Answer:

1.2

Explanation:

The computation of the minimum number of servers required to avoid an overloaded system is shown below:-

Average service time =  Average service time ÷ number of minutes in a hour

18 min = 18 ÷ 60 per hr

= 0.3 hr per customer

Now for four customers, it would be

min servers = 4 × 0.3

= 1.2

So, the correct answer is min servers = 2 as servers cant be in fractions

Therefore we have applied the above formula.

Answer:

Steve Jobs coming back, Innovations, and Tim Cook taking over as COO

Explanation:

The fluctuations in stock prices of a company are due to improved performance of the company in meeting it's objectives and perception that the business will do better in the future.

In the given scenario there was an initial increase in Apple’s stock price from $27.97 to $702.10, an increase of 25 times.

This can be attributed to the return of Steve Jobs as the CEO of Apple. There was a confidence boost by his coming back. Also there were various innovations like: iPhone, iMac, iPod, and iTunes. These improved the performance and by extension share price of Apple.

However when Tim Cook took over as COO he reduced production by half resulting in stock price decrease by 37% from its peak in September 2012 until the end of March 2013, from $702.10 to $442.66.

Answer:

Decrease

$200

$190

$180

Explanation:

The question isn't complete. Here is the full question:

A study finds that the noise from airplanes is harmful; hence, the government imposes a $20 tax on the sale of every airplane. This amount accurately accounts for the external cost of the noise pollution. Before the corrective tax, airplane tickets regularly sold for $190. After the tax is in place, the market price for airplane tickets rises to $200.

The quantity of airplane tickets sold will

The socially optimal price of airplane tickets is

The private market price is

A firm selling airplane tickets receives after it pays the tax

The noise from the airplanes constitute negative externality.

Tax levied on negative externality is known as pigouvian tax.

As a result of the tax, the price of tickets increases and this would reduce the quantity of tickets demanded for according to the law of demand. According to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

The social optimal price is the price of the ticket after the tax accounting for the externality has been added to price. The social optimal price is $200.

The private market price is the price before the taxes: $190.

The amount received by firms = $200 - $20 = $180
