Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": feels the marginal benefit of an extra hour of studying exceeds the marginal cost of not playing basketball.

Explanation:

In decision-making, an analysis of benefits-costs is essential to select the choice with the greatest return.<em> If the marginal benefit of the choice is greater than the marginal cost, it is reasonable to take that option</em>. If the marginal cost is greater than the marginal benefit, it is convenient to leave that option behind.

Thus, <em>Russell must have considered the marginal benefit of an extra hour studying greater than the marginal cost of not playing basketball.</em> That is the reason why he rather spent an hour with his books than with a basketball.

Answer:

c. feels the marginal benefit of an extra hour of studying exceeds the marginal cost of not playing basketball.

Explanation:

Russel made a choice to study for an hour instead of playing basketball. When making choices people weigh the benefits of an action against its opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost is the forgone alternative when we choose to do something.

In this instance Russell chose to study and the opportunity cost was to enjoy playing a basketball game.

For him to choose to study it means he saw the benefit of reading to be greater than the marginal cost of playing basketball. So he chose the most beneficial activity for him.

Explanation:

We solve for the interest expense on each alternative and pick the lowest:

(1) common note.

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 420,000.00

time 0.25

rate 0.04000

420000 \: (1+ 0.04)^{0.25} = Amount

Amount 424,138.43

Interest expense:   4,138.43‬

(2) Discounted note:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $420,000.00

time  0.25

rate  0.04000

\frac{420000}{(1 + 0.04)^{0.25} } = PV  

PV   415,901.9490

THe borrower recieve this amount and then, return 420,000

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

d. All of the above are correct.

Explanation:

a. This tax causes the demand curve for fountain drinks to shift downward by $0.50 at each quantity.

b. The price paid by buyers is $0.30 per drink more than it was before the tax.

This is true as the difference between $0.50 and $0.20 is $0.30. The price paid by buyers is indeed $0.30 per drink more than it was before the tax.

c. Forty percent of the burden of the tax falls on the sellers.

This is true as $0.20 of $0.50 is 40% and this tax burden falls on the sellers.

Simora [160]

Answer: $40
