Answer:

a) see attached image

b) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one helmet = 200 / 100 = 2 baseballs

c and d) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 200 = 0.5 helmets

Zanadu's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 400 = 0.25 helmets ⇒ Zanadu has a comparative and absolute advantage in the production of baseballs

e) yes, Atlantis would produce 100 helmets, and if it trades 50 to Zanadu, it will get 150 baseballs in return. So it will gain from trade. If Zanadu produces 400 baseballs and trades 150 of them for 50 helmets, it will also benefit.

Demand pull inflation is a situation whereby people have more buying power due to the availability of cash thereby leading to high demand and consequentially leading to an increase in the price of goods and services by suppliers.

That is the process where demand outplays supply due  to the high purchasing power thereby causing price to increase which is the demand pull inflation effect.

Book Value of assets = Book value of fixed assets + (Current Liabilities + Net working capital)

Book Value of assets = $4,200,000 + ($850,000 + $144,000)

Book Value of assets = $5,194,000

Sum of market value = $$7,600,000 + $115,000

Sum of market value = $7,715,000
