Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: Cash in advance

Explanation: Cash in advance is a type of payment that is used in some trade agreements.

This method of payment will require a buyer to pay the seller in cash before a shipment is received and sometimes before a shipment is even made.

Cash in advance is a strategic form of payment that can be used in any transaction in where there is a delay between the sales agreement and the sales delivery.

In the scenario given in the question, we can see that the German company has already placed an order, but the company has also caused a delay in the transaction by requesting for extra modifications.

This will prompt EastSide Tractors to feel the need to safeguard their interests in case the German company should default. This is why a Cash in advance payment system will come into play.

Anthony currently earns $25 an hour and works 40 hours a week. When his boss offers to pay him $29 per hour, Anthony decides to
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

substitution and income effects will counteract each other totally

Explanation:

A labor supply curve is an economic analysis tool that shows the number or workers that are available to work or that can work at various wage rates.

The labor supply curve can either be bending backwards or sloping downwards or upward curving but it shows the relationship between labour and wage rates.

A labor supply curve can be affected by factors such as population, changes in social behaviour, opportunities in other markets, among other things.

From the above question, it is seen that a change in wage rate for Anthony from $25 to $29 does not affect his work hours positively of negatively. His work hours is the same despite the increase in hourly wage.

The effect of the Anthony sticking to 40 hours of work despite an increase in wage, which could have served as some motivation for him to put in more hours is his labor curve remains same. An increase in wage has done noting to affect the number of hours he works and as such his income vs work rate counters each other.

Cheers.
