Answer:

1,000,000

Explanation:

As there are constant returns to scale the cost to produce a greater output will grow following a linear fucntion thus,

if 100 units units are produced at a cost of 200,000 dolllars

then 500 units will be produced five times that amount:

200,000  x 500/100 = 200,000 x 5 = 1,000,000

The total cost for 500 units will be a million dollars

Answer:

Constant returns to scale is when a proportional increase in inputs such as capital and labour cause the same proportional increase in output. Constant returns to scale occurs when an increase in number of inputs leads to an equivalent increase in the output.

From the question, to determine the cost of producing 500 units;

The cost of producing 100 units = $200,000

The cost of producing 500 units = ?

= ($200,000 × 500) ÷ 100

= $100,000,000 ÷ 100

= $1,000,000

The cost of producing 500 units = $1,000,000

"Falling oil prices have caused a sharp decrease in the supply of oil." Speaking precisely, and using terms as they are defined
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The answer is: D) The quotation is incorrect: A decrease in price causes a decrease in quantity supplied, not a decrease in supply.

Explanation:

A decrease in the price of a product or service will always decrease the quantity supplied and increase the quantity demanded of the product. The terms supply and demand apply to the entire curve, not an specific point in them.  

For example, the equilibrium point for milk is 5 million gallons sold at $3 each. If the government suddenly decides that it will place a price ceiling for milk at $2 per gallon (may use argument that it is a necessity good essential for the well being of children) the quantity demanded for milk will rise but the quantity supplied will fall.

That is because not every dairy business will be able to produce and sell milk at $2 and still make a profit (or meet their expected profit levels), so they will either lower their milk production (make substitute products) or go out of business.
