Lakeside inc. manufactures four lines of remote control boats and uses activity-based costing to calculate product cost. activity cost pools estimated total cost estimated cost driver machining $ 320,000 12,500 machine hours setup 69,000 350 batches quality control 89,000 760 inspections suppose the luxury boat requires 4,450 machine hours, 125 inspections, and 65 batches. using activity proportions, determine the amount of overhead assigned to the luxury product line. (round your intermediate calculations to the nearest whole percentage and your final answer to the nearest whole number.)

How do primary and secondary industries differ

Consider the local telephone company, a natural monopoly. the following graph shows the monthly demand curve for phone services and the company’s marginal revenue (mr), marginal cost (mc), and average total cost (atc) curves. 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 price (dollars per subscription) quantity (thousands of subscriptions) d mr mc atc 8, 60 suppose that the government has decided not to regulate this industry, and the firm is free to maximize profits, without constraints. complete the first row of the following table. pricing mechanism short run long-run decision quantity price profit (subscriptions) (dollars per subscription) profit maximization marginal-cost pricing average-cost pricing suppose that the government forces the monopolist to set the price equal to marginal cost. complete the second row of the previous table. suppose that the government forces the monopolist to set the price equal to average total cost. complete the third row of the previous table. under average-cost pricing, the government will raise the price of output whenever a firm’s costs increase, and lower the price whenever a firm’s costs decrease. over time, under the average-cost pricing policy, what will the local telephone company most likely do

Define the marginal rate of substitution between two goods (x and y). if a consumer’s preferences are given by u(x,y) = x3/4y1/4, compute the consumer’s marginal rate of substitution as a function of x and y. calculate the mrs if the consumer has chosen to consumer 48 units of x and 16 units of y. show your work.
