Answer:
equilibrium price would fall and equilibrium quantity would increase
Explanation:
The discovery would reduce the amount of crops now lost to frost damage and increase the supply of crops e.g. potato.

Please check the attached image for a graph showing increase in supply
Answer:
Total= 45,684 feet
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production budget:
February= 10,993
March= 8,559
Each chair produced uses 5 board feet of wood.
Management wants an ending inventory level of raw materials to equal 20% of the production needs (in wood) for the next month.
Direct material budget:
Production= 10,993*5= 54,965
Desired ending inventroy= (8,559*5)*0.2= 1,712
Beginning inventory= (10,993*5)*0.2= (10,993)
Total= 45,684 feet
