Answer:

<h2>In the context of Consumer Theory or Indifference Curve involving two goods,the opportunity of any one good is computed by how much of the other good is foregone or sacrificed to purchase one more unit of that particular good.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In this instance,when Bill's diner consumes 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dog=\frac{35}{25} =\frac{7}{5}=1.4.Therefore,initially Bill diner's opportunity cost of an additional hot dog is 1.4 units of burger.
  • Now,when Bill's diner chooses to consume a combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot dogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dogs=\frac{25}{65} =\frac{5}{13} =0.385 approximately.Hence,Bill's diner is willing to sacrifice approximately 0.385 units of burger to consume an additional unit of hot dog.
  • Now,due to the change in consumption combination,the change in opportunity cost of additional hot dog=(1.4-0.385)=1.015 units of burger.Notice,that here the opportunity cost of additional hot dog decreased from 1.4 units of burger to 0.385 units of burger as Bill's diner changed the consumption combination of both burgers and hot dogs.

The computation of the adjusted gross income for the present year is as follows:

= Ordinary income + short term capital gain - short term capital loss + long term capital gain

= $35,000 + $3,000 - $6,000 + $4,000

= $36,000

Hence, the adjusted gross income for the present year is $36,000

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.
