Answer:
The interest rate is 7.83%
Explanation:
The winner price in the year 1895 = $190
The winner price in the year 2014 = $1490000
Time duration between, 2014 – 1895 = 119 years
Now we have to find the interest rate at which the winner price has been increased. Thus, use the below formula to find the interest rate.
Future value = present value (1+ r)^n
Future value = $1490000
Present value = $190
n = 119
Now insert the values in the formula.
1490000 = 190(1 + r)^119
1490000 / 190 = (1+r)^119
r = 0.07826 or 7.83%
Answer:
$3,927
Explanation:
For the computation of bid price first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-
Manufacturing overhead rate = Overhead cost ÷ Machine hours
= 45,000 ÷ 100,000
= $0.45
Total manufacturing cost charged to the school
= 2,000 + 400 + (900 × 0.45)
= $2,805
Markup cost = $2,805 × 0.4
= $1,122
Bid price of job = Total manufacturing cost charged to school + Markup cost
= $2,805 + $1,122
= $3,927
Answer:
The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $5 per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $3 per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $2 per bottle. True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on producers.
Explanation:
The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $5 ($3 + $2).
The burden on consumers is $3 ($9 - $6), which is the difference between the after-tax purchase price and the before-tax purchase price for consumers. This implies that the burden passed to consumers is $3 out of the total tax burden of $5.
The burden on producers is $2 ($6 - $4) which represents the difference between before-tax selling price and the after-tax selling price for the producers. This means that the burden passed to producers is $2 out of the total tax burden of $5.
If the tax burden were passed to the producers alone, the selling price would have been more than $11 ($6 + 5). This would have reduced demand for wine as consumers would have been forced to bear the total burden. This would have made the tax unequitable. This would have been the case unless demand is inelastic. That means that the total demanded is not sensitive to price increases.
