Light emitting diodes (LED) light bulbs have become required in recent years, but do they make financial sense? Suppose a typica

tangare [24]

Answer:

Annual wattage cost of 60 watts is $3.729

Annual LED cost of 60 watts is $0.185

total annual cost = $3.914

Annual wattage cost of 15 watts is $0.935

Annual LED cost of 15 watts is $0.125

total annual cost = $1.06

l

Explanation:

For the cost of LED and durability

it is require to use a light fixture 500 hours per year

60-watt incandescent light bulb costs $.37 and lasts 1,000 hours. that mean, its last for 2years before buying a new one.

And for a 15-watt LED, costs $3.00 and lasts for 12,000 hours, thats means it will last for 24 years before purchase of another.

assuming, will are using the 60watts for 24years, a cost of $.37*12times = $4.44 will be use for buying.

therefore, a 15 watts LED is more cheaper.

For the current charges of LED

for 60watts

if A kilowatt-hour of electricity costs $.113 =

1000 watts = 1hour = $0.113

60 watts = 1hour = (60*0.133/1000) = $0.0068

it is said that, the consumption is for 500 hour per year.

therefore, 60watts used per year = 500*0.0068 = $3.39

return of 10% =0.339.

total cost of watts for 500hr for a year = 3.39+0.339 = $3.729

Annual wattage cost of 60 watts is $3.729

Annual LED cost of 60 watts ($0.37/2year) is $0.185

total annual cost = $3.914

for 15 watts

if A kilowatt-hour of electricity costs $.113 =

1000 watts = 1hour = $0.113

15 watts = 1hour = (15*0.133/1000) = $0.0017

it is said that, the consumption is for 500 hour per year.

therefore, 15 watts used per year = 500*0.0017 = $0.85

return of 10% =0.085.

total cost of watts for 500hr for a year = 0.85+0.085 = $0.935

Annual wattage cost of 15 watts is $0.935

Annual LED cost of 15 watts ($3/24 years) is $0.125

total annual cost = $1.06

A television advertisement shows several teenagers searching through the refrigerator for something to satisfy their hunger. The

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The answer for the first blank is needs, the second blank is preferences.

Explanation:

The need for sustenance is a primary drive for all living creatures, including humans. The advertisement shows this by casting hungry teenagers who are seeking to fulfill this drive. Since the company producing this advertisement sells Hot Pocket, they wanted to associate ‘fulfilling the hunger drive’ with their product. That way, customers who view this advertisement are more likely to choose Hot Pocket compared to its competitors.

1. Famous celebrities and the super-wealthy oftentimes pay others to do many of their household tasks for them. For example, the

poizon [28]

Explanation:

1) Famous celebrities and the people with lots of money are often seen with workers round them for their household chores/tasks. Although they are paying money for the work they could have done by themselves but if we analyze closely, they are actually taking advantage of the opportunity cost. The time when they were suppose to do the household work, now they are performing other task in that time which will be giving them much greater economic benefit, taking advantage of the concept of opportunity cost. For example, Cristiano Ronaldo can focus on his workout and daily exercise instead of making daily meals for himself, so he should have hired someone to do the meal work for him while he perform his workout which will help him on the field and will earn him much money.

2) Yes, it is possible for 2 countries to benefit from trade as a whole because they can get into an agreement by allowing free trade between the countries, for example, both the countries could agree that all the trade which will be executed between them would be tax free and no duties will be paid on them. This way the trade numbers would increase and industrialization would take place to meet the export/import orders. On the contrary, trading individually can be not so beneficial because there will be no free trade agreements between individuals i.e. no free lunches, that is why it could cost individuals much more than they can make money out of it.

3) One of the main reasons to oppose policies that restrict trade among the nations is that GDP. GDP is a measure of growth in any country, therefore when there will be no trade among countries, it would result in less productions of goods and services which which lead to less industrialization, which then will result to low employment and more unemployment, ultimately resulting in very low growth for any country and since growth is the only way forward for any nation, economists oppose policies that restrict trade among countries/nations.

I hope this detailed answer of mine help the poster.

Thank You and Good Luck.
