More labor and less capital should be required to make the 50 widgets since the marginal product of labor exceeds the marginal product of machinery.

What, using an example, is marginal product?

An excellent illustration of the marginal output of labor is a restaurant kitchen. Without cooks, the restaurant will produce nothing. The restaurant may produce 10 meals more after hiring one cook, resulting in a positive MPL of 10.

What distinguishes a marginal cost from a marginal product?

In terms of economics, marginal cost refers to the entire cost incurred while producing a further unit of a good or service. The additional output produced by one additional unit of input, such as an additional worker, is known as marginal product.

On August 10, a credit card account had a balance of $325. A purchase of $56 was made on August 15, and $157 was charged on August 27. A payment of $79 was made on August 15. The interest on the average daily balance is 1.35% per month. Find the finance charge on the September 10 bill. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The finance charge on the September 10 bill is $5.08.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the sum of total amount owed each day (in bold red color).

From the attached excel file, we have:

Sum of total amount owed each day = $11,675

Average daily balance = Sum of total amount owed each day / Number of days in the billing period = $11,675 / 31 = $376.61

Finance charge = Average daily balance * Interest rate per month = $376.61 * 1.35% = $5.08

Therefore, the finance charge on the September 10 bill is $5.08.

Answers

Answer:

If the U.S. is an open economy real GDP will decrease by more than in a closed economy.

Explanation:

Federal fund rate is the rate of depository fund which banks pay overnight. The rise in fed will cause the banks to pay more interest on the mandated reserve. If the interest rates are increased the real GDP will decrease because there will be reduced investments, less spending and consumption which leads to declined net exports. These all factors lead to decline in the Real GDP of U.S.

Simon lost $7,100 gambling this year on a trip to Las Vegas. In addition, he paid $2,730 to his broker for managing his $273,000 portfolio and $500 to his accountant for preparing his tax return. In addition, Simon incurred $3,390 in transportation costs commuting back and forth from his home to his employer's office, which were not reimbursed. Calculate the amount of these expenses that Simon is able to deduct (assuming he itemizes his deductions).

Answers

Answer:

The Deductible amount = $0

Explanation:

The Deductible amount = $0

Reason -

Gambling losses are deductible to extent of winnings. As there is no winning, loss of $7,100 is not deductible.

Simon paid $2,730 to his broker for managing his portfolio and $500 to his accountant for preparing his tax return.

Both investment fees and tax preparation fees were in the past (before 2018) allowed under miscellaneous itemized deductions to the extent the total miscellaneous itemized deductions exceeded 2 percent of taxpayer's adjusted gross income.

However, in 2018 miscellaneous itemized deductions are no longer available.

Hence for 2018 investment fees and tax preparation fees are not deductible.

Transportation Cost of $3,390 for commuting back and forth from home to employer's office is not deductible.

As per IRS commuting expenses are personal expense.

As such:

Deductible amount = $0

2. Cost of goods manufactured. This is computed as;

= Beginning WIP + Direct materials + Direct labor + Allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

= $10,000 + $63,000 + $39,000 + $43,000 - $22,000

= $133,000

The company now finances its current assets such as inventories and receivables with short-term debt, and it finances its fixed assets such as buildings and equipment with long-term debt.

Answers

Answer:

a. No, the firm needs to take the volatility of short-term rates into account.

Explanation:

Short term interest rates are more volatile than the long term interest rates. If the company chooses to finance its operations solely from short term financing than it will need to incorporate the affect of volatility in the short term interest rates to identify the net returns.

