Answer:
B) People face trade-offs
Explanation:
A trade-off happens when you have to balance two (or three in this case) opposing situations. In economics all resources are scarce, and time is the only resource that everyone shares equally. Bob is facing opportunity costs, i.e. if he chooses to train one activity he cannot train the other.
Bob has to decide how to divide the time he can spend training. If he chooses running, he can´t swim or ride a bike. So he has to balance the time spent on each activity, probably depending on which sport he needs to train the most.

Answer:
Proposal A: $185,714.29
Proposal B: $160,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
$10,000 for installations to be completed.
The revenue generated by each unit is $ 20.00
Proposal A:
Fixed costs= 55,000
The variable cost is $13.00
Proposal B:
Fixed costs= 70,000
The variable cost is $10.00
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Proposal A: (55,000+10,000)/[(20-13)/20]= $185,714.29
Proposal B: (70,000 + 10,000)/[(20-10)/20]= $160,000
