Answer:
5.25 containers are needed
Explanation:
Given:
Total Demand for 8 hour = 600
Safety stock = 50%
Container size = 100
Lead hour = 3 hour
Computation of container required:
Demand for an hour = 600/8 = 75
Safety stock = 50% of 600 = 300
Needed container = [(Demand for an hour x Lead hour) + Safety stock ] / 100
= [(75 x 3) + 300] / 100
= 525 /100
=5.25
Therefore, 5.25 containers are needed
Answer:
a. 9 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass.
d. 8 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass.
Explanation:
Greece and Austria both produce jeans and stained glass. Greece opportunity cost is 5 pairs of jeans per stained glass and Austria opportunity cost 10 pairs jeans per stained glass. Greece has comparative advantage in producing stained glass whereas Austria has comparative advantage in producing Jeans.

If the trade took place at more than 5 pairs of jeans for per pane of stained glass it will be beneficial for both countries. Option a and option d has more than 5 pairs of jeans. Option b has 3 pairs of jeans so the trade is not beneficial for either countries and option c has 1 pair of jeans per pane of stained glass which also a trade not suitable to both countries.

Answer:
D) All of the above are correct.
- a. is an example of a price ceiling.
- b. leads to a larger shortage of apartments in the long run than in the short run.
- c. leads to lower rents and, in the long run, to lower-quality housing.
Explanation:
A price ceiling will always result in economic deficiencies and deadweight loss. The quantity supplied will decrease since the price set is below the equilibrium price, and the quantity demanded will increase due to the same reason. A shortage of products or services results from price ceilings.
The deadweight loss results from the loss of economic efficiency and is represented by the area below the demand curve and above the supply curve, which is left of the equilibrium price. In the long run, the total quantity of units available will lower and the quality of the units will also lower.
