Answer:

hi your question is incomplete here is the complete question

Consider a lake found in the town of Center Barnstead,

The town has a campground whose visitors use the lake for recreation. The town also has a fish cannery that dumps industrial waste into the lake. This pollutes the lake and makes it a less desirable vacation destination. That is, the fish cannery's waste decreases the campground's economic profit.

Suppose that the fish cannery could use a different production method that involves recycling water. This would reduce the pollution in the lake to levels safe for recreation, and the campground would no longer be affected. If the fish cannery uses the recycling method, then the fish cannery's economic profit is $1,500 per week, and the campground's economic profit is $1,800 per week. If the fish cannery does not use the recycling method, then the fish cannery's economic profit is $2,000 per week, and the campground's economic profit is $1,000 per week. These figures are summarized in the following table.

(Dollars)

No Recycling 2,000 1,000  

Recycling 1,500 1,800  

Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is   .

When the fish cannery uses the recycling method, the campground earns $1,800−$1,000=$800$1,800−$1,000=$800 more per week than it does with no recycling. Therefore, the campground should be willing to pay up to $800 per week for the fish cannery to recycle water. However, the recycling method decreases the fish cannery's economic profit by $2,000−$1,500=$500$2,000−$1,500=$500 per week. Therefore, the fish cannery should be willing to use the recycling method if it is compensated with at least $500 per week.

Suppose the campground has the property rights to the lake. That is, the campground has the right to a clean (unpolluted) lake. In this case, assuming the two firms can bargain at no cost, the fish cannery will   the recycling method and will pay the campground   per week.

Now, suppose the fish cannery has the property rights to the lake, including the right to pollute it. In this case, assuming the two firms can bargain at no cost, the fish cannery will   the recycling method, and the campground will pay the fish cannery   per week.

ANSWER

  • True
  • True

Glascro Company manufactures skis. The management accountant wants to calculate the fixed and variable costs associated with the
Ber [7]

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

We know that

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

From the data given, we can calculate the variable cost using the high-low technique.

Variable cost per unit

=\frac{Total cost at highest level-Total cost at lowest level }{Highest level - Lowest level} \\\\=\frac{16,000-10,000}{1,000-600 } \\

=$15

Lease cost = FC + $15(Machine hours)

Lease cost -$15(Machine hours) = FC

Case,

i) 800 machine hours,

FC = Lease cost - $15(Machine hours)

     = $16,000 -$15(1000) = $1,000
