Answer:

$2,400

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense under the activity-based depreciation method is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($12,000 - $4,000) ÷ (20,000 units)

= ($8,000) ÷ (20,000 units)

= $0.4 per unit

Now for the first year, it would be

= Production units in first year × depreciation per unit

= 6,000 units × $0.4

= $2,400

o-na [289]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Brazil only.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the ability of an organization or individual to produce at lower opportunity costs. This is achieved by introducing efficient productivity strategies or achieving economies of scale.

For the case given, the comparative advantage of Brazil and Chile is based on labor productivity only. Then:

  • <em>The comparative advantage of Chile on sugar</em> = \frac{2 units of sugar}{5 units of coffee} = 0.4
  • <em>The comparative advantage of Brazil on sugar </em>= \frac{1 unit of sugar}{2 units of coffee} = 0.5

Thus, <em>Brazil has a comparative advantage over Chile on sugar.</em>
