Answer:

The total loss in welfare to the economy will be -$32.

Explanation:

By intersecting the supply function QS to the demand function QD, we will find the equilibrium price:

QD = QS

16P - 8 = 64 - 16P

16P + 16P = 64 +8 =

32P = 72

P = $2.00

Replacing the equilibrium price either in QS or QD, we foind the equilibrium quantity:

QS = 64 - 16*2  = 64 -32

QS =  32

In this case the total revenues at the equilibrium price RE will be:

RE = 32 * $2 = $64

On the other hand if the government imposes a price floor at $3.00, then the new total revenues RN will be:

RN = 32 * $3 = $96

Therefore the total losses is find by subtracting the revenue at the goverment price floor RN to the revenue at the equilibrium price RE:

LT = RE - RN

LT = $64 - $96 = -$32

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

4,800 bottles

Explanation:

The formula to compute the number of bottles sold is shown below:

= (Fixed cost + target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)  

where,  

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit

= $15 - $13.50

= $1.50

So, the number of bottles sold equal to

= ($3,200 + $4,000) ÷ ($1.50)

= 4,800 bottles

Structural unemployment is sometimes said to result from a mismatch between the job skills that employers want and the job skill
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Due to the fact that the same amount of training is needed in each of the industries, wages would be the same. If wages were higher in the air craft industry, their would be an excess supply of labour in the airline industry.

Granting access to a user based upon how high up he is in an organization violates what basic security premise?
hodyreva [135]

Granting access to a user based upon how high up he is in an organization violates "the principle of least privileges."

As the principle of least privileges states that a person should be given only those privileges that are needed or are necessary to perform a specific job or task and nothing more.

The principle of least privileges states that you assign users the minimum set of privileges which they require to do their jobs, according to their roles.

The principle of least privilege prevents the spread of malware on your network. An administrator or superuser with access to a lot of other network resources and infrastructure could potentially end up spreading malware to all those other systems which he gets access to.

Hence, if the organization grants access to a user based upon how high up he is then the organization violates the principle of least privileges.
