Suppose that Scoobania, which has full employment, can obtain 1 unit of capital goods by sacrificing 2 units of consumer goods d
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

An economy named Scoobania is operating on full employment level. The production possibility curve of this economy is such that it can produce 1 unit of capital goods by sacrificing 2 units of consumer goods.

This means that the opportunity cost of one unit of capital goods is 2 units of consumer goods. However, through international trade this economy can obtain 1 unit of capital goods for 1 unit of consumer goods.  

This implies that the economy will be able to consume more of both capital goods as well as consumer goods. This indicates that Scoobania will be able to consume at a point beyond its production possibility curve.

Even though I was willing to pay up to $64 for a used textbook and even though the seller was willing to go as low as $59 in ord
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

This is an example for the regulation of the government having a negative impact on trade.

The celling policy if people trade below that value is uneffective and useless but, if the agent of the market trade above the celling in some transactiosn (this book may be a best.seller or a book which is hard to find in the given moment) the regulation prohibits and no trade is done. No trade implies neither consumper or producer surplus. While the government state the celling acts in well-being and good for the consumer in this case it is proved wrongly. The consumer would pay between 59 and 64 having a surplus and the produced above 59 will also enjoy a surplus from trade.

Healthy Foods Inc. sells 60-pound bags of grapes to the military for $15 a bag. The fixed costs of this operation are $90,000, w
astraxan [27]

Answer:

BEP units:   15,000 60-pounds bags

(B)

14,000 generates     6,000 loss

35,000 generates 120,000 net

(C) operating leverage: 2

(D) financial leverage: 1.63

(E) combined leverage: 3,26

Explanation:

\frac{Contribution \: Margin}{Sales \: Revenue} = Contribution \: Margin \: Ratio

Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin

60 pounds sales price    =   $  15

60 pound cost: 60 x 0.15 =  $   9

Contribution Margin 6

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}

Fixed Cost 90,000

BEP units:   15,000

(B) profit at given level:

sales x margin - fixed cost = net profit

14,000 x 6 - 90,000  =  (6,000)

35,000 x 6 - 90,000 = 120,000

(C) operating leverage: change in EBIT / change in sales

income at 21,000 x 6 - 90,000 = 36,000

EBIT change:

120,000/36,000 = 3 + 1/3

Slaes change:

35,000/21,000 = 1 + 2/3

operating leverage:

(3 + 1/3) / (1 + 2/3) = 2

(d) financial leverage

<u>change in net income: </u>

(120,000 - 17,000) / (36,000 - 17,000)

103,000 / 19,000 = 103/19

<u>change in EBIT</u> 3 + 1/3 (already calculate

(103/19) / (3+1/3) = 1.626315789

(E) combined

2 x 1.626315789 = 3,252631578‬

Find an example of a large project that took more than a year to complete, preferably one near where you live. Describe some of
Anvisha [2.4K]
The starting point in discussing how projects should be properly managed is to first understand what a project is and, just as importantly, what it is not.
People have been undertaking projects since the earliest days of organized human activity. The hunting parties of our prehistoric ancestors were projects, for example; they were temporary undertakings directed at the goal of obtaining meat for the community. Large complex projects have also been with us for a long time. The pyramids and the Great Wall of China were in their day of roughly the same dimensions as the Apollo project to send men to the moon. We use the term “project” frequently in our daily conversations. A husband, for example may tell his wife, “My main project for this weekend is to straighten out the garage.” Going hunting, building pyramids, and fixing faucets all share certain features that make them projects. So the correct answer is: please help :)
