$45,000 per year is the economic cost of the time he contributes to the new business.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The difference between the accounting cost and the implicit cost refers to the economic cost. Implicit cost refers to the opportunity cost that the person incurs when he makes a choice. For example consider Geetha is spending something for watching a movie. The cost that she spends for the movie and the cost that can be forgone by her when she spends that for some other things will be included in the economic cost.

In the example given Jim  was earning d $70,000 per year and now he is paying himself  $25,000 per year for building a new business. Thus the economic cost will be $70,000 -$25,000 = $45,000 per year. Here the accounting cost is  $70,000  and the implicit cost is $25,000.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Trucks value=$45,000+$6,000

Trucks value=$51,000

Therefore Calaveras value the pickup trucks at $51,000

Gain or loss on exchange=$45,000-$34,000

Gain or loss on exchange=$11,000 Gain

Therefore the company will $11,000 GAIN recognize on the exchange

Consider the market for labor depicted by the demand and supply curves that follow. Use the calculator to help you answer the fo
vekshin1

Answer:

Suppose a senator considers introducing a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $12.50.

Wage           Labor Demanded            Labor Supplied

$12.50               375,000                           625,000

This will result in a surplus of labor (625,000 higher than 375,000)

Which of the following statements are true?

  • Binding minimum wages cause structural unemployment.  As with all price floors, a deadweight loss results, because the quantity supplied is much greater than the quantity demanded. In this case, the price of labor is the wage, and the deadweight loss = structural unemployment
  • In the absence of price controls, a surplus puts downward pressure on wages until they fall to the equilibrium. Since a labor surplus exists, the price of labor should start to decrease in order to match the equilibrium price.
  • If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium. The quantity supplied of labor is much greater than the quantity demanded for labor resulting in a surplus.

The production department of Priston Company has submitted the following forecast of units to be produced by quarter for the upc
Levart [38]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

1st Quarter -  2nd Quarter - 3rd Quarter - 4th Quarter

Units to be produced: 6,000 - 7,000 - 8,000 - 5,000

the beginning raw materials inventory= 3,600

Each unit requires three pounds of raw material that costs $2.50 per pound. Management desires to end each quarter with a raw materials inventory equal to 20% of the following quarter

I will assume that the requirements are the cost of direct material for each quarter.

<u />

<u>The direct material budget is calculated by the following formula:</u>

Direct material budget= direct material for production + ending inventory - beginning inventory

Q1:

Production= (6,000*3)*$2.5= $45,000

Ending inventory= [(7,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $10,500

Beginning inventory= (3,600*2.5)= (9,000)

Total= $46,500

Q2:

Production= (7,000*3)*$2.5= $52,500

Ending inventory= [(8,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $12,000

Beginning inventory= (10,500)

Total= $54,000

Q3:

Production= (8,000*3)*$2.5= $60,000

Ending inventory= [(5,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $7,500

Beginning inventory= (12,000)

Total= $55,500
