Answer:

While it was true that the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. In fact, the opposite occurred. Cotton growing became so profitable for the planters that it greatly increased their demand for both land and slave labor.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The correct option is (b)

Explanation:

Given:

Monthly payment for 6 months = $30 per month

Time period = 6 month (6 periods)

Monthly interest rate = 2%

In order to compute borrowed amount, present value of these payments need to be computed which is an annuity as same amount of $30 is paid.

Checking PVIFA table for 2%, 6 periods, annuity factor is 5.6014.

Borrowed amount = Monthly payment × PVIFA(2%,6)

= 30 × 5.6014

= $168.042

Borrowed amount is $168.042 or $168.22 approximately (difference in value due to annuity factor being rounded off)

Suppose that a friend asks you to drive him to the airport this weekend so that he can catch a flight. He pays you for the gas u

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Implicit Imputed opportunity cost of time sacrifised while airport drop .

Explanation:

My friend asking me to drop at airport, & paying costs : gas used while driving, parking cost of car - has excluded certain price giving aspects.

He has included all the Explicitly quantified costs , whose payment is made to third person - like fuel & parking.

However, he has not included the implicit cost in terms of opportunity cost i.e other things sacrifised while going to drop him. Such costs payment is although not directly made to third person, but they still reflect a 'cost' as they reflect a gain sacrifised meanwhile.

In this case, it includes time sacrifised while going to drop friend at airport. That time could be used at work, which could have monetary benefits. So, this cost is eliminated to be evaluated by my friend.
