Answer:
If the money wage rate increased from $40.00 to 45.24 and hour and consumer prices rose by 16%, we would expect _______ people to try to find a job and employed people to want to work _______ hours.
a. more; longer.
The____ would _____.
b. quantity of labor supplied; increase.
Explanation:
Generally, when wage rates increase, this will led to an increase in the inflation rate. The problem is what happens if wages increase less than the inflation rate. This means that real wages will actually decrease once we adjust them to inflation. This will cause more people trying to get a job or working longer hours just to be able to pay for the same amount of goods as before.
In this example, the wage rate increased by 13.1%, but the inflation rate increased by 16%, so real wages decreased.

Answer:
a) Share price of company is $28.20.
b) So value of unlevered firm is $4.512 million.
Explanation:
a.
Share price = Value of debt / (160,000 - 110,000)
= $1,410,000 / 50,000
= $28.20
Share price of company is $28.20.
b.
VAlue of all equity firm = Number of share outstanding × Price per share
= 160,000 × $28.20
= $4.512 million
Value of levered firm is $4.512 million.
Since tax rate is zero, so value of levered firm equal to value of unlevered firm.
So value of unlevered firm is $4.512 million.

Explanation:
Calculation to determine the current share price
Using this formula
Current share price=6.5*Present value of annuity factor(9.1%,12)
Present value of annuity=Annuity*[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate
Let plug in the formula
Current share price=6.5*[1-(1+0.091)^-12]/0.091
Current share price=6.5*[1-(1.091)^-12]/0.091
Current share price=6.5*7.124793
Current share price=$46.31
Therefore the current share price will be $46.31
Answer:
Lenders loose and borrowers gain
Explanation:
Whenever inflation increases the value of money falls and technically erodes interest rates (hence real interest rate falls although nominal rate stays the same)
In the scenario, if the inflation rate rises to 5.5%, then the real interest rate falls further from 1.5% to (5.75% - 5.5%) 0.25%, demonstrating that the lender is loosing further.
Contrarily, the borrower will technically be paying lesser interest to the lender because he will be paying lesser money in value to the lender both in terms of interest and principal
