Suppose that a couple of months after the new pizza restaurant opens, the local government institutes a $14 per pizza price ceil

ing. If you buy a $14 pizza from Pizzazzy a week later (and assuming Pizzazzy is behaving rationally), what do you know about the marginal cost, average total cost, and average variable cost at the profit maximizing point of production after the price ceiling is imposed?

The information about the marginal cost, average total cost, and average variable cost at the profit-maximizing point of production when a price ceiling has been imposed will be:

  • Not higher than $10.
  • Higher than $14.
  • Higher than $10.

From the complete question, it should be noted that under perfect competition, in order to maximize profit, the price will be equal to the marginal cost. Based on the information given, the marginal cost won't be more than $10 due to the fact the ceiling price is at this price. Therefore, the <em><u>marginal cost</u></em><em> won't be more than $10.</em>

A firm in perfect competition will earn economic profit in the long run when the profit becomes zero. Therefore, the average total cost must be higher than $14.

Finally, the average variable cost won't be more than $10. This is because the price can't fall below the equilibrium price in order to maximize profit in perfect competition.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

both taxes would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers

Explanation:

Here are the options:

 a. both taxes would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers. b. the macaroni tax would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers, and the burden of the cigarette tax would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers c. the macaroni tax would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers, and the burden of the cigarette tax would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers O d. both taxes would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers.

Tax is a compulsory sum levied on goods and services. Taxes increases the price of goods and services

Supply is elastic if a small change in price leads to a greater change in the quantity supplied.

Demand is inelastic if there's little or no change in demand when price is increased.

More burden of tax should fall on the consumers because their demand is inelastic. So, if prices rise as a result of the tax, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded.

But in the case of suppliers, they are sensitive to price and a rise in price would cause quantity supplied to fall and revenue would fall.

Fiscal Policy

Based on the economic data given, and the fact that the government is running a deficit, the equilibrium GDP will be 336.67.

If government spending is cut to balance the budget, the new level of GDP will be 321.67.

The effect of balancing the budget will be a decrease in GDP and a slower recovery from the recesssion.

<h3>What is the equilibrium GDP?</h3>

This is given by the variable "Y" so we can find the equilibrium GDP by solving for it:
C = 50 + .7(Y – T)

Y = C + I + G - XN

C = Y - I - G + XN

Solving gives:

Y - I - G + XN =  50 + .7(Y – T)

Y - 40 - 35 + 10 = 50 + 0.7Y - 14

Y - 0.7Y = 50 + 40 + 35 - 10 - 14

0.3Y = 101

Y = 101/0.3

= 336.67

<h3>What is the new GDP if government spending is cut?</h3>

Government spending will have to be cut to a size that would make it equal to taxes so government spending becomes 20.

New GDP becomes:

= C + I + G - XN

= ( 50 + .7(Y – T)) + 40 + 20 - 10

= 271.67 + 40 + 20 - 10

= 321.67

A machine cell uses 195 pounds of a certain material each day. Material is transported in vats that hold 25 pounds each. Cycle t
Anna [14]

Answer:

Number of vats used is 3

Explanation:

Number of pounds used per hour, D = 195 ÷ 8

= 24.375 pounds per hour

Cycle time, T = 2.25

Inefficiency factor, e = 0.19

Material held in vats, C = 25 pounds

Now,

Let, n be total number of vats

Thus,

n = \frac{DT(1+e)}{C}

on substituting the respective values, we get

n =\frac{25.75\times2.25\times(1+0.10)}{25}

or

n = 2.413 ≈ 3

Number of vats used is 3  [since vats cannot be in fraction]
