Answer:

C. a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

These four (4) factors of production when combined effectively and efficiently are used for the manufacturing or production of goods and services that meets the unending requirements or needs of the consumers.

A public good is a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

This ultimately implies that, a public good such as power utility (electricity) or water supply is capable of being provided simultaneously to the general public.

Furthermore, a public good is non-excludable and cannot be exhausted due to its use by the general public i.e it's never depleted.

G dixon company produced 6,000 units of product that required 1.5 standard hours per unit. the standard fixed overhead cost per

sweet [91]

Given:
Actual Production 6,000 units @ 1.5 standard hours per unit.
Budgeted hours: 10,000
Fixed overhead cost per unit is $0.50 per hour.

6000 units * 1.5 std. hrs/unit = 9,000 hours

Actual hours: 9,000 hours * $0.50 per hour = $4,500
Budgeted hours: 10,000 hours * $0.50 per hour = $5,000

Fixed Factory Overhead Volume Variance = $5,000 - $4,500 = $500 UNFAVORABLE.

It is unfavorable because the production is inefficient. It is more favorable if the produced units are higher than 6,000 units and the actual hours of production are more than the budgeted hours of production.

Assume you purchased the right to sell 2,300 shares of JCPenney stock in November 2015 at a strike price of $9.00 per share. Sup

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Put options give the holder the right to sell the underlying stock to the seller of the put option.

Put options are advantageous when the price in the market falls below the strike price of the option because the buyer will be able to sell at above market value and make a profit.

The asking price for a strike price of $9.00 is listed to be $0.33 and this is the premium paid by the buyer of the Put Option.

<h2>1. Return if stock sells for $8.00</h2>

= Amount received/ Amount spent

= (No. of shares * ((Strike price - Market price) - Premium paid) ) / (No. of share * premium)

= (2,300 shares * (($9.00 - 8.00) - 0.33))/ ( 2,300 * 0.33)

= 2.03

= 203 %

<h2>2. Return if stock sells for $10.00. </h2>

As this is an option, the investor can decide not to sell to the seller. The market price is higher than the strike price so they will not sell to the seller of the option and the return will be;

= (No. of shares * - Premium paid) ) / (No. of share * premium)

= (2,300 shares * - 0.33)/ ( 2,300 * 0.33)

= -1

= -100 %
