Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.

If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.

The opportunity cost of attending college for Brooke is the amount that she could earn as an actress i.e. $2 million per year.

The opportunity cost of attending college for Sandy is the amount that he could earn by serving hamburgers i.e. $10,000 a year.

Therefore, opportunity cost of attending college is greater for Brooke than for Sandy.

Taylor Company has current sales of 1,000 units, which generates sales revenue of $190,000, variable costs of $76,000 and fixed
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The change in net operating income after the changes by $14,200

Explanation:

For computing the change in net operating income, first, we have to compute the contribution per unit which is shown below:

Contribution per unit = Selling per unit - variable cost per unit

                                   = $190 per unit - $76 per unit

                                   =  $114 per unit

where,

The selling per unit = (Sales revenue ÷ number of units)

                                = ($190,000 ÷ 1,000 units)

                                = $190 per unit

The variable cost per unit = (variable cost ÷ number of units)

                                           = ($76,000 ÷ 1,000 units)

                                           = $76 per unit

Now the change in operating income equals to

= (increased sales units × contribution per unit) - advertising cost

= (300 units × $114 per unit) - $20,000

= $34,200 -$20,000

= $14,200 increase

Tems11 [23]

C.)intuitive listening takes place when the listener tries to discern the deeper meaning of a speaker’s words.

A.)Active

B.)efficient

Explanation:

Intuitive listening means that the person who is listening is trying to understand as well as imbibe what the other is saying to a deeper level.

This involves actively thinking about what the other person is saying and then critically discerning what it really means above the meaning of its own words.

Then the person who is listening reaches to the 'deeper' meaning or the essence of what the other person is trying to say.

This is the process that is involved in intuitive listening.

Investing in stocks and bonds is risky because it is possible to lose all or part of your principal.
Aneli [31]

It's true investing in stocks and bonds is risky because it is possible to lose all or part of your principal.

Investors are unlikely to demand the same returns on their stock investments year after year. Market yields can be expressed as the sum of government bond yields and market risk premiums.

Yes. If you sell bonds before their maturity date, you may incur a loss as the sale price may be lower than the purchase price. Also, if an investor purchases a bond and the company faces financial difficulties, the company may not be able to return all or part of the original investment to the bondholders.
