A country's economy will go on a decline if there is a hyperinflation in the petrol prices.

<h3>What is hyperinflation?</h3>

Extreme increase in prices in a very short span of time is regarded as the condition of hyperinflation. If there is hyperinflation in the petrol prices, its demand will be lowered and people will look for substitutes.

Thus, increase or hyperinflation in the petrol prices will lead to declining of a country's economy and will not serve as a wise decision.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The new portfolio beta is 1.31 rounded off to two decimal places.

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a function of the sum of the weighted average betas of the individual stock's that form up the portfolio. The portfolio beta is calculated using the following formula,

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

  • w is the weightage of each stock in the portfolio

The beta of the portfolio when one stock with a beta of 1 is sold is,

The sum of individual stock betas for 19 stocks is = 20 * 1.31  -  1 * 1  = 25.2

The new portfolio beta when one stock with a beta of 0.97 is added is,

Portfolio beta = (25.2 + 0.97) / 20

Portfolio beta = 1.3085 rounded off to 1.31

Absorption Costing, also known as Full Costing includes Fixed Manufacturing as part of Product Cost.

All Non - Manufacturing Costs are then Presented as Period Costs

Part 2. Prepare an income statement for the year using variable costing

Variable Costing, also known as Marginal Costing only includes Variable Manufacturing Costs as part of Product Costs

Fixed Manufacturing and All Non - Manufacturing Costs are then Presented as Period Costs.

Product Cost Per Unit:

Direct materials                                    29.00

Direct labor                                           37.00

In the long run equilibrium, a monopolistic competitor will produce to the point at which A) actual average total costs are at t
Artemon [7]

Monopolistic competition is the economic market model with many sellers selling similar, but not identical, products. The demand curve of monopolistic competition is elastic because although the firms are selling differentiated products, many are still close substitutes, so if one firm raises its price too high, many of its customers will switch to products made by other firms. This elasticity of demand makes it similar to pure competition where elasticity is perfect. Demand is not perfectly elastic because a monopolistic competitor has fewer rivals then would be the case for perfect competition, and because the products are differentiated to some degree, so they are not perfect substitutes.

Monopolistic competition has a downward sloping demand curve. Thus, just as for a pure monopoly, its marginal revenue will always be less than the market price, because it can only increase demand by lowering prices, but by doing so, it must lower the prices of all units of its product. Hence, monopolistically competitive firms maximize profits or minimize losses by producing that quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, both over the short run and the long run.

During the current year, the company purchased equipment for $212,000 on October 1. It is estimated the equipment will have a us
qwelly [4]

Answer:

$6250

$5000

$5250

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

($212,000 - $12,000) / 8 = $25,000

The machine was used for only 3 months in the fiscal year. Thus, the depreciation expense = $25,000 x (3/12) = $6250

Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

(1000 / 40,000) x ($212,000 - $12,000) = $5000

Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

($212,000 - $12,000) x (525 / 20,0000)  = $5250
