Answer:

the correct answer is "opportunity cost".

the opportunity cost here means the cost of the next best opportunity lost because of spending time at work, this could be 8 hours, 10 hours at work, etc.

the underline point here is that when someone works for, lets say, 8 hours, he or she could have done something else that they enjoy and brings value to them and their family.

but since they are working, they can not engage in that activity. because of this, we call it the opportunity cost! simple right?

suter [353]

Answer:

Scarcity and Utility

I will explain the concepts of scarcity, value, and utility using my laptop and some writing pens.  I have only one laptop available in my family.  I use it 24-hours daily.  I attach so much value (utility) to the laptop because it is only one.  It is very scare in my household.  On the other hand, I have a packet of writing pens.  Pens are relatively not scare in my household.  If my laptop is missing, I will raise uproar in the house.  Everybody present will answer a tedious query.  But, if one of the pens gets missing, I may not even be aware that it is missing.  At the moment, I do not attach much value (utility) to the writing pens because I have many of them presently .  Writing pens are not scare in my household, as I said earlier.

Using these examples, I have demonstrated the concepts of scarcity, utility, and value.

Explanation:

Therefore, scarcity is defined by the value and the relative availability of a good.  Scarcity is a basic economic problem that shows the gap existing between limited resources and unlimited needs.  Based on the lack experienced with satisfying a need, one has to always choose between alternatives in order to maximize resource allocation and utility.

Utility in Economics refers to the value or satisfaction derivable from the meeting of a human or economic need.  It is initially connected to the concept of scarcity.  But after attaining some level of utility, scarcity temporarily evaporates.  And this is the dividing thin line.  This is why they are mostly used together.  "Something that is valuable is scarce and give utility."  Something that is not highly valuable is not usual scarce and does not give much utility, at least, to an extent.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Ms. Langley is 30 years old and has begun a retirement plan that permits her to place monthly amounts of $400 into a retirement vehicle, beginning one month from now, for 30 consecutive years.

When Ms. Langley reaches her retirement at age 60, she expects to live for 25 more years. The interest rate is 6%.

First, we need to calculate the amount of money that she will have at age 60, using the following formula.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit= 400

n= 30*12= 360

i= 0.06/12= 0.005

FV= {400[(1.005^360)-1]}/0.005= $401,806.02

Months= 25years*12= 300 months

Monthly= 401,806.02/300= $1,339.35

Suppose Tim spends his entire income on hot dogs and hamburgers and consumes at least some of both. Now suppose that the price o
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

D. Tim consumes more hamburgers and fewer hot dogs.

Explanation:

For his utility to remain constant, Tim will neither consume more goods in total, nor spend more money than before.

Therefore, because the price of hot dogs has risen, while the price of hamburger has remained the same, he will now buy more hamburgers and less hot dogs, because eating more hamburgers and less hot dogs will not decrease his satisfaction, it will remain the same. We can also conclude from that both fast food products are perfect substitutes for Tim.
