In economics, the phrase "There is no such thing as a free lunch" means what?

Business
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C) .There are always resources that must be given up to produce and consume the lunch.

Explanation:

The phrase means that in economics, there is nothing that is genuinely free. Every decision has a cost implication that has to be meant by somebody.  In the example of a free lunch,  there is still a cost to be met. Even if a client is not charged for the food, the restaurant owner has to pay for labor and the materials used to prepare the lunch.

The phrase implies that all economic decisions have a cost behind them. Anyone offering anything for free must have a plan of recovering their costs.

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

depreciation expense 5,800   debit

      acc dep - building              4,320  credit

      acc dep - equipment          1,480  credit

<u>Missing information</u>

GRECO RESORT TRIAL BALANCE AUGUST 31, 2014

Buildings 120,000 Equipment 16,000

Explanation:

First, calcualte the depreciable amount:

cost less salvage value:

120,000 - 10% = 120,000 * (1 - 0.1) = 108,000

Now we multiply this by the depreciation rate which represent 1/useful life

108,000 x 4% = 108,000 x 0.04 = 4,320

We do the same with the equipment

16,000* (1 - 0.1) = 14,800 amount subject to depreciation

14,800 * 10% = 14,800 x 0.1 = 1,480

he adjusting entry will debit the depreciation expense and increase the accumulated depreciation of eahc asset

"Clauss Company transfers out 14,000 units and has 2,000 units of ending work in process that are 25% complete. Materials are en
diamong [38]

Answer:

a. $112,000

b.    $7,500

Explanation:

(a) transferred out

Units transferred out are 100% complete for both materials and conversion costs, thus multiply the Total Cost per Equivalent units with the number of units transferred.

Cost of units transferred out = $8 × 14,000 units

                                               = $112,000

(b) in ending work in process

Units of ending work in process are 100% complete in terms of materials ( since materials are entered at the beginning of the process) whilst 25% complete in terms on conversion cost (applied uniformly during production).

Cost of ending work in process

Materials ($3 × 2,000 units)                  = $6,000

Conversion ($3 × (2,000 units × 25%)) =  $1,500

Total Cost                                               = $7,500
