Answer:

Marginal utility is the benefit of consuming additional unit of a product and it is inversely proportional to price.

Explanation:

Utility is the satisfaction derived from consuming a particular product.

As consumption continues, marginal utility is the benefit of consuming additional units of the product. Marginal utility reduces as consumption increases.

So the consumer is less willing to buy at current price. However the consumer will be more willing to buy more at a reduced price.

The campus bookstore is using the knowledge of this by selling the first mu for $10 and subsequent one for $6. The consumer will still be willing to buy at the reduced price.

andre [41]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Six sigma is a tool used by organizations to improve their processes and reduce defects, to improve quality of their products or services.

A country has comparative advantage in the production of a good or service If it produces the good or service at a lower opportunity cost when compared to its trading partners.

The price of Guatemala's coffee is higher when compared to the world price of coffee without international trade. It shows that Guatemala doesn't have a comparative advantage in the production of coffee. Guatemala should stop producing coffee and import instead.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) $2.800

Explanation:

Using the straight-line method to depreciate, the calculation to find the depreciation tax shield is the following:

  1. Finding the depreciable cost: Depreciable cost = purchase price ($70,000) - salvage value ($14,000) = $56,000
  2. Finding the depreciation per year: Depreciation/year = \frac{Depreciable cost (56,000)}{Asset useful life (7 years)} = $8000
  3. Finally, the depreciation tax shield for 2018: Depreciation tax shield = Dep/year ($8,000) * tax rate (0,35) = $2,800
