Answer: The opportunity cost of producing 1 apple will be 1 orange.
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is defined as the loss or cost of another alternative when another alternative is being chosen by an economic agent.
In this scenario, the opportunity cost of producing every additional apple will be 1 orange due to the fact that as there's an increase in the production of apple from 80 to 90, there'll be a reduction in the production of orange from 30 to 20.
This indicates that for the increase of 10 apples, there's a reduction of 10 oranges which implies that an increase of 1 apple brings about a reduction by 1 orange.

Answer:
Cost of equity = 8.22%
Explanation:
Cost of equity = Dividend per share /current market value + growth rate of dividend
Cost of equity = 2/90 + 6%
Cost of equity = 0.0222 + 6%
Cost of equity =0.0222 + 0.06
Cost of equity = 0.0822
Cost of equity = 8.22%
Answer:
80 % of materials ; 43 % of conversion costs
Explanation:
The FIFO method traces equivalent units for materials and conversion costs for the following categories :
- Opening Work in Process units
- Units started and completed
- Ending Work in Process units
So the units not completed from last months are the first to be completed during the month (hence To finish Opening Work in Process). During the year there are units started and completed (hence Units Started and Completed) and units started that never gets completed (hence Ending Work in Process units).
All these physical units need to be expressed to the percentage of work done on them - equivalent units.
The question is focusing on Number 3 - Ending Work in Process units. So 80 % of materials and 43 % of conversion costs were added during October for these units.
Answer:
-$28.8.
Explanation:
Note, we were told,
- to assume the cost of a therm is $0.30
- the family uses 600 therms of energy annually.
<u>Savings on old furnace:</u>
- 600 * $0.30 * 0.80 (or written as 80%) = $144
<u>Savings on new furnace:</u>
- 600 * $0.30 * 0.96 (or written as 96%) = $172.8
Difference: $144 - $172.8 = -$28.8.
