<span>A firm is located along a
river, which uses water from the river to cool its machinery and returns the
water to the river several degrees warmer, which has led to a decline in the
fish population downstream of the firm. If the firm does not have to pay for
the damage to the downstream fish, the market equilibrium price will be efficient
and the market equilibrium quantity will be efficient.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
N(a) = -a² +300a + 6
Taking the differential of the above equation with respect to "a"
Then;
N'(a) = - 2a + 300
where;
the Critical points N'(a) = 0
-2a + 300 = 0
-2a = -300
a = -300/-2
a = 150
Now;
N(0) = -(0)² +300(0) + 6
N(150) = (-150)² +300(150) + 6 =22506
N(300) = (-300)² +300(300) + 6 = 6
∴
The max. number of the possible unit that can be sold = 22506
The amount spent on advertising to get to this goal = 150 thousand dollars

None of the other answers is correct.
Explanation:
Williams A. Phillips was a notable economist born in New Zealand. Phillips wrote a famous article titled "The Relation between Unemployment and the Rate of Change of Money Wage Rates in the United Kingdom, 1861-1957" published in 1958 by Economica. In the article, he used data for the United Kingdom (U.K) to illustrate on a graph, a negative or inverse relationship between the rate of change of employee wages in the U.K and the unemployment rate in the United Kingdom (U.K).
Consequently, using the Phillips curve it is practically impossible for policymakers to reduce both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate because as the inflation rate decreases; the unemployment rate increases and vice-versa.
However, according to the Phillips curve, policymakers can reduce inflation and increase unemployment if aggregate demand is contracted.
Answer:
Annual interest rate = 8.23%
Explanation:
The annual interest rate i must have earn over the last 8 years to accomplish this goal is:
= ((25650/(9000*(1+6.1%)^7))^(1/8))-1
= ((25650/(9000*1.513588))^(1/8)) - 1
= ((25650/13622.29)^(1/8) - 1
= 1.882943323038931^(1/8) - 1
= 1.08231743862 - 1
= 0.08231743862
= 8.231743862%
= 8.23%
Answer:
Explanation:
For Navy contract, the total number of man hours put into production will be:
= 27 × 40 × 2
= 2160 man hours
Then, the units produced per labor hour will be:
= 2540 devices / 2160
= 1.176 units per labor hour.
For Army contracts, the total number of man hours put into production will be:
= 37 × 40 × 3
= 4440 man hours
Then, the units produced per labor hour will be:
= 5940/4440
= 1.338 units per labor hour.
