Answer: a). Spain
b). none
c). 2.4
Explanation: a). Absolute advantage occurs when a country produces more of a good than the other country. In this case, Spain produces 50 units of Tractors while, Bolivia produces only 30 units of Tractors. Thus, Since Spain is producing more it has an absolute advantage in Tractors.
b). Both the countries are producing equal units of Cotton. Thus, we can say that none of them has an absolute advantage in cotton production.
c. Opportunity cost is the cost of the lost alternative. When Spain produces Tractors it is sacrificing production of Cotton. So, opportunity cost on 1 unit of Tractor will be,
Thus, 2.4 units of cotton which is given up is the opportunity cost of Spain for producing 1 unit of Tractor.
Answer:
B, 195750
Explanation:
Let's first figure out the manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour
175500/13000= 13.5
So we allocate 13.5 in manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour
Let's the mulitply this by the number of actual direct labor hours
14500*13.5=195750
Answer:
2) assumption not made
Explanation:
The original statement does not include any assumption about what the companies are doing about this issue, it just proposes an idea of fair compensation.
maybe whoever wrote this statement believes that very few companies or none at all actually compensate homeowners for a reduction in the market value of their properties, but it doesn't state it.

It is calculated by taking price changes for each item in the predetermined basket of goods and averaging them</em>
Answer:
The unstated assumptions in the problems given is that the company may require more units of aluminium and steel, which would allow for producing more bicycles.A linear programming model cannot account for this.
Explanation:
Linear programming model: this is an algebraic description of te objectives to be minimized and the constraints to be satisfied by the variables.
