Answer:

d. people face trade-offs.

Explanation:

At one extreme of the curve, the highest possible amount of one good is produced while zero quantity of the second good is produced . To produce more quantity of the second good, one has to produce less quantity of the first good. This illustrates trade off.

Answer:

By answering more phone calls but providing worse service, you ARE being EFFICIENT but NOT <u>SATISFY CUSTOMERS' NEEDS</u>.

Explanation:

A worker's efficiency is measured by the total output per hour of labor. In this case, since you are answering more calls per hour, your efficiency is increasing (higher output per hour).

The quality of the service provided by a worker's is measured by the quality of their output (or performance), and if you satisfy your customers' needs. Since the service that you are providing is not that good, then your quality levels are decreasing.

You may be producing more services, but the services produced lack good quality.

Your father is now planning to retire, and his employer has promised him a guaranteed, but fixed, income of $50,000 per year for
ohaa [14]

Answer:

(C) 18,844.47

Explanation:

You need to use the  Inflation-Adjusted Return formula:

InflationAdjustedReturn=\frac{1+return}{1+inflationrate}-1

So, basically you need to calculate it year by year. You can use excel, or an online calculator. I will attached you a link where you can find a good one. But this would be the process

InflationAdjusted ReturnYear1=\frac{1+return}{1+inflationrate}-1=\frac{1+50000}{1+0.05}-1=47,619

InflationAdjusted ReturnYear2=\frac{1+returnyear1}{1+inflationrate}-1=\frac{1+47,619}{1+0.05}-1=45,351

InflationAdjusted ReturnYear3=\frac{1+returnyear2}{1+inflationrate}-1=\frac{1+45,351}{1+0.05}-1=43,192

And so on...

InflationAdjusted ReturnYear20=\frac{1+returnyear19}{1+inflationrate}-1=\frac{1+19,787}{1+0.05}-1=18,844

Keep in mind that I did not write all decimals. You need to consider them if you want an exact answer
