumer surplus = (Willingness to pay – Price)

Producer surplus = ( Price –Cost)

The computation of the percentage of change is as follows;

a. For 2020 to 2021

= ($473,000 - $503,000) ÷ ($503,000)

b .For 2021 to 2022

= (Net income in 2022 - net income is 2021) ÷ (net income in 2021)

= ($521,000 - $473,000) ÷ ($473,000)

= 10.15% increase

Which of the following is included in the consumption component of U.S. GDP? Question 12 options:
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Answer is option b, i.e. purchase of natural gas by U.S. households.

Explanation:

Consumption component of U.S. GDP includes purchase of various durable goods, non-durable goods, and also various intangible services. But anything that is purchased as a means of investment rather than for personal consumption is not regarded as consumption component in GDP. Here, purchase of newly constructed houses is an asset and thus, is not included in these components. Similarly, purchase made for business purposes is also excluded from the list of consumption components.
