Answer:
- a. 2/3 gallon
- b. 5/7 gallon
Explanation:
1. Megan takes 3 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 2 hours to make a pizza.
If she makes a pizza therefore, that is 2 hours that could have been used to make a gallon of root beer. However, it takes 3 hours to make a complete gallon so in those 2 hours only;
= 2/3 gallons would have been made
2. Susan takes 7 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 5 hours to make a pizza.
Like Megan above, the 5 hours that would be used for Pizza would have gone towards making a gallon of beer. If it takes 7 hours to make a gallon then those 5 hours would have made;
= 5/7 gallons of root beer.
3. Absolute Advantage: Megan
The person with the absolute advantage is the person that can produce more goods with the same amount of costs. Megan can make more pizza in a smaller amount of time than Susan so she has Absolute advantage.

The person with a Comparative advantage is the one that has the lowest opportunity cost when producing a good. Megan again has a lower opportunity cost with an opportunity cost of 2/3 gallons.
Answer:
The depreciation deduction for the year is $583.33
Explanation:
Depreciable basis = $7,000
Number of years = 7 years
Depreciation per year = $7,000 / 7 years
Depreciation per year = $1,000 per year
Assuming year end is December 31, 2019
Number of month passed in 2019 = December 31, 2019 - June 1, 2019 = 7 months
Depreciation for the year 2019 = $1,000 x ( 7 / 12 ) = $583.33
So the depreciation deduction for the year is $583.33

When: Automatic Stabilizers:
Incomes are high <span>tax liabilities rise and eligibility for government benefits falls
Incomes are low </span><span>tax liabilities drop and more families become eligible for government transfer programs (food stamps, unemployment insurance)</span>
