Answer:

Downward sloping curve with 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spices

Explanation:

PPC reflects production combinations (2 goods), which can be produced given same resources & technology. It is downward sloping because of inverse relationship between two goods, one good increase leads to other good decrease - given same resources & technology.

In this case, it is with analogous factors : production possibilities with respect to unlimited ingredients (resources), limited time. Although resources are given to be unlimited, PPC is likely to be downward sloping : because of inverse relationship between goods - based on time constraint (one good increase will withdraw time from other good & reduce it).

The PPC intercept on X & Y axis represents the maximum amount of that axis good, which can be produced. So: it has 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spice axis.

The slope & shape of PPC depends on Marginal Opportunity Cost, which depends on relative efficiency of resources in two goods.

Resources equally efficient - Constant Good Sacrifise Ratio i.e MOC - PPC straight line. Resources unequally efficient - Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from efficient to inefficient good) i.e MOC rising - PPC Concave. Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from inefficient resources to efficient resources) i.e MOC falling - PPC Convex.

If MOC between mini sandwiches & melon spices is constant, PPC is straight line . If MOC between them is rising, PPC is concave. If MOC between them is falling, PPC is convex.

(b) Cite 3 reasons for and 3 reasons against rebuilding Greensburg as a “green town.”
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The following are 3 against reasons for the reconstruction of Greensburg as the "green city":

Explanation:

Following are the reasons and the counter reasons:

Reasons:

  • Its tornado was something which will never be large as ever before, in which the city has been harmed and 95% of his residences have been destroyed. It also offers you to recreate the green city.  
  • The creation of a green city would also enable many cities to the devastated area to integrate with green technology.  
  • The Greenburg would become an icon with style as well as a prototype for the building of a clean energy city.

Counter Reason:  

  • The green tech isn't cheap and it would put pressure on the public resources.  
  • When a tornado of the same size hit Greenburg, then nobody would cause a serious source of financial and private assets.  
  • The city should give priority to tornado refugee camps that are capable of protecting public goods instead of building a green culture.

yaroslaw [1]

Question Completion:

Options:

a. There must be at least two parties.

b. Each party is free to accept or reject the exchange offer.

c. Each party believes it is appropriate or desirable to deal with the other party.

d. Each party has something that might be of value to the other party.

Answer:

c. Each party believes it is appropriate or desirable to deal with the other party.

Explanation:

Criteria C is the criteria that will most directly relate to Deon's cancellation of the sponsorships.  Business deals and relationships cannot be established or allowed to subsist when it becomes inappropriate or undesirable to deal with the other party because of controversial activities.  This is more so when the activities involve political and social justice beliefs and differences.  Ordinarily, business partners should not allow such personal prejudices to becloud their relationships.  The best approach, therefore, is for business partners to keep their political and social justice beliefs personal and not make them public issues.
