Answer:

y

beta

Explanation:

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

Opportunity cost of country X in producing alpha = 300 / 100 = 3 units of beta

Opportunity cost of country Y in producing alpha = 200 /100 = 2 units of beta

Y has a comparative advantage in the production of alpha

Opportunity cost of country X in producing beta = 100/ 300 = 0.3

Opportunity cost of country Y in producing beta = 100/200 = 0.5

X has a comparative advantage in the production of BETA

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Return on investment= 87.87 %

Explanation:

Dollar return on investment is the sum  of the capital gains and the dividend received all expressed as a percentage of the cost of the investment.

Total  cost = 250×104.32=26,080

Total capital  gain = (193.65- 104.32)× 250 = 22,332.5

Dividend = $2.34 per share×250 = 585

Dollar return on Investment = (585 +22,332.5) /26080 × 100

               = 87.87 %

ABC Corporation has noticed the following transactions havent been account for in its income statement for the year ended Decemb
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The proper amount of expenses to be included in the income statement for the year is $6,650

Explanation:

The computation of the expense amount which is included in the income statement is shown below:

= Repair expenses + electricity bill + insurance expense

= $4,650 + $800 + $1,200

= $6,650

The insurance expenses are given for the three months but we have to calculate for the 2 months only  

So for two months = $1,800 × 2 ÷ 3 = $1,200

And, the wages are given for the last year which is not included in the income statement as it shows outstanding wages. So, we do not consider it.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$181

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning:

Income tax payable = $54

Deferred tax liability = $75

Ending:

Income tax payable = $34

Deferred tax liability = $145

Tax expenses during the year = $231

Amount of tax paid during the year:

= Tax expenses during the year + (Beginning - ending tax payable) - (Ending - Beginning deferred tax liability)

= $231 + ($54 - $34) - ($145 - $75)

= $231 + $20 - $70

= $181
