Carlos is a hard-working college senior. One Saturday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 100 practice problems fo

r his physics course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem.
Time Total Problems Answered
8:00 AM 0
9:00 AM 40
10:00 AM 70
11:00 AM 90
Noon 100
Use the table to answer the following questions.

The marginal, or additional, gain from Carlos’s second hour of work, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM, isproblems.

The marginal gain from Carlos’s fourth hour of work, from 11:00 AM to noon, isproblems.

Later, the teaching assistant in Carlos’s physics course gives him some advice. "Based on past experience," the teaching assistant says, "working on 25 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour." For simplicity, assume students always cover the same number of pages during each hour they spend reading.

Given this information, in order to use his 4 hours of study time to get the best exam score possible, how many hours should he have spent working on problems, and how many should he have spent reading?

a. 1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading
b. 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading
c. 3 hours working on problems, 1 hour reading
d. 4 hours working on problems, 0 hours reading

Lena [83]

Answer:

$6 per unit

Explanation:

using the weighted average method:

units completed 92,000 x 100% (both materials and conversion)

ending work in progress 24,000

  • materials 90% completed = 21,600
  • conversion 40% completed = 9,600

equivalent unit conversion costs = total conversion costs / total equivalent units of conversion

  • total conversion costs = $20,320 + $15,240 + $$182,880 + $391,160 = $609,600
  • total equivalent units of conversion = 92,000 + 9,600 = 101,600

equivalent unit conversion costs = $609,600 / 101,600 units = $6 per unit

II. Free trade area

III. Common market

IV. Political union

VI. Economic union

An economic union can be defined as a trade bloc which comprises of both customs union and a common market.

In a common market, there are free movement of the factors of production and no barrier to trade between member countries. Also, a common market establishes a common external trade policy for non-member countries.

However, an economic union entails even closer economic integration and cooperation among member countries than a common market because it combines customs union and a common market.
