Suppose that a firm’s marginal production costs are given by MC = 10 + 4Q. The firm’s production process generates a toxic waste

, which imposes an increasingly large cost on the residents of the town where it operates: the marginal external cost (i.e. marginal damage inflicted on the residents) associated with the Qth unit of production is given by 2Q. Hint: The social marginal cost takes into account the private cost of the firm as well the marginal damage to the society of the firm’s production activities.
(a) What is the marginal private cost associated with the 10th unit produced?
(b) What is the total marginal cost to society associated with producing the 10th unit (the marginal social cost of the 10th unit)?

Answer:

A) Marginal private cost= 50

B) Total Marginal social cost to society = 70

Explanation:

A) In order to find the marginal private cost we will use the firms production cost formula as it is the private cost that the firm is enduring and is only relevant to the firm's cost and not the society's cost.

In order to find the marginal unit cost of the 10th unit produced will will replace Q in the formula by 10 as it represents quantity.

MC= 10 + 4Q

MC= 10 + 4(10)

MC= 10 +40 = 50

B) In order to find the marginal cost to society we will add the marginal external cost of the 10th unit to its private cost. We already know the marginal private cost is 50 now we need to find the marginal external cost to it to find the total marginal cost.

Marginal external cost = 2Q

Q= 10

Marginal external cost = 2*10 =20

The total Marginal cost to society= 50 + 20= 70

If the money supply is $6,000, velocity is 5, and Real GDP is 10,000 units of output, then the price level is _____________. If
atroni [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The Price level in the normal case

= Money supply ÷ Real GDP × Velocity

= $6,000 ÷ 10,000 units × $5

= $3

Now in the case when the money supply doubled i.e $12,000

So, the price level is

= Money supply ÷ Real GDP × Velocity

= $12,000 ÷ 10,000 units × $5

= $6

When the money supply doubles, the price level is also doubled that indicated the direct relationship between the price level and money supply

Clear Colors Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor costs to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs.
belka [17]

Answer:

b. $ 2,000 overapplied

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to determine the predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor costs.

Estimated total manufacturing Overhead                        $ 350,000

Estimated direct labour costs                                            $ 200,000

Predetermined overhead rate $ 350,000 / $ 200,000   $ 1.75 per $ of direct labour costs.

The total manufacturing overhead <u>applied</u> on direct labor costs of $ 208,000, is:

$ 208,000 * $ 1.75                                                              <u> </u>$ 364,000

Actual overhead costs incurred                                          <u>$ 362,000</u>

Manufacturing overhead over applied                              <u> $      2,000</u>

MariettaO [177]

The statements about trade that is false is that with trade, one country wins and country loses. The appropriate response is option B.

<h3>What is trade?</h3>

The act of trading involves parties exchanging products and services for mutually beneficial ends. Trade helps people and nations to live better lives and improve their economic conditions.

Trade is crucial for maintaining a competitive global economy because it promotes innovation and supports the specialization of markets while also driving down international pricing for goods.

The capacity to trade also gives one access to products and services that may be more affordable and of greater quality than those found domestically. Alternative commerce gives the world's poorest countries a way out of poverty.
