Answer:
This situation means that resources were not being efficiently used.
If society managed to produce 1 more unit of X with the same resources and technology, this means that some resources were idle in the past, which causes inefficiency.
This also means that the combination 3 units of X and 4 units of Y is a point inside the PPF. However, we do not know if the combination 4 units of X and 4 units of Y is a point inside the PPF, or on the PPF, because there could be some other combination that could be even more efficient (for example 5 units of both X and Y with the same resources and technology).
Answer:
option (C) 32,750 hours
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $250,000
Overapplied overhead = $12,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $8.00 per direct labor-hour
Now,
The total Manufacturing Overhead applied last year
= Actual manufacturing overhead cost + Overapplied overhead
= $250,000 + $12,000
= $262,000
Therefore,
Direct Labor Hours worked last year = 
or
= 
= 32,750 hours
Hence,
The correct answer is option (C) 32,750 hours
Answer:
A) -$10,020,000
Explanation:
Year 0 cash flow = -(Cost of Machine + Installation Cost + Clean Room Cost)
Year 0 cash flow = -($7,000,000 + $20,000 + $3,000,000)
Year 0 cash flow = -$10,200,000
So, the incremental free cash flows associated with the new machine in year 0 is ($10,200,000).
Answer:
The decrease in production, is the right answer.
Explanation:
The decrease in production because if the output is more than planned aggregate expenditure then the equilibrium point will be at a lower point. Thus, in order to reach the equilibrium level, the production has to decrease. Moreover, if the output is lower than the planned aggregate expenditure then the production should be increased to reach the equilibrium point.
