Answer: Increase the number of B consumed and decrease the number of A consumed.

Explanation: The utility maximization rule basically states that if the marginal utility gained from product A is greater than the marginal utility gained from product B, then more of product A should be consumed and less of product B should be consumed in order to maximize the utility per unit of money spent.

Therefore, in order for Paul to increase utility with the same amount of money, he should increase spending on the product that offers the higher marginal utility, meaning that he should spend more on the product that offers more satisfaction.

The product that offers more satisfaction in the scenario above is product B, because its marginal utility per dollar is 1, which is greater then the marginal utility of product a of 0.6 marginal utility per dollar.

Hence, Paul should increase consumption of product B and decrease consumption of product A.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

But before that the depreciation expense per year is

Depreciation per year = (Cost - Residual value) ÷ Useful life

= ($38,080 - $2,800) ÷ 6 years

= $5,880

1.Net book value as on disposal date is

= $38,080 - ($5,880  × 3)

= $20,440

2.

We know that

Gain on sales = (Sales - Book value)

Gain = $(20,400 - 20,400) = 0

a. Loss = $13,000 - $20,440 = -$7,440

b. Loss = $10,000 - $20,440 = -$10,440

Triss [41]

The time required to get a total amount of $3,300.00 with compounded interest on a principal of $1,650.00 at an interest rate of 6.2% per year and compounded 12 times per year is 11.209 years. hence the answer is

A. 2001

<h3>Compound Interest Calculation</h3>

(about 11 years 3 months)

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 6.2/100

r = 0.062 per year,

Then, solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

t = ln(3,300.00/1,650.00) / ( 12 × [ln(1 + 0.062/12)] )

t = ln(3,300.00/1,650.00) / ( 12 × [ln(1 + 0.0051666666666667)] )

t = 11.209 years
