Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: For the 10th worker, the marginal revenue product is $120 per day.

If she hires 9 workers then the store can sell 200 pounds of produce per day

If she hires 10 workers then the store can sell 230 pounds of produce per day

Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker = 230 - 200 = 30 pounds of produce per day

Store earns = $4 for each pound

Therefore, the marginal revenue product for the 10th worker = selling price of each pound × Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker

= $4 × 30

=$120

Assume that the labor market for barbers is competitive and that it is differentiated into two groups:
ehidna [41]

Answer and Explanation:

I will go through each and every option explaining the reasons and what option would be the best:

The (a) part says 'difference in wages will eventually disappear since a haircut is a homogeneous good' - This is not true because even though it is an homogeneous product, some customers do have a strong preference for barbers who are not going bald. Therefore, they know their worth and they would want to capitalize on that and get paid just a bit more than bald barbers.

The (b) part says 'barbershops that hire barbers with hair will be able to charge a higher price for a haircut to those consumers who have a strong preference for barbers with hair'. - If the barbershop charges higher price for barbers that have hair then the customers will prefer bald barbers as the questions mentions that there is high competition and since it is an homogeneous, customers would be willing to save money and get their haircut from some other barber.

The (c) part says 'barbershops that hire bald barbers will always be much more profitable' - Not necessarily. The reason is that some customers have a strong preference for barbers who are not bald and therefore, that would help barbershops who have barbers with hair to be a bit more profitable as some additional customers would want their services.

The (d) part says 'barbershops that hire barbers with hair will always be much more profitable' - This is the best option and the reason for it is because some customers have a strong preference for barbers with hair and that would help the barbershop to earn more. They would have the customers who already indifferent to whoever cuts their hair and in addition to that, they would also have the customers who have their preference.

Hence the answer is D.

b) December 31, 2014 Owner's equity = 420,000

Explanation:

Accounting Equation Formula: Owner's Equity = Assets - Liabilities  

A) Way to Go LLC December 31, 2013

Owner's Equity = Assets – Liabilities

Owner's Equity = 669,000 – 161,000

Owner's Equity = 508,000

Owner's Equity = Assets – Liabilities

Owner's Equity = (669,000-127,000) – (161,000-39,000)

Owner's Equity = 420,000

You own one call option with an exercise price of $30 on Nadia stock. This stock is currently selling for $27.80 a share but is
Shalnov [3]

Answer: 0.755

Explanation:

From the information given, the current per share value of the option if it expires in one year will be calculated as follows:

Firstly, we calculate the present value which will be:

= $28 / ( 1 + 0.05 )

= $28/1.05

= $26.667

The number of options needed will be:

= ( 34 - 28 )/ ( 4-0)

= 6/4

= 1.5

Therefore,

27.80 = (1.5 x Co) + [28 / (1+0.05)]

27.80 = 1.5Co + (28/1.05)

27.80 = 1.5Co + 26.667

1.5Co = 28.0 - 26.667

1.5Co = 1.1333

Co = 0.755

Therefore, the answer is 0.755
