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.

Your company has just taken out a 1-year installment loan for $82,500 at a nominal rate of 12.0% but with equal end-of-month pay
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

89.63% of 2nd month payment will go towards the payment of principal.

Explanation:

Loan Payament per month = r ( PV ) / 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n

r = rate per period = 12% per year = 1% per month

n = number months = 12 months

PV =  present value of all payments = $82,500

P = payment per month = ?

P = 1% ( $82,500 ) / 1 - ( 1 + 1% )^-12

P = $7,330 per month

Month Payments Principal Interest Balance

1                 -7330              -6505     -825       75995

2                -7330              -6570      -760      69,425

Percentage of Principal Payment  = Principal payment / totla monthly payment = $6,570 / $7,330 = 0.8963 = 89.63%

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The Oscar's fixed costs per month is $2,500

Explanation:

Fixed cost: The fixed cost is that cost in which the amount is remain fixed whether production level change or not, that means it does not have any effect on the production level.

In the given question,

Monthly rent is $2,500 which is fixed so, it would be considered as fixed cost

The per hour pay and electrical bill depend upon the total hours of operation which means if the more hours, the workers are engaged so more pay will be give to them, and more electricity bill come.

And if they are working few hours, than less rate and less electrical bill will be there which reflects the variable cost. So, these cost are considered variable cost. Thu, it would not be included in the fixed cost.

Hence, Oscar's fixed costs per month is $2,500
