1. a. Under free trade, China's peanuts domestic production will be 100 units (50 + 5 x 10).

b. Under free trade, China's peanuts import will be 200 units (300 - 100).

c. Under free trade, China's peanuts export will be negative 200 units (100 - 300).

d. Free trade ensures that domestic consumption is met because domestic manufacturers will produce 100 units while the remaining 200 units demanded by consumers will be met through imports.

2. a. With a quota limit of 200 units for peanuts import, peanuts production will still be 100 units (50 + 5 x 10).

b. Under the quota limit, China's peanuts import will be 200 units (300 - 100) since internal production is not more than 100 units.

c. Under the quota limit, China's peanuts export will be zero units.

d. The quota limit will still ensure that domestic consumption is met because the quota of 200 units plus 100 units of internal production will meet domestic demand for 300 units.

<h3>What are Free Trade and Quota?</h3>

Free trade implies the absence of any government-imposed limits on imports and exports. On the other hand, quota refers to the trade restriction imposed by governments.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

D = 400 - 10P

S = 50 + 5P

Where:

D = Demand

S = Domestic Supply

P = Price

Price = $10

a. The quantity demanded will be 300 units (400 - 10 x 10).

b. The quantity supplied (domestically) will be 100 units (50 + 5 x 10).

c. The import quantity will be 200 units (300 - 100).

c. Quota imposed on imports of peanuts = 200 units

Thus, <u>there will be no changes</u> in the welfare of consumers and manufacturers under the quota limit compared with free trade because the quota meets domestic demand.

The ___________ planning horizon is shorter than the aggregate production plan's, but must be longer than a firm's production le

klio [65]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Master production schedule.

Explanation:

A Master Production Schedule (MPS) is a detailed plan that outlines what products and in which quantities products should be manufactured over a certain period. This schedule contrasts the Aggregate Production Plan (APP) which has a broader scope in business production not only for a product but for a product family usually in large plants.

<em>MPS planning horizon is shorter than the APP but easier to understand assuming the demand for the product is constant. The MPS lead time to produce a good tends to be longer than the APP.</em>

The cost, in dollars, to produce x designer dog leashes is C ( x ) = 8 x + 3 , and the price-demand function, in dollars per lea

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Profit function is the revenue minus the cost.

Revenue = Price x Quantity = X.px = x(88-2x) = 88x - 2x^2

Therefore the profit function P (x):

P (x) = 88x - 2x^2 - (8x+3)

To maximise profit we use the 1st order condition: dP(x)/dq = 0

Therefore, 80 - 4x = 0

4x = 80

x = 20

So 20 leashes maximises profit.

P(x) = 80(20) - 2(20)^2 - 3

The price to charge would be:

<u><em>The best reason would be that the price is a bit expensive for a leash so most people would not buy it.</em></u>
