"Factor of Production" is the force that combine to make the production of products and services possible.
Explanation:
Factor of production involves land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship.
Land:
The important factor is that it creates major revenue through oil, gases and other possible resources which can be obtained from the land.
Labor: Starting from the person who brought bricks to build the company till the top management of the company are part of the Labor factor.
Capital: A factor which implicitly support as a factor of production. Without capital there is no chances of production or providing wages.
Entrepreneurship: These are the brainstorms who plan and create product and sits at the top level and make production and service possible.
Answer:
a. Give the Objective function.
Let c = #coats to be produced
Let s = #slacks to be produced
b. Give the constraints
3c+5s≤150
10c+4s≤200
d. Give the optimal Point
The profit function would be P(x,y)=50c+40s
Explanation:
Let c = #coats to be produced
Let s = #slacks to be produced
Our first constraint deals with square yards of wool. We cannot exceed 150 square yards. Using the fact that coats require 3 sq yds and slacks require 5 sq yds, we can identify this constraint.
3c+5s≤150
Our second constraint deals with the number of hours available being 200. Coats require 10 hrs and slacks require 4 hrs. Now we have our second constraint.
10c+4s≤200
We might also assume that some of each will be produced, so we can list the following as constraints as well.
c>0 and s>0
The profit function would be P(x,y)=50c+40s
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Supply is sellers ability and willingness to sell a good at given price, time period.
Price of Inputs is a factor negatively effecting Supply. This implies decrease in supply at high input prices (because of lower profit margin), increase in supply at low input prices (because of higher profit margin).
Increase in Supply means rightwards shift in upward sloping supply curve, Decrease in Supply means leftwards shift in upward sloping supply curve.
Steel is an input used in car manufacturing; so increase in steel price will decrease car supply & shift the supply curve leftwards. This will create excess demand/ deficient supply/ shortage of cars in the market at old equilibrium price.
This shortage will then create competition among buyers & increase price, which will contract demand & expand supply - establishing new equilibrium.
Answer:
$16,650
Explanation:
The computation for the market value of one contract is shown below:
= Size of the contract × current quoted price
where,
The Size of the contract is 50,000 lbs
and, the current quoted price is 0.333
So, the market value of one contract
= 50,000 lbs × 33.3 ÷ 100
= $16,650
hence, the market value of one contract is $16,650
