A ________ has reduced or eliminated internal tariffs and adds a common external tariff on products imported from countries outside the group.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Customs union.

Explanation:

Economic integration can be defined as a strategic trade arrangement between countries to eliminate or mitigate trade barriers, as well as coordinate fiscal and monetary policy among its members.

Trade can be defined as a process which typically involves the buying and selling of goods and services between a producer and the customers (consumers) at a specific period of time. There are different types of market or trade bloc used in economic integration and these includes;

I. Political union.

II. Free trade area.

III. Common market.

IV. Economic union.

VI. Customs union.

A customs union can be defined as an agreement between a group of states (two or more neighboring countries) to minimize or eliminate customs duty, remove trade barriers and adopt a common external tariff on imported goods outside the union.

Hence, a customs union is established to reduce or eliminate internal tariffs while adding a common external tariff on products imported from countries outside the group in order to allow free trade among themselves.

Using account analysis, how much is estimated variable cost per carpet?
a. $59.50
b. $52.12
c. $47.00
d. $38.43

= Cleaning supplies + Hourly wages  + Transportation

= 5,140 + 11,000 + 3,600

= $19,740

The variable cost per carpet is:

= Total variable cost / Number of carpets dyed

= 19,740 / 420

Answers

Answer:

Total budgeted purchases = $65,826

Explanation:

Budgeted purchases

Sales forecast = 6,100 units

Ending inventory 1,100 * 110% = 1,210 units

- Beginning inventory = 1,100 units

Units to be purchased = 6,210

Cost per unit = $10.60

Total budgeted purchases = $65,826

In 4-6 sentences, discuss how understanding the concept of price elasticity of demand is useful for a business owner/firm operating in any market structure. Copying the definition or restating the definition of elasticity will result in loss of points. (What does price elasticity of demand tell the firm in terms

Answers

Answer:

The concept of price elasticity is important to a firm because it would help a firm determine how to change prices in order to increase total revenue

For example, if a firm has an elastic demand, if price is increased, the quantity demanded would fall. The fall in demand would be greater than the increase in price. As a result, total revenue would fall. If price is reduced, the quantity demanded would increase.. the increase in demand would be greater than the reduction in price. Total revenue would increase

If on the other hand, demand is inelastic, if price is increased, total revenue increases. If price is reduced, total revenue reduces

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.  

Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases  

Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.

If the State of California raised the average state consumer sales tax rate from 9.25 percent to 15 percent, then this sales tax will have its heavist impact on and raise the marginal cost curves for California businesses.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

Consumer sales tax is not charged to businesses but rather to the customers through a business. The tax would therefore increase the prices of goods and services for consumers and not the businesses.

The businesses would therefore not see their marginal cost curves increase. They could still be affected however, by Californians demanding less goods and services because it is now more expensive for them on account of the new sales tax.

Which statement does not describe a difference between government and household budgets? In the short term, economists would expect the budget deficits and surpluses to fluctuate up and down with the economy and the automatic stabilizers. Most economists view the proposals for a perpetually balanced budget with bemusement. Most economists agree with the proposals for a perpetually balanced budget. Economic recessions should automatically lead to larger budget deficits or smaller budget surpluses, while economic booms lead to smaller deficits or larger surpluses.

Answers

Answer:

Most economists view the proposals for a perpetually balanced budget with bemusement

Explanation:

A balanced budget is a budget where at the end of every year, revenue must equal expenditure. this type of budget can magnify the business cycle. This types of budget contrasts with a cyclically balanced budget

A Cyclically balanced budget is when in a recession, the government makes use of expansionary fiscal policy and in a boom, the government makes use of a contractionary fiscal policy to stabilise the economy. So, in a recession, deficits would be higher and in an expansion, surplus would be higher.

Government sector deficit occurs when government spending exceeds income of the government.

When deficit increases, debt increases. This is because a deficit would need to be funded by additional borrowing

When there is a surplus, government spending is less than the income of the government.

Explanation:

Direct Labor = $34,000

Manufacturing Overhead Cost = $21,600

Conversion Cost = $55,600

So, the conversion costs during the month totaled $55,600.

of $3.00 per unit. The variable cost to manufacture is $2.00 per unit. The monthly fixed costs are $8000. Its current sales are 29,000 units per month. If the company wants to increase its operating income by 20%, how many additional units must it sell

Answers

Answer: 33,200 units

Explanation:

Current operating income = Sales - Variable costs - fixed costs

= (29,000 * 3) - (29,000 * 2) - 8,000

= $21,000

An increase of 20% would be:

= 21,000 * 1.20

= $25,200

The number of units that must be sold is:

= (Fixed costs + Required profit) / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 3 - 2

= $1

Number of units to be sold is:

= (8,000 + 25,200) / 1

= 33,200 units

The rate at which revenue was generated​ (in millions of dollars per​ year) for a certain company for the years 2010 through 2016 can be approximated by ​f(t)=348e0.22t ​(10≤t≤​16), where t=10 corresponds to the start of the year 2010. Find and interpret ∫1016f(t)dt.

Answers

The revenue of a company represents the income generated by the company within a time frame. The total revenue generated by the company from the start of 2010 to the start of 2016 is $39.16 billion

Given that:

[tex]f(t) = 348e^{0.22t}[/tex]  [tex]10 \le t \le 16[/tex]

First, we calculate the integral

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \int\limits^{16}_{10} {348e^{0.22t}} \, dt[/tex]

Remove the constant

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 348\int\limits^{16}_{10} {e^{0.22t}} \, dt[/tex]

Now, integrate

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 348 \times \frac{1}{0.22} (e^{0.22t})|\limits^{16}_{10}[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{0.22t})|\limits^{16}_{10}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{0.22\times 16} -e^{0.22\times 10} )[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{3.52} -e^{2.2} )[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} \times 24.759[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 39164.2[/tex]

From the question

[tex]t = 10[/tex] represents the start of 2010.

This means that

[tex]t = 16[/tex] represents the start of 2016.

So, the interpretation is:

The total revenue from the start of 2010 to the start of 2016 is $39.16 billion
