Answer:
Option A is correct.
deficit; negative
Explanation:
In a small open economy, starting from a position of balanced trade, if the government increases domestic government purchases, this produces a tendency toward a trade <u>deficit </u>and <u>negaive</u> net capital outflow.
This corresponds to the concept of twin deficits where a budget deficit that results from increased government purchases, also results in current account deficit. Since trade deficit implies negative NX there is a negative NCO.
Answer:
$33,700 (Favorable)
Explanation:
Note: Figures are not inputted. The missing figures have been figured out as below.
"<em>Nexus industries uses a standard costing system to apply manufacturing costs to its production process. In May nexus anticipated 2700 units with fixed manufacturing overhead costs allocated at $8.40 per direct labor hour with a standard of 2.5 direct labor hours per unit. In May, actual production was 3400 units and actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost were $23000. What was nexus fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance in May</em>?"
Solution:
Budgeted fixed overhead costs = Units * Direct labor cost * Standard Direct Labor hours per unit
= 2,700 units * $8.40 * 2.5
= 2,700 units * 21
= $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual fixed overhead cost - Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs
When Actual fixed overhead = $23,000
, Budgeted fixed overhead costs = $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = $23,000 - $56,700
= $33,700 (Favorable)

Answer:
B) adaptive
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described it can be said that this form of expectations formation is known as adaptive expectations. These are expectations formed from a process in which individuals predict what will most likely occur in the future based on the data of what has already happened in the past.
Answer: C. high returns
Explanation: Risk-return tradeoff is an investing theory which indicates that as higher the risk, the greater the return reward. In order to determine an acceptable risk-return tradeoff, investors need to weigh several aspects, including total risk exposure, the ability to substitute missing capital, and more.
