In economics an externality is the cost or benefit that affects someone who did not choose this. It is the true cost of a product that can be both positive or negative. Pollution can be an example of this. An educated labor force producing more is a positive example of this. The government rewards positive externality and punishes negative externality. Rewards can be surpluses and taxes can be punishments.

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the question was missing data, I have done a quick google search and found the question which I am uploading it here as an image.

<h2>DATA:</h2><h2 /><h3>Last Year:</h3>

      Labor Input = $30,100

      Raw Materials Input = $35,100

      Energy Input = $5010

      Capital Input = $50,010

      Other Input = $2010

      Sales Output = $200,100

<h3 /><h3>This Year:</h3>

      Labor Input = $40,100

      Raw Materials Input = $45,100

      Energy Input = $6050

      Capital Input = $49,750

      Other Input = $2875

      Sales Output = $202,100

<h2>FORMULA:</h2>

Productivity = Output / Input

<h2>CALCULATION:</h2>

Total Input of Last Year =

                             $ (30,100 + 35,100 + 5010 + 50,010 + 2010) = $122,230

Total Input of This Year =

                             $ (40,100 + 45,100 + 6050 + 49,750 + 2875) = $143,875

<h3>TOTAL PRODUCTIVITY:</h3><h3 />

                                               Last Year                                 This Year

Output in ($)                         $200100                                 $202100

Input in ($)                              $122230                                 $143875

Total Productivity      200100 / 122230 = 1.64          202100 / 143875 = 1.40

<h3></h3><h3>PARTIAL PRODUCTIVITY:</h3><h3></h3><h3>Last Year:</h3>

Partial Productivity Labor = 200100 / 30100 = 6.65

Partial Productivity Capital = 200100 / 50010 = 4.00

Partial Productivity Raw Materials = 200100 / 35100 = 5.70

<h3>This Year:</h3>

Partial Productivity Labor = 202100 / 40100 = 5.04

Partial Productivity Capital = 202100 / 49750 = 4.06

Partial Productivity Raw Materials = 202100 / 45100 = 4.48

I think this is important without a doubt . You might need to use that money someday for yourself but won't have it because you spent it on a HUGE list of groceries. If you put some money aside for yourself, you will have money that your allowed to do anything with (saving, buying clothes, buying cars, etc.) You should always save some of your payment that way you always have extra money in case of any money emergenies or such.

Answer:

Explanation:

An implied contract is formed when both parties mutually agree to a contract without necessarily having a signed written contract. In this case, Carl called the towing company and requested the service, so she agreed to her car being towed and therefore must pay for the services.
