Answer:
The incomplete part of the question is "Using a cap-and-trade system of tradable emission allowances will eliminate half of the sulfur dioxide pollution at a cost of $1 million per year. If the permits are not tradable, what will be the cost of eliminating half of the pollution? If permits cannot be traded, then the cost of the pollution reduction will be $1 million per year." The full question is attched as picture as well
1) Tradable permit system
Then lower MAC firm will abate the all pollution units
Then as MAC1 = $250, MAC2 = $275
Firm 1 = Consolidated electric
Firm 2 = Commonwealth utility
Then 1 will sell all permits to 2, at a price between $250 & $275.
So total cost of abatement of 20 units = MAC1 * 20
= $250 * 20 Unit
= $5,000
2) Non-tradable permits
Total cost = MC1*10 + MC2*10
= $2,500 + $2,750
= $5,250
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
If workers demand and receive higher real wages the cost of production will rise. This is because workers(labor) is an input of production. The wages is the reward for the direct labor for work done. So increase in wages lead to an increase cost of production.
Due to this, the short-run aggregate supply curve shifts leftward i.e reduces the market supply because producers will produce less at a high cost of production and produce more at a lower cost of production.
Answer:
$60000
Explanation:
Given: Sales = $300000.
Cost of goods available for sale= $270000.
The gross profit ratio= 30%
First finding the gross profit out of total sales.
Gross profit= 
Gross profit= 
∴ Cost of goods sold= 
Cost of goods sold= 
Cost of goods sold= 
Hence, cost of goods sold=
Now, finding estimated cost of the ending inventory.
Cost of ending inventory= 
⇒ Cost of ending inventory= 
∴ Cost of ending inventory= 
Hence, estimated cost of the ending inventory under the gross profit method would be $60000.
Answer:
c. It depends on the appraisal problem. The appraiser should apply all appropriate units of comparison, explain differences in wide variation in the results, and choose the most reliable unit.
Explanation:
The three (3) main methods used for the valuation or appraisal of real-estate properties are;
I. Income approach.
II. Cost approach.
III. Sales comparison approach.
A sales comparison approach can be defined as a real-estate appraisal technique that is typically based on comparing a property to other recently sold real-estate properties with similar characteristics. Thus, this appraisal method or technique requires that the real-estate property being appraised should be in current use and fall within the same area or locality as the other recently sold real-estate properties.
In the sales comparison approach, the appraised property should mimic the market behavior of other real-estate properties sold recently.
Answer:
Option (E) is correct.
Explanation:
Allocative efficiency is created when the gap between marginal benefit and marginal cost is maximum. The marginal benefit is the benefit that a consumer can get by consuming an additional unit of a commodity and the marginal cost is the cost that a producer incurred by producing an additional unit.
Hence, the allocative efficiency is achieved where the difference between these two terms is maximized.
