Answer:
d. Jason has both a comparative and an absolute advantage in washing a dog.
Explanation:
Comparative advantage in economics is the ability of an individual or country to produce a specific good or service at a lower opportunity cost better than another individual or country.
The comparative advantage gives a country a stronger sales margin than their competitors as they are able to sell their specific products or render their peculiar services at a lower opportunity cost.
In 1817, David Ricardo who is an english political economist talked about the law of comparative advantage in his book “On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation."
Also, the principle of comparative advantage asserts that countries can become better off by specializing in what they do best.
This simply means that, any country applying the principle of comparative advantage, would enjoy an increase in output and consequently, a boost in their Gross Domestic Products (GDP).
An absolute advantage can be defined as the ability of an individual such as a producer to produce a good or provide a service in larger (greater) quantity for the same amount of money or the same quantity at a lesser cost or time. Thus, it's the superior capability of an individual over another using the same resources.
Hence, the statement which is true is that, Jason has both a comparative and an absolute advantage in washing a dog because he washes it in 10 minutes while it would take Megan 15 minutes.
When modeling fisheries: (You may choose one or more answers, you may also want to consult your book concerning fixed quota and fixed effort) Group of answer choices Fixed quota models are risky because slight miscalculations can result in fish population extinction Fixed quota models result in multiple maximum sustainable yield population levels Fixed effort harvesting reduces the risk of population extinction Fixed effort models result in an inability to harvest at maximum sustainable yield

Can someone tell me why wealth gaps are common in countries with capitalism?
A strict definition of capitalism is a society where capital is privately owned, and workers paid wages by private firms. Essentially it is a society with minimal government intervention and resources are distributed according to the outcome of free markets.
Essential (fair) inequalities:
Profit motive: A basic principle of capitalism is that individuals are motivated by the profit incentive. For example, entrepreneurs undertake a risky venture to set up firms because they hope to make a substantial profit. If there was not this profit incentive, entrepreneurs would not undertake the risk of setting up a firm. Therefore, you can say the potential of reward makes inequality an essential ingredient of capitalism.
You could argue people may have other motivations for setting up a business than just higher incomes, but most would agree higher income is an important consideration – if not overriding motive.
Work Incentive: Inequality is also important to motivate workers. If every worker received the same wage regardless of skill and effort, there would be no incentive to learn new skills and work hard at the job. A firm in a capitalist society can pay successful workers a higher wage to reflect their higher productivity. This will lead to wage inequality, but without it it would be hard to motivate workers.
Not necessary (unfair) inequalities:
Monopoly Power: The above types of inequality may seem ‘fair’ or justified. If you work hard, you get to benefit from your enterprise. However, capitalism can also lead to inequality which may be seen as unfair. For example, a firm may develop monopoly power. Then it is in a position to charge consumers artificially high prices and deter entry. If firms have monopsony power, they can get away with paying a wage much lower than the productivity of the worker. Workers have no choice but to work for a very low wage. Therefore, capitalists with access to private property can ‘exploit’ their monopoly power to make a much higher profit than other people in society.
Inheritance: Another aspect of capitalism is that private property can be passed on from one generation to another. Therefore those who inherit capital can enjoy high income even without any effort. They have access to best private education and jobs. This creates inequality of opportunity as well as inequality of opportunity.
These types of inequality mean that there isn’t a level playing field; some in society get an unfair advantage, there isn’t equality of opportunity.
Note: I have written this answer because this is what they teach us in economics. But I am a strong supporter of capitalism.
Steven watched the island get bigger as they approached. Now he could see buildings and roads. He saw that they were approaching a small island beside it that had an airport. He twisted in his seat, anxious for the plane to land and his family's vacation to begin in the Galapagos Islands.
Steven's parents were both scientists who were researching the endangered pink fairy armadillo, a species found in Argentina. Steven, his brother, Nick, and his parents had just spent a month living in a tent on the outskirts of the rain forest in Argentina. Because the family traveled so much, Steven and his brother attended school online. Doing homework in the humid rain forest with bugs bigger than hamburger buns flying around and an internet connection that kept cutting out was not Steven or Nick's idea of a good time. They pressed on since they knew how important it was to stay in school, especially if they wanted to be scientists just like their parents. As a reward for putting up with the uncomfortable stay in the rain forest, their parents had planned a family vacation to the Galapagos Islands once their research was complete. The boys were so excited for this new adventure since they had never been to this area of the world before.
How does the narrator of the story help the reader learn how Steven feels about the trip?
a By using a vivid description to show Steven's excitement as they approach the island.
b By telling the reader that Steven wants to be a scientist like his parents.
c By telling the reader that Steven is not looking forward to their vacation.
d By telling the reader that Steven worked hard to plan this vacation for his family.
Answer:
A) By using a vivid description to show Steven's excitement as they approach the island.
Brenda and Louise are twin sisters who each married 20 years ago. Brenda and her husband run a small piano tuning business. They have had a small, loyal customer base, and their modest but adequate income has not changed over time. Louise and her husband each work for a corporation, and their incomes have steadily increased over the last 20 years allowing them to increase their standard of living. Assuming that Brenda and Louise began their married lives equally happy, and based on their income histories alone, what would you predict about the subjective well-being of Brenda and Louise today
Answer: Probably, still happy
Explanation:
People measure success differently, and what makes an individual happy may not be applicable to another, some person's gain satisfaction in doing their own business, while some prefer working for other people. This is why there isn't any specific measure for people's success. Concerning Brenda and Louise, there is a great possibility that they are happy in their various endeavors, having chosen a particular career part and stuck to it for years. This doesn't mean they won't have challenges but means they are happy where they are.

What are vesting rights? Question 33 options: the ability of retired employees to retain their seniority if they return to work at their former employer a government commitment to provide retirement benefits to all U.S. workers the designation that retired workers will receive cost-of-living increases as part of their monthly pension checks the guarantee that employees in a pension plan will receive a pension at retirement age, regardless of whether they stay with the employer the ability of younger workers to move their retirement savings to another account after leaving a specific employer
Answer:
the guarantee that employees in a pension plan will receive a pension at retirement age, regardless of whether they stay with the employer.
Explanation:
An employee can be defined as an individual who is employed by an employer of labor to perform specific tasks, duties or functions in an organization.
Basically, an employee is saddled with the responsibility of providing specific services to the organization or company where he is currently employed while being paid a certain amount of money hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly depending on the contractual agreement between the two parties (employer and employee).
Thus, while an employer may be the owner of a business firm or company, an employee is a subordinate employed to provide unwavering services to the employer while also, being professional and diligent at all times.
Vested rights can be defined as an unconditional right belonging to an individual as a property interest and as such cannot be denied, impaired or taken away from him or her. Thus, these rights are generally enforceable claims under the law.
Hence, vesting rights is the guarantee that employees in a pension plan will receive a pension at retirement age, regardless of whether they stay with the employer.
Kiran's family took a road trip to Niagara Falls. Kiran slept through the last 62% of the trip. If the total length of the trip was 1000 miles, how many miles had they travelled when Kiran fell asleep?
Answer: 380
Explanation:
So we know that 62% of the trip she was asleep. Basically we need to subtract 100- 62 and get 38. 38% she was awake. Therefore once we get that we covert it into a decimal
It would be .38 we multiply by the total miles (1000) and your answer will be 380. :)
