The economist's analysis in the scenario painted above incorporates the idea of OPPORTUNITY COST.
Opportunity cost refers to a value or a benefit which must be given up in order to enjoy or acquire another benefit. Because resources are scarce, one always has to make decision about how to use one's resources efficiently. In the scenario given above, Joe had the opportunity to put his money in a fixed deposit account or to use it to buy gold coins; he choose the latter given up the former. Thus, the former, which he gave up is his opportunity cost.<span />
Answer:
The total capacity of the market in core products less the Digby's Deft is 10860 thousand units.
Explanation:
In order to completely answer the question, the complete question is found online. This question was missing some table attachments which are attached with it.
From the table, it is first noted that the core products are listed which are as below:
- Axe
- Bolt
- Buzz
- Deft
- Dim
Now as mentioned in the question, deft is to be ignored so the remaining options are:
- Axe
- Bolt
- Buzz
- Dim
Now the capacities of these are included which are found from the table and are as follow:
Axe=2050
Bolt=1040
Buzz=1040
Dim=1300
So the total capacity of 1 shift is
Axe+Bolt+Buzz+Dim=2050+1040+1040+1300=5430 units
As there are two shifts running so the total capacity is 5430x2=10860
So the total capacity of market in core products less the Digby's Deft is 10860 thousand units.
Answer: A. consumer expectation of an increase in their future income.
Explanation:
The supply curve is simply a graph that shows the relationship that is between the price of a particular good and the amount of quantity that is supplied.
A leftward shift in the supply curve for a good simply means that less of that good is supplied. All tye options will cause less of the goods to be supplied except consumer expectation of an increase in their future income.
Answer:
(a) Assumption

(b) Cause and Effect
If a price of goods falls that is a cause and the effect is that people will consume more of the good.
(c) Cause and effect
As the population grows faster than food supply (cause), mass starvation is predicted to occur which is the resultant effect.
(d) Assumption
The maximization of profit is based on the assumption of theory of production and costs.
