Answer: 3
Explanation:
The marginal rate of substitution simply means the rate at which one good will be exchanged for another good based on the current market price.
Since you like servants three times as much as robots, this implies that the utility that one gets from one servant is exactly like the utility that will be gotten from three robots.
Therefore, the utility function will be:
U = 3X + Y
Then, the marginal rate of substitution will be:
= MUX/MUY
= 3
Answer:
$185,400
Explanation:
Price of next best alternative = $150,000
Expected crash system saving:
= (Probability of crash × cost of a system crash) - (Probability of machine will crash × cost of a system crash)
= [(15% × 500,000) - (5% × 500,000)]
= $75,000 - $25,000
= $50,000
Added operating cost true economic value:
= (Number of hours in 365 days × machine cost per hour) - (Number of hours in 365 days × Next best alternative cost per hour)
= [(2,920 × $20/hr) - (2,920 × $15/hr)]
= $58,400 - $43,800
= $14,600
True economic value (TEV) of the machine:
= Price of next best alternative + Expected crash system saving - Added operating cost true economic value
= $150,000 + $50,000 - $14,600
= $185,400
Answer:
The maximum amount that Michel can borrow is 70,000 dollars.
Explanation:
Please see attachment .
$1,130.28
Formula is A = P (1 + [r/n])^(nt)
A= 879 (1+ [.018/4])^(4*14)
A= 879 (1.0045)^56
A= $1,130.28
A = future total amount
P = principle (amount initially deposited)
r = the annual interest rate (decimal)
n = times that interest is compounded per year (quarterly is 4 times per year)
t = number of years
Answer:
$5.74
Explanation:
Q* = 2DS / H[1-(d/p)]
Q² = 2DS / H[1-(d/p)]
S = (Q²)(H)[1 - (d/p) / 2D
Setup cost S = (200^2)*(10)*(1 - (100/800)) / 2*30,500
Setup cost S = 40000*10*0.875 / 61000
Setup cost S = 350000 / 61000
Setup cost S = 5.737704918032787
Setup cost S = $5.74
