Answer:
Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables
Explanation:
Vegetables Chicken Trade Off Ratio
John 40 10 4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)
George 25 5 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)
John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :
- John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
- George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).
So, John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.
- It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
- Unitary method:- '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .
Answer:
<u>Opportunity cost </u>
Explanation:
Suppose that a university decides to spend $ 1 milion to upgrade personal computers and scientific equipment for faculty rather than spend $ million to expand parking for students . This example illustrates<em><u> opportunity costs.</u></em>
<em>Opportunity cost refers to the cost shifting one opportunity to another opportunity or availing one opportunity in terms of another.</em>
Formula of Opportunity cost is :
<u>Opportunity cost</u> = Total Revenue - Economic Profit
Or
<u>Opportunity cost </u> = What one sacrifice / What one gain
In Opportunity cost we chose one thing or option over the cost of another thing or option. Opportunity cost places a important role in economic theory .
As it tell us that people can choose only one thing not the both things at the sane time.
The formula is
I=prt
I interest due ?
P principle 3500
R interest rate 0.05
T time 1 year
I=3,500×0.05×1
I=175

Answer:
Option (A) $130,000,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Excess reserves = $80,000,000
Checkable deposits = $500,000,000
Reserve requirement by the bank = 10%
Now,
The bank’s total amount of reserves will be
⇒ Reserve requirement × Checkable deposits
or
= 10% × $500,000,000
= 0.10 × $500,000,000
= $50,000,000
Hence,
the total amount of reserve = Required reserve + Excess reserves
= $80,000,000 + $50,000,000
= $130,000,000
Option (A) $130,000,000
