If a more efficient technology was discovered by a firm, there would be Multiple Choice a downward shift in the AFC curve. an up
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a) a downward shift in the AFC curve

Explanation:

AFC = Average Fixed Cost, AVC = Average Variable Cost, MC = Marginal Cost

Average Fixed Cost is defined as the fixed cost of production divided by the quantity produced. Mathematically given as:

Average Fixed Cost = Fixed Cost ÷ Quantity

AVC = FC ÷ Q

Average Variable Cost is defined as the variable cost of production divided by the quantity produced. Mathematically given as:

AFC = VC ÷ Q

Marginal Cost is defined as the cost incurred for an additional unit to be produced. Mathematically given as:

MC = ΔC ÷ ΔQ

The firm discovered a more efficient technology implies that the cost of production is reduced. The result of this is that the fixed cost (FC) is reduced and consequently, the AFC is reduced as well. Hence, the AFC curve shifts downward. We therefore see that a reduction in fixed costs (due to the discovery of a more efficient technology) results in the AFC curve shifting downwards

<u>Hence, Option A (a downward shift in the AFC curve) is the correct answer </u>

When applying for jobs, job seekers often focus on a desired salary while ignoring other aspects of the job offer such as benefi
Lena [83]

Answer:

A) anchoring bias

Explanation:

Anchoring bias refers to a common mistake of relying heavily on the first information that we get, or in this case, the first information that we look for.

We all tend to suffer from anchoring bias, that is why it is one of the oldest sales techniques. Everyone has seen an ad that states a before price and a discount price. If the difference between the before price and the after price are significant, then we will consider that it is a bargain. Or a salesperson first shows us an expensive product, and then shows us a similar but lower priced product, we tend to believe the second product is cheap.

When most of us look for a job, of course we focus on the salary, since we want to work to earn money. But only focusing on the salary is seeing only half the picture, although the most important half. Other associated benefits or costs are usually not considered, e.g. a high paying job might also require dressing formally or spending a lot of time travelling.
