Answer:
This question lacks answers. Here they are:
A) Early adopter
B) Early majority
C) Innovator
D) Late majority
E) Laggard
Answer is B) <em>Early majority </em>
Explanation:
These are the adoption categories. They measure how inclined a customer is to adopting a new product or technology. Each category describes the main aim and goal of the customer when trying the new product.
Naturally, all categories are on the gradual scale:
Innovators -> Early adopter -> Early majority -> Late Majority - > Laggard
with the <em>innovator</em> being the group that is adopting the product immediately after launch, while the <em>laggard</em> is very change-resistant, rarely making choices regarding the adoption of something new.
The thinnest line is probably the difference between <em>early adopters</em> and the <em>early majority</em>. Early adopters are not as fast as innovators when it comes to product adopting and they are often doing it because of coolness or the "wow" factor of the product. Although the time of adoption for the early majority is the same or a little bit longer than early adopters, the key difference is that the early majority puts functionality over coolness when something is new and ready for adoption.
In this example, Ariana want to receive great functionalities for the given money, so she turns to ratings, reviews and recommendations from early adopters and innovators (Eric). Eventually, when it is determined that the product proves its value, the early majority adopts it.

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.
