The answer is explained in detail below
Explanation:
Labor, L = 2000; Capital, K = 3000
Labour constraint,
Capital constraint ,
Solving the equation further, we get
- The range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food is 2/3 and 2
- Low cloth production → economy will use relatively more labor to produce cloth → opportunity cost of cloth is 2/3rd units of food.
- High cloth production → economy dips on labor → taking capital away from food production → raising opportunity cost of cloth to 2 units of food.
- If relative price of cloth lies between 2/3 and 2 units of food, the economy produces both goods.
- If the price of cloth decreases below 2/3 → complete specialization in food production → low compensation for producing cloth
- If the price of cloth rises above 2 → complete specialization in cloth production → low compensation for producing food
The challenge of indirect benefits occurs when the social, economic, or environmental benefits of a company's sustainability commitments do not directly benefit primary customers or clients.
<u>Explanation:</u>
An indirect gain is a profit which can not be directly measured but is still appreciated-as opposed to the more readily quantified direct benefits like decreased headcount or increased revenue. The indirect advantages progress only when the customers or clients are also benefited, otherwise one or another day the failure of such tactics, destruction of image of firm, etc would happen.
Labor productivity is the best illustration of a technology's indirect gain; greater performance does not necessarily contribute to the elimination of an ongoing cost element but is understood in the context that it helps workers to do their roles better and quicker.
Answer:
Some people would be willing to make a large sacrifice in order to help a loved one = Consistent with the Predictions of Traditional Economic Models.
Some people choose to work fewer hours after receiving a raise at work = Consistent with the Predictions of Traditional Economic Models.
Some people prefer to spend an hour doing a task tomorrow to half an hour doing a task today, although the opportunity cost of their time is the same in both periods = Reserved for Behavioral Economics.
Some people treat $70 they earn differently from $70 they win from a lottery ticket = Reserved for Behavioral Economics.
Explanation:
The behaviors of people generally cannot completely be predicted. However, there are certain suggestions made on the behaviors of people by the traditional economic framework as well as the behavioral economists. These suggestions have been used by different professional to qualify the behaviors of people in a certain way (as illustrated in the answers above).
Answer:
COGS = $120,000
Explanation:
We have to determine the average cost per unit:
- 10,000 units at $3 per unit, total cost $30,000
- 20,000 units at $6 per unit, total cost $120,000
There are 30,000 units with a total cost of $150,000. The average cost per unit = $150,000 / 30,000 units = $5 per unit
On August 15, 24,000 units were sold and the COGS was $120,000 (= 24,000 units x $5 per unit)
