Answer:
Economist Brown : Perfectly Inelastic (Vertical) Aggregate Supply
Economist Black : Perfectly Elastic (Horizontal) Aggregate Supply
Explanation:
Economy is at equilibrium where : Aggregate Demand = Aggregate Supply.
Aggregate Demand is downward sloping curve, as aggregate demand is inversely related with price. Increase in AD shifts the AD curve rightwards.
Aggregate Supply is usually upward sloping curve, as it is directly related to price. However, as per given special cases by Economists Black & Brown, it is as undermentioned :
- Black : AD increase (rightwards shift) increases only price if - Aggregate Supply is perfectly inelastic i.e non respondent to price & AS curve is vertical.
Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced by an economy, valued at constant base prices. Increase in real GDP implies increase in production quantity.
- Brown : AD increase (rightwards shift) increases only Real GDP (quantity) if - Aggregate Supply is perfectly elastic (infinitely respondent to price, so prices constant) & AS curve is horizontal.
Answer:
a. $1,420,000
b. $4,514,800
Explanation:
When it comes to fixed assets, all costs that directly helped make the asset available for use are to be capitalized.
Cost of Land
= Purchase Value + Cost Incurred to Tear Down 2 Buildings + Legal Fees + Title Insurance Cost + Assessment Cost - Salvage
= 1,300,000 + 110,000 + 5,000 + 3,500 + 9,500 - 8,000
= $1,420,000
Cost of Building
= Architect's Fees + Liability Insurance Cost + Excavation Cost + Contractor's Payment + Interest Cost
= 46,000 + 3,800 + 15,000 + 4,200,000 + 250,000
= $4,514,800
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
And, the market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return is also known as the market risk premium
As we can see that the Alcoa contains high beta as compared to Hormel Foods so the Alcoa has a higher equity cost of capital
And, the higher rate is
= (Excess return of the market) × (Alcoa beta - Hormel foods beta)
= (3%) × (1.85 - 0.39)
= 3% × 1.46
= 4.38%
Answer:
B. Income Tax Expenses
Explanation:
The Purpose of the Income Statement in Financial Statement Preparation is to ascertain the profit or loss of a business entity for a particular year. Usually, the format is as follows:
1. Gross Profit= Sales- Cost of Goods sold(Opening Inventory + Purchases- Closing Inventory)
2. Net Profit/ Net Loss = Gross Profit + Other Revenues and Gains - Expenses for the period.
However, income tax expense is only calculated when the net profit has been ascertained. It is usally referred to as net income before tax. It is based on this figure, that the income tax expense is then calculated based on prevailing income tax percentage.
Every other part of the income statement covers a section, but all sections should be calculated and concluded before the income tax expense can be calculated and then subtracted to arrive at the final income tax.
