likoan [24]

Answer:

a. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing dates?

Mali

b. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing grain?

None

c. Which country has the competitive advantage in producing dates?

Mali

d. Which country has the comparative advantage in producing grain?

Ireland

Explanation:

Opportunity cost of producing dates:

Ireland = 10 / 5 = 2 tons of grains

Mali = 10 / 25 = 0.4 tons of grains

Opportunity cost of producing grains:

Ireland = 5 / 10 = 0.5 tons of dates

Mali = 25 / 10 = 2.5 tons of dates

An existing electrical power line needs to have its capacity increased, and this can be done in either of two ways. The first me

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

3 years

Explanation:

<u>First method</u>

The PV of the investment can be written as:

PV1 = $15,000 + $32,500/(1+0.06)^n

<u>Second method</u>

The PV of the investment can be written as:

PV2 = $23,000 + $23,000/(1+0.06)^n

After n years both projects will be economically equal. Hence their present value must be equal PV1 = PV2

$15,000 + $32,500/(1.06)^n = $23,000 + $23,000/(1.06)^n

$23,000 - $15,000 = $32,500/(1.06)^n - $23,000/(1.06)^n

$8,000 = $9,500/(1.06)^n

(1.06)^n = $9,500/$8,000

(1.06)^n = 1.1875

Taking log on both sides we get:

nlog1.06 = log 1.1875

n = log 1.1875/log 1.06

n = 0.07463361829/0.02530586526

n = 2.94926166417121

n = 3

So, the answer is 3 years

Narver Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Operating data for the Lubricating Department

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

44,780 units

Explanation:

When a company uses the weighted average method in its process costing system, the beginning inventory nor the units transferred in are included in the calculations for equivalent units. Only units transferred out and ending inventory are use to calculate equivalent units:

equivalent units = units transferred out + (ending inventory x % of completion)}

equivalent units = 37,100 units + (9,600 units x 80%) = 37,100 units + 7,680 units = 44,780 units

On January 1, Greenview Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO method. The inventory cost on January 1 was $112,000. On December

Mumz [18]

Answer:

125,200

Explanation:

Adjust inventory to base year prices:

= Cost of ending inventory ÷ cost index for the year

= $136400 ÷ 1.1

= $124,000

Current year LIFO layer:

= Adjust inventory to base year prices - Cost of beginning inventory

= $124,000 - $112,000

= $12,000

Inventory to be shown:

= Add the new LIFO layer at end of period prices to prior year LIFO inventory

= (112,000 × 1) + (12,000 × 1.1)

= 112,000 + 13,200

= 125,200

The real wages of workers will tend to be high when

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

When labor productivity is high.

Explanation:

According to neoclassical economic theory, real wages are equal to the marginal product of labor (MLP). The marginal product of labor is the extra output produced by one extra unit of labor (one extra worker).

If the MPL is high, this means that workers are very productive, and therefore, are paid a high real wage accordingly.

This is why countries with high labor productivity like the U.S. or Switzerland also have very high real wages.
