Answer:

barriers to entry in monopoly but not in monopolistic competition.

Explanation:

Imagine a situation where a monopolistically competitive firm is doing very well and is able to earn economic profit (profits higher than normal) in the short run. Since this company is earning higher than normal profits, other companies will enter the market and start competing against them hoping to get a piece of that abnormally high gain. As more competitors enter the market, economic profits will start to decrease until finally they are eliminated.

Since monopolies do not face competition, they can earn economic profits in the long run.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 4.48

Explanation:

Given

<u>Dimension</u>

Length= 8m

Breadth = 6m

Height = 4m

Cost per m^2 = 0.04

Required

Determine the total cost to paint 4 walls

First, we need to calculate the area of the 4 walls.

Area = 2*(Length * Height) + 2 *(Breadth * Height)

Substitute values for Length, Breadth and Height

Area = 2*(8m* 4m) + 2 *(6m* 4m)

Area = 2*(32m^2) + 2 *(24m^2)

Area = 64m^2 + 48m^2

Area = 112m^2

Cost per m^2 = 0.04.

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 112 * 0.04

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 4.48

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Lowa should produce corn; Nebraska should produce Wheat

Explanation:

Two states: Iowa and Nebraska

Same two goods are produced by both of them: Corn and wheat

For lowa,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = 3 bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of wheat

For Nebraska,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = 3 bushels of wheat

According to the concept of comparative advantage, a country is exporting the commodity in which it has a comparative advantage and a country has a comparative advantage in producing a commodity if the opportunity cost of producing that commodity is lower than the other country.

In our case, lowa should producing and exporting corn because the opportunity cost of producing corn is lower than the Nebraska and on the other hand, Nebraska should producing and exporting wheat because the opportunity cost of producing wheat is lower than the lowa.
