Answer:

It should give 15 haircut

And maximum profit will be 112.5

Explanation:

It is given total cost TC=0.5Q^2

Corresponding marginal cost MC = Q

For maximizing profit P = MC

Assuming market price of haircut Q = 15

So it should give 15 haircut

So P = MC = Q = 15

Profit is equal to

Profit = PQ - TC

=15\times 15-0.5\times 15^2

=112.5

Unearned revenue, which represents the company's obligation to honor gift cards previously issued to customers, totaled $6,800 a
Dimas [21]

The correct answer is that there were $51,700 work of gift cards redeemed during the year.

In order to determine the correct answer you need to start with the total balance of the unearned revenue account, which is $6,800. To the starting balance you need to add the amount of gift cards purchased throughout the year, which is $55,000. This total is $61,800. The last step is to subtract the ending balance of the unearned revenue from the total ($61,800 - 10,100), which equals $51,700. $51,700 is the amount of gift cards redeemed during the year.

According to Ari Wallach, what is short-termism, and why is it a problem?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

<em><u>short-termism </u></em>

Is the acting upon short term vision of the needs and problems that must be addressed. It is a problem because the vision that is important is the Long path vision.

<em><u>What is “longpath” and why did Wallach develop the concept?  </u></em>

Is a concept that combines long term vision and goal oriented. Wallach develop that concept as he did not find a term that frame what is intended in the long run that was goal oriented.

<em><u>Briefly discuss each of the three ways of thinking that Wallach describes.  </u></em>

Transgenerational thinking: Thinking the impact of your actions in the future generations to come.  

Futures thinking: The future is not related only with better technology but with how will human relationships, moral, art and feelings like compassion will evolve.

Telos thinking: This is an invitation to think having in mind what is the "ultimate aim" of our actions as little of they might be. It is important to raise the question: how this action that I am doing now will impact or change the future in 20,50 or 100 years to come.

<em><u>How does Wallach relate the future to a part of speech? </u></em>

Wallach make a link between Thomas Khun quote: “People don’t shift unless they have a vision of what it is they’re shifting to.” an Martin Luther King Speech of "I Have a Dream" he says that that speech is successful as it shows what is the vision of what a dream must looks like

Suppose a technological improvement has lowered the cost of manufacturing cell phone batteries. This would lead to ___________ (
Julli [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: an increase; fall; substitutes; decrease; complements; increase.

Explanation:

Technological improvement has lowered the cost of producing cell phone batteries. This reduction in the cost of production will cause the price of cell phone batteries to decline. Since batteries are used as inputs in the cell phone. The reduction in the price of inputs means that the cost of production would decrease. The firms will be able to supply more at the same cost. The supply, as a result, will increase. The supply curve will shift to the right. The price of cell phones will decline.

Cell phones and landlines are substitutes. They can be used in place of each other. A decrease in the price of cell phones would cause the demand for landlines to decrease as the consumers will prefer a cheaper substitute.

The cell phones and applications, however, are use complements. They are used together. So when the price of cell phones decrease and its demand increase, the demand for cell phone applications will increase as well.
