Explanation:
If the price of an input needed for production of good X decreases, the cost of production of good X reduces. It becomes cheaper to produce good X and and as a result the supply of good X would increase.
An increase in tax increases the cost of production and makes production of good X more expensive. As a result, the supply of good X would fall.
technological change that reduces the cost of producing additional units of good X, would make the production of good X less expensive. As a result, the supply of good X would increase

Explanation:
Self-employment Earnings are profits made from carrying on a "trade or business" as a sole proprietor, an independent contractor, or some form of partnership. For a trade or business, to be considered self employment, does not have to be profitable, and it shouldn't be a full time thing but profit must be your motive.
To calculate your self employment income Subtract ordinary and necessary trade or business expenses from the gross income you derived from your trade or business.
Note that, the amount subject to self-employment tax is 92.35% of your net earnings.
Remember you pay income tax on your profits only, not your total income. Subtract your business expenses from your total income. This is the amount you will pay income tax on.
For Karlie
HI taxable Self employment earnings = $85,000
HI Self employment tax = ($85,000 × 0.29)
= $24650
Hence the portion of her earnings subjected to two parts of security tax is #2,46500.
Answer:
Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables
Explanation:
Vegetables Chicken Trade Off Ratio
John 40 10 4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)
George 25 5 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)
John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :
- John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
- George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).
So, John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.
- It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
- Unitary method:- '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .
I think I must first get the marginal cost of the product before i bought if it is worth it to its value, Then i would compute for the marginal benefit to know what would i gain in this product. Lastly I would compare both the marginal cost and marginal percentage if the cost is lower than the benefit then the product is worth it to buy.
