Answer:

a good or service at a lower opportunity cost than others.

Explanation:

A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

For example :

there are two countries , A and B

A produces 10 kg of rice and 5 kg of beans.

B produces 5 kg of rice and 10 kg of beans

the opportunity cost of A :

in producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

In producing beans = 10/5 = 2

the opportunity cost of B :

in producing rice = 10/5 = 2

In producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

A has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in the production of rice.

B has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in the production of beans.

bazaltina [42]

Answer: $3,940

Explanation:

Purchase from Diamond

The company received a discount of 2% because they paid within 10 days as per the terms of the sale.

= (4,100 - 1,100) * 98%

= $2,940

Purchase from Club

Discount period expired so the full $1,000 is paid.

Total inventory cost:

= 2,940 + 1,000

= $3,940

Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Market Price $985.01

Explanation:

We have to convert the US semiannually rate to annually.

(1 + 0.078/2)^{2} -1 = 0.079521

Now this is the annual rate spected for a similar US Bonds

So we are going to calculate the present value using this rate.

Present value of an annuity of 78 for 20 years at 7.9521%

C * \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

78 * \frac{1-(1+0.079521)^{-20} }{0.079521} = PV\\

PV = 768.55

And we need to add the present value ofthe 1,000 euros at this rate

\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} = Present Value}

\frac{1,000}{(1 + 0.079521)^{20} = Present Value }

Present Value = 216.4602211

Adding those two values together

$985.01

The reasoning behind this is that an american investor will prefer at equal price an US bonds because it compounds interest twice a year over the German Bonds.

You were able to purchase two tickets to an upcoming concert for $100 apiece when the concert was first announced three months a
dusya [7]

Answer: $450

Explanation:

Total tickets purchased = 2

The cost of one ticket three months ago = $100

Current price of one ticket = $225

Total cost of two tickets = $225 × 2

                                        = $450

The opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone by selecting some other alternative. So, here two options are available that either attend the concert or resell the ticket at $450. Therefore, the opportunity cost of attending the concert is $450.
