Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The correct option here is C) the number of workers can be varied but not size of factory.

Explanation:

In the short run it would not be possible to shift or vary the size of factory and even if they try doing that it will talk lot of time and cost , which is in no way beneficial for the firm. But what firm can do is vary the number of workers they employ, like if they want to take advantage of economies of scale , they can do that by assigning less tasks to employees and for that they can make changes in the number of employees as per the requirement.

The entry of women into the workforce since the 1960s resulted in: A.A shift outward in the production possibilities curve of th

alekssr [168]

Answer:

A. A shift outward in the production possibilities curve of the United States

Explanation:

The production possibilities curve is the curve that shows the combination of goods the given country is able to produce given the fixed amount of resources. For example, given the fixed amount of resources, if there are 2 products, apples and bananas. Every single point along the curve show the combination of these two. If the country want to produce more apples they have to reduce the numbers of bananas to allocate the resources that originally used for bananas to use for additional apples, since they have fixed amount of resources.

The entry of women into the workforce increase the resource of production due to the more available labors. Thus, the production possibilities curve will shift outward because they can produce more goods without trade off of any products.

Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries,

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

I will use the 2020 tax schedule since recovery rebate credit applies to 2020:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $64,000 + $12,000 + $500 = $76,500

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

contribution to IRA = ($2,500)

alimony payment = ($1,500) the divorce agreement was settled on 2005

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $48,100

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($48,100 - $19,750)] = $5,377

Interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

The amount of taxes that they owe = $5,377 - $3,500 (federal tax withholdings) = $1,877

Refundable tax credits:

$2,000 in child tax credit

$2,900 in recovery rebate credit

total = $4,900

taxes payable or refund = tax liability - refundable tax credits = $1,877 - $4,900 = -$3,023.

Marc and Michelle should get a refund for $3,023
