1. Which of the following is NOT a general characteristic of a service? A. Production and consumption are simultaneous. B. The s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

B. The service can be transported

Explanation:

Service relates to providing an intangible form of work which is performed for others to yield a benefit or satisfy a want. An important aspect of a service being, it is intangible or something which cannot be touched or felt.

For example, service provided by a doctor or services provided by a waiter at a hotel. Services are consumed, the moment they are produced. For instance, services of a waiter arise when a customer enters the hotel and a want for the service is created.

Services cannot be resold as for instance the receiver performs the same service to another, the provider would change.

As services are intangible, they cannot be stored since they arise only when a want arises and are consumed immediately.

Thus, the correct option is B. The service can be transported.

Suppose that Spain and Denmark both produce jeans and olives. Spain's opportunity cost of producing a crate of olives is 3 pairs
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

b. 6 pairs of jeans per crate of olives; and

c. 4 pairs of jeans per crate of olives

Explanation:

                 Olives       Jeans      Trade off Ratio (Olives:Jeans)

Spain            1               3            1:3 or 0.33:1       (1/3 = 0.33)

Denmark      1              11            1:11 or 0.09:1     (1/11= 0.09)

Spain & Denmark have less opportunity cost & hence comparative advantage than each other,  in Olive & Jeans respectively.

Spain will export Olives to Denmark (importer). Denmark will export Jeans to Spain (Importer). Trade will be gainful if they get exchange ratio better than domestic exchange ratio.

  • '2 jeans pairs per olive crate' not gainful trade ratio for Spain, as it is getting more i.e 3 jeans pair per olive crate at its own domestic ratio.
  • '13 jeans per olive' not gainful for Denmark, as 0.07 = (1/13) olive per jeans is worse than its own domestic ratio i.e 0.09 = (1/11) olive per jeans  

'4 jeans pairs per olive crate'  is gaining trade ratio for:

  • Spain: As it gets 4 i.e more than 3 pairs of jeans per olive crate
  • Denmark : As it gets 0.25 = (1/4) i.e more than 0.09 olive crates per pair of jeans

'6 jeans pairs per olive crate' is gaining trade ratio for:

  • Spain: As it gets 6 i.e more than 3 pairs of jeans per olive crate
  • Denmark : As it gets 0.16 = (1/6) i.e more than 0.09 olive crates per pair of jeans

Both of them are gainful trade ratios, but:

  • 1olive:4 jeans is more gainful for Denmark, as it is gaining relatively more than domestic exchange rate (0.25 is more > 0.09 than 4 > 3).  
  • 1olive:6jeans is more gainful for Spain as it is gaining relatively more than domestic exchange rate (6 is more > 3 than 0.16 > 0.09)
