Answer:
c. fiscal and monetary policies that impact aggregate demand do not impact the natural rate of unemployment.
Explanation:
Short run Philips Curve is downward sloping, due to inverse relationship between unemployment rate & inflation rate. High economic activity implies more inflation rate, less unemployment. Low economic activity implies less inflation rate, more unemployment.
However, the inverse relationship between inflation & unemployment is only in short run & not in long run. In long run, this inflation - unemployment trade off doesn't exist. So, any fiscal or monetary policy affecting aggregate demand & consecutively inflation rate, do not affect the natural rate of unemployment (combination of frictional & structural unemployment rate) in long run.
Answer:
Hotel Co. should record the gross transaction fee and not only the net amount it receives from Expedia.
Explanation:
The revenue that Hotel Co. should account for in its books includes the gross transaction fee, while the collection expense that is withheld by Expedia is recorded as an expense or cost. This method ensures that the revenue due to the Hotel Co. is actually accounted for while the collection expense by Expedia is also separately accounted for. This will enable comparison with another hotel that does not use Expedia for its collection, for example.
Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Cost of Equity (Ke) = Rf + Beta ( Rp)
where,
Rf = risk free rate
Rp = Market risk premium
Hence,
Beta systematic risk
:
= 7% + 1.7 (6%)
= 7% + 10.2%
= 17.2%
Post Tax cost of debt:
= Kd ( 1 - T)
where,
Kd = cost of debt
T = tax rate
= 20% * (1-0.4)
= 12%
WACC = [ (Ke × We) + (Wd × Kd(1-T)) ]
where,
We = weight of equity
Wd = weight of debt
= [(17.2% × 0.6) + (0.4 × 20% × (1 - 0.4))]
= 10.32% + 4.80%
= 15.12%
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": learner characteristics.
Explanation:
In psychology, there are three main learner's characteristics considered: personal characteristics (<em>demographic information from the learners such as age, gender, language or social-economic status</em>), academic characteristics (<em>type of education and qualifications</em>), and cognitive characteristics (<em>level of intellectual skills and type of operational memory</em>).
<em>These characteristics must be considered by trainers at the moment of creating their programs since they must include a variety of learning approaches suitable for each type of learner in an attempt to ensure they will understand the information the trainer wants to transmit.</em>

The correct answer is letter "C": the United States becoming a transcontinental nation.

<em>The effect of the war was California, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona being annexed to the U.S. territory.</em>
