This is false because consumer surplus declines because of the increase in price and reduction in quantity.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A.
Explanation:
A market outcome will be considered economically efficient if the marginal benefit earned from the last unit is equal to the marginal cost incurred in the production of the last unit while the economic surplus or the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus is at maximum.
If the marginal cost and benefit are not equal then the outcome is said to inefficient. It means that either the resources are not being allocated efficiently or the production is not efficient.
Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
A decrease in the supply will cause the supply curve to shift to the left. This leftward shift in the supply curve will further cause the demand and supply curve to intersect at a higher point.
As a result, there will be an increase in the equilibrium price and a decrease in the equilibrium quantity.
This also represented in the figure given below.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the missing amount is as follows:
As we know that
The total manufacturing cost = Direct Materials Used + Direct Labor Used + Factory Overhead
So,
(1)
= $42,700 + $64,200 + $52500
= $159,400
(2)
= $298,000 - $78,100 - $144,000
= $75,900
(3)
= $314,000 - $57,400 - $113,000
= $143,600
