Answer:

Reserve price = $55

Expected revenue with a reserve price = $55

Expected revenue without a reserve price = $55

Explanation:

The auctioneer should set the reserve price siguiente:

Reserve price = ($30x0.5) + ($80x0.5) = $15 + $40 = $55

In the case of the expected revenue with the reserve price, only the bidder who has set a $80 value will pay the reservation fee, then the expected revenue will be the reserve fee of $55.

In the case of the expected revenue without the reserve price, both of the bidders will enter the auction for the item. Since the values are equally probable the expected profit without the reservation fee is equally $55.  

Hope this helps!

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$21,250

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the ending balance in the inventory account

Using this formula

Cost of goods sold =​ Opening Inventory + Purchase during the year - Ending balance of inventory

Let plug in the formula

Ending balance of inventory = $21,250

Therefore the ending balance in the inventory account is $21,250

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The answer to this question is  (c) Labour, Labour intensive

In the 2-factor, 2-good Heckscher-Ohlin model, the country with a relative abundance of labour will have a production possibility frontier that is biased toward production of the labour intensive good

Explanation:

The Heckscher-Ohlin model is an economic theory that proposes that countries export what they can most efficiently and plentifully produce.  

The model emphasizes the export of goods requiring factors of production that a country has in abundance. It also emphasizes the import of goods that a nation cannot produce as efficiently. It takes the position that countries should ideally export materials and resources of which they have an excess, while proportionately importing those resources they need.

Therefore in regard to the question above,

In the 2-factor, 2-good Heckscher-Ohlin model, the country with a relative abundance of labour will have a production possibility frontier that is biased toward production of the labour intensive good  

Hence the answer is the third option, Labour, Labour intensive

Labor Efficiency  Variance  $23520 favorable

Explanation:

Direct Labor rate Variance = Actual Hours * Actual Rate- Actual Hour * Standard Rate

Direct Labor rate Variance = 24840*15- 24840*14

                                                = 372600- 347760    

                                            = $ 24840 Unfavorable

Labor Efficiency  Variance =  Actual Hours * Standard Rate- Standard Hour * Standard Rate

Labor Efficiency  Variance =  24840*14- 4*6630*14

                                           =  24840*14- 26520*14

                                         = 347760 - 371280= $23520 favorable
