You have rented your first apartment, signing a lease that commits you to pay $500 each month for 12 months. You have an opportu

nity to take a trip to Europe during the entire month of June and you will spend $2,000 traveling. Your apartment will be vacant, but because of your lease, you must pay the rent. The cost of taking the trip to Europe is:
a. $2,000, because the $500 for your June rent is a sunk cost
b. $2,500, because this is your total spending during the month of June
c. $1,500, because the June rent is an opportunity cost of traveling that must be deducted from the explicit cost of the trip.
d. $2,500, because the June rent is an opportunity cost of traveling and must be added to the explicit cost of the trip

Answer:

d. $2,500, because the June rent is an opportunity cost of traveling and must be added to the explicit cost of the trip

Explanation:

Total cost for the month of June can be expressed as;

Total cost for June=Cost of rent+Cost of the trip

where;

Cost of rent=$500 per month

Cost of the trip=$2,000

replacing in the expression above;

Total cost=(2,000+500)=$2,500

The total cost for the month of June is $2,500 since the cost of rent is an opportunity cost of travelling and must be added to the explicit cost of the trip

First Simple Bank pays 6.4 percent simple interest on its investment accounts. If First Complex Bank pays interest on its accoun
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

rate set by first complex bank is  = 5.07 %

Explanation:

given data

simple interest = 6.4 %

investment time = 10 year

solution

we consider here first total interest on the amount $100  paid as simple interest is for 10 year will be

interest = $100 × 6.4% × 10

interest = $64

so future value will be = $100 + $64 = $164

so now we consider rate of interest = r

so that now we apply here future value formula

future value = investment × (1+r)^{t}   ...............1

$164 = $100 × (1+r)^{10}  

1.64 =   (1+r)^{10}

solve it we get

r =  0.05071

so rate set by first complex bank is  = 5.07 %

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: a) $18,605

Explanation:

The amount he can borrow today will be an amount that when grown at a rate of 7.5% per year will equal $20,000 in a year.

20,000 = Amount + ( Amount * rate * time)

Many apartment-complex owners are installing water meters for each apartment and billing the occupants according to the amount o
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

<h2>The law of diminishing marginal utility and law of demand explain the decline in water usage by the residents or occupants,in this case.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In Microeconomic Theory,the law of diminishing marginal utility basically states that as a rational consumer or buyer consumes additional or one more unit of any product or service,the incremental or additional utility or satisfaction obtained from that per unit consumption or purchase decreases progressively.
  • Now,law of diminishing marginal utility has a conceptual connection with law of demand,which denotes the inverse or negative relationship between price of any normal good or service and its consumer demand.It implies that as price of any normal good or service increase,its consumer demand decreases and vise versa.
  • Now,observe that according to law of diminishing marginal utility,the additional or incremental consumer utility or satisfaction declines for per unit consumption,which essentially implies that the additional or marginal value of any normal product or service that the consumer is willing to pay decreases as he or she increases the consumption level.
  • Therefore,the willingness to pay for any consumer decreases progressively as he or she increases consumption level.This also explains that to increase the consumption level of any buyer or consumer,the product or service price has to decrease and vise versa.
  • In this case,as the residents use more units of water,the marginal utility or satisfaction obtained by the residents declines increasingly and so does the value they are willing to pay for more water usage.Now,installation of water meters compels the residents to pay for every unit of water they use and since the marginal utility of water drops with each unit of water usage,the price that the residents are willing to pay also drop for each additional unit of water that they use. In other words,the residents don't want to pay more and thus,they restricted their water usage.Therefore,the water usage also declined following the installation of water meter.
