Answer:

$ 40

Explanation:

Given :

Bid price = $ 50

Ask price = $ 50.2

Ideal price = $\frac{\text{bid price + ask price}}{2}$

                 $=\frac{50+50.2}{2}$

                = $ 50.1

This is the ideal price of the stock that is based on the mid point price.

The transactional cost for the buy is  = Ask price - ideal price

                                                             = 50.2 - 50.1

                                                             = $ 0.1

Thus we have to give $ 0.1 as the transactional cost if we want tot buy the stock immediately, so that we buy it more than the ideal price.

Therefore, the transactional cost for the sales is = ideal cost - bid cost

                                                                                 = $ 50.1 - $ 50

                                                                                 = $ 0.1

Thus we have to pay $ 0.1  as the transactional cost if we want to sell the stock now, so as to sell it cheaper than the ideal price.

We known the quantity = 200

So the round up transactional cost = $\text{quantity}\times \text{transactional cost(buy)+transactional cost(sale)}$

= 200 x (0.1 +0.1)

= $ 40

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The flood shifts the supply to the left.

The increase in healthcare costs shifts the supply curve to the left.

Explanation:

An increase in the cost of production inputs (increase in health costs) or a decrease in the availability of resources (the flood reduced the firm's production capability), will shift the supply curve to the left.

A leftward shift of the supply curve will lower the quantity supplied and will increase the price of the good at every level of demand.

A manufacturer makes two types of handmade fancy paper bags: type A and type B. Two designers—a cutter and a finisher—need to wo
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Type A to produce 44 bags and Type B to produce 16 bags to maximize profit of $440

Explanation:

Let X be the number of bags for Type A and Y be the number of bags for Type  B

                                      Cutter              Finisher

Type A                              2X                   1X    =   $6X

Type B                  <u>             1Y                   2Y     =  $11Y</u>

                                        104                  76

2x+1y= 104

1x+2y=76

y= 104-2x

x+2(104-2x) = 76

x+ 208-4x = 76

132= 3x

x= 44 bags

y= 104-2(44)

y= 16 bags

Type A should produce 44 bags and Type B 16 bags to maximize profit

Maximum Profit = 6X + 11Y

                         = 6(44) + 11(16)

                        = $440
