Yosemite has a comparative advantage in the production of ◻ – while Denali has a comparative advantage in the production of ◻ . Suppose that Yosemite and Denali specialize in the production of the goods in which each has a comparative advantage. After specialization, the two countries can produce a total of ◻ million pounds of corn and ◻ million pounds of basil.
Homework (Ch 03)
The following graph shows the same PPF for Denali as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A.
As wou did for Yosemite, place a black point (symbol) on the following graph to indicate Denal’s consumption after trade.
Consumption After Trade
True or False: Without engaging in international trade, Yosemite and Denali would not have been able to consume at the after-trade consumption bundles. (Hint: Base this question on the answers you previously entered on this page.)

(Answered) One way to interpret the change in Cold Goose’s accounts receivable balance from Year 1 to Year 2…
One way to interpret the change in Cold Goose’s accounts receivable balance from Year 1 to Year 2 is that more customers purchased new items on credit rather than paying off exasting credit accounts. This statement is because:
The change from $99,000 to $123,750 reflects a net accumulation of new credit sales. The docrease from $42,183 to $33,750 implies a net decrease in accounts feetentle and that more customers are paying off their receivables balances than are buying on credit. The $8,438 increase in accounts receivable means efther that Year 1’s existing credit customers are not paying off their owed balances and new or existing customers are making additional purchases on credt, or that Year 1’s credit customers have repaid their owed balances and Year 2 credit sales have exceeded Year 1 ‘s credit sales. -

Suppose a researcher isolates a peptide from brain tissue that binds to the same receptor as an opiate drug. This peptide is an opioid enkephalin, a class of endogenous peptides that act within the brain to lower pain sensation. The researcher performs a series of procedures to determine the peptide’s sequence. First, the researcher completely hydrolyzes the peptide by boiling in an 185% w/w HCl solution. Analysis of the hydrolysis products indicates the presence of Gly, Leu, Phe, and Tyr, in a 2:1:1:1 molar ratio. Chromatography of the products after dansylation indicates the presence of the dansyl-amino-acid derivative of tyrosine. No free tyrosine is present. Given the empirical composition and the results from the dansyl chloride reaction, where is Tyr located in the peptide?
interior of the peptide
cannot be determined from these results

The Law of Diminishing Marginal Returns states that:
Group of answer choices
If at least one input is fixed, as we increase the variable input, we will eventually reach a point where the extra output generated by a one-unit increase in variable input starts to get smaller and smaller.
If at least one input is fixed, as we increase the variable input, we will eventually reach a point where the total output generated by variable input starts to get smaller and smaller.
If all inputs are variable, as we increase these variable inputs, we will eventually reach a point where the extra output generated by a one-unit increase in variable input starts to get smaller and smaller.
If at least one input is fixed, as we increase the variable input, we will eventually reach a point where the extra output generated by a one-unit increase in variable input starts to get bigger and bigger. -

➤ How do you compute the approximate per capita growth rate g* for s=0.2, θ=4, δ=0.05, n=0.015?
Apply the corrected Solow approximation g* ≈ s/θ − n − δ. Compute s/θ = 0.2/4 = 0.05. Then 0.05 − 0.015 − 0.05 = −0.015. The approximate per capita growth is −0.015, or −1.5% per year, showing capital dilution exceeds investment. -

As Tech booms, workers turn to coding for career changePaul Minton, a 26-year-old math major, made $20,000 a year as a waiter. After completing a three-month course at Galvanize, a coding school in San Francisco, his starting salary at a web start-up was more than $100,000 a year. Coding schools can’t keep up with the demand for workers like Paul Minton. Source:The New York Times, July 28, 2015
Why are graduates who work as waiters going to coding school?
Graduates who work as waiters are going to coding school because _______.
the job of a coder is more interesting than being a waiter.
the human capital of a coder exceeds that of a waiter
they want a job that requires more skill
the value of the marginal product of a coder is greater than that of a waiter
