The market for corn in country A is highly competitive. At the current market price of​ $5/bushel there is a shortage of​ 100,00
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The answer is: A) Farmers will substitute the production of other agricultural goods? (like soybeans) with corn.

Explanation:

When the price of a certain product increases so steeply, new suppliers will enter the market to offer their products.

Since farmers can only produce one crop at the time in a certain lot, they will always tend to produce the crop that gives them the highest profit. In this case if corn becomes very expensive, it is reasonable to assume that more farmers will produce corn by substituting others crops (like soybean or wheat).

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

b. $22.75

Explanation:

We know that

Contribution margin per unit= Sales price per unit - variable cost per unit

Since the selling price is $35

And, the contribution margin is 35%

Therefore, the contribution margin per unit would be

= $35 × 35 per cent

= $12.25

Now add these figures in the formula above.

Hence, the value would be equal to

= $35 - $12.25

= $22.75

The inventory and labor costs are included in the variable cost

C. is correct as we can see in the Graph 1, the increse in the demand would generate a higher price but it would make the demand go back to D1

D. is incorrect because if coffee drinkers consume more coffee this monht the price would lower.
