$127.27

Price index is (new year/old year)*100

If 2005 is the base/old year, then:

$700/550 = 1.27273 * 100 = $127.27

Price index is used to show inflation from year to year by the change in price for the same goods in a base year to current year. Price index for the base year compared to the base year will always be 100, so anything above that shows inflation.

How do u calculate the bill total for the week by summing the daily bill amounts
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Calculating the bill total for the week:

The Sum Function in excel is a very easy mathematical operation to sum the daily bill amounts.  In the cell for the sum, you can manually enter the sum function by typing (=sum), then you define the parameters (=sum(C50:I50).  One you press the "enter" the result is automatically displayed.  This can also be automatically done by pressing the Sum Function on the Ribbon or Alt + =.

Explanation:

In Microsoft Excel, the Sum Function is a mathematical operation or syntax that provides the formula for adding, subtracting, or getting the total numerical content of indicated cells. With the Sum Function of Excel you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide, for example A1 * A4, C20/A2, A4 - A5, and so on.

A new labor-saving technology will likely result in..... Group of answer choices Lower wage share of output and lower Gini coeff
jekas [21]

Answer:

Higher unemployment, lower wage share of output, and higher Gini coefficient in the long run.

Explanation:

Since less labor will be used, total unemployment will increase. Besides less labor being used, more capital will be used, so the share of labor in total output will decrease. Labor efficiency increases, since you need less labor to produce the same or even a larger amount of output.

New technologies tend to increase the wages of high skilled labor and management. Since the Gini coefficient measures income inequality, then higher wages for a few will increase inequality.  

This is an example of what is happening in the US, where highly trained labor is getting paid better every time while unskilled labor is getting paid the same as many years ago or their wage has even decreased with time. This shows how important a college education is, and the difference will only keep increasing.

Given the total fixed-cost curve in gray and the total variable-cost curve in color, draw the total cost curve. Three points on
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

TFC : Horizontal Line parallel to X axis

TVC : Upward sloping inverse S shape curve from origin

TC : Upward sloping increase S shape curve, with Y axis intercept = TFC

Explanation:

Total Fixed cost [TFC] is the total production expenditure, done on fixed factors of production (Eg - on machine, building etc). It is incurred even at zero level of output, stays same (constant) irrespective of output level. So, it's curve is a  constant horizontal line.

Total Variable Cost [TVC] is the total production expenditure, done on variable factors of production (Eg - on raw material). It is zero at zero level of output,  directly related to level of output thereafter. It first increases at a decreasing rate, then increases at an increasing rate. So, it's curve is inverse S upward sloping curve from origin.

Total Cost [TC] is the total cost incurred on all factors of production (fixed & variable). It is sum of TVC & TFC. As TFC is constant at all levels of output, TC changes due to change in TVC. So, TC is also directly related to output level, first increases at increasing rate & then at decreasing rate. Hence, it is also a inverse S upward sloping curve. But, it also includes constant TFC. So, the curve has intercept on Y axis = TFC (it doesn't start from origin).
