katrin [286]

Answer:

The answer is 27 hours

Explanation:

Solution

The Comparative advantage depends on production of the lower opportunity cost

The opportunity cost of a production is =maximum production of other good /maximum production of the good

Now,

The opportunity cost of hot dog bun for town A =10/4=2.5

Thus,

The opportunity cost of hot dog bun for town B=6/10=0.6

So,

The town B has a comparative advantage in hot dog buns and A in sausages

Town A will produce-only sausages and it will take the time of

time in hours =total required a quantity of the good /number of products in an hour

Now,

The time for Town A for sausages=120/10=12 hours

The time for Town B for hot dog buns=120/8=15 hours

Therefore, The total time =12+15=27 hours.

The following information applies to the questions displayed below) Serendipity Sound, Inc., manufactures and sells compact disc

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

$25.50
90,000 units
140,000 units

Explanation:

1. Current contribution margin ratio

= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price

= (25 - 19.8) / 25

= 0.208

New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)

= $5.40

New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20

To maintain 0.208

0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price

0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20

0.208Price - Price = -20.20

-0.792Price = -20.20

Price = -20.20/-0.792

Price = $25.50

2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin

Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 25 - 19.8

= $5.20

= 468,000/5.2

= 90,000 units

3. To earn $260,000;

= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin

= (468,000 + 260,000) /5.2

= 140,000 units

Emma, Inc. reacquired 166,326 of its shares at $22 per share as treasury stock. Last year, for the first time, Emma sold 37,992

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is $152,949.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Reacquired shares = 166,326

Per share price = $22

So, we can calculate the retained earning decline by using following formula:

Retained earning decline = Cost of Treasury shares - Sales price - Paid in Capital from stock

Where, Cost of treasury shares = 48,987 × $22 = $1,077,714

Now Sales Price = 48,987 × $15 = $734,805

and Paid in Capital from stock = 37,992 × ( $27 - $22) = $189,960

By putting the value in the formula, we get:

Retained earning decline = $1,077,714 - $734,805 - $189,960

= $152,949

You, being a supplier of steak dinners, opened your steak house. Assume the market-clearing price is $20 and the market clearing

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

A) Shortage, B) Fall in Price

Explanation:

A] Market is at equilibrium where - downward sloping Market Demand (inversely related to price), & upward sloping Market Supply (directly related to price) - are equal & these curves intersect each other.

Above condition gives us equilibrium price & quantity.

If market price < equilibrium price, as given case 15 < 20. Then, supply being directly related to price is lesser, demand being inversely related to price is higher. So, there is a situation of excess demand, ie <u>shortage </u>(graphically denoted by distance between demand & supply curve at actual price below equilibrium price)

B] Dealers of hybrid vehicles increase imply increase in supply of these vehicles, rightwards shift in the supply curve. This creates excess supply ie surplus of them. It implies that competition among sellers lead to <u>fall in price </u>of these hybrid vehicles.
