Somerset Computer Company has been purchasing carrying cases for its portable computers at a purchase price of $24 per unit. The

company, which is currently operating below full capacity, charges factory overhead to production at the rate of 40% of direct labor cost. The unit costs to produce comparable carrying cases are expected to be as follows: Direct materials $8.00 Direct labor 12.00 Factory overhead (40% of direct labor) 4.80
Total cost per unit $24.80
If Somerset Computer Company manufactures the carrying cases, fixed factory overhead costs will not increase and variable factory overhead costs associated with the cases are expected to be 25% of the direct labor costs.
Prepare a differential analysis dated April 30 to determine whether the company should make (Alternative 1) or buy (Alternative 2) the carrying case. If an amount is zero, enter "0". If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

Which one of the following is NOT one of the arguments against social responsibility as used by economist Milton Friedman?
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

B) Businesses can actually do very little in terms of social responsibility.

Explanation:

Milton Friedman is most famous for the defense of the Chicago School economics which is a neoclassical approach to macroeconomics. He favored free trade, smaller government and a slow but constant growth of the money supply. I personally disagree with neoclassical economists because they have the tendency to mess things up and time proves they are always wrong (that is a biased but positive statement). He was the father of monetarism, but if you look at his last two disciples, George Bush and George W. Bush, the outcome was not positive ⇒ 3 deep recessions in 3 presidential terms.

As a neoclassical economist, Friedman believed and argued in favor of the trickle down in economics. That means that if you allow the rich to get overwhelmingly rich, their riches will spill over to the rest of society. Not because they are good people that like to share their wealth, but because they need workers and employees to keep consuming goods and services in order to get the economy moving. Eventually the spilled over wealth should return to the top. So it is no wonder why he opposed corporate social responsibility, since wasting time and money in the community, employees or the environment was simply a waste of resources that could be used to increase stockholders' wealth.

I understand how theoretically this might work, but it takes the human factor out of the equation and expectations are extremely important in economics, that is why they always fail.

you can use multiplication or division to "scale" ratios.

Multiplying or dividing all terms in a ratio by the same number creates a ratio with the same proportions as the original, so, to scale your ratio, multiply or divide through the ratio by the scaling factor

In the open-economy macroeconomic model, if a country’s supply of loanable funds shifts right, then
Contact [7]

Answer:

According to the situation given in the question, if a country's supply of loan able funds shift rights , then A) the net capital outflow will increase and so the exchange rate will fall.

Explanation:

According to the situation given in the question , the supply of funds available for loan, depends upon the national savings, so if there is high amounts of national savings available it means the funds are available for the borrowers, who are in need of funds for their investment projects. And the demand for funds available for loan comes from the domestic investment and net capital outflow.

If the supply of funds are high in the economy then obviously the interest rate will also come down and the net capital outflow will be more.
