If a competitive firm can sell a bushel of soybeans for $25 and it has an average variable cost of $24 per bushel and the margin
Liula [17]

Answer: reduce output.

Explanation:

In a competitive market, firms do not have control over the price that they sell their goods in the market but they do have control over their costs. It is recommended to produce/ sell goods at a quantity where Marginal Revenue will equal Marginal cost (MR = MC).

In a Competitive Market, Price is the same as Marginal revenue which means that Marginal revenue here is $25 and the Marginal Cost is $26. At this quantity of output, the Marginal Cost is larger than the Marginal revenue.

Company should therefore reduce output to a quantity where Marginal Cost will equal Marginal revenue.

Masja [62]
When identical units of an item are purchased at different costs: <span>an inventory cost flow method must be used under both a perpetual and a periodic inventory system.

A perpetual inventory system will update your inventory on hand after each sale or purchase of inventory is made.  A periodic inventory system is updated periodically, meaning, a company will give a time period they would like their sales and purchases to update in and the system will perform that. Both systems are great for a business but it's their option of how they are generated.

Which is not one of the five fundamental questions?
astra-53 [7]
Economics in many cases is an exact science, but usually it is a practical one that has applications. Thus there are some practical goals that need to be answered with the use of economics and an easy to summarize form of them are the five fundamental questions of economics. 3 of the choices above are such fundamental questions; determining the way of production, the receiver of the production as well as the ways in which the economic system can change are of fundamental importance to the science of economics. The other 2 questions are: What products will be produced ? and How can we foster progress?
Choice d is a pretty important question too (that falls somewhat under a) but the fact that it mentions the government specifically makes it less general than the other propositions so it is not a fundamental question.
