Answer:

Both Hillyland and Flatland will be better off in a win-win solution if they engage in comparative advantage.

Explanation:

Suppose each nation decides to specialize in the most suitable​ crop, and trade with the other nation for the other product, the trade-offs will be the products they supposedly can produce but do not have comparative advantage in. For Hillyland it will be rice and for Flatland it will be coffee.

When both nations practice comparative advantage there will be no losers because economic theory suggests that, when countries practice comparative advantage, the sum total of their combined output will be greater than if they had produced all products themselves because they wanted to be self sufficient.

The logic is simple, goods are less costly to produce in a country that has comparative advantage and at the end they could be sold cheaper to the country that traded it off.

Lynette Company's Inventory balance at 12/31/04 was $200,000 and was $188,000 at 12/31/05. Its Accounts Payable balance e at 12/
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A) $704,000.

Explanation:

For computing the cash payments we need to calculate the following amounts which are as follows

Total purchases = cost of goods sold + ending inventory - opening inventory

= $720,000 + $188,000 - $200,000

= $708,000

Now cash payment to merchandise is

= Beginning account payable balance + purchased made - ending account payable balance

= $80,000 + $708,000 - $84,000

= $704,000

Hence, the correct option is A. $704,000

A market system tends to restrict business risk to owners and investors. This results in which of the following benefits?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: d)Firms have to pay more to attract inputs, as these inputs have to share the risk.

Explanation: When the market system tries to put restriction on the business risk to owner and other investors , the firms have to give more payment to attract them to market business.

The chances of risk have have to be shared by both the parties so the owners or investors are going to indulge in the business when they gain some benefit e.g.-more payment.

Other options are incorrect because entrepreneurship will not be encouraged through this process. Incomes will not be distributed equally and neither the prudent risk management will be aimed.Thus, the correct option is option(d).

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

d. 8%

Explanation:

The computation of the discount rate is shown below:

Initial investment = Present value of cash inflows

where,

Initial investment is $7,139,000

And, the present value of cash inflows

= Annual cash inflows × discount rate

We assume the discount rate be X

$7,139,000 = $1,000,000 × X

So,

X = 7139000 ÷ 1000000 = 7.139

= 8%

We simply applied the above formula in order to find out the discount rate
