The approach that Mr. McKay is using in the setting is the
problem based learning. The PBL or the Problem based learning is defined as a
student centered pedagogy by which students are likely to learn a particular subject
based from the experience of having to solve open ended problem found in a
material that triggers it.
Answer:
A. 15 units
B. $130
Explanation:
In order to solve this, we need to use the profit maximization condition for monopoly.
MR = MC will give us the optimal quantity and price for the monopolist.
The consumer's demand for the product is:
Qd = 80 - 0.5P
Therefore, we have:
P = (80 / 0.5) - (Qd / 0.5)
P = 160 - 2Qd
Recall that, Total Revenue:
TR = P * Q
So, in this case TR = 160Q - 2Q^2
MR = d(TR) / dQ = 160 - 4Q
Now, MR = MC
160 - 4Q = 100
4Q = 160 - 100
4Q = 60
Q = 60 / 4
Q = 15 units.
Now, P =160 - 2Q
P = 160 - 2(15)
P = 160 - 30 = 130
The optimal number of units to be placed in a package will therefore be 15 units while the firm should charge $130 for this package.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
There are two reason which suggest that action will generate greater inequality.
1. some amount is stolen by government official thus fund is getting allocated to person who are already self-sufficient hence causing inequality
2. even left portion of fund is not allocated proportionally to all the area and thereby increasing the inequality.
Answer:
b. $31,000
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight-line method for the second year is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($127,000- $3,000) ÷ (4 years)
= ($124,000) ÷ (4 years)
= $31,000
Hence, the correct option is b. $31,000
The units are to be ignored as the method i.e used is straight line so the same is to be considered
