Answer:

D) The actions the Federal Reserve takes to manage the money supply and interest rates.

Explanation:

The Federal Reserve System (FED) is an autonomous government entity of the United States of America that functions like a central bank. Its main responsibilities are to manage the nation's money supply (the total amount of money in the economy) and establish federal interest rates (interest yielded by T-bills, T-notes and T-bonds).

GroundSwell Pools, Inc., agrees to build a swimming pool for Francis, but fails to complete the job. Francis hires EquiAqua, Inc
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Option A. The costs needed to complete construction

Explanation:

The reason is that the harm that the Francis beared due to the unableness of the company GroundSwell to complete the construction of the swimming pool is the cost needed to complete the construction because it is the price that the company GroundSwell must pay to EquiAqua Inc. to complete the construction. So this amount required for the completion of the construction is the actual harm to Francis and is also claimable.

You are given the following information for Watson Power Co. Assume the company’s tax rate is 24 percent. Debt: 14,000 6.3 perce
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

10.18%

Explanation:

The computation of the WACC is shown below:

But before that following calculation is to be done

The value of debt is

= 14000 × $1,000 × 107%

= $14,980,000

The value of equity is

= 470,000 × $65

= $30,550,000

The value of preferred stock is

= 20,500 × $86

= $1,763,000

Now

value of total capital is

= $14,980,000  + $30,550,000 + $1,763,000

= $47,293,000

Now we find the cost of debt using excel function i.e.

= RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv)) × 2

= RATE(29 × 2,1000 × 6.3% ÷ 2,-1000 × 107%,1000)) ×2

= 5.80%

Now  

Cost of common stock is

= 5.2% + 1.16 × 7%

= 13.32%

cost of preferred stock is

= (100 × 4.1%) ÷ 86

= 4.77%

Now finally  

WACC = weight of debt × cost of debt ×(1 - tax rate) + weight of equity × cost of equity + weight of preferred stock ×cost of preferred stock

= ($14,980,000 ÷ $47,293,000) × 5.80% × (1  - 24%)+($30,550,000 ÷ $47,293,000) × 13.32% + ($1,763,000 ÷ $47,293,000) ×4.77%

= 10.18%

10. Crowding out effect Suppose economists observe that an increase in government spending of $13 billion raises the total deman
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Effect of crowding out:

The crowding out phenomena describes the economic phenomena in which an increase in government public spending leads to reduced or perhaps may eliminate of private investment.

Multiplier:

The multiplier represents the ratio of income to investment change.

Given that:

$13 billion increase in government spending will lead to a $52 billion

The rise in demand for goods & service will be the value of multiplier which is

= 52/13

= 4

To determine the multiplier using the formula:

Multiplier = 1 /( 1- MPC)

4 = 1/(1 - MPC)

4 (1 - MPC) = 1

(1- MPC) = 1/4

-MPC = 0.25 - 1

MPC = 0.75

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75

6. On February 1, Ann sends Bob a letter offering to employ Bob at Ann’s auto dealership. On February 5, Bob mails Ann a letter
Radda [10]

Answer: A Contract was formed on February 5th

Explanation:

The contract was formed the very day that Bob mailed Ann his acceptance which was on the 5th of February.

Ann attempted to revoke the acceptance too late as she did it a day after he had emailed his acceptance even though she only received it on the 7th.

The date she received the acceptance is of no consequence because this falls under the Posting Rule. This rule in Common Law countries essentially states an agreement is made as soon as the letter is posted even if it never gets to it's destination.
