ns, are arguing over government intervention. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate:
Caroline: The usefulness of government intervention in the economy is a long-standing issue that economists continue to debate.

Antonio: I feel that government involvement in the economy should be reduced because government programs cause more harm than good.

Caroline: While I do agree that government programs can be inefficient, I really think they are necessary to help the less fortunate.

2. Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?

ANTONII [103]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1) Option A. differences in values

2) Option C. Tariffs and import quotas generally reduce economic welfare

Explanation:

1) Difference in values which can also be called value conflicts are due to variations in belief systems. I.e. when the belief systems of two groups do not allign. While Antonio believes that government programmes should be reduced because they cause more harm than good, Caroline is of the opinion that despite the inefficiency of government programmes, they are still necessary for the less fortunate. This disagreement is as a result of value conflict.

2) Both economists agree on the inefficiency of government programmes. The focal point of Caroline's argument is that government's intervention in the economy is needed for the less fortunate. Based on this premise, two economies chosen at random will most likely agree to the proposition that tariffs and import quotas generally reduce economic welfare.

Corporation makes one product. July August September October Budgeted unit sales 8,500 9,000 13,900 11,100 - The ending finished
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

$133,704

Explanation:

The budgeted required production for August is computed as follows:

Budgeted sales in units 9,000

Add desired ending inventory 5,560

(September sales of 13,900 units × 40%

= 5,560 units)

Total needs 14,560

Less beginning inventory 3,600

(August sales of 9,000 units × 40%

= 3,600 units.)

Required production 10,960

The budgeted raw material purchases for August are computed as follows:

Required production in units of finished goods 10,960

Units of raw materials needed per unit of finished goods 6

Units of raw materials needed to meet production(10,960×6) 65,760

Add desired units of ending raw materials inventory 7,688

(76,680 pounds × 10% = 7,668 pounds)

Total units of raw materials needed 73,428

Less units of beginning raw materials inventory 6,526

( 65,760 pounds × 10% = 6,576 pounds)

Units of raw materials to be purchased 66,852

The budgeted cost of raw material purchases for August is computed as follows:

Units of raw materials to be purchased (a)$66,852

Unit cost of raw materials (b)$2.00

Cost of raw materials to be purchased (a) × (b)$133,704

Jeff recently drove to visit his parents who live 160 miles away. on his way there his average speed was 9 miles per hour faster
olya-2409 [2.1K]
To answer this item, we let x be Jeff's speed when going back home. With this representation, the speed from home to his parents is x + 9. The total time it took him for the trip is 8 hours. The time of each trip can be calculated by dividing the distance by time. Such concept is presented below.
 
                             8 hours = 160/x + 160/(x + 9)

The value of x from the equation is 36. Thus, his speeds were 36 miles/h and 45 miles/h.
