Answer:

consume 8 units of A and 12 units of B

Explanation:

given data

prices of A = $1.50

prices of B = $1

Budget constraint = $24

consider data indifference curve

unit A         unit  B

16                 6

12                 8

8                  12

4                  24

solution

As graph, Mr. Chen will buy 8A and 12 B goods.

so Budget constraint is here express as

24 = 8 × $1.50 + 12 × 1.00

so here

MRS = \frac{PB}{PA}  rule  of equilibrium

so here MRS is

MRS = \frac{8}{12}      

\frac{PB}{PA} =  \frac{1.00}{1.50} = \frac{2}{3}  

MRS = \frac{PB}{PA} = \frac{2}{3}

You and a group of friends are planning to visit a theme park, which charges $60 for admission, $100 for a two-day pass, and $13
enyata [817]

Answer:

<u><em>Part 1. </em></u>

  • <em>Average cost per day of a three-day pass</em> =  $53.33/day per person

  • <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day </em>= $190 - $160 = $30 per person

<em />

<em><u>Part 2.</u></em>

  • <em>Group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> = $180

Explanation:

The total <em>cost</em> is the <em>admission charge</em> ($60) plust the cost of the pass ($100 or $130).

For a <em>two-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $100 = $160, per person

For a <em>three-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $130 = $190, per person

<u><em>Part 1. The average cost per day of a three-day pass per person. </em></u>

The <em>average cost</em> is the total cost divided by the number of days.

  • <em>Average cost</em> = $160/3days = $53.33/day per person

The <em>marginal cost of adding the third day</em> per person is found by subtracting the total cost for two days from the total cost for three days:

  • <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day</em> = $190 - $160 = $30 per person

This says that althoud the average cost for the three days is $53.33 the cost of adding the third day is $30, which is much lower; thus, it is a good deal to buy a three-days pass, as they are interested in spending a lot of time there.

<u><em>Part 2. The group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em></u>

<em></em>

Since the <em>marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> is $30 per person, the marginal cost for the 6-person group is 6 times $30:

  • 6 persons × $30/person = $180.

Blake Company purchased two identical inventory items. The item purchased first cost $18.00, and the item purchased second cost
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

c. Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses weighted average than if FIFO were used

Explanation:

To check which answer is correct, we simply evaluate each option step by step.

<u>Option A</u>

Gross margin is the difference between selling price and cost.

Under FIFO gross margin is $14. (32 -18 =14)

Under LIFO gross margin is $13. (32-19 = 13)

Thus statement is incorrect as gross margin is higher if FIFO is used.

<u />

<u>Option B</u>

If FIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $19 as ending inventory will contain product purchased later that is at $19. In contrast, if LIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $18. Thus the statement becomes incorrect that it will be the same.

<u />

<u>Option C</u>

The ending inventory under FIFO is $19.

The ending inventory under LIFO is $18

The endng inventory under AVCO or weighted average will be, 18+19 / 2 = 18.5

Thus the statement is correct as the ending inventory under weighted average $18.5 is lower than ending inventory under FIFO $19. So, C is the correct Answer.
