Answer:

C. Pamela should reject the order, at a loss of € 2,375

Explanation:

The average cost of production is 5 euros per ounce. This implies that the production cost of 1500 ounces is: 1,500 * 5 = € 7,500. Apart from that, € 500  would have to be paid for the design of the labels and € 0.25 euros for making them and applying them (0.25 * 1,500 = 375 euros).

If we consider all these amounts we have:

Average cost of production: € 7,500

Cost of designing labels: € 500

Cost of making and applying labels: € 375

TOTAL COSTS = € 8,325

If Pamela decided to sell 1,500 ounces at € 6,000 she would lose: €8,325 -€6,000 = €2,325

Then, she shoud reject the offer.

Suppose that coffee growers sell 200 million pounds of coffee beans at $2 per pound in 2015 and 240 million pounds for $3 per po
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: C) the demand for coffee beans has increased

Explanation:

The law of supply states that: "all things being equal" the higher the price the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price, the lower the quantity supplied.

Coffee growers sold just 200 million pounds of coffee when the price was $2 per pound but they increased their supply of coffee to 240 million pounds when the price per pound is $3.

This is an evidence to show that suppliers supply more products when price increase in order for them to make more profits.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

both

  • United Continental with a capital expenditure of 60.68%
  • Southwest Airlines with a capital expenditure of 51.38%

Explanation:

Since United Continental's purchases of Boeing planes represent over 60% of their capital expenditures, this means that Boeing had to be the primary plane supplier. Even if the company purchased planes form other manufacturer, their purchases would not even be 40% of the company's purchases.

The same applies to Southwest Airlines, even though the purchases from Boeing are a little lower, they are still over 51%. This means the company could not have spent more money on purchasing planes from another company. The maximum purchase from another airplane manufacturer would have been less than 49% at most.

Besides the previous analysis, you must also consider that the company spends money on things besides airplanes, e.g. new training facilities, equipment, computer software, other vehicles, etc.

Please decide whether each of the follow scenarios related to the loanable funds market will result in a shift in supply or a sh
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

1. When China decides to reduce its capital investment in the US, US's capital inflows, which are a source of loanable funds in the US, take a hit. This leads to a reduction in supply of loanable funds in the US, shifting the supply curve leftward.  

2. When a ban is imposed on fast food restaurants, the amount loanable funds demanded by the fast food industry reduces, leading to a leftward shift m the demand curve of loanable funds.  

3. When fast food restaurants are allowed to open franchised locations, the amount loanable funds demanded by the fast food industry increases, leading to a rightward shift m the demand curve of loanable funds.  

4. When the US government reduces its deficit, it reduces its borrowings. A reduction in borrowing by the US government leads to a reduction in the demand for loanable funds, and therefore shifts the demand curve fur loanable funds leftward.  

5. When individual start to spend more owing to the wealth effect, savings reduce, leading to a fall in the supply of loanable funds. Due to this, there occurs a leftward shift in the supply calve for loanable funds.

oee [108]

p = $2.12 per lb

(b) q = lb (c)

q = $23320

p=750000/q^1.5=>

p'=-1125000q^(-2.5)<0 always

increasing of q. So q should take

the allowable least value=5000.
