Answer:

b. $42,600

Explanation:

First, we calculate the total cost of college:

21000+1800+11000=33800

Now, we calculate the net income she would receive, if she didn't go to the college:

16000-7200=8800

Finally, the opportunity cost of going to college is the result of adding the total cost of college plus the net income that she would receive if she works instead of going to college.

33800+8800=42600

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

B) GNMAs are considered to be the riskiest of the agency issues

Explanation:

The Ginnie Mae or GNMA pass through securities are mortgage backed. The Great recession taught us that mortgage backed securities are not always 100% secure, but they are still considered secure investments basically because they are guaranteed by the US government. They are similar to the securities sold by the US Treasury.

Ginnie Mae basically guarantees mortgages using federal funds (from Federal Housing Administration and Department of Veterans Affairs).

b. Anita’s opportunity cost of making one floral arrangement is ___0.75__

( 1.33, 0.75, .33, 3) deliveries. Anita’s opportunity cost of making one delivery is __1.33_ (1.33, 0.75, .33, 3) floral arrangements.

c. Jerome’s opportunity cost of making one floral arrangement is ___0.33__(.75,3,1.33..33) deliveries. Jerome’s opportunity cost of making one delivery is 3 (3, 1.33, .75, .33) floral arrangements.

d. (Jerome, Anita)_Jerome____ has a comparative advantage in floral arrangements. (Jerome, Anita)__Anita___ has a comparative advantage in deliveries.

e. Suppose that, initially, both Jerome and Anita spend four hours each day doing floral arrangements and two hours each day doing deliveries. Now suppose they change their tasks, so that each individual does nothing but the task in which she or he has a comparative advantage. How many more floral arrangements and deliveries could they produce each day?

____4_____ additional floral arrangements

____5____ additional deliveries

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Time it takes Anita to finish one floral arrangement = 30 minutes

Time it takes Anita to make a delivery = 40 minutes

Time it takes Jerome to finish one floral arrangement = 10 minutes

Time it takes Jerome to make a delivery = 30 minutes

b) Absolute Advantage: Jerome will finish 3 floral arrangements (30/10), whereas Anita can only finish 1 in 30 minutes.

c) Anita's opportunity cost is the time it will take her to make a delivery using the same time it takes her to finish one floral arrangement.  In 30 minutes time, she can only make (30/40) 0.75 deliveries.  Using 40 minutes of making a delivery, she can finish 1.33 (40/30) floral arrangements.

d) Anita's comparative advantage in making deliveries is based on her opportunity cost when compared with Jerome's opportunity cost of making deliveries.

                                          Floral            Delivery      Total hours

                                    Arrangement

The restaurant's total cost is a mixed cost that depends on customers served. The restaurant's management uses the high-low meth
harina [27]

Answer:

$29,390

Explanation:

For computing the total cost first we have to determine the variable cost per customer and the fixed cost which is shown below:

Variable cost Per Customer is

= (High total cost - low total cost) ÷ (high number of customer served - low cost of customer served)

= ($28,934 - $28,241) ÷ (14,100 - 11,214)

= $0.24

Now

Fixed cost is

= High cost - (high number of customer served × variable cost per customer)

= 28,934 - (14,100 × 0.24)

= $25,550

So, the total cost for 16,000 customers is

= Fixed cost + variable cost

= $25,550 + (16,000 × $0.24)

= $29,390
