Answer:

Equilibrium quantity increases; Equilibrium price is indeterminate.

Explanation:

If a new article reports that there are many benefits of exercise, this will increase the demand for exercise bikes and shifts the demand curve rightwards.

At the same time, there is a fall in the price of parts of exercise bikes which reduces the cost of production of exercise bikes. Now, the producer will be able to produce more exercise bikes, so the supply of exercise bikes increases and shifts the supply curve rightwards.

Therefore, there is an increase in the equilibrium quantity of exercise bikes and the impact on equilibrium price is indeterminate because that will be dependent upon the magnitude of the shift of demand and supply curve.

Alicia heard that as a general rule, she should spend no more than one week's pay on rent. If Alicia's pay is $35,256 per year,
Nastasia [14]
If Alicia pay per year is $35,256 and there are twelve months in a year, then her monthly salary is $35,256/12 = 2,938.
This means that Alicia earns $2, 938 each month. 
Conventionally, there are four weeks in a month, thus, Alicia earns $2,938/4 = 734.50. This means that, Alicia earns $734. 50 each week and this is the amount that Alicia is expected to spend on rent on a monthly basis.

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

$17,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Actual factory overhead for the year = $1,375,000

Estimated overhead = $1,250,000

Estimated machine hour = 50,000

Total machine hours for the year = 54,300

Predetermined rate per hour:

= Estimated overhead ÷ Estimated machine hour

= $1,250,000 ÷ 50,000

= $25 per hour

Applied overhead:

= Predetermined rate per hour × Total machine hours

= $25 × 54,300

= $1,357,500

Therefore, the under-applied amount for the year:

= Actual factory overhead - Applied overhead

= $1,375,000 - $1,357,500

= $17,500
