Answer:

These are the answer choices for the question:

Students do not have good nutritional information.

Soda purchases represent a large fraction of students' budgets.

There are few other places to purchase soda on campus.

The price elasticity of demand for soda is equal to 1.

And this is the correct answer choice:

There are few other places to purchase soda on campus.

Explanation:

If vending machines raise the price of soda by two, by the still sell almost the same amount, this means that they have a monopoly over the selling of soda in campus, and that students continue to buy there because they do not have any other feasible alternatives.

This is the problem with monopolies: they can charge very high prices and still make a profit because they will always have demand, but this very act makes consumers worse off, and reduces general social welfare.

b. It would be impossible for Korea to have an absolute advantage over another country in both products.

c. Korea is efficient in the production of both goods.

d. Korea's opportunity cost of shoes is the inverse of its opportunity cost of soccer balls.

Answer:

d. Korea's opportunity cost of shoes is the inverse of its opportunity cost of soccer balls.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is defined as the cost of choosing or picking particular option or alternative over another option or alternative.

In question, we are told that Korea is capable of producing either shoes or soccer balls or some combination of the two.

Therefore Korea would have to make a list of priorities also know as alternatives or options, to decide if

a. they would produce shoes,

b. or soccer balls

c. or a combination of both shoes or soccer balls.

This process described here is the process of Opportunity cost. Korea would then weigh their options and choose which is better for them either based on profit or any other reason.

Hence, Korea's opportunity cost of shoes is the inverse of its opportunity cost of soccer balls.

givi [52]

Answer: False

Explanation:

While a review of resumé would give some information about the job a physical interview would give a proper insight on the capabilities of the pool of applicants for the job.

So also verbal communication would help you access their strengths and properly allocate them to departments where they would be most efficient if selected.

A resumé wouldn’t give you such opportunities.
