Answer:
1. FALSE
There can still be gains from trade if one country has an Absolute advantage in the production of all goods because having absolute advantage does not mean that it has comparative advantage. If they did have comparative advantage in all goods then there would be no gain.
2. TRUE
As shown in the explanation above, gains from trade are determined by comparative advantage. If a country has comparative advantage in a good, it can gain from trading for a good it does not have comparative advantage in.
3. FALSE
Trade can and should be mutually beneficial to both countries.
4. TRUE
If both parties agree to a price that lies between their opportunity costs, they can make gains because they would be making more than their opportunity costs.
5. FALSE
The country has opened up to trade which means that the good they export now has a larger market to sell to. This will be beneficial to the people in the exporting industry as they will sell more and thus make more money.

Explain the problems a hotel faces in making the following departments profitable: restaurants, bars, and room service
Answer: A successful strategy is to show guests the restaurants and explain the cuisine before they go to their rooms, which has prompted more guests to dine in the restaurants during their stay...The best way to prevent these occurrances is to have a good control system, which should include people who are paid to use the bar like regular guests, but are really there to check on the bartenders.
Explanation:
Restaurants; hotel guests are not always predictable. Sometimes they will use the hotel restauraunts, and other times they will dine out. A successful strategy is to show guests the restaurants and explain the cuisine before they go to their rooms, which has prompted more guests to dine in the restaurants during their stay.
Bar; Bars is measured by the pour/cost percentage. Post cost is obtained by dividing the cost of depleted inventory by sales over a period of time. Operations with lower pour costs have more sophisticated control systems and a higher-volume catering operation. Some bartenders tend to overpour measures to receive larger tips. The best way to prevent these occurrances is to have a good control system, which should include people who are paid to use the bar like regular guests, but are really there to check on the bartenders.

Lydia receives a $2,000 gift and wants to open a savings account. Which bank interest would be the best for her if the current inflation rate is
3.5%?
O4% interest
O3% interest
O3.9% interest
O4.1% interest
Answer:
O4.1% interest
Explanation:
Inflation erodes the strength of a currency. If the interest rate on offer is below the inflation rate, saving money in a bank will result in a loss.
To gains from a savings account, the real rate of interest must be positive. The real rate will the nominal interest rate( the quoted rate) - the inflation rate. The higher the nominal rate, the better for the customer.
In this case, 4.1 % will be best for the customer. If the inflation rate is 3.5%, an interest rate of 4.1% will give a real interest rate of 0.6%.

The production possibilities model illustrates an inverse relationship between two goods or services because
Answer:
production of different types will compete for limited resources.
Explanation:
The production possibilities model is also known as the Production–possibility frontier. It is the visual model of efficiency and scarcity. It provides the concept of how the economy can change things by using two goods as an example. It determines the trade offs that is associated with the allocation of the resources between the production of the two goods.
The production possibilities curve or model shows the inverse relationship between the two goods and the services as producing different types of products or services will complete for the limited resources available.
An economy has a very limited economic resource and therefore it can produce more number of one good by making only less of some another good.
Jamison Construction has implemented a cost estimation system using regression analysis. The variable cost per hour of labor is $35 and the fixed cost was determined to be $186,000. If Jamison projects it will be working 204,000 hours in 2019, what is the projected total cost
Answer:
$7,326,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what is the projected total cost
Using this formula
Projected total cost=(Projected hours*Variable cost per hour of labor)+Fixed cost
Let plug in the formula
Projected total cost=(204,000 hours*$35)+$186,000
Projected total cost=$7,140,000+$186,000
Projected total cost=$7,326,000
Therefore the projected total cost will be $7,326,000

The 2019 balance sheet of Dyrdek’s Skate Shop, Inc., showed $530,000 in the common stock account and $2.3 million in the additional paid-in surplus account. The 2020 balance sheet showed $570,000 and $2.5 million in the same two accounts, respectively. If the company paid out $320,000 in cash dividends during 2020, what was the cash flow to stockholders for the year?
Answer:
$80,000
Explanation:
[tex]The \ expression \ for \ calculating \ cash \ flow \ to \ stockholders \ is:[/tex]
[tex]Cashflow \ = \ Dividend \ paid \ during \ the \ year \ - \ change \ in \ t he \ value \ of \ common \ stock \ during \ - \ change \ in \ value \ of \ stock \ in \ the \ previous \ year[/tex][tex]Here;[/tex]
[tex]Change \ in \ value \ of \ Common \ stock \ during \ the \ year \ =[/tex] [tex]\ Value \ of \ Common \ stock \ of \ the \ Curren t \ Year - Value\ of \ Common \ stock \ of \ the \ Previous \ Year[/tex]
[tex]Change \ in \ valu e \ of \ Additional \ paid \ in \ surplus \ account \ during \ the \ year =[/tex]
[tex]Value \ of \ Additional \ paid \ in \ surplus \ account \ o f \ the \ Current \ Year \ -[/tex] [tex]\ Value \ of \ Additional \ paid \ in \ surplus \ account \ of \ th e \ Previous \ Year[/tex]
From the information given:
[tex]Dividend \ Payment \ during \ the \ year[/tex] 2020 = $320000
[tex]Value \ of \ stock \ in \ current \ yr[/tex]= i.e. 2020 = $570000
[tex]Value \ of \ stock \ in \ previoius \ yr[/tex] = i.e. 2019 = $530000
Change = $570000 - $530000 = $40,000
[tex]Value \ of \ Ad ditional \ paid-in \ surplus \ acct \ of \ the \ current \ year[/tex] = $2,500,000
[tex]Value \ of \ Ad ditional \ paid-in \ surplus \ acct \ of \ the \ previous \ year[/tex] = $2,300,000
Change = $2,500,000 - $2,300,000 = $ 200000
∴
[tex]By \ using \ the \ above \ information \ in \ the \ formula \ for \ calculating \ the \ cash \ flow \ to[/tex]
[tex]\ stackholder, \ we \ get:[/tex]
= $320000 - $40,000 - $ 200000
= $80,000

Kim is trying to decide whether she can afford a loan she needs in order to go to chiropractic school. Right now Kim is living at home and works in a shoe store, earning a gross income of $1,070 per month. Her employer deduct $210 for taxes from her monthly pay. Kim also pays $128 on several credit card debts each month. The loan she needs for chiropractic school will cost an additional $85 per month. Help Kim make her decision by calculating her debt payments-to-income ratio with and without the college loan. (Remember the 20 percent rule.)
Answer:
Even with the student loan, Kim's debt to income ratio is lower than 20%, so she should get the loan and attend chiropractic school.
Explanation:
debt to income ratio = total debt payments / total gross income
debt to income ratio without student loan = $128 / $1,070 = 11.96%
debt to income ratio with student loan = ($128 + $85) / $1,070 = 19.91%
