Answer:

The lower economic cost will be going to neighboring city as the difference in price make it worth lossing those working hours.

Explanation:

As all placed will add the same half hour for shopping we should ignore and calculate based in the difference in the price of the suit and distance travel

We should add up the opportunity cost of the labor wage lost to go destination and go back.

Local department 103 dollars + 15 minutes x 2 ( back and forth) x $16 per hour = 103 + 8 = $ 111

Across town 88 dollars + 30 min x 2 x $16 per hour

88 + 16 =   $ 104

Neighboring city $63 + 1 hours x 2 x $16 per hour

$63 + $32 = $95

<u><em>The lower economic cost </em></u>will be going to neighboring city as the difference in price make it worth lossing those working hours.

xenn [34]

Answer:

A) 964,286

B) 14

C) 750,000

Explanation:

The portfolios expected return = (0.5 x $70,000) + (0.5 x $200,000) = $35,000 + $100,000 = $135,000

If the risk free investment yields 6% per year, and you require a risk premium of 8%, then the total interest rate that the portfolio yields must be 6% + 8% = 14%

you will be willing to pay: $135,000 / 14% = $964,286 for the portfolio

if the risk premium increase by 4%, then the price of the portfolio will decrease to: $135,000 / 18% = $750,000

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

$200

Explanation:

GDP refers to the total value of all goods and services produced in a country in a period. Economists consider all products regardless of who manufactured them. Only finished consumer goods and services are counted to avoid double counting.

In the scenario, only the fruits and vegetables will add to the US GDP. They are finished consumer goods produced within the borders of the US. If they were capital goods, they would not be included in GDP calculations. The $100 spent on MP3 will not count because the item was not produced in the US. It is an import. Its value will be adjusted against exports when calculating GDP.

SashulF [63]

Language that outlines acceptable and unacceptable use of it resources and defines sanctions to be applied if a violation occurs is typically found in an employee code of conduct. Typically, when a person gets hired on at a new job, the new job will give them an employee code of conduct book that states what is and isn't allowed. The code will state what an employee does that will be deemed acceptable and what they can do to make sure they stay in the outlined rules.
