Answer:

Higher unemployment, lower wage share of output, and higher Gini coefficient in the long run.

Explanation:

Since less labor will be used, total unemployment will increase. Besides less labor being used, more capital will be used, so the share of labor in total output will decrease. Labor efficiency increases, since you need less labor to produce the same or even a larger amount of output.

New technologies tend to increase the wages of high skilled labor and management. Since the Gini coefficient measures income inequality, then higher wages for a few will increase inequality.  

This is an example of what is happening in the US, where highly trained labor is getting paid better every time while unskilled labor is getting paid the same as many years ago or their wage has even decreased with time. This shows how important a college education is, and the difference will only keep increasing.

Consumer protection laws might result in:
motikmotik

I believe the answer is: A. Fewer unwanted telemarketing calls

The consumer protect laws allow the consumers to report business practices that violate their privacy or comfort (which is what many of them consider unwanted telemarketing calls are). The protection law could also prevent the price from goes too high, but it would not necessarily lower the average prices.

Economic theory and the data in the table show that the average total cost curve and the marginal cost curve are related in that the MC curve passes through the minimum point of the ATC curve.

<h3>What is the relationship between the MC and ATC curves?</h3><h3 />

The data given by the table (which is accurately filled up) shows that the MC curve will intersect the ATC curve at its lowest point.

We see this from the fact that before the lowest ATC of 0.107, the marginal cost was less than the ATC. After the lowest ATC however, the marginal cost becomes higher than the ATC.

This shows that the MC curve intersected the ATC at its lowest point of 0.107 and then kept rising above it.

Baden Company has gathered the following information. Units in beginning work in process 0 Units started into production 37,700
Flura [38]

Answer:

The materials equivalent units is 37,700

Conversion costs equivalent units is 32,480

Explanation:

The equivalent units of production for materials can be computed thus:

Description                   quantity           % of completion    Equivalent units

Completed units            29000              100                          29000

(37700-8700)

Ending inventory            8700                100                      <u>    8700</u>

total equivalent units for materials                                      37700

The equivalent units of production for conversion costs can be computed thus:

Description                   quantity           % of completion    Equivalent units

Completed units            29000              100                          29000

(37700-8700)

Ending inventory            8700                40                      <u>    3480 </u>

total equivalent units for conversion costs                       32480

I applied 100% percentage of completion to ending inventory when determining materials equivalent units and 40% percentage completion when determining equivalent units for conversion cots  as it given in the question
