The Boo company produces two different Halloween costumes, using the same assembly line. The skeleton requires 1 hour of assembly line time and $2 of material. The ghost costume requires one-half hour of assembly line time and $3 of material. Assembly line time costs $10/hour. The Novelty Company is run by a former microeconomics student, so it is run according to the best economic principles. If the company is producing both costumes on the line this holiday season, what does that tell you about the price of ghost versus skeleton costumes? I don't understand why ghosts would cost more?? Wouldn't that cost more because it takes half the time and not double?? FYI, apparently the ghosts cost more. I just do not know why.
