Answer:
These are the options for the question:
A. They should be more willing to tear down the $5 million stadium, because it cost less to build.
B. They should be more willing to tear down the $50 million stadium, because it cost more to build.
C. The cost to build the old stadium shouldn’t be considered.
And this is the correct answer:
A. They should be more willing to tear down the $5 million stadium, because it cost less to build.
Explanation:
City A will likely be more willing to tear down its old stadium because it costed $5 million to build. City B, on the other hand, will have to think twice because a stadium that costed $50 billion to build could have more value than it seems, or the City could simply not have enough money to build a better new stadium (something that would probably cost more than $50 billion to do).
Answer:
d. Mexico has nothing to gain from importing United States pork.
Explanation:
The principle of comparative advantage asserts that countries (in this case Mexico) are better off importing certain goods (in this case pork), given that the opportunity cost of importing such goods are less in comparison to the production costs of manufacturing them within the country.
By definition, a country is said to have a <em>comparative advantage</em> over another, when they can produce a certain good or service at a lower marginal or opportunity cost.
Answer: B. D) are not materially different from ethical principles in general.
Explanation:
Ethical Principles are Ethical Principles. It doesn't really matter what context they are being applied to for they are a standard thing with reference of course, to the society the business is based in. For this reason Business Ethics are not materially different from general ethics.
Business Ethics are usually a reflection of the norms and cultures of the society they are based in. Think of it like this, if a company is based in a certain place and adheres to principles that are different from what is considered ethical in that society, do you think that company will be very profitable? I think not. Business Ethics are therefore based on General ethics with an immaterial difference.
Answer:
Total cost= $877,500
Explanation:
<u> First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:</u>
Unitary variable cost= 135,000 / 30,000= $4.5
Unitary variable cost= 180,000 / 40,000= $4.5
Unitary variable cost= 225,000 / 50,000= $4.5
<u>Now, the total cost for 35,000 hours:</u>
Total cost= Unitary variable cost*total number of hours + fixed costs
Total cost= 4.5*35,000 + 720,000
Total cost= $877,500
