Answer:

-0.11% per year

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate real interest rate.

Firstly, we calculate the inflation rate

mathematically the inflation rate = (cpi at the end of year - cpi at the beginning of year)/cpi at the beginning of year * 100%

Inflation rate = (232-225)/225 * 100% = 3.11%

we now proceed to calculate the real interest rate

mathematically, real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - inflation rate

from the question, nominal interest rate = 3%

real interest rate = 3% - 3.11% = -0.11%

This means that the real interest rate earned by sally is -0.11% per year

Answer:

The unit costs are $ 4.87 for 70 % Conversion Costs

The unit costs are $ 5.54 for finished goods

Explanation:

Total Materials cost = $ 115,080

Material Costs  for one unit= $ 115,080/ 34000= $ 3.3847= $ 3.39

Conversion Costs= $ 72,072

Conversion Costs for one unit = $ 72072/34000 * 70%= $ 1.4838= $ 1.48

Total Cost per unit= $ 3.39 + $ 1.48= $ 4.87

Process Cost summary

Quantity Schedule

Materials = ($3.39 *34,000)=                   $ 115,080

Cost Added by Department:                     Total Cost             Unit Cost

Materials=                                                  $ 115,080                $ 3.39

Conversion Costs

Labor + Overheads ( 1.48 * 34,000)=       $ 50,320               $ 1.48

Units still in process ($ 72072- $ 50320) = $ 19,752              $0.58

Total cost to be accounted for                   $ 187,152                $ 5.54

Answer:

If the Federal Reserve buys bonds in the open market, it increases the money supply in the economy by swapping out bonds in exchange for cash to the general public.
