Answer:
1. <em>If this law of contributory negligence applies to the state, then Ramona will receive no compensation for the damages she sustained. </em>
<em>
</em>2<em>. If this law of comparative negligence applies to this state, then Ramona will get 100% - 20% = 80% of the damages incurred in the accident, from John which will be $80,000</em>
<em />
Explanation:
In contributory negligence, the defense completely bars plaintiffs from any recovery if they contribute to their own injury through their own negligence.
<em>If this law of contributory negligence applies to the state, then Ramona will receive no compensation for the damages she sustained. </em>
<em>
</em>
In comparative negligence, the plaintiff's damages is award by the percentage of fault that the fact-finder assigns to the plaintiff for his or her own injury i.e the plaintiff's damage compensation is reduced by percentage of his/her percentage of fault.
<em>If this law of comparative negligence applies to this state, then Ramona will get 100% - 20% = 80% of the damages incurred in the accident, from John</em>
this is 80% of $100,00 which is equal to <em>$80,000</em>
Answer:
Joe's Pizza Parlor
The highest number of workers that Joe will hire if he must pay each one $35 a day is
4 workers.
If he wants to maximize his profits without satisfying customers' demand, Joe can choose to work with 2 or 3 workers. However, he can renegotiate the worker's wages downwards.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Price of pizza = $5
Wage per worker = $35/day
Number of Workers 0 1 2 3 4 5
Pizzas Baked Per Day 0 12 18 24 30 32
Total revenue 0 60 90 120 150 160
Marginal revenue 0 60 30 30 30 10
Marginal cost of labor 0 35 70 105 140 175
Profit 0 25 20 15 10 -15
Answer:
Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$61,600
Explanation:
Differential Cost:
It is the difference in costs if there are more than one alternatives and one alternative is chosen while rejecting the other alternatives.
In order to calculate the differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A, including all of the relevant costs we first calculate the total cost of both alternatives and then tae the difference.
Total Of Alternative A=Material Cost+Processing Cost+Equipment Rental+occupancy costs.
Total Of Alternative A=$28000+$34000+$11000+$19500=$92,500
Total Of Alternative B=Material Cost+Processing Cost+Equipment Rental+occupancy costs.
Total Of Alternative B=$64000+$34000+$28500+$27600=$154,100
Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=Total Of Alternative B-Total Of Alternative A
Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$154,100-$92,500
Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$61,600
Answer: d. Decision-making lag
Explanation:
When policy makers have identified that there is a problem that needs fixing but cannot seem to agree on the way forward, this is known as a <em>Decision - Making Lag or simply the Decision Lag.</em> It is one of the 3 specific inside Policy Lags and can be devastating due to the uncertainty of time it might take.
For instance, the economists suggesting dropping the federal funds rate by 0.25% might have the backing of one half of the Fed and the other Economists, the other half. Arguments could therefore go on for weeks before a decision is made.
