Business
1 answer:
jonny [76]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. Anywhere inside or on the production possibilities frontier.

Explanation:

In an economy, the allocative efficiency may be defined as the economic state where the production of various goods or services is aligned with the preferences with the consumers.  

The allocative efficiency always materializes at the intersection of the supply curves and the demand curves.

On the \text{equilibrium point,} the price for a supply \text{exactly matches} with the demand for the product \text{for that supply} at that price, and thus all the products are sold.

It occurs anywhere on the production possibilities frontier or on the inside of the frontier.

Therefore, the correct option is (a).

a.) Both price and quantity increase

b.) Both price and quantity decrease

c.) Price increases and quantity decreases

d.) Price decreases and quantity increases

e.) Insufficient information

Explanation:

If the supply of a product or service  increases in the market, it means that there will be an increase in the quantity of that product/service. Due to the interplay of  the law of demand and supply, competition among suppliers will increase, driving the price down. Therefore, there will be a  fall the equilibrium price and increase in quantity , making choice D correct.

Grizzly Company had Retained Earnings at December 31, 2018 of $210,000. During 2019, the company had revenues of $410,000 and ba
NISA [10]

Answer:

Retained earnings on the December 31, 2019: $253,000

Explanation:

Ending balance in retained earnings is calculated by using following formula:

Ending balance in retained earnings = Beginning balance in retained earnings + Net income - Cash dividends - Stock dividends

Grizzly Company had Retained Earnings at December 31, 2018 of $210,000.  Beginning balance in retained earnings at January 01, 2019 is $210,000

Net income = Revenues - Expenses = $410,000 - $355,000 = $55,000

Ending balance in retained earnings = $210,000 + $55,000 - $12,000 = $253,000

A mining company owns two mines, each of which produces three grades (high, medium, and low) of ore. The company has a contract
sashaice [31]

Answer:

They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.

Explanation:

The formulation of the linear programming is:

Objective function:

C=200M_1+160M_2

Restrictions:

- High-grade ore: 6M_1+2M_2\geq12

- Medium-grade ore: 2M_1+2M_2\geq8

- Low-grade ore: 4M_1+12M_2\geq24

- No negative hours: M_1,M_2\geq0

We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.

In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.

In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.

Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.

(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).

The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.

The cost function graph is attached.

All of the following statements regarding leases are true except : A. For a capital lease the lessee records the leased item as
faust18 [17]

Answer: B. Capital leases do not transfer ownership of the asset under the lease, but operating leases often do.

Explanation:

When using Capital Leases, the lessee will record the lease as if it were their own asset and as a result will also depreciate it. The lessee will also create a long term liability on their balance sheet for the asset.

Capital leases usually also involve a transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term. Operating Leases on the other hand do not have these features. They are more like a rental of an asset and as such are recorded as a rental expense in the books of the lessee. The ownership remains with the lessor in an Operating Lease and the asset will be returned once the lease period is over.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

It seems that someinformation is missing, nevertheless, it is possible to calculate the market value of the firm if you have the total number of shares.

Explanation:

In this case, if the question says that the "outstanding shares" haven't changed, it means that the total number of shares neither, therefore it is possible to get the market value by multiplying $180 (the stock price for 1 share) per the total number of shares
