Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: the Macro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing fishing boats and the Micro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing guava jelly.

Explanation:

To begin with the term of <em>''comparative advantage''</em> is refer to the quality of one country in comparison with another to produce in a better way, a more eficient way, a good. Therefore that when a country has a comparative advantage over another country it means that the first country can produce more of a good with less resources that the second country.

That is why, that the Macro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing fishing boats over the Micro islands due to the fact that there is a very little difference with the other country meanwhile the Micro Islands have a comparative advatange in the production of guava jelly due to the amount of goods that it can produce in the same amount of time with the great amount difference in comparison with the Macro Islands. Therefore that one country chooses to produce the good in which it is better in comparison with the other.

Answer:

$82,580

Explanation:

We can calculate the estimated amount of inventory destroyed in the flood by deducting the cost of goods sold by the cost of goods available for sale.

DATA

Beginning Inventory  = $215,950  

Inventory purchased  = $192,730

 Sales = $543,500

Calculation

Inventory destroyed  Iestimated) =    Cost of Goods available for sale - Cost of Goods Sold

Inventory destroyed  Iestimated) =  $408,680  - $326,100

Inventory destroyed  Iestimated) = $82,580

Working

Cost of Goods available for sale  = Beginning Inventory + Inventory purchased

Cost of Goods available for sale = $215,950   + $192,730

  Cost of Goods available for sale = $408,680

Cost of Goods Sold  = Sales  - Gross Profits

Cost of Goods Sold = $543,500  - ($543400 x 40%)

Cost of Goods Sold = $ 326,100
