Answer:
B
Explanation:
I think you've already figured this out for yourself, but I thought I'd answer anyway and maybe clarify some things.
Supply is the total amount of a <u>good or service</u> that is available to consumers.
- Think about it: goods are physical things bought and sold, like apples. Services are actions done for another person, like taxi driving or renting a used car.
- None of the other answers make sense: a "device" is not a strictly defined term in economics; an "industry" can't be available to consumers, and a "warranty" isn't applicable.
Answer:
The correct answer is Demand is inelastic, but not perfectly.
Explanation:
Inelastic demand is that demand that is not very sensitive to a change in price. In this way, before a variation in the price the quantity demanded reacts in a less than proportional way. For example, if the price increases by 10% and in response the quantity demanded is reduced by less than 10%, then the demand is said to be inelastic.
The elasticity of demand, also known as the elasticity-price of demand, is defined as the percentage change of the quantity demanded before a percentage change in the price.
Answer:
Explanation:
Pretax cost of debt is the annual rate(YTM) of the bond. Using a financial calculator, input the following to calculate it;
N = 5*2 = 10
PV = -(95% *10,000,000) = -9,500,000
Coupon PMT = (6%/2)*10,000,000 = 300,000
FV = 10,000,000
then compute semiannual rate; CPT I/Y = 3.604%
convert to annual rate = 3.604*2 = 7.21%(this is the pretax cost of debt)
After tax cost of debt is calculated because interest payable on debt has tax shield. The formula is as follows;
Aftertax cost of debt = pretax cost of debt (1-tax)
AT cost of debt = 7.21% (1-0.40)
AT cost of debt = 4.33%
Answer:
$50,000,000; $55,000,000
Explanation:
In Macroland there is $10,000,000 in currency. The public holds half of the currency and banks hold the rest as reserves. If banks' desired reserve/deposit ratio is 10%, deposits in Macroland equal <u>$50,000,000 </u> and the money supply equals <u>$55,000,000</u>
