Answer: A. 2 units of rice.

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of producing lumber is:

= Maximum rice production / maximum lumber production

= 100 / 300

= 1/3 units of rice

If the country wants to increase its lumber production by 6, it will incur an opportunity cost of:

= 6 * 1/3

= 2 units of rice

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The Sheen’s cash flows from operating activities is $95 million

Explanation:

Cash flows from operating activities :

The cash flow from operating activities includes all those activities which are of short term period. Like changes in working capital or we can say increase in currents assets or decrease in current assets or increase/decrease in current liabilities.

The increase in current liabilities increase the cash balance, hence it is added and decrease in current liabilities decrease the cash balance. But in the case of current asset, it is opposite.

The depreciation expense and loss on sale of equipment is added. So, we take them in the computation part.

The cash flow from operating activities is equals to

= Net income + depreciation expenses + loss on sale of equipment - increase in accounts receivable +  increase in accounts payable - increase in inventory

= $90 + $3 + $2 - $1 + $4 - $3

= $95 million

Hence, the Sheen’s cash flows from operating activities is $95 million

vodomira [7]
<h3>Answer: Neither. They will use International Law. </h3>

Explanation:

When companies from different countries get  into a contract, it is quite desirable that they stipulate which country's laws that they will abide by should the need arise.

However, if this is not done, there is still a method of enforcing. When not specifically listed, contract between companies from different countries falls under a branch of Private International law which is International Contract Law which is synonymous with International Sales law.

This law falls under the jurisdiction of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) which came into effect in January 1988.

Both France and the United States of America have ratified the law and so Cowboy Hats is free to take legal action within this framework if they so please.

Many new restaurants have opened in Collegetown in recent years. Given this change in supply, what type of demand would result i
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: Inelastic demand

Explanation:

When new restaurants have opened in College town in recent years, the supply for restaurant meals increase. This will lead to a rightward shift in the supply curve for restaurant meals leading to a fall in the price and an increase in the quantity. The fall in price will be larger the more inelastic demand is.  When demand is more elastic then a fall in price will be less when supply increases.
