Answer:
A) Information asymmetry.
Explanation:
An information asymmetry can be defined as a situation where there is an imbalance of information between two parties in their knowledge of important points, factors and details. Thus, because one party has more information or knowledge than the other, this usually results in an inefficient outcome and or failure.
The theory of information asymmetry was developed and introduced by three (3) notable Nobel prize winning economists, namely; Michael Spence, George Akerlof and Joseph Stiglitz.
In this scenario, Matthew a divisional manager at Venus Inc. reports to the CEO of the company. Matthew has more employees working for him than required and he has not told the CEO about this, even though there are other departments that are in need of more employees.
<em>Hence, the concept illustrated here is an information asymmetry.</em>
Hi!
<em>Option C is correct.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation of the choices:
A. - This seems a good choice, however it's not the best choice. Let's come back to it.
B. - This is the best choice because they get to experience first-hand how to manage and make their own money decisions. Choice A might seem good at first, but we can see this is better because they get to make their own decisions and experience hands-on how to do it.
C - This is not a good choice, because it's best to expose children early so they can grow up knowing how to do it.
D - This choice doesn't make sense. What is the point of money if you store it away and don't spend it? This will likely not be a good lesson in the future.
Hope this helps! :D
TY OMG THIS MEANS SO MUCH
Answer:
The person with Absolute advantage is the one that produces more of a good than the other.
<em><u>Dina </u></em><em>has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and </em><em><u>Charles</u></em><em> has an absolute advantage in the production of barley. </em>
The person with Comparative Advantage is the person who produces something at a lower opportunity cost.
Charles Opportunity Costs
Producing Alfalfa gives 12 bushels per acre instead of 6 bushels for Barley.
Producing 1 Alfalfa means 6/12 = 0.5 bushels Barley is given up
Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 12/6 = 2 bushels Alfalfa is given up.
Dina Opportunity Costs
Producing Alfalfa gives 15 bushels per acre instead of 5 bushels for Barley.
Producing 1 Alfalfa means 5/15 = 0.33 bushels of Barley is given up
Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 15/5 = 3 bushels of Alfalfa is given up.
<em>Charles's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is </em><em><u>2</u></em><em> bushels of alfalfa, whereas Dina's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is </em><em><u>3</u></em><em> bushels of alfalfa. Because Charles has </em><em><u>lower</u></em><em> a opportunity cost of producing barley than Dina, </em><em><u>Charlie</u></em><em> has a comparative advantage in the production of barley, and </em><em><u>Dina</u></em><em> has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa.</em>
