Suppose your Chaffey college tuition per semester is $4,000 and your extra expenses with the college during the year (books, ather materiais, gas, meals, etc) sum $3,000. If you were not attending college, you could work at firm X and get an annual salary of $ 5,000. What is your opportunity cost of attending college in one year? In your calculations assume that you are taking 2 semesters in a year

Suppose Nicholas owns a business making Christmas tree ornaments. Currently, he makes 300 ornaments a month. At this level of production, each additional ornament takes him 30 minutes to make and costs him $5 in materials. Nicholas makes his ornaments in a small studio that he rents for $300 a month. Nicholas can easily increase or decrease the amount of time he spends making ornaments, and he can easily go to the store to buy additional materials to make the ornaments, but he has a year-long lease on his studio, so he has to pay his monthly rent no matter how many ornaments he produces each month. Nicholas values his time at $10 per hour. Other than his time, the cost of the materials and the rent on his studio, Nicholas has no additional production costs. a At Nicholas's current level of production, what is the marginal cost of making an additional ornament each month? b. At Nicholas's current level of production, what is the monthly average fixed cost of each ornament? c. Assuming…
