Answer: 1. real GDP declined.
Explanation:
If labor productivity fell yet the workforce did not increase, that means that for Years 1 and 2, workers were producing less than they were producing before because the same number of people were producing.
This means that the amount of goods produced in the country would reduce and therefore GDP would reduce as well as GDP is the amount of goods and services produced in a country. If labor productivity had fallen yet the work-hours had increased, the increase in worker hours would have made up for the loss of labor productivity.
Answer:
option (C) - 6.11%
Explanation:
Data provided :
Coupon rate one year ago = 6.5% = 0.065
Semiannual coupon rate = 
= 0.0325
Face value = $1,000
Present market yield = 7.2% = 0.072
Semiannual Present market yield, r = 
= 0.036
Now,
With semiannual coupon rate bond price one year ago, C
= 0.0325 × $1,000
= $32.5
Total period in 15 years = 15 year - 1 year = 14 year
or
n = 14 × 2 = 28 semiannual periods
Therefore,
The present value = ![C\times[\frac{(1-(1+r)^{-n})}{r}]+FV(1+r)^{-n}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C%5Ctimes%5B%5Cfrac%7B%281-%281%2Br%29%5E%7B-n%7D%29%7D%7Br%7D%5D%2BFV%281%2Br%29%5E%7B-n%7D)
= ![\$32.5\times[\frac{(1-(1+0.036)^{-28})}{0.036}]+\$1,000\times(1+0.036)^{-28}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%2432.5%5Ctimes%5B%5Cfrac%7B%281-%281%2B0.036%29%5E%7B-28%7D%29%7D%7B0.036%7D%5D%2B%5C%241%2C000%5Ctimes%281%2B0.036%29%5E%7B-28%7D)
or
= $32.5 × 17.4591 + $1,000 × 0.37147
= $567.42 + $371.47
= $938.89
Hence,
The percent change in bond price = 
= 
= - 6.11%
therefore,
the correct answer is option (C) - 6.11%
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The conservative approach is that the firm has greater level of working capital investment than the competitor or industry average. So to fund the higher level of working capital the company has a set of policy and targets related to the level of debt level which means the company will not be willing to borrow further money if their borrowing exceeds the set limit or benchmark. They might use the equity instruments (Preferred stock or Common equity) to fund the higher level of working capital.
So their no absolute argument whether the denominator will increase or the nominator will increase in the Total debt to capital ratio. Hence the statement is false.
Total manufacturing costs=direct material+direct labor+manufacturing overhead
Calculate direct labor
Let direct labor be x
120%=1.2
1.2x=180000
Divide both sides by 1.2
X=180,000÷1.2
X=150,000 direct labor
Total manufacturing costs=
120,000+150,000+180,000
=450,000...answer
Hope it helps!
