Elden [556K]

Answer:

(a) 3 pounds of shrimp

(b) 5 pounds of shrimp

Explanation:

Opportunity costs refers to the costs or benefits that are foregone to select some other alternative.

Vietnam can produce 180,000 pounds of shrimp or 60,000 pounds of rice in a year:

Opportunity cost of producing one pound of rice = 180,000 ÷ 60,000

= 3 pounds of shrimp

Ecuador can produce 130,000 pounds of shrimp or 26,000 pounds of rice in a year:

Opportunity cost of producing one pound of rice = 130,000 ÷ 26,000

= 5 pounds of shrimp

Therefore,

According to the principle of comparative advantage, the Vietnam has a comparative advantage in producing rice because it has a opportunity cost of producing rice than Ecuador.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

a. $58,000

b. $6,752

c. $9,000

Explanation:

a. The computation of taxable income is shown below:-

Taxable income = Salary - Short term capital loss + Cash Prize - Greater of Standard or itemized deduction for year 2018 (assumed)

= $80,000 - $2,000 + $4,000 - $24,000

= $58,000

b. The computation of tax liability is shown below:-

Tax liability (Surviving spouse) = ($1,940) + ($58,000 - $19,400) × 12%

= $1,940 + $38,600 × 12%

= $1,940 + $4,632

= $6,572

c. The calculation of Charlotte's child and dependent tax credit is given below:-

= ($2,000 × 4) + ($500 × 2)

= $8,000 + $1,000

= $9,000

Henderson Co. has fixed costs of $36,000 and a contribution margin ratio of 24%. If expected sales are $200,000, what is the mar

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

the margin of safety is the percent of sales which the company is above the break even point.

We solve for the break even point:

$\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}$

$\frac{36,000}{0.24} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}$

BEP = 150,000

We solve for the margin of safety:

$ 200,000 - $ 150,000 = $ 50,000

Now we compare against our sales:

$ 50,000 / $ 200,000 = 0.25
