Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
1 Pound T-bone:
Selling price ($7.95 per pound) $ 7.95
Joint costs= $3.80
Profit per pound $ 4.15
Further process:
It costs $0.55 to further process one T-bone steak.
6-ounce filet mignon and one 8-ounce New York cut.
The filet mignon can be sold for $12.00 per pound, and the New York cut can be sold for $8.80 per pound.
A) Filet mignon: $12.00 pound
1 ounce= 16 ounce
0.375= 6 ounce
Price= 0.375*12= $4.5
New York cut= $8.80 a pound
Price= 0.5*8.80= $4.4
Sales= 4.5+4.4= $8.9
Costs= 3.80 + 0.55= 4.35
Profit= $4.55
B) It is more profitable to further process the T-bone stake by $0.40.
Answer:
COFFEE SHOPS would have a larger potential customer base.
NEW SHOE STORE is geared toward individuals with more disposable income.
Explanation:
The logic here is quite simple, households earning $25,000 or more are likely to be customers of the coffee shops. This also includes households earning $55,000 or more. So the consumer base of coffee shops is very large.
On the other hand, only households earning $55,000 or more are likely to be customers of the new shoe store. Since there are fewer households that earn $55,000 or more, their consumer base will be smaller and it should rather focus on people with more disposable income.
Even if 90% of the people earn above $55,000 and only 10% earn between $25,000 - $55,000, the consumer base of coffee shops will always be larger since it includes almost everyone.
Answer:
Option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Explicit costs = $10,000
Here, the implicit cost is the cost of sacrificing money income from job:
= $10 per hour × 8 hours a day × 30 days
= $2,400
Revenues:
= Items produced in a day × Selling price of each × 30 days
= 50 × $10 × 30
= $15,000
Therefore,
Economic profit for the month:
= Revenues - Explicit costs - Implicit cost
= $15,000 - $10,000 - $2,400
= $2,600
Answer: 10%
Explanation:
The Equilibrium real interest rate would be the interest rate that equates the Desired savings to the desired investment for both the National and foreign economy.
Desired national saving + Foreign desired national saving = Desired national investment + Foreign desired national investment
1,200 + 1,000rw + 1,300 + 1,000rw = (1,000 - 500rw) + (1,800 - 500rw)
2,500 + 2,000rw = 2,800 - 1,000rw
2,000rw + 1,000rw = 2,800 - 2,500
3,000rw = 300
rw = 0.1
rw = 10%
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.
