Answer:
a.Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other countries.
A person has an absolute advantage in production if it produces more quantities of the good when compared with other countries.
Georgeland produces more quantities of both food and clothes when compared to Alland, so it has absolute advantage in both activities .
The opportunity cost of georgeland in producing clothes = 36 / 18=2
The opportunity cost of georgeland producing food = 18 / 36 = 0.5
For Alland,
the opportunity cost of producing clothes = 32 / 16= 2
the opportunity cost of producing food = 16 / 32 = 0.5
Neither countries don't have a comparative advantage in the production of either clothes of food bedside they have the same opportunity costs in both activities.

Answer:
The one time fee that the owner should charge is $1764.71
Explanation:
To calculate the one time fee, we take this as a perpetuity and calculate the value or price of the perpetuity based on the fututre cash flows discounted to today's price by a certain dicount rate.
The discount rate is taken as 8.5% which is also the market interests rate.
The formula for the value/price of the perpetuity is,
Value / Price = Cash flow / Discount rate
Value / Price = 150 / 0.085
Value / Price = $1764.705 rounded off to $1764.71
Answer:
$2.25 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the cost per equivalent is shown below:
= Total conversion cost ÷ total units completed
where,
Total conversion cost is
= Beginning work in process conversion cost + cost of conversion added
= $20,250 + 271,125
= 291,375
And, the number of units is
= Units completed + work in process ending inventory units × completion percentage
= 115,700 units + 23,000 units × 60%
= 115,700 + 13,800
= 129,500 units
So, the cost per equivalent unit for conversion cost is
= $291,375 ÷ 129,500 units
= $2.25 per unit
