Opportunity cost is defined as the loss incurred when one chooses one alternative over another.

In this scenario, the forgone option is full-time work along with other costs associated with that period when opting for schooling instead. Room and board expenses remain constant whether attending school or working full time, thus these are not factored in. Earnings from part-time work during school are deducted as they would have been earned during full-time employment.

Thus;
Opportunity cost = $20,000+$10,000+$1,000-$8,000 = $23,000

Nady [3600]
The total amount in pounds is 19,880. Given the following data: Production equals 470 boxes, with each tile box requiring 44 pounds of clay mix. Starting inventory is 4,700 pounds, and the desired ending inventory is 3,900 pounds. To find the required direct material purchase, we apply this formula: Purchases = Production + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory. The direct material budget (in pounds) is: Production: 470 times 44 equals 20,680; Desired Ending Inventory: 3,900; Beginning Inventory: 4,700. Thus, the total pounds required equal 19,880.

Suppose Nicholas owns a business making Christmas tree ornaments. Currently, he makes 300 ornaments a month. At this level of pr
stepan [3596]

Solution and Explanation:

1. MC = Cost of raw materials + Labor cost

MC = 5 plus (10 divide by 2)

MC = $10

2.  TFC = $300

Q = 300,  AFC = TFC/Q = 300 divide by 300 = $1

3.  Nicholas's optimum output is likely to be greater

Rationale: P = MR = $15, MC = $10

With MR exceeding MC, increasing output is advisable until MR equals MC to maximize profits.

4.  His profit-maximizing output would likely increase

Reason: P = MR = $15, MC = $4 + $5 = $9

Since MR > MC, Nicholas should amplify his output until they are equated at the profit-maximizing point.
