Paz observes the announcer on a financial television program state that the nation is now facing a high inflation rate.

A. With the current high inflation rate, the value of Paz’s investments will possibly not grow at the same rate as the general level of inflation.

<h3>What does it indicate if the inflation rate is high?</h3>

High inflation, therefore, is when prices for interests and items is unusually high. Customers can therefore get less for their money when purchasing. Although a little inflation can be flattering, it can also hurt individual finances, counting on the circumstances.

<h3>Why is high inflation wrong for the economy?</h3>

When inflation is high, money and non-interest bearing checking accounts are avoided because they are constantly declining in purchasing power. People will use useful economic resources (including their time and "shoe leather") to scrimp on their holdings of such money balances.

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

C. No, it will increase cost by $100.

Explanation:

Z Corp. can make three individual deliveries to three different customers at a cost of $500 each

Given that:

Cost of shipment = $1300

Cost of each delivery = $500

Stop of charge = $100 per stop

Total cost if for individual delivery to three different customers = 3($500) = $1500

Since they are three different customers, the total stop charge = 3($100)

cost for consolidating them into one shipment= $1300 + 3($100) = $1300 + $300 = $1600

Therefore there is an increase in cost of $1600 - $1500 = $100

sweet [91]

FCF is a measure of how much cash a business generates from operations, net of capital expenditures, which it can use for various purposes, such as reducing debt or paying out dividends. When calculating FCF, we take Cash provided by operating activities and subtract any capital expenditures. Grossman Lumber generated $102,000 in cash from operations, and invested 4,000 in capital expenditures, so its FCF is 102,000-4,000= $98,000. We are not concerned with dividends because dividends are not a capital expenditure.
