Answer:

A. Canada has a comparative advantage in the production of hockey sticks.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For Canada

The Opportunity cost of Hockey is

= 10000 ÷ 100000

= 0.1 gallons of maple syrup

For Germany

The Opportunity cost of Hockey is

= 10000 ÷ 90000

= 0.11 gallons of maple syrup

So based on this, the option A is correct

And, the same is to be considered

Therefore all the other options would be wrong

Describes how a monopoly controls an industry
stira [4]

Answer:

Key ideas:

  • A single entity controls the flow of the product.
  • Possesses the power to limit prices.
  • Will have some influence in politics.
  • Difficult for new companies to enter the market.

Explanation:

Monopoly refers to the state when there is only one company controlling the flow of products, therefore controlling the prices of it. There are a lot of examples of monopoly in the contemporary era such as AB Inbev, but it doesn't mean that it is totally a modern concept. Monopoly existed even in history take for example the case of Carnegie steel mills or the issue of railroads.

When one company possess such power that it can control the price, it can badly damages the interest of other investors and consumers. But the reason they create a monopoly is that they have heavy influence in politics. That is how they turn up the decisions to their own benefits. And monopolies always try to create hurdles for new investors to get in the market. Because they are charging whatever they want due to no competition, as soon as new competition arrive it will challenge the monopoly which it can't take.

Suppose that the demand and price for a wrist watch are related by the following equation:
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

a. $28

b. $19

c. 800 watches

Explanation:

The equation is

p = D(q) = 28 - 2.25

The equation of the demand would be

P = 28 - 2.25q

a. The price would be

= $28 - 2.25 × 0

= $28 - 0

= $28

b. The price would be

= $28 - 2.25 × 4

= $28 - 9

= $19

The quantity demanded is come in hundreds so we take only 4

c. The quantity woul dbe

$10 = $28 - 2.25q

$10 - $28 = -$2.25q

-$18 = -$2.25q

So q would be

= 800 watches

Tanya [424]

The journal entry to record the receipt of inventory purchased for cash in a perpetual inventory system would be (D)

Jan. 1    Inventory                    1,500

                     Cash                                              1,500

<h3>What are journal entries?</h3>
  • A journal entry is an act of keeping or producing records of any economic or non-economic transaction.
  • An accounting journal, which shows a company's debit and credit balances, records transactions.
  • The journal entry can be made up of multiple records, each of which is either a debit or a credit.
  • Otherwise, the journal entry is termed unbalanced if the sum of the debits does not equal the total of the credits.

Inventory purchase journal entry:

  • Say you purchase $1,000 worth of inventory on credit.
  • Debit your Inventory account $1,000 to increase it.
  • Then, credit your Accounts Payable account to show that you owe $1,000.
  • Because your Cash account is also an asset, the credit decreases the account.

Therefore, the journal entry to record the receipt of inventory purchased for cash in a perpetual inventory system would be (D)

Jan. 1    Inventory                    1,500

                     Cash                                              1,500