The company will increase its dividend by 20 percent next year and then reduce its dividend growth rate by 5 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 5 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. If the required return on the company’s stock is 12 percent, what will a share of stock sell for today? (4 pts)

Answers

Answer:

$61.29

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what will a share of stock sell for today

First step is to calculate the price in Year 3

P3= $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)(1.05) / (.12 – .05)

P3= $5.020785/0.07

P3=$71.72

Now Let Calculate the price of stock today using the Present Value (PV) of the first three dividends in addition with the Present Value (PV) of the stock price in Year 3:

P0= $3.15(1.20)/(1.12) + $3.15(1.20)(1.15)/1.12^²+ $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)/1.12^³+ $71.72/1.12^³

P0=$3.78/1.12+$4.347/1.2544+$4.7817/1.404928+$71.72/1.404928

P0=$3.375+3.465+3.4035+$51.048

P0= $61.29

Therefore what will a share of stock sell for today is $61.29

Frida makes bread every day and due to demand she is thinking of increasing her bread production. In order to make this decision, she would calculate her marginal costs of bread production (increased number of employees, equipment, etc.) and her marginal benefits (number of loaves sold, price paid, new customers, etc.) and continue to produce where Select the correct answer below:
a. MB b. MB>MC or until they are equal.
c. total benefits equal total costs.
d. the price of bread equals exactly the marginal benefit of each loaf.

Answers

Answer: b. MB > MC or until they are equal.

Explanation:

It is best that Frieda produces bread at the level where Marginal benefits exceeds marginal costs. The difference will keep giving her more profit.

She should keep increasing her production so long as the Marginal benefit exceeds marginal cost but should stop at the level where the Marginal benefit and marginal cost become equal because producing past this point would mean that she would incur a marginal loss on each unit.

Answers

Answer:

Max will have to use his savings and borrow some money to start his business

Explanation:

Max will be able to employ the franchise's offered business plan.A marketing concept that can be used by an organization as a strategy for business expansion is franchising.  Hence option B is correct .

What was Franchise ?

Where applicable, a franchisor grants a franchisee a license to use all or part of its operational methods, intellectual property, business model, brand, and rights to market and sell its branded goods and services. In exchange, the franchisee agrees to pay certain fees and adhere to specific requirements, usually outlined in a franchise agreement.

The word "franchise" is Anglo-French in origin, deriving from the French verb "francer," which means "to be free." Instead than expanding through acquisition, the franchisor's utilization of a franchise system is an alternate corporate growth approach.

Chains of stores controlled by corporations. For the selling and distribution of goods and services, a franchise system business growth plan reduces the franchisor's capital investment and liability risk.

Particularly in the conventional structure where the franchisee is an individual, franchising is rarely an equal partnership.

You and your family visit Orlando for a week. While there, you decide to go to Universal Studios. When you arrive, you notice that each family member can buy a day pass for $115 or a two-day pass for $150. If you want a three-day pass, the price is $170. Suppose your benefit, measured in utility, is equal to $120 in value the first day you go to the park, $50 more if you go a second day, and $15 more for the third day. What ticket, if any, should you buy

Answers

Answer:

the second day ticket

Explanation:

We would purchase the ticket with the highest net benefit

Net benefit = Benefit - cost of ticket

First day

Net benefit = $120 - $115 = $5

Second day

Net benefit = ($120 + $50) - $150 = $20

Third day

Net benefit = ($170 + $15) - $170 = $15

The second day yields the highest net benefit

Romeo and Juliet: List at least THREE key events that happen in Act II of the film QUADRATIC EQUATIONS HELP 1) When Samuel goes to school, he has to walk 480 yards east of his house and then 360 yards south to arrive to his school. How far does he have to walk to get to school from his house? If he decides that he will cut his distance by going across a park directly from his house to school how far will he have to walk? By how much is it shorter to go across the park then going around the park?In your picture, you should have the house, the school, the path from the house to school around the park and path from the house to school across the park. Label the path around the park with their values. Label the path across the park with a variable. The path across the park and the path around the park form a right triangle with the right angle between the two parts of the path around the park. Label the right angle. Since the paths form a right triangle, you can use Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from the house to school across the park. The general Pythagorean formula is a2 + b2 = c2 where a and b represent the legs and c represents the hypotenuse.Once you find the distance, find out the total distance Samuel has to travel around the park. Then you will be able to find out by how much farther it to go around the park.2) A 100 feet tower needs an anchor line.
