Neha and Teresa are roommates. They spend most of their time studying (of course), but they leave some time for their favorite activities: making pizza and brewing root beer. Neha takes 3 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 2 hours to make a pizza. Teresa takes 7 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 5 hours to make a pizza.
Neha's opportunity cost of making a pizza is _____ of root beer, and Teresa's opportunity cost of making a pizza is _____ of root beer.
_____ has an absolute advantage in making pizza, and _____ has a comparative advantage in making pizza.
If Neha and Teresa trade foods with each other, _____ will trade away pizza in exchange for root beer.
The price of pizza can be expressed in terms of gallons of root beer. The highest price at which pizza can be traded that would make both roommates better off is _____ of root beer, and the lowest price that makes both roommates better off is _____ of root beer per pizza.

Answer:

Neha's opportunity cost of making a pizza is 0.67 gallons of root beer, and Teresa's opportunity cost of making a pizza is 0.71 gallons of root beer.

Neha has an absolute advantage in making pizza, and Neha has a comparative advantage in making pizza.

If Neha and Teresa trade foods with each other, Neha will trade away pizza in exchange for root beer. The price of pizza can be expressed in terms of gallons of root beer. The highest price at which pizza can be traded that would make both roommates better off is 0.71 gallons of root beer, and the lowest price that makes both roommates better off is 0.67 gallons of root beer per pizza.

Explanation:

Neha's opportunity cost to brew a gallon of root beer = 3/2 = 1.5 pizzas

Neha's opportunity cost to make a pizza = 2/3 = 0.67 gallons of root beer

Teresa's opportunity cost to brew a gallon of root beer = 7/5 = 1.4 pizzas

Teresa's opportunity cost to make a pizza = 5/7 = 0.71 gallons of root beer

Opportunity costs are extra costs or benefits lost that result from choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. E.g. in this case, Neha can either make 1.5 pizzas or 1 gallon of root beer during a 3 hour period, but she cannot make both of the together. She must choose one or the other.

Charles Lackey operates a bakery in Idaho​ Falls, Idaho. Because of its excellent product and excellent​ location, demand has increased by 55​% in the last year. On far too many​ occasions, customers have not been able to purchase the bread of their choice. Because of the size of the​ store, no new ovens can be added. At a staff​ meeting, one employee suggested ways to load the ovens differently so that more loaves of bread can be baked at one time. This new process will require that the ovens be loaded by​ hand, requiring additional manpower. This is the only thing to be changed.​ (Productivity remains the​ same.) ​The bakery makes 1,500 loaves per month with a labor productivity of 2.344 loaves per labor-hour, how many workers will lackey need to add? (hint: each worker works 160 hours per month).

The suppliers have limited capacity, and no one supplier can meet all the company's needs. In addition, the suppliers charge different prices for the components. Component price data (in price per unit) are as follows:

Supplier
Component 1 2 3
1 $10 $12 $14
2 $10 $10 $11
Each supplier has a limited capacity in terms of the total number of components it can supply. However, as long as Edwards provides sufficient advance orders, each supplier can devote its capacity to component 1, component 2, or any combination of the two components, if the total number of units ordered is within its capacity. Supplier capacities are as follows:
Supplier 1 2 3
Capacity 600 1050 775
1. If the Edwards production plan for the next period includes 1000 units of component 1 and 800 units of component 2, how many units of each component (C1, C2) should be ordered from each supplier (S1, S2, S3)?
2. What is the total purchase cost for the components?
