Answer: a). Spain
b). none
c). 2.4
Explanation: a). Absolute advantage occurs when a country produces more of a good than the other country. In this case, Spain produces 50 units of Tractors while, Bolivia produces only 30 units of Tractors. Thus, Since Spain is producing more it has an absolute advantage in Tractors.
b). Both the countries are producing equal units of Cotton. Thus, we can say that none of them has an absolute advantage in cotton production.
c. Opportunity cost is the cost of the lost alternative. When Spain produces Tractors it is sacrificing production of Cotton. So, opportunity cost on 1 unit of Tractor will be,
Thus, 2.4 units of cotton which is given up is the opportunity cost of Spain for producing 1 unit of Tractor.

Price floor.
A floor, in real life, is at the bottom, below you — this then makes sense in business to say that a ‘floor’ represents the minimum value of something — in this case the price of video games.
In real life, a ceiling is above you, indicating that it could be used as a representative of a maximum value of something, like the price of a video game.
So, if we were to say that $120 was the ‘price ceiling’ for video games, then we would basically be saying that $120 is the most a video game could cost. If we were to say that $100 was the ‘price floor’ for video games, we would be saying that $100 is the minimum value that the price of a video game could assume.
Answer:
($3,000)
An outflow
Explanation:
The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.
The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.
In cash flow statements, an increase in assets(other than cash) is treated as a cash outflow while a decrease is considered as an inflow of cash.
Hence if accounts receivables balance increases from $45,000 i 2018 to $48,000 in 2019, the change of $3,000 will be shown as an outflow.
