Answer: C. use 0.8 fewer units of capital.

Explanation:

The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution (MRTS) shows how much you can decrease capital or labor by in order to keep production constant if you increase either capital or labor.

It is calculated by the formula:

= Marginal product of labor  / Marginal product of capital

= 4 / 5

= 0.8

<em>The firm should use 0.8 fewer units of capital in order to maintain the same production level. </em>

Why are Management styles so important to an organisation success?.....
jekas [21]

Management styles are important because they effect how well a business runs and operates. Good management, teamwork, and communication make a positive work experience for the employees and a good experience for the customer. Now say that the management has bad communication and teamwork. The business will not run smoothly and customers will be less likely to return, long story short good management= good business and good business= returning customers and returning customers= profit.

uppose a Starbucks tall latte cost $4.00 in the United States, 5.00 euros in the euro area and $2.50 Australian dollars in Austr
max2010maxim [7]

Answer: Nether Australia or Europe

Explanation:

Purchasing power parity is a notion that states that prices of the same or similar goods should have the same price across the world after adjusting for exchange rate differences.

If the price of a tall latte in the U.S. is $4,00, it should be the same price in Europe and Australia after exchange rate adjustments.

$4.00 in Euro is:                                                  $4.00 in Australian dollars is:

= 4 * 0.8                                                                 = 4 * 1.4

= €3.20                                                                 = $5.60

Purchasing power parity does not hold in wither countries because the prices of the lattes are not equal to the $4.00 in the U.S. after adjustments for exchange rates.
