The most obvious benefit of specialization and trade is that they allow us to: <span>Consume more goods than we otherwise would be able to consume
When we do specialization, we could produce the goods that provide competitive advantage for us so we can produce that goods in a huge amount.
After that, we can trade the goods with other goods (which gives competitive advantage to other country) and trading countries could consume goods on a huge amount.</span>
Table/indexed.
Let's look at the three options and see what their advantages and disadvantages are:
Contiguous - In this scheme, the file is stored in contiguous blocks of the disk. It allows for easy random access of the data, but requires a contiguous sequence of blocks large enough to handle the entire file. Since the size of the file specified in this question varies quite a bit over it's lifespan, you're either going to be wasting a lot of space by having an allocation large enough to handle the maximum sized file, or the file will need to be copied whenever it grows and "bumps" into a file that was allocated after it. Because of this, this method is not the best.
Linked - The file is stored as a single, or double linked list of file blocks. This allows for the file to grow or shrink as needed, using only the amount of space needed for the file. Unfortunately, this storage scheme doesn't allow for random access of the file contents and the file can only be accessed sequentially. The question for this problem doesn't specify how the file is being accessed, so as long as random access isn't required, then this would be a reasonable allocation scheme. But I'm assuming that random access will be required, in which case, this scheme isn't ideal.
table/indexed - In this scheme, some disk blocks are used as tables to point to other disk blocks that actually contain the file data. It's almost as fast as contiguous allocation for random access of the file contents, yet allows for the growth and shrinkage of a file like linked allocation. As such, it handles all use cases at a relatively minor cost in total storage required. So this would be the most appropriate allocation scheme since the file access behavior wasn't specified in this question.
Answer:
$135 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of total variance is shown below:-
For computing the total variance first we need to find out the actual price which is below:-
Actual price = Total cost ÷ Actual quantity
= $18,135 ÷ 3,100
= $5.85 pound
Now,
Total variance = Standard quantity × Standard price - Actual quantity × Actual price
= (($2,000 × 1.5) × $6) - 3,100 × $5.85
= 3,000 × $6 - 3,100 × $5.85
= $18,000 - $18135
= $135 Unfavorable.
Answer:
$24,000
Explanation:
Since in the question it is given that the 3% of credit sales is considered to be a bad debt expense
where,
Credit sales is $800,000
And, the estimated percentage is 3%
So by considering this above information, the amount debited to bad debt expense is
= $800,000 × 3%
= $24,000
All the other information i.e to be given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
Answer:
- <u>an airline targeting customers with over 500k miles of travel on its airline</u>
Explanation:
Note, the focus of behavioral segmentation is to identify and separate the marketing strategy used on clients/customers based on mainly their behavior, and not on demography (age, gender, etc) or geography.
Hence, the best scenario from the above options is that of an airline that targets customers with over 500k miles of travel on its airline. In other words, their traveling behavior (distances covered) is the basis why they are targeted, without consideration of demography or their geography.
