Assuming that you received $500 for your birthday, spent $400 of it, and saved the remaining $20. There are 20 MPs, or marginal propensities to save.

MPS= change in savings/change in income. A change in income of $500 changes savings by $20

<h3 /><h3>Why Do People Have a Marginal Propensity to Consume?</h3>
  • The opposite of MPS is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). The link between income and consumption is quantified with the aid of MPC.
  • By dividing the change in spending by the change in income, one can determine their marginal propensity to consume.
  • In order to calculate how much spending rises for every dollar of increased income, MPC measures this relationship.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

$1,125,000

Explanation:

Given;

Gain from asset disposal = $225,000

Book value of asset disposed = $900,000

Therefore,

Amount of cash received from the sale = $900,000 + $225,000

                                                                  = $1,125,000

This represents an inflow of cash and will be represented by a positive value in the statement of cash flows. The total amount reported in the cash flows from investing activities section of the statement of cash flows is $1,125,000

The risk free rate of return is 2.5% and the market risk premium is 8%. Rogue Transport has a beta of 2.2 and a standard deviati
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

20.1%

Explanation:

In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:

<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>

Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>

Putting all the number together, we have:

Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%

<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>
