Answer: A. labor market

Explanation:

The labor market is indeed a market because it operates as a market does. Here the prospective employees offer their services to employers who then buy these services and pay them a wage as compensation.

It is therefore where employers are able to obtain the types of workers that they want because they can advertise their preference then narrow their choices through interviews and other recruitment methods.

Maria is a hard-working college sophomore. One Sunday, she decides to work nonstop until she has answered 100 practice problems

sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

i. The marginal, or additional, gain from Maria’s first hour of work, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, is 40 problems.

ii. The marginal gain from Maria’s third hour of work, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, is 20 problems

iii. 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading (c)

Explanation:

i. The marginal gain from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM is calculated thus:

work done at 8:00 AM = 0 problems

Work done at 9:00 AM = 40 problems

Marginal gain = (Work done at 9:00 AM) - (work done at 8:00) = 40 - 0 = 40 problems

ii. work done at 10:00 AM = 70 problems

work done at 11:00 AM = 90 problems

Marginal gain = 90 - 70 = 20 problems

iii. To get the best exam score, the most number of problems possible in total must be answered within the 4-hour period, and this is determined as follows:

we are told that Maria gets tired as time progresses and the number of questions answered reduces we notice the following numbers of questions answered in each hour:

8:00 AM to 9:00 AM = 40 - 0 = 40 problems (hour 1)

9:00 AM to 10:00 AM = 70 - 40 = 30 problems (hour 2)

10:00 AM to 11:00 AM = 90 - 70 = 20 problems (hour 3)

11:00 AM to Noon = 100 - 90 = 10 problems (hour 4)

Also, we are told that;

1 hour of reading = 25 problems

Comparing the reading and solving problems, we see that the number of problems solved in hour-1 and hour-2 (40 and 30 respectively) are more than the equivalent number of problems solved in reading for 1 hour, while hour-3 and hour-4 (20 and 10 respectively), have lesser equivalent number of problems each, than reading for one hour. Therefore to make the most out of the 4 hours, Maria will spend the first 2 hours solving problems and the next two hours reading, giving a total of: 40 + 30 + 25 + 25 = 120 problems solved.

When Paul arrived at work in the morning, he promised his co-workers that he would buy dinner for all of them that evening. He m

patriot [66]

Answer: No, Paul has not breached a contract.

Explanation: To answer this, we must first we must define what a contract is.

A contract is an agreement between two or more people that is legally binding, and which guides or governs the actions or conducts of the parties involved.

A quality that makes a contract legally binding is that it is enforceable by law.

In the scenario given in the question above, Paul has not breached any contract because there isn't one. The promise to buy dinner has not been legally bound, therefore, it is not enforceable by law, in essence, it is not qualified to be called a contract.

Suppose the government decides that every family should own its own home. To bring this about, the government decides to subsidi

stira [4]

Answer:

d. the supply curve of new houses would shift rightward, since builders would be willing to produce and sell more houses at each given price.

Place more oil on the market this year, shifting the curve rightward.

Explanation:

1. In the given scenario the government is willing to give home-construction companies $10,000 for every house that they build.

This will result in more willingness on the part of the construction companies to build more houses.

More houses built means more income coming in from the government.

Therefore the supply curve of home building will shift to the right.

2. When oil producers expect prices of oil to increase in the next year, there is a need to control oil prices by increasing availability of oil in the market.

Increase in price results from a scarcity of oil. So to mitigate this excess oil is supplied to control price increase.

This action will shift the curve rightward.

Assume the initial present value of the payments on a lease are equal to the cost of the leased asset. This capital lease is rec

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: D) present value of the remaining lease payments.

Explanation:

When recording a capital lease in the balance sheet of the lessee, the amount recorded is the lower amount between the present value of the remaining lease payments or the cost of the leased asset.

As the cost of the leased asset is equal to the initial present value of the payments, the cost will therefore be higher than the current present value of the remaining payments so the appropriate amount to put in the balance sheet will be the current present value of the remaining lease payments.
