Answer: A target price for farm crops is an example of price floor because it’s fixed ahead of harvests with the interest of farmers in mind.
Explanation: A quick definition of both concepts would be of help. A price floor is usually fixed by government legislation and it ensures that the price of a commodity or service does not fall below a certain minimum. In the case of farm crops, a floor price makes sure that the farmers are guaranteed a level of profit in case there is poor harvest for any reason whatsoever. The price floor must be fixed above the equilibrium price for this to be effective.
A target price is an expectation of the future price of commodities or services, and hence prices are fixed ahead of the harvest in the case of farm crops. This is so because as explained earlier, future conditions might change and become unfavorable, therefore making the current market price unprofitable for farmers. If for example, a sack of potatoes currently sells for $30, the government may fix the price floor ahead of the harvest season at $45 per sack. This implies that after harvesting farmers can still sell at $30. However if the harvest turns out to be bad perhaps due to natural disasters, pests or fungal attacks, etc, then the farmers can go ahead and sell at $45 and possibly higher. No farmer is allowed to sell below $45 (since that is the ‘floor’). That way, farmers would still have some profit guaranteed and would be encouraged to remain in the farming business.

Answer:
The requirement of the question is as below:
How much must Alan deposit on January 1? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
What is the interest for the four years? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
Alan deposit on January 1 is $ 58,802.39
Interest for four years is $21,197.61
Explanation:
The first is asking for today's worth of the investment,which is the amount to be invested,this can be computed using the present value as shown below:
PV=FV*(1+r)^-n
PV is the present value
FV is the worth of the investment in 4 years from now which is $80,000
r is the rate of return of 8%
n is the number of years of investment which is 4 years
PV=$80,000*(1+8%)^-4
PV=$80,0008(1+0.08)^-4
PV=$80,000*(1.08)^-4
PV =$ 58,802.39
interest for four years=FV-PV
interest for four years=$80,000-$ 58,802.39
=$21,197.61
Answer:
C. $12,000 under the cash method and $4,000 under the accrual method
Explanation:
Under the cash basis of accounting, whenever an amount is received or paid, it is recognized in the books of accounts
Whereas, on the accrual basis of accounting, the cash received / payment or not it is recognized in the books of accounts. It is recorded when it is earned not when it is received or paid.
So, by this above information
The cash method would recognize $12,000 ($1,000 × 12 months)
Whereas
The accrual method would recognize $4,000 ($1,000 × 4 months)
We assume the books are closed on December, 31
The multiplier applies to the investment, net exports and government spending.
