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

Answer:

Goodwill = 25,000

Explanation:

Goodwill is an intangible asset, is the differential reflected in a consolidated balance sheet immediately after the business combination between the purchase price of a company and the fair market value of identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price is higher than the sum of the fair value of all identifiable tangible and intangible assets purchased in the acquisition and the liabilities assumed in the process.

In this case:

Goodwill = Purchse Price - Net assets fair value

Goodwill = 340,000 - 315,000

Goodwill = 25,000

The difference between the book value and fair value of the acquired company are adjustments to the amount presented in the consolidated balance sheet.

Price Elasticity of Supply. The price elasticity of supply is calculated as the percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price.
 Using the Midpoint Method
 PES = ((Q2-Q1) / ((Q2 + Q1) / 2)) / ((P2-P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2))
 PES = (((10) - (7)) / (((10) + (7)) / 2)) / (((50) - (40)) / (((50) + (40)) / 2))
 PES = 1.59
 the elasticity of beth's labor supply between the wages of $ 40 and $ 50 per hour is approximately 1.59
 In this case, to 1% rise in price causes an increase in quantity supplied of 1.59%
