Warehouse W’s revenue from the sale of sofas was what percent greater this year than it was last year? (1) Warehouse W sold 10 p
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

1) 10%

2) Depends on the selling price

Please see the attachment  

Explanation:

We have 2 scenarios. In both cases we have to calculate the income as the product of the selling price by the units sold, and then we must calculate the increasing percentage to compare the actual value with the last year value.

Let's see the attachment and consider that:

P is the selling price of the sofas

x is the units sold  

So, the income is the result of the selling price, by the units sold, respectively for each year. Then, the increase is the ratio between the actual year income minus last year income, over last year income. Finally, the increase percentage is the result of multiplying the increase value, by 100.

We can conclude that for the first scenario, the selling increase percentage is 10%, meanwhile, for the second scenario, the selling increase percentage depends on the selling price; that means, the higher the selling price, the increase percentage will be lower, but anyway, there will be increase.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The correct words for the blank spaces are (<em>in that order</em>): low; high; opportunity; reservation.

Explanation:

For buyers and sellers to benefit from a transaction, the price of the goods or services offered must be at equilibrium. It implies the price is low enough for consumers to consider purchasing the product and high enough for producers to offer it earning a profit.

Besides, producers should consider their opportunity costs which are the costs of adding one more unit for production. On the other side of the road, consumers consumer their reservation price which is the maximum amount of money they could pay for a good or service based on the value they give to the product.

What type of tax system does the United States use?<br> ​
Basile [38]

Answer: Progressive tax system

Explanation: The progressive tax system is where the income of an individual is taxable based on his or her capacity to pay. The individuals who earn less pay lesser tax as compared to higher-earning individuals.

The tax system doesn’t impose a burden on those who don’t have a sufficient amount to pay as taxes. By doing this the people who earn low income will be able to maintain a high living standard and the people who earn more are able to afford the basic necessities. So it balances the economy.

Alik [6]

Answer:

The marginal rate of technical substitution will remain constant.

Explanation:

The marginal rate of technical substitution is the rate at which an input is substituted for others. For instance, it is the rate at which the amount of labor should be decreased to increase the amount of capital.  

It represents the slope of an isoquant. When the inputs are perfectly substitutable, the isoquant is a straight line. In this situation, the marginal rate of technical substitution remains the same at all the points of the isoquants. The MRTS remains constant, though further information is needed to find out if it is high or low.
