Answer: in the given hypothetical statement above in order for the market to coordinate the demand and supply for dvds, the price of dvds will have to increase. When the price of dvds increase the supply will increase too, because the suppliers will now have a greater profit margin than before. On the other hand, the demand will decrease because of the higher prices and in this way the demand and supply curves will reach an equilibrium.
Answer: (a ) 4 per hour (b ) 4.5 minutes (c ) 3 minutes
Explanation:
Average time between customer arrival = 15 minutes
Average service time = 10 minutes
(a) To calculate the customer arrival rate
Arrival rate = 1 / time between Arrival
= 1 / 15
= 0.066 × 60
= 4 per hour
(b) To calculate the average number of customers in queue
( Arrival time )^2 / service time ( service time - Arrival time)
= (15)^2 / 10 ( 10 - 15)
= 225 / 10 (-5)
= 225 / 50
= 4.5 minutes
(c) To calculate the average time customers spend in the system
Arrival time / service time - Arrival time
= 15 / 10 - 15
= 15/ -5
= 3 minutes
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the sales transaction is given below:
On April 10

Answer:
Explanation:
Net sales - $894,250
Cost of Goods - $ 616850
Average account receivable - $40,650
Account receivable at year end - $28200
Average inventory - $182000
Inventory at year end - $158,000
Inventory turn over
Cost of Goods sold / Average inventory for the period
616850/182000= 3.40 times
No of days sales in inventory = Ending inventory / Cost of Goods sold *365
158000/616850*365 = 93.5 days
Account receivable turnover = net credit sale / average receivable
894250/40650=21.9
No of days sales in account receivable -
Receivable at year end/total credit sales*365
28200/894250*365= 11.5 days
Answer: it can produce that good using fewer resources than its trading partner
Explanation:
A country has an absolute advantage in the production of a good when such country can produce the good using fewer resources than another country.
Absolute advantage can be due to the natural endowment of a country. For example, let's say Japan uses 2 hours in producing a good while Brazil uses 5 hours in producing such good. Then, it can be deduced that Japan has an absolute advantage over Brazil.
