- In the United States, where Internet services are cheap, the ratio of capital to labor used is higher than that of capital used in accounting services. But in other coun- tries, where Internet services are expensive and labor is cheap, it is common to use less capital and more labor than in the United States. Can we still say that Internet services are capital intensive compared to accounting services? Why or why not?In 1 hour, john can make 4 sandwiches or 9 salads. Jane works with John and in one hour she can make 7 sandwiches or 10 salads. Knowing the each work 8 hours per day, if they both allocate 4 hours to each activity, then in total how many salads can be made?What is sweetens opportunity cost of manufacturing 1 million cars per year?

September 24, 2011), Mark Bittman compares the cost of a McDonalds meal for four ($28) to the cost of a home cooked chicken with vegetables dinner ($13.78). An economist would say that the "true" cost of the home cooked meal is than $13.78, as we need to add to the cost of groceries (money you pay to buy the ingredients chicken and vegetables) also the lower, amount of money you will be saving when you spend less money on food. lower, negative health effects of eating too much fast food lower, opportunity cost of time you spend to prepare and cook your dinner. higher, benefits of healthy home. cooking, higher, opportunity cost of time you spend to prepare and cook your dinner.In the graph above, the opportunity cost of producing one more robot is A. 1 corn.

A) EL|$ *(25 $) B) E$|L*(25 $) Group of answer choices B AIs this a good example of opportunity cost? “In 2019, I started my small business by selling prints of my photographs. Now it’s temporarily closed. During this time I had the option of shipping my prints through USPS or UPS. I decided to ship my prints through USPS instead of UPS since it was a bit expensive at the time. My prints that were shipped out from USPS arrived in time and came in good condition. The opportunity cost is the cost of UPS shipping and being able to ship out international orders. “In economics, the cost of production is defined as the expenditures incurred to obtain the factors of production such as labor, land, and capital that are needed in the production process of a product. Explain the following in relation the total cost in economics i. A firm pays its accountant an annual allowance of $10,000. Is this an economic cost? Explain. ii.

- A small company that shovels sidewalks and driveways has 100 homes signed up for its services this winter. It can use various combinations of capital and labor: intensive labor with hand shovels, less labor with snow blowers, and still less labor with a pickup truck that has a snowplow on front. To summarize, the method Choices are: Method 1: 50 units of labor, 10 units of capital Method 2: 20 units of labor, 40 units of capital Method 3: 10 units of labor, 70 units of capital If hiring labor for the winter costs $100/unit and a unit of capital costs 400, what is the best production method? What method should the company use if the cost of labor rises to $20/unit?From production function how can we get cheapest way of producing 600 units of outputThe bar graph shows the average cost of tuition and fees at private four-year colleges in the United States. The formula, T = 21x2 + 862x + 15.552, models the average cost of tuition and fees, T, at private U.S. colleges for the school year ending x years after 2000. Solve, a. Use the formula to find the average cost of tuition and fees at private U.S. colleges for the school year ending in 2014. b. By how much does the formula underestimate or overestimate the actual cost shown by the graph for the school year ending in 2014? And, c. Use the formula to project the average cost of tuition and fees at private U.S. colleges for the school year ending in 2020.
