OXAGON is an industrial city that will be built in NEOM. One of the factories interested to join there has been producing a dependable product used by farmers, municipalities, and suburbanites alike to coardl grass in fields and gardens. Contributions to NEOM revenue have been minimized by international dumping of generic glyphosate, as announced in mid-2021 due to Pandemic of COVID-19. The factory sales price was decreased from $4,072 to $60,308 per gallon to compete with the highly competitive pricing, and it is expected that the international price will be around $6,968 per gallon. Assume when the price was set at $4,072 per gallon, there was a prediction that in 5 years the price would inflate to $9,853 per gallon. Determine the interest adjusted rate for inflation, if the inflation is 11% and the interest is 3% per year real return is expected by the factory.

Hanna Corporation markets a compact microwave oven. In 2010 they sold 23,000 units at $375 each. Per capita disposable income in 2010 was $6,750. Hanna economists have determined that the arc price elasticity for this microwave oven is −1.2. Which the following statement is wrong? 1. A price decrease in 2011 will help company revenue growth 2. If all other things remain equal, sales volume for 2011 are 27,312 if price is reduced to 325. 3. Assume that arc income elasticity for microwave ovens is 2.5 and price and income effects are independent and additive. Given that the price is reduced to $325, and that per capita disposable income increases to $7,000, sales volume for 2011 will be 29,032. 4. A price increase in 2011 will help company revenue growth.
can you reword this paragraph? Voluntary export restraint (VER) is really a restriction upon on quantity of goods which an exporting nation can export to another country. VER is self-imposed on the exporting country. As for Ghana, this country is importing food, which is an agriculturally inclined country. This means that there is something lacking with the agriculture sector if Ghana is not even able to meet the needs of its citizens’ demand. Voluntary export restraint (VER) is a type of non-tariff barriers to trade. It could be the outcome of requests made by the importing country to provide a measure of protection for its domestic businesses producing competing goods. And this is what the government of Ghana has done. VER also would temporarily increase jobs for domestic workers in the agricultural sector. Protection from VER encourages domestic producers to recruit locally. Security from foreign exchange decreases productivity in the long run. Without competition, it is not…
Domestic demand for fidget spinners in the domestic economy is characterized by the equation P = 100 – 2Q, domestic supply is characterized by the equation Q = P10, and the world price is equal to 60. Then the export subsidy of 10 per unit will lead to a decrease in the world price by 10 increase domestic exports by 10 increase domestic exports by 15 change nothing
The price of bauxite increased to its highest level due to conditions which impacted supply. Historically, bauxite has traded at between 1500 and 1600 USD per tonne. But the price increased to over 1900 USD in November 2020. Growing demand in Canada for bauxite to be turned into aluminium, coupled with a sharp fall in Jamaican production have both been factors in the price increase. Bauxite production in Jamaica for 2017-18 fell 65% year-on-year due to flood conditions causing damages as well as increased competition. The London Metal Exchange predicts that global consumption of bauxite is likely to be greater than production by 20 million tonnes next year. In the US, companies in the steel and petrol industry have put pressure on the US government to relax import controls, warning that otherwise they might run out of bauxite. Commentators predict that most steel and petrol producers will be unaffected because bauxite is such a small part of their spending. Explain, using supply and…
The Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is holding a regular meeting to decide on its production policy. Current data shows that global demand for oil stands at 99.50 million bbl/d and global oil supplies stand at 97.1 million bbl/d including 31 million bbl/d from OPEC. In order to balance the market, which of the following decisions should the organization consider: OPEC should consider cutting its production by 2.4 million bbl/d OPEC should consider increasing its production by 2.4 million bbl/d OPEC should consider keeping its production fixed at 31 million bbl/d OPEC should consider cutting its production by 1.4 million bbl/d
Steel is produced only in the US and the rest of the world (ROW). The inverse demand and supply in the US are p = 110 - Q9 and p = 20 + Qi, while in the ROw, they are p = 70 - Q% and p = QR. All quantities are in millions of tons and all prices are in dollars per ton. Since steel is produced more cheaply in the ROW, the US imports it from the ROW under international trade. At any price, p, the imports of the US, QM, is the excess demand for steel given by the difference between the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied domestically in the US: QM = Q8 - Qi. Similarly, the exports of the ROW, QE, is the excess supply of steel given by the difference between how much they produce and how much they demand: QE = Q2 - Qg.
b) find the price in dollars per pund that will maximize the revenue.

Consider the allocation of a fixed, renewable supply of surface water in a given year between two competing users: municipal and industrial users (M) and agricultural users (A). The demand for water by M-users is MBM = 250 – QM and the marginal extraction cost is MXCM = 50. The demand for water by A-users is MBM = 170 – 0.5*QM and the marginal extraction cost is MXCM = 20. S is the annual supply of surface water is the basin. Assuming that there is no water scarcity in the basing (i.e., S > S’), what is the efficient level of water use for M- and A-users?
