Answer:
The theory of comparative advantage says that nations should yield and trade only those merchandises in which they have a reasonable advantage i.e. which they are specialize in.
To compute the comparative advantage of two nations A and B, let us first compute the opportunity cost of making movies and vehicles in each.
Country A:
Opportunity cost of making 1 automobile = 2 movies
Opportunity cost of making 1 movie = 1/2 automobile
Country B:
Opportunity cost of making 1 automobile = 8/5 movies
Opportunity cost of making 1 movie= 5/8 automobile
Since the prospect cost of making an automobile is lesser in Country B and the prospect cost of making movies is lesser in country A, thus Country A would make movies and country B would make automobiles.
Answer:
The effect of increasing the money supply on inflation
Explanation:
Economics can be classified into two (2) categories, namely;
1. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
2. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets.
Hence, it is focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.
In conclusion, microeconomics focuses on all of the aforementioned statements except the effect of increasing the money supply on inflation because it is a macroeconomic factor.
Sally is most likely in the formal operational stage of development. This answer based on Piaget's 4 stages of cognitive development which describes the stages of human's mental development. Piaget's 4 stages of cognitive development consist of the sensory motor, the preoperational, the formal operational, and the concrete operational stage<span>. Sally is in the second stage of this theory. This is because she already has developed her logical thinking.</span>
Answer:
2 and 4
Explanation:
Japanese worker can produce 6 units of steel or 3 televisions per hour.
Korean worker can produce 8 units of steel or 2 televisions per hour.
Opportunity cost is the cost of the lost alternative. So when the country decides to produce only televisions it has to give up on steel production. Thus, the units of steel forgone for each unit of television gained is an opportunity cost of a television.
Thus,
Opportunity cost of television for Japan = 
Opportunity cost of television for Korea = 
Answer:
$7.24
Explanation:
PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / (1 + 0.055)
PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / 1.055
PV at the risk free rate = $1,800.95
Number of options needed = (2,400 - 1,900) / (400 - 0)
Number of options needed = 500 / 400
Number of options needed = 1.25
Total assets = (No of options needed*Value of equity) + Present value at the risk free rate. Let Value of equity be C0
$1,810 = (1.25*C0) + $1,800.95
$1,810 - $1,800.95 = 1.25*C0
C0 = $9.05 / 1.25
C0 = $7.24
So, the Value of equity in this firm is $7.24.
