Answer:
c. supply will decrease.
Explanation:
If a good's production process results in pollution and the government taxes producers to pay for cleanup costs, then supply will decrease.
Generally, when consumers of a particular product notices that the product has an adverse effect on the environment (pollution) or it is a product that causes environmental degradation, they are most likely to stop demanding or buying such products. Consequently, as the demand for such goods falls or decreases; there would be a fall in the supply of such goods. This is so because the demand for goods and services is directly proportional to the amount of quantity supplied.
Answer:
0%
Explanation:
Given that,
Growth rate of money supply = 3% per year
Real GDP growth rate = 3% per year
Velocity = Constant
According to the quantity growth theory of money,
M + V = P + Y
where,
M = Growth rate of money supply
V = Velocity
P = Inflation rate
Y = Real GDP growth rate
M + V = P + Y
3% + 0 = P + 3%
3% - 3% = P
0% = P
Therefore, the inflation rate is 0%.
Answer:
A. Opportunity cost
Explanation:
In Economics, Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.
Hence, the opportunity cost of a choice is the benefits that could be derived in from another choice using the same amount of resources.
For instance, if you decide to invest resources such as money in a food business (restaurant), your opportunity cost would be the profits you could have earned if you had invest the same amount of resources in a salon business or any other business as the case may be.
In this scenario, you choose to complete your homework rather than watch television so that you can earn a good grade. Therefore, you made the choice with the lowest opportunity cost.
Answer:
$1,490,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Direct Material used = $795,000
Wages to Line workers = $270,000
Indirect Materials used = $425,000
Total product cost for the year:
Direct Material used + Wages to Line workers + Indirect Materials used
= $795,000 + $270,000 + $425,000
= $1,490,000
Therefore, the total product costs for the year is $1,490,000.
Answer: Option(a) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct Option : Marginal cost curve above average variable cost for a typical firm in the market.
In a market of perfect competition, the shutdown price of the firms will be minimum point of average variable cost. So, there is supply of goods by the firms if the price is equal or above the shutdown point of the firm.
Therefore, the supply curve of the firm is the above part of the MC curve from the minimum point of average variable cost.
