Answer: option C ; convex to the origin
Explanation:
Indifference curves shows the indifference of a customer to a combination of goods. It shows that a customer can have some level of satisfaction from either good. The indifference curve slopes downwards from left to right because as there is an increase in consumption of one good, there is lower for other goods. The curve convex at the origin to show the marginality in consuming one good over another.
Answer:
Product Implied Warranty
According to the Uniform Commercial Code, a product warranty guarantees that a product will work when used for its intended purposes. There are two key types of implied warranties: merchantability and fitness. The implied warranty of merchantability states that a product will meet reasonable expectations of the buyer. The implied warranty of fitness means that the product will meet the buyer's intended use.
Based on the above, we can conclude that the implied warranty of merchantability actually exists for the hair dryer. However, Patrick clearly violated it in this situation through the accident of dropping it in water.
Having thus violated the warranty, he cannot reasonably recover any damages from the company.
Explanation:
a) Facts of the case:
1. Every hair dryer is properly labeled and contains safety precautions against misuse.
2. The SF9000 hair dryer that Patrick purchased functioned properly for a month.
3. Patrick accidentally drops the hair dryer in water, causing him an electric shock.
4. Patrick sues for breach of the implied warranty of merchantability.
Answer:
Total cost of transferred to finished goods inventory = $ 136,500
Explanation:
To value cost of transferred finished goods, we multiply the cost per equivalent unit of production (cost per EUP) by the the number of equivalent units (EUP) for each of the cost element.
So the value of the finished inventory, is determined as follows:
Value of inventory = cost per E.U.P × number of E.U.P
Direct Material = $5.00 × 21,000 =$ 105,000
Conversion cost = $1.50 × 21,000= $31,500
Total cost of transferred to finished goods inventory =
$ 105,000 + $31,500
= $ 136,500
An individual is a member of the population of interest. A variable is an aspect of an individual subject or object.
Answer: b. The instrument is correlated with x1.
d. The instrument does not directly influence y, except through x1.
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the necessary characteristics of a suitable instrument include:
• The instrument is correlated with x1.
• The instrument does not directly influence y, except through x1.
Some of the criteria for an instrument variable are the fact that it should have a causal effect on independent variable and also the dependent variable isn't directly affected except through the independent variable which is x1 in this scenario.
Therefore, the correct option are B and D.
