Negative externalities occur when an individual or firm making a choice negatively affect other parties. A driver who recklessly drives a car on a busy highway is a negative externality because the amusement of the driver is negatively affecting other people.

Answer:
50,500 Units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units produced is shown below:
Overhead rate is
= $200,000 ÷ 50,000 units
= $4 per unit
The Actual overhead is $222,000
So,
Under applied overhead is $20,000
Now
Applied overhead is
= $222,000 - $20,000
= $202,000
And, finally
Actual unit produced is
= $202000 ÷ 4
= 50,500 Units
Answer:
(c) 7.5 bars, 2/15 shirts
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is simply defined as the next best alternative.
Opportunity cost also refers to the loss of foregone gain which could have resulted had a non chosen option been selected over the chosen option. For instance, the opportunity cost of storing money at home is the average market rate of interest which would've been earned had the same money been invested.
In the given question, the opportunity cost of a t shirt would be :
= 
= 7.5 protein bars
Similarly, the opportunity cost for a protein bar would be:
= 
= 
Thus, the correct option is (c) 7.5 bars, 2/15 shirts
Answer:
Cheese is a complement for hamburgers. If the price of hamburgers rises, the quantity of hamburgers demanded will <em>fall</em>, which will lead to a <em>fall in the demand</em> for cheese, as cheese and hamburgers are complements to each other. A rise in price of a complementary good will lead to a fall in demand for the complementary good as well. Because of the change in <em>demand</em> for cheese the equilibrium quantity of cheese will <em>fall</em> and the equilibrium price for cheese will also <em>fall</em>, the demand for milk by cheese producers will <em>decline</em>, causing the equilibrium price of milk to <em>fall</em>. This means producers of butter face <em>lower</em> input prices and the supply of butter will <em>rise</em>. The resulting <em>decline</em> in the price of butter causes people to substitute <em>jam for butter</em>, so the demand for jam will <em>decline</em>.
