Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Option c) how a consumer might trade off different levels of consumption of each of two goods, while staying at the same utility level.

Explanation:

This is the very definition of an indifference curve. The points in an indifference curve are the combinations of the quantities (level of consumption) of two different goods which will produce the very same utility to the consumer. The consumer will perceive any of those combinations as having the same utility for him.

For example, a usual graph of various indifference curves will look like the graph attached.

In this graph the combination of 2 pairs of shoes and 15 pants will be perceived as having the same utility as the combination of 5 pairs of shoes and 4 pants. Both are combinations in the same indifference curve, the green one, and the utility of any combination lying in that green curve will be rated the same: u = 1.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Total overhead cash disbursement= $155,160

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The direct labor budget indicates that 7,500 direct labor-hours will be required in February. The variable overhead rate is $8.40 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $110,250 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,090.

First, we need to calculate the allocated variable overhead:

Variable overhead= 7,500*8.4= 63,000

Depreciation is not a cash disbursement:

Fixed overhead= 110,250 - 18,090= 92,160

Total overhead cash disbursement= 63,000 + 92,160= $155,160
