Answer:
0.0075 rugs per dollar
Explanation:
(b)
Total labor cost:
= 520 hours × $15 per hour
= $7,800
Total solvent cost:
= 100 gallons × $5 per gallon
= $500
Total machine rental cost:
= 22 days × $75 per day
= $1,650
Multi-factor productivity:
= Number of rugs ÷ (Total labor cost + Total solvent cost + Total machine rental cost)
= 75 ÷ ($7,800 + $500 + $1,650)
= 75 ÷ $9,950
= 0.0075 rugs per dollar
Answer: $24
Explanation:
Given that,
Two workers serve = 16 customers per hour
Three workers serve = 22 customers per hour
Each customer spends an average of $4 in the store.
Total revenue from Two workers = 16 × $4
= $64
Total revenue from Three workers = 22 × $4
= $88
Therefore, the marginal benefit of hiring the third worker would be:
= Total revenue from Three workers - Total revenue from Two workers
= $88 - $64
= $24
Answer:
a. $700,000
b. 6/7 or 85.7%
c. No they will not.
Explanation:
a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.
Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs
= 1,000,000 - 400,000
= $600,000
Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income
= 100,000 + 600,000
= $700,000
b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.
Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.
Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = 
= 
= 6/7 or 85.7%
c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.
