Answer:
Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese
Explanation:
Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce rye and cheese.
Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels of rye while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 10 bushels of rye.
<u>By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese because it has a lower opportunity cost (as a matter of fact half the cost) in comparison with Sweden.</u>
<u>Comparative advantage is an economic term that refers to an economy's ability to produce goods and services at a lower opportunity cost than that of trade partners</u>
Answer:
a. $173
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of interest earned in five years is shown below;
But before that following calculations need to be done
As we know that
Simple interest = Present value × rate of interest × time period
= $2,500 × 8% × 5
= $1,000
Now the future value is
Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
= $2,500 ×(1 + 8%)^5
= $2,500 × 1.4693280768
= $3,673
Now the compound interest is
Compound interest = Future value - Present value
= $3,673 - $2,500
= $1,173
Now interest on interest is
Interest on interest = Compound interest - Simple interest
= $1,173 - $1,000
= $173
