Megan and Susan 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. Megan takes 5 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 3 hours to make a pizza. Susan takes 8 hours to brew a gallon of root beer and 4 hours to make a pizza. Megan's opportunity cost of making a pizza is (1/2 gallon, 2 gallon, 3/5 gallon, 1 2/3 gallon) of root beer, and Susan's opportunity cost of making a pizza is (1/2 gallon, 2 gallon, 3/5 gallon, 1 2/3 gallon) of root beer.
(Megan/Susan) has an absolute advantage in making pizza, and (Megan/Susan) has a comparative advantage in making pizza.
If Megan and Susan trade foods with each other, (Megan/Susan) 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 (1/2 gallon, 2 gallon, 3/5 gallon, 1 2/3 gallon) of root beer, and the lowest price that makes both roommates better off is (1/2 gallon, 2 gallon, 3/5 gallon, 1 2/3 gallon) of root beer per pizza.

< back to assignment attempts: 1 1 keep the highest: 1 / 2 2. determining opportunity cost juanita is deciding whether to buy a suit that she wants, as well as where to buy it. three stores carry the same suit, but it is more convenient for juanita to get to some stores than others. for example, she can go to her local store, located 15 minutes away from where she works, and pay a marked-up price of $102 for the suit: store travel time each way price of a suit (minutes) (dollars per suit) local department store 15 102 across town 30 88 neighboring city 60 65 juanita makes $42 an hour at work. she has to take time off work to purchase her suit, so each hour away from work costs her $42 in lost income. assume that returning to work takes juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. as you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling. complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location. store opportunity cost of time price of a suit total cost (dollars) (dollars per suit) (dollars) local department store 102 across town 88 neighboring city 65 assume that juanita takes opportunity costs and the price of the suit into consideration when she shops. juanita will minimize the cost of the suit if she buys it from the . grade it now save & continue continue without saving
