Answer:
production at this point is technically inefficient.
Explanation:
Efficient production processes requires a producer to either minimise the inputs they are using at a given output or maximise output level at a given input level.
Technical inefficiency is when input is not minimised or output maximised.
In the given instance the fixed cost (airplane) remains unchanged. However crew members can be variable.
If the airplane only requires 3 crew members and 4 crew members are now used, the company is not minimising inputs used so they are technically inefficient.
<u>Answer:</u>
Excise tax :$0.30 tax on a gallon gasoline
Consumption tax : 20% tax on wages earned
Income tax : 9% tax on the sale of luxuries
<u>Explanation:</u>
Excise tax are the taxes charged to individuals on purchase of certain goods. Excise taxes are included with the price of the product. One of the major excise tax is charged on the gasoline for vehicles.
Consumption tax are the indirect taxes that are charged on usage of goods and services. They are collected in the form of sales tax and value added tax.
Income tax is the tax collected by the government for earning money through business or work.
The budget constrain is how much of each good can Joe's buy and it's given by:
Income = P_f * Q_f +P_s * Q_s
P_f = Price_of_Food
Q_f = Quantity_of_Food
P_s = Price_of_Shelter
Q_s = Quantity_of_Shelter
In case a):
300 = 5*Q_f(a) + 100*Q_s
in case b):
300 = 10*Q_f(b) + 100*Q_s
To draw each line, you can make a graphic in which the x axis is Q_s and y axis is Q_f
set Q_f = 0 and solve for Q_s which gives => Q_s = 3 so, in the x axis the line will start in Q_s = 3
the same, and solve for Q_f and it'll give =>
Q_f(a) = 60
Q_f(b) = 30
So, from the start in x axis in Q_s = 3 you draw the line (a) to the y axis Q_f(a) = 60 and you draw the line (b) to the y axis Q_f(b) = 30
To get the oportunity cost you have to divide the cost of what is given up (food) by what is gained (shelter).
Oportunity_Cost_Food(a) = 5/100 = 0.05
Oportunity_Cost_Food(b) = 10/100 = 0.10
As you can see, the oportunity cost of food increase
