Answer:

37 years

Explanation:

We know,

Future value = Present value (1 + r)^n

Given,

Future value, FV = $230,000;

Present value, PV = $32,000;

Interest rate, r = 5.5% = 0.055;

We have to determine how many years later I can purchase the Ferrari.

Now, putting the values into the formula, we get,

FV = PV × (1 + r)^n

or, $230,000 = $32,000 × (1 + 0.055)^n

or, $230,000 ÷ $32,000 = (1 + 0.055)^n

or, 7.1875 = (1 + 0.055)^n

or, log 7.1875 = n × log 1.055

or, n × log 1.055 = log 7.1875 [Changing the side]

or, n = log 7.1875 ÷ log 1.055

Using financial calculator/Scientific Calculator,

or, n = 0.8566 ÷ 0.0233

Therefore, n = 36.76 or almost 37 years.

A country produces only bananas and robots. If it produced only bananas with all its available resources, it could make 60 milli
Levart [38]

It should be noted that in the PPC, the downward sloping line 'ab' is the production possibility curve.

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

In the diagram, since point 'A' falls on the PPC itself, it represents the full employment of resources. Point 'A' represents the combination of 30 million bananas and 10 million robots.

Opportunity cost producing a robot = Total bananas possible / Total robots possible

Opportunity cost producing a robot =60/20

Opportunity cost producing a robot = 3 bananas

The area outside PPC represents the unattainable combinations of two goods.

During the recession, the resources are inefficiently used and the production combination is represented by point 'B' which falls below PPC When the production technology improves only for one good and not for the other, the PPC rotates

Marginal opportunity cost of a robot = 80 million bananas / 10 million robots

The marginal opportunity cost of a robot = 8 bananas

Opportunity cost of 2 million robots = 8 bananas × 2 million

The opportunity cost of 2 million robots will be 16 million bananas.

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.
