Answer:
Labor Demand and Supply
a) Equilibrium Wages = $25 and Equilibrium employment level = 2
b) $30 cannot be the market clearing wage. At $30 labor supply will outstrip labor demand. In that situation, there is no equilibrium of labor supply and demand.
c) If 5 workers are hired at a wage of $30, the wage bill will be equal to $150 ($30 * 5) and the 5 workers will be receiving an economic rent of $5 each ($30 - 25). The total economic rent is $25 ($5 * 5).
d) If workers earn economic rent, it does not mean that they are being overpaid. It simply means that they are being paid above the equilibrium wage.
e) The total wage will be $1,200($30 * 40). The total economic rent gained by the employed union members is $200 ($5 * 40). The economic rent lost by limitation on union labor cannot be quantified with the given information.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Demand: LD = 100 − 2W
Supply: LS = 2W
Equilibrium wage and employment level exist where Demand = Supply
i.e. LD = LS = 100 - 2W = 2W
Therefore 2W = 100 - 2W
= 4W = 100
= W = 100/4
= W = 25
Equilibrium Wages = $25
Equilibrium employment level = 2
b) Economic rent is the additional or extra income which a resource earns or generates over the normal earnings as a result of being put to use in its present form. This means that the extra income could be lost without jeopardizing the deployment of the resource to some productive use.
Answer:
Marginal cost: $13.70
Missing question:
Additional cost from increasing their output by one unit.
Explanation:
The company will inccur only the variable cost as the fixed cost are within the relevant range:
Direct materials $ 6.85
Direct labor $ 3.60
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.25
Sales commissions $ 1.50
Variable administrative expense $ 0.50
Total variable cost: $13.70
producing an additional unit will genrate marginal cost for $13.70
Answer:
=$246,000
Explanation:
Intended sales 3500 units
Selling price =$60
variable costs 35% of sales price is 35/100 x 60= $21
Contribution margin is 65% of sales price = 65/100 x 60 = $39
Fixed costs =$78,000
Sales revenue to make $81,900 will be
operating income = total contribution margin -Fixed costs
$81,900 = TCM - $78,000
TCM = $81,900 +78,000
TCM= 159,900
TCM is a product of contribution margins and sales units
159,900 =$39 x sales units
sales units = 159,000/ $39
sales units = 4,100
sales revenue = sales units x selling price
=$60 X 4100
=$246,000
