Answer:
The question has below options:
A. The unsold cars count as inventory investment for 2017. 2018 GDP is not affected.
B.The unsold cars count as consumption spending in 2018.
C. The unsold cars count in the inventory investment category for both years and count as consumption spending in 2018.
Option B is the correct answer
Explanation:
The unsold stock of 10 cars in 2017 is classified as investment since the cost of producing them is expected to yield returns in 2018 when they have been sold.
However, the unsold stock of 2017 becomes 2018 consumption of GDP since it relates to household expenditure in 2018, as a result it is accorded such classification.
It cannot be classified as government expenditure as the government is not the one purchasing the vehicle
Also, the ten cars have nothing to do with import or export as they are trade within the domestic economy
Answer: $220,000
Explanation:
Using the Accrual Method of Accounting means that revenue is only to be recorded when it is earned i.e. when services have been delivered.
Any revenue received when the services have not been delivered will be recorded as Unearned Revenue.
With $528,000 in subscription revenue, the monthly subscription is;
= 528,000/12
= $44,000
From June to December would be 7 months so they would have earned;
= 44,000 * 7
= $308,000
The amount that they have not earned but have received would therefore be;
= 528,000 - 308,000
= $220,000
<em>This amount will be recorded after they finish deliveries of magazines in next year May. </em>
Answer: a.$275,000
Explanation:
Let us assume local production sales of 0 for simplicity of analysis.
At 0 there will be no Variable Costs and no fixed costs because they are dependant on the amount of units produced.
If then Rylan Corporation receives 25,000 units at $16 per unit this will change the Variable costs as it will have to incorporate the new units.
The question however says that normal production continues. This means that Fixed costs do not change. That means fixed costs remain at $0.
That means the only change will be the Variable costs of selling 25,000 units.
At a rate of $11 per unit we then have,
= 11 * 25,000
= $275,000
The costs have increased by $275,000 from 0 which means that $275,000 is the Incremental cost.
Note that Fixed and Variable costs of 0 are improbable and we're only used for simpler analysis. Feel free to try the question with other number of units for your own practice. You will arrive at the same answer regardless.
Factors of production im pretty sure
Answer: D) cyclical
Explanation:
Cyclical Demand is difficult to predict because it goes according to the business cycle and hence is affected on a Macro Economic scale by events at a National or International level.
This means that something could be in demand today but the demand could fall or rise sharply based on the stage of the business cycle the economy is in.
