Answer:
1. $2,296
2. $19.58
3. Total labor cost = Fixed cost + (variable cost × employee hour)
Explanation:
The computations are shown below:
1. The fixed cost would be
= High labor cost - (High employee hours × Variable rate per hour)
= $10,324 - (410 hours × $19.58)
= $10,324 - $8,028
= $2,296
2. Variable rate per hour = (High labor cost - low labor cost) ÷ (High employee hours - low employee hours)
= ($10,324 - $6,800) ÷ (410 hours - 230 hours)
= $3,524 ÷ 180 hours
= $19.58
3. The cost formula would be
Total labor cost = Fixed cost + (variable cost × employee hour)
= $2,296 + ($19.58 × employee hour)

Answer:
b. excludable and rival in consumption
Explanation:
For categorizing the goods as private or public, the two terms we need to understand i.e. rivalry and excludability
The rivalry refers only one person could consume it no other has the right to consume the same thing
While on the other hand, the excludable arise when you stop someone from using a particular thing
So here in the given case, the option b is most appropriate as it is fit to the scenario
Complete Question:
A. According to census data, the percentage of Southville's population that lives in rural areas has gradually been shrinking.
B. The standards for obtaining a mortgage loan in Southville have been more stringent compared to many other countries.
C. Prior to the crisis, the prices of existing homes also increased in proportion to the prices of new homes in Southville.
D. A large proportion of home buyers in Southville were individuals who already owned one or more houses.
E. The inflation-adjusted real wage in the construction industry increased by 10 percent prior to the crisis.
Answer and Explanation:
Options A and D would weaken Bob's argument. The reason why option A would weaken Bob's argument would be because Bob said that the population is increasing whereas the according to the census data, the population has gradually been shrinking.
The reason for option D is that the individuals who already owned houses were buying new houses. So what was the need for them to buy additional new houses?
C. When price is too high, people are less willing to purchase the good, so demand is lower when price is higher. (Demand curve is always slopping downwards as a result). As the price is high, producers are more willing to sell their goods (I.e. bonds) which will give them more money per unit good being sold. This will result in Quantity Supplied (Qs) being greater than Quantity Demanded (Qd), and so, there is a surplus of bonds in the market. This will cause a downward pressure to apply on price, so that Qd = Qs eventually.
Hope this helps!
