Answer:
U-shaped
Explanation:
Since the marginal product of labor is decreasing, the average variable costs and marginal costs will be increasing at all points, but the average fixed costs will be decreasing. That is why the average total costs (which includes both variable and fixed costs per unit) will be U-shaped since they will fall at the beginning when the decrease in marginal product of labor is small, bu then will increase as the marginal product of labor falls even more.
Answer: $5 per machine hour
Explanation:
Given the following :
Estimated manufacturing overhead cost = $550,000
Expected machine-hour to be incurred = 110,000
Actual manufacturing overhead = $575,000
Actual machine hour incurred = 120,000
The manufacturing overhead application rate:
Expected manufacturing overhead cost / Expected machine hour to be incurred
= $550,000 / 110,000 machine hour
= $5 per machine hour
Answer & Explanation:
Modiglani's Life cycle Hypothesis depicts spending & consumption pattern of people, in order to stabilise / or smoothen their consumprtion. The theory has following phases :
- Early (Non Working) Age, Low Income stage : Borrowings are done, to cover up for lack of income that yields desirable stable consumption level.
