Answer: Nether Australia or Europe

Explanation:

Purchasing power parity is a notion that states that prices of the same or similar goods should have the same price across the world after adjusting for exchange rate differences.

If the price of a tall latte in the U.S. is $4,00, it should be the same price in Europe and Australia after exchange rate adjustments.

$4.00 in Euro is:                                                  $4.00 in Australian dollars is:

= 4 * 0.8                                                                 = 4 * 1.4

= €3.20                                                                 = $5.60

Purchasing power parity does not hold in wither countries because the prices of the lattes are not equal to the $4.00 in the U.S. after adjustments for exchange rates.

love history [14]

Answer:

<h2>In this case,the correct answer would be option b) given in the answer choices or More time to explore new revenue generation activities.</h2>

Explanation:

  • From an economic or business perspective, outsourcing of operational activities or conducts refer to assigning the business functions, activities, projects, assignments etc. to any third party or external agency with a view to enhance work productivity and minimize overall average operational costs or expenses.
  • The third party or the external entities involved in the outsourcing activities are typically not part of the parent or main company or are not commercially affiliated with the parent or main company.
  • One of the advantages of outsourcing to the company executives is to be able to assign some of the major and time consuming business activities to outsourced companies or entities and focus more on other mediums or sources of revenue generation for business. It might include introduction of new product or service lines, restructuring of the internal organizational settings or venturing new markets to capture higher consumer or client base. Hence, higher work or labor division through outsourcing activities can provide more time and opportunity for executives to focus more on other revenue generating endeavors.

Suppose France can produce four phones or three computers with one unit of labor, and Sweden can produce one phone or two comput
lesya [120]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

France can produce four phones or three computers:

Opportunity cost of producing one phone = (3 ÷ 4)

                                                                      = 0.75 computers

Opportunity cost of producing one computer = (4 ÷ 3)

                                                                      = 1.33 phones

Sweden can produce one phone or two computers:

Opportunity cost of producing one phone = (2 ÷ 1)

                                                                      = 2 computers

Opportunity cost of producing one computer = (1 ÷ 2)

                                                                      = 0.5 phones

Therefore,

France has a comparative advantage in producing phones because of the lower opportunity cost of producing it than Sweden. France should specialize in producing phones and import computers from Sweden.

Sweden has a comparative advantage in producing computers because of the lower opportunity cost of producing it than France. Sweden should specialize in producing computers and import phones from France.

Hence Bill is well Informed.

Now Bill tested his umbrella and they were OK, it doesn't rule out the fact and the possibility of 14 out 100 to be bad, this can be in a form of factory error.
