Answer:

3 workers

Explanation:

At optimal point, wage = Price * Marginal Product of Labour (MPL)

When 3 workers are employed,

Since wage is given = 25

And price = 4

When 3 workers are hired, wage is close to price * MPL because wage = 25 and p*MPL = 24

                                OR

salary paid = $25*3 = $75

Revenue generated = 24*$4= $96

This combination provides the best profit margin which is 96 - 75 = $21.

Answer:

Bank B for the car loan and Bank A for the savings account

Explanation:

The reason why this would be your answer is because when you are opening a savings account, you want to make sure that the interest is high. However, when you get a new car, you want to make sure that the interest is low. Bank B provides a low interest rate, while Bank A provides a high interest rate.

Why are the two the opposite? Here's the answer:

Why you should get a high interest rate for a savings account:

You should get a high interest rate for the savings account because the interest you have for the savings account is the money that the bank will give you, so it's pretty much free money that the bank is giving you for having your money saved in their bank. If you want to get more money from the bank because of your savings account, then you should find one with a high interest rate

pogonyaev

Answer:

"2000 units" is the right solution.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Transferred from WIP,

= 53,000 units

Units sold,

= 61,000 units

Beginning inventory,

= 10000 units

Now,

The total number of finished goods will be:

= ( Beginning \Inventory + Transferred \ from \ WIP - Units \ Sold )

On substituting the values, we get

= ( 10000 + 53000 - 61000 )

= 2000 \ Units

ABC, a U.S. company sends by fax an offer to sell to XYZ, a French company, 1,000,000 widgets for $1.00 a widget. XYZ sends back
galben [10]

Answer:

The correct option is B. False.

Further explanation is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Offer From ABC Company to XYZ Company:

1,000,000 widgets to sell.

Selling Price of 1 widget = $1.00

Total Price = $1,000,000

Counter Offer from XYZ company to ABC Company.

Selling Price = $0.75

Total Price = 0.75 x 1,000,000 = $750,000

But in the end, ABC company sold its widgets to GHK company.

The correct option to this question is false.

This case is false because here ABC sends an original offer of $1 but XYZ sent a counter offer of $0.75. This counter offer was then duly rejected by ABC.

XYZ cannot again confirm and accept the original offer of ABC because they have already rejected your claim and thus XYZ have to wait until ABC make them another offer.
