are considering renting an electric saw. It costs $20/hour to rent an electric saw. You estimate it will take 6 hours to build the ramp. If you decide to use your saw, which is a handsaw, you will not have to pay anything to rent an electric saw, but it will take 15 hours to build the ramp.

Answer:

(a) $500

(b) $620

(c) $180

(d) $72

Explanation:

Explicit costs refers to the which are incurred during running the business and these costs affects the profitability of the company.

Implicit costs refers to the opportunity cost of selecting some other alternative.

(a) Here, the explicit cost is the cost of purchasing materials = $500

(b) If I rent an electric saw, then the explicit cost is as follows:

= Purchasing cost of material + (Rent × No. of hours to build ramp)

= $500 + ($20 × 6 )

= $500 + $120

= $620

(c) If I use a handsaw, then the implicit cost is as follows:

= Hours to build ramp × A job pays $12 per hour

= 15 × $12

= $180

(d) If I rent an electric saw, then the implicit cost is as follows:

= Hours to build ramp × A job pays $12 per hour

= 6 × $12

= $72

The growth rate of Nominal  GDP from 2007 to 2008 is 100%.

Nominal GDP is the gross domestic product of a country that is calculated using current year prices. It included real GDP and inflation.

Growth rate in GDP = (nominal GDP in 2008 / nominal GDP in 2007) - 1

Nominal GDP in 2007 = (60 x 100) + (15 x 20)

= $6000 + $300

= $6,300

Nominal GDP in 2008 = (60 x 200) + (12 x 50)

$12,000 + 600

= $12,600

Growth rate = ($12,600 / 6,300) - 1 = 100%

a boy is three years younger than his sister. two years ago he was two-thirds of his sister's age. what are their present ages ​
padilas [110]

Answer:

The boy: 8 years old

The sister: 11 years old

Explanation:

We assume that the age at present of the boy is x (years old).

As he is younger than his sister 3 years, so that his sister's present age is great than x 3 years

=> Her present age is: x + 3 (years old)

Two years ago, the boy is younger than present two years

=> The boy's age two years ago is: x - 2 (years old)

Similarly, the sister's age two years ago is: (x+3)-2 = x + 1 (years old)

As given, two years ago he was two-thirds of his sister's age, so that we have:

<em>The boy's age two years ago = </em>\frac{2}{3}<em> × the sister's age two years ago</em>

⇒ x - 2 = \frac{2}{3}(x+1)

⇒ x - 2 = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{2}{3}

⇒ x - \frac{2}{3}x =  \frac{2}{3} + 2

⇒ \frac{1}{3} x = \frac{8}{3}

⇒ x = \frac{8}{3}. 3 = 8

=> x + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11

So the present age of the boy is 8 years old, of the sister is 11 years old
