Answer:

The answer is "Option B"

Explanation:

In this question, Higher incomes and profits are correct because it minimizes the congestion operating frequency by 10%. It takes a long time and decreasing the processing, which would have had an impact on revenue and profit directly. Performance would grow, generating additional sales, that's why choice b is correct.

Baka Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, th
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $188,627

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $241,800

Estimated direct labor hour= 6,800

Actual direct labor-hours were 5,300.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 241,800/6,800= $35.59 per direct labor hour.

Now, based on actual direct labor hours, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 35.59*5,300= $188,627

If the same number of units of good Y must be given up as each successive unit of good X is produced, then the PPF for these two
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

PPF : Downward Sloping Straight Line

Explanation:

PPF is the locus of product combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

It is downward sloping : Because of inverse relationship between two goods- if one has to be increased other has to be decreased , because of same resources & technology.

Marginal Opportunity Cost (Slope of PPC): is ratio of a good sacrifised to gain each additional unit of the other good.

∆ Good sacrifised / ∆ Good gained

If this ratio is same i.e constant amount of a good is sacrifised to gain an additional amount of the other one , the slope of PPC is constant & it is a straight line

Eg : Good1    Good2     MOC [∆Good2/∆Good1]

      0               20             _        

      10             10           -10/10 = -1                  (10-20)/(10-0)

       20              0           -10/10 = -1                   (0-10)(/20-10)

So , same (1) good 2 is sacrifised to attain a good 1 each time.

However Generally: MOC is increasing , because of assumption that resources are unequally efficient in various goods production - shifting good from efficient to inefficient increases sacrifise each time. This makes PPC usually concave.

Suppose Germany, a large country, imposes a tariff on tuna imports. Before the tariff, all the countries in the world are engage
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

1. This is true.

The Germans will pay a higher price for tuna because the tariff will increase the price of imported tuna and the reduction in completion with the local producers will lead to higher prices as the local producers take up their price.

2. This is true.

German producers no longer have to compete as much with imported tuna which was cheaper. They will therefore be able to raise their prices.

3. This statement is false.

The world price of Tuna DOES NOT increase because the tariff is only applicable in Germany. Other parts of the world will trade tuna as before. This is what is assumed.

4. This statement is true.

If Vietnam was exporting tuna to Germany, they will become worse off because they will see a decline in demand for their tuna on account of the tariffs making the tuna more expensive.

5. This is false.

Vietnamese tuna consumers will still pay the same price to get tuna because Vietnam produces the tuna. It is Vietnam's producers that will suffer not the consumers.

The quantity demanded of cereal increased from 1,350 to 1,700 when the price of milk decreased from $2.05 to $1.65. What is the
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

-1.33

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good X to changes in price of good Y.

Cross price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded of good X / percentage change in price of good Y

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (1700 / 1350) - 1 = 0.2593 = 25.93%

Percentage change in price = (1.65 / 2.05) - 1 = -0.1951 = -19.51%

25.93% / -19.51% = -1.33
