If the government cuts taxes by $40 billion, this puts more money in consumers' pockets. Given an MPC of 0.8, this means they will spend $32 billion

Evaluating :

(0.8 × $40 = $32).

The correct answer is an increase of $32 billion.

GDP:

Gross domestic product (GDP) is a measure of the final goods and services produced with a specific region over a specified period of time. It is computed as follows:

GDP = Consumption + Government Spend + Investment + Net Exports

What is Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)?

Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is measured as the portion of an increase in pay that a consumer would spend on goods and services as opposed to saving. Essentially, it is measuring how sensitive consumption in an economy is to increases in income. MPC is important in economics because it illustrates the effect that increased government spending has on the economy.

You are saving for retirement. To live​ comfortably, you decide you will need to save $ 4 million by the time you are 65. Today
olasank [31]

Answer: $50,846.3701

Explanation:

Need to save $4 million to live comfortably,

Interest rate, r = 3%

N = 40 years

Present\ value=\frac{FV_{N} }{(1+i)^{N}}

Present\ value=\frac{4,000,000 }{(1+0.03)^{40}}

Present\ value=\frac{4,000,000 }{3.262}

                             = 1,226,241.57

Present\ value\ of\ annuity= C\times\frac{1}{i}\times(1-\frac{1}{(1+i)^{N}}) + C

1,226,241.57= C\times\frac{1}{0.03}\times(1-\frac{1}{(1.03)^{40}})+C

1,226,241.57= C\times\frac{1}{0.03}\times(1-\frac{1}{(1.03)^{40}})+C

1,226,241.57=C[\frac{1}{0.03}\times(1-0.3065)+1]

1,226,241.57=24.1166\times C

C=\frac{1,226,241.57}{24.1166}

         = $50,846.3701

Hence, $50,846.3701 will be the annual payment to have $4 million in the account on 65th birthday.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The explicit cost of flight includes cost of fuel, maintenance cost, payment to pilot.

Explanation:

The explicit costs are the direct costs incurred during the process of production or business. Here, the payments made to the pilot will be a variable cost, the cost of fuel, etc will be explicit cost.  

The marginal explicit cost is the increase in the explicit cost with an additional output. The incremental cost of flight correctly determines the marginal explicit cost.  

Opportunity cost is the cost of sacrificing the alternative. Here, the marginal opportunity cost will be the revenue that the firm would have earned by renting the flight to other firms or individuals.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

$587,500

Explanation:

You are required to calculate the value of the levered firm;

vL = vU + Dt, whereby;

vL = Value of levered firm

vU = value of unlevered firm

Dt = debt * tax ; which is the tax shield

Find value of unlevered firm;

vU = [EBIT(1-tax) ]/ rE

    = [100,000(1-0.30)] / 0.16

    = 437,500

Value of levered firm;

vL = 437,500 + (500,000*0.30)

   = 437,500 +150,000

   = $587,500
