Initially, suppose Bellissima uses 1 million hours of labor to produce rye and 3 million hours to produce jeans, while Dolorium

uses 3 million hours of labor to produce rye and 1 million hours to produce jeans. Consequently, Dolorium produces 32 million pairs of jeans and 24 million bushels of rye, and Bellissima produces 72 million pairs of jeans and 12 million bushels of rye. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of rye and jeans it produces.
Dolorium's opportunity cost of producing one bushel of rye is_________ of jeans, and Bellissima's opportunity cost of producing one bushel of rye is _______ of jeans. Therefore, ________ has a comparative advantage in the production of rye and ________ has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.
Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces rye will produce_________ bushels, and the country that produces jeans will produce _____ pairs. In the table at the end of this problem, enter each country's production decision on the second row (marked "Production").

Answer:

Bellisima's opportunity cost:  

Production of rye per million hours of labor = 24 / 12 = 2 pairs of jeans

Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 12 / 24 = 0.5 bushels of rye

Dolorium's opportunity cost:  

Production of rye per million hours of labor = 32 / 8 = 4 pairs of jeans

Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 8 / 32 = 0.25 bushels of rye

Dolorium has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans while Bellisima has a comparative advantage in the production of rye.

If both countries specialize:

Bellisima will produce 48 million bushels of rye.

Dolorium will produce 128 million pairs of jeans.

Total production of rye has increased by 12 million bushels.

Total production of jeans has increased by 24 million pairs.

A. a debit to Interest Expense for $ 36, 000

Explanation:

Based on the information given we were told that Flipco has note payable on January​ 1, 2018, of the amount of $800,000 and on December 31 we were told that the loan requires annual principal payments of the amount of $80,000 in addition with 5​% interest. This means that the Journal entry to record the transaction on December​ 31, 2019​ will includes a Debit to interest expense for $36,000 calculated as :

Interest expense= $800,000-$80,000

Interest expense=( $720,000* 5%* 12/12)

Interest expense =$36,000

Therefore the Journal entry to record the annual payment on December​ 31, 2019​ will includes :

A Debit to interest expense for $36,000

irakobra [83]

Answer:

70

Explanation:

12X+6(105-X)=105*10

12X+630-6X=1050

6X=1050-630

6X=420

X=420/6

So,

  • X=70 LBS. OF $12 CASHEWS IS USED.
  • 105-70=35 LBS. OF $6 TRAIL MIX IS USED.

<u>PROOF: </u>

12*70+6*35=105*10

840+210=1050

1050=1050

Say that Alland can produce 32 units of food per person per year or 16 units of clothing per person per year, but Georgeland can
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

a.Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.

Explanation:

A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other countries.

A person has an absolute advantage in production if it produces more quantities of the good when compared with other countries.

Georgeland produces more quantities of both food and clothes when compared to Alland, so it has absolute advantage in both activities .

The opportunity cost of georgeland in producing clothes = 36 / 18=2

The opportunity cost of georgeland producing food = 18 / 36 = 0.5

For Alland,

the opportunity cost of producing clothes = 32 / 16= 2

the opportunity cost of producing food = 16 / 32 = 0.5

Neither countries don't have a comparative advantage in the production of either clothes of food bedside they have the same opportunity costs in both activities.
