Why is it important for the balance of payments to balance?
Rudiy27

Answer:

A country's balance of payments tells you whether it saves enough to pay for its imports. ... A balance of payments deficit means the country imports more goods, services and capital than it exports. It must borrow from other countries to pay for its imports. In the short-term, that fuels the country's economic growth.

Clem Oatley could grow wheat and barley. He could grow 75 bushels of wheat or 125 bushels of barley using the same resources on
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Clem should specialise in wheat production because he has higher profits there

Explanation:

Clem needs to make a decision on the product that will maximise his profits and not just the number of units of products he can manufacture.

If he produces only wheat he will have profit of 75 bushels * $2 = $150

If he produces only barley his profit will be 125 bushels * $0.80 = $100

This shows that wheat is more profitable for Clem. Even though he can produce more units of barley.

A manufacturing firm is considering two locations for a plant to produce a new product. The two locations have fixed and variabl
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1 company to be in different is  15000 units

2 cost =  approximate  $300000

3 Total annual costs  = approximate $380,000

4  cost is less for phoenix and  Phoenix is the ideal location

5 Cost advantage = $18,000 so closed to $20000

Explanation:

given data

Atlanta fixed costs (annual) = 80000

variable costs (per unit) = 20

Phoenix  fixed costs = 140000

variable costs = 16

solution

we consider here output level = x

and price will be = p

so here profit for location will be

profit = Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed costs   .............1

so here Atlanta profit is  

Profit = px - 20x - 80000     ..................2

and Phoenix profit is  

Profit = px - 16.1x - 140,000      ...................3

so now company to be in different is  

px - 20x - 80000 = px - 16.1x - 140,000

solve we get x here

x =  15,384.62  = 15000 units

and  

and now annual costs for phoenix will be as

annual cost =  Variable cost + Fixed     ...........4

cost = 16.1 × 10,000 + 140,000

cost = 161,000 + 140,000

cost = $301,000 = approximate  $300000

and

Total annual costs will be as

Total annual costs = 20 × 15,384.62 + 80,000

Total annual costs = $387,692.3 = approximate $380,000  

and

Annual demand = 20,000 units

so  

Cost for Atlanta  = 20 × 20000 + 80,000

Cost for Atlanta  = $480,000

Cost for Phoenix = 16.1 × 20000 + 140,000

Cost for Phoenix = $462,000

so cost is less for phoenix and  Phoenix is the ideal location

and

now Cost advantage will be

Cost advantage  = $480,000 - 462,000

Cost advantage = $18,000 so closed to $20000
