Answer:

B. amount of time the producer has to adjust inputs in response to a price change.

Explanation:

  • When talking about elasticity of supply, we are refering to the sensibility of quantity produced when price changes.
  • If <u>price increases, producers have an incentive to increase the quantity they offer</u>. This will be <u>conditioned by the productive process they face</u>.
  • If it  is relatively easy to increase output when facing an increase in prices  elasticity of supply would be relatevely high.
  • If it is relatively difficult or slow to increase output (think about real assets for example, their production takes more time than produceing candies), facing an increase in prices would not inmediately increase offered quantities. In this case elasticity of supply would be relatively low.
  • Then, the amount of time represents a crucial aspect when thinking about how supply can change when prices changes, conditioning the value of elasticity of supply.

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges $3995 to rent
notsponge [240]

For Q1, you have to set these equations equal to each other because it is asking how much of x is necessary to make the same amount of y, so:

3995 + 225.50x = 6500 + 100.25x

solve for x:, and get x=20

so 20 tons of sugar will give the companies the same cost.

For Q2: you need to plug in x=20 into either one of the original equations, and solve for y because this will give you the cost of transportation, so:

y= 3995 + 225.50(20)

y=$8,505 for the total cost

True [87]

Answer:

C)There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.

D)There is a lack of standardization.

E)There is difficulty in accumulating wealth.

Explanation:

barter in a trade can be regarded as a system of exchange that involves exchange of goods and services for another without using money as a medium of exchange. Barter is been considered as 'inefficient' as a result of the needs for 'double coincidence of wants'. For instance in a situation whereby someone is buying particular amount of another's goods, but the payment he/she has is for just one indivisible unit of another good, and the worth is higher than what he/she want to obtain, in this case there won't be barter transaction.

It should be noted that the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter are;

✓There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.

✓There is a lack of standardization.

✓There is difficulty in accumulating
