Answer:
Explanation:
Here Nicolas will gain comparative advantage only when he is selling the good he is specializing in and he would specialize in that good which would have lower opportunity cost for him. So the first step that we have to do here is to find out for which good Nicolas will have lower opportunity cost.
For Nicolas who in 8 hours can either catch 24 pound of fish or repair 15 cars,
the opportunity cost for catching 1 fish is = 15/24 = .625
the opportunity cost for repairing 1 car is = 24/15 = 1.6
So from the above observation we can say that for Nicolas catching fish has lower opportunity cost for him , so he should specialize in catching fish.
Therefore the term of trade for Nicolas would be
1 fish = .625 cars ,
if he can catch and sell 100 units worth of fish then he would have to give up 62.5 cars and then only he will gain from trade,
1 x 100 fish = .625 x 100
100 fish = 62.5 cars.
The answer is The income effect.
Income effect is described as the change in demand of a service or good brought on by change in the income of a consumer.It is observed in two cases first is when income of person increases and second is when price of goods or service decreases.
The scenario given in the question is an example of second case as the price of burger was less than normal Steve perceived his income to be able to buy more product in same price
Answer:
Given: Total shift time = 8 hours = 8 * 60 = 480 minutes
time required for production of one saw = 6 minutes
Demand for Bow saw = Demand for frame saw = Demand for dovetail saw = 1/2 * Demand of Tenon saw
a) Mixed model schedule:
Mixed model schedule
Product no. per batch
Bow Saw 1
Frame Saw 1
Dovetail Saw 1
Tenon Saw 2
Total 5
Therefore 2 Tenon Saw, and each bow, frame, and dovetail saws will be produced before the cycle is repeated.
b) 2 Tenon Saw, 1 bow, 1 frame, and 1 dovetail saws will be produced under production sequence for one unit production.
The length of cycle will be 5*6=30 minutes i.e. the cycle will repeat once in 30 minutes for 8 hours means totally it will repeat 16 times during one shift.
c) Number of saws Swenson produce in one shift = Number of Bow saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Frame saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Dovetail saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Tenon saw Swenson produce in one shift
