Answer:

Ricardo’s Theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the term used to define the ability of an individual, firm or country to produce a particular good or service at a lower opportunity cost than that if it’s competitors or trade partners. Opportunity cost is the benefit lost from the second best alternative.

When a country can produce a product more efficiently (i.e maximum output using minimum resources) than that of its trade partners, it is known as that it has absolute advantage in that product. India tends to have absolute advantage in both business processes outsourcing as well as producing agricultural commodities as it is mentioned that it can produce both of these more efficiently than the United States.

However, although it has absolute advantage in both, it is still less efficient in producing agricultural commodities when compared to business process outsourcing. In other words, if it attempts to produce agricultural commodities in-house, the benefit lost from the second best alternative: business process outsourcing is high. The opportunity cost is higher when it produces agricultural commodities than it is when it does business process outsourcing. Hence, due to the law of comparative advantage, it chooses to specialize in business process outsourcing and imports agricultural commodities.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

$40.875

Explanation:

Given that,

Selling Expenses = $ 9,600

Merchandise Inventory on December 31 = 33,000

Merchandise Inventory on January 1 = 47,000

Purchases of merchandise = 83,500

Rent for store = 12,100

Sales commissions = 7,300

Sales revenue = 168,500

Cost of goods sold:

= Beginning merchandise inventory + Merchandise purchase - Ending merchandise inventory

= $47,000 + $83,500 + $33,000

= $163,500

If Crabapples sold 4,000 boxes of dry fruit during the year, then the cost per box of dry fruits is:

= Cost of goods sold ÷ Number of boxes sold

= $163,500 ÷ 4,000

= $40.875
