3. False. As per the research conducted on the basis of catch reconstruction, the catches have been declining due top several reasons.
4. The last statement is totally correct as verified by the source mentioned.
Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Equivalent units of production(EUP) - Materials:
= Transferred out + Ending balance
= 10,451 units × 100% + 3,483 units × 100%
= 10,451 + 3,483
= 13,934
Equivalent units of production(EUP) - conversion:
= Transferred out + Ending balance
= 10,451 units × 100% + 3,483 units × 36%
= 10,451 + 1,253.88
= 11,704.88
Material cost = 
Material cost = 
= 73,157
Conversion cost = 
Conversion cost = 
Conversion cost = 
= 53,715
Therefore,
Total cost of units completed during the period(10,451 units):
= Material cost + Conversion cost
= 73,157 + 53,715
= 126,872
Scarcity is to not have enough resources to fullfil a societies wants and needs. The 3 basic questions a society must ask inorder to deal with this are. what to produce? how to produce? and, for whom to produce? whoever answers those questions is how I societies economic system is decided. Though to answer your question in short, the basic goal of a society is to deal with scarcity, they achieve this by producing as much resources as possible with the little resources available.
