The answer is explained in detail below

Explanation:

a_{KC} = 2

a_{LC} = 2

a_{KF} = 3

a_{LF} = 1

Labor, L = 2000; Capital, K = 3000  

Labour constraint,

2Q_{c} + Q_{F} \leq 2000

Capital constraint ,

2Q_{c} + 3Q_{F} \leq 3000  

Solving the equation further, we get

Q_{F} \leq 2000 - 2Q_{C}

Q_{F} \leq 1000 - \frac{2}{3} Q_{C}

  • The range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food is  2/3 and 2
  • Low cloth production → economy will use relatively more labor to  produce cloth → opportunity cost of cloth is 2/3rd units of food.
  • High cloth  production → economy dips on labor → taking capital away from food  production → raising opportunity cost of cloth to 2 units of food.  
  • If relative price of cloth lies between 2/3 and  2 units of food, the economy  produces both goods.
  • If the price of cloth decreases below 2/3 → complete  specialization in food production → low compensation for producing cloth
  • If the price of cloth  rises above 2 → complete specialization in cloth production → low compensation for producing  food

Do you think it is easier to increase or decrease government spending
Anna35 [415]
It is much easier to increase government spending, because it gives a temporary boost, whereas decreasing it would take away the benefits you had before, and might mess up other "things" that relied on that part you just removed to decrease government spending.

If you hold a $100 U.S. Treasury Bill, this means: (Select all that apply) Helpful Hint: There are 2 correct answers. The U.S. g
egoroff_w [7]

The U.S. government owes you $100.

Option 1 is correct .

Treasury Bills:

Treasury bills, or T-bills, have the shortest terms of all and are issued with maturity dates of four, eight, 13, 26, and 52 weeks.

Treasury Bill Characteristics:

Unlike Treasury bonds and notes, T-bills do not pay periodic interest payments to investors. Instead, Treasury bills are auctioned off to investors at a discount to their face value. The investor's return is the difference between the face value and the discount price paid at purchase.

How Do You Cash a Treasury Bond?

For Treasury bonds held with a bank or broker, consult the institution to redeem them.

For Treasury bonds in Treasury Direct (electronically), investors don't need to take any action since the bond will be cashed out at maturity and deposited into your account as long as you supply your bank information to Treasury Direct.

Treasury Bonds :

Treasury bonds, called T-bonds for short, are often referred to as long bonds because they take the longest to mature of the government-issued securities. Treasury bonds are offered to investors in terms of 20 and 30 years to maturity.

Miguel owns a bicycle-based courier service named Speed2U. The brand's focus is on fast delivery within 15 minutes from anywhere
Vitek1552 [10]

Miguel did not focus on differentiation. Differentiation in marketing refers to that thing about your company or product that makes you unique and better than everyone else. Speed2U's competitive advantage is their delivery speed. Miguel should have responded that what makes Speed2U unique is their ability to deliver in 15 minutes or less.
