Answer:
The amount Laramie should record the purchase of land is <u>$6.2 million</u>.
Explanation:
The costs of a fixed asset refer to the purchase price and other relevant costs which are incurred in order to the location and working condition required to operate the fixed asset in way that it is intended.
The other relevant costs that are added to the purchase price to arrive at the cost of the fixed assets include professional fees, non-refundable taxes or levies, and among others.
If any trade discount or rebate is given, this will be deducted from the purchase price to arrive at the cost.
Any interest required to be paid on the delayed payment in order to reflects the time value of money are not part of the cost of the asset but expensed in the year they are incurred.
From the question, the land acquired is a fixed asset. Based on the explanation above, the total cost of the asset is $6.2 million. The interest from the 6% interest rate on the remaining $5 million will be part of the cost of the land but it will be expensed in the year they are incurred.
Therefore, the amount Laramie should record the purchase of land is <u>$6.2 million</u>.
Answer:
The correct option is (b)
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the foreign currency that original sold at the market is shown below:
= (Forward rate to Jan 15 - Spot rate) × paymen made
= ($0.00089 - $0.00082 ) × 20 million
= $0.00007 × 20,000,000
= $1,400 premium
hence, the foreign currency that originally sold at the market is $1,400 premium
Therefore the correct option is (b)
Answer:
A. Movement on the PPC
B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC
C. Less Concavity of PPC
Explanation:
Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).
- It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
- It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
- Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.
a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)
b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.
c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.
Answer:
Elastic demand
Unit elastic demand
Inelastic demand
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price.
Denand is elastic if when price is increased, the quantity demanded changes more than the increase in price. Quanitity demanded is more sensitive to changes in price.
If price is increased, the quantity demanded falls and as a result the total revenue earned by sellers falls.
The elasticity of demand is usually greater than 1 when demand is elastic.
Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional change on quantity demanded. The coefficient of elasticity is equal to one.
If price is increased, the quantity demanded changes by the same proportion so there's no change in total revenue of sellers.
Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.
Coefficient of elasticity is usually less than one.
If price is increased, there is little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result the revenue earned by sellers increase.

<span>A volcano that expels highly viscous magma is a greater threat to life and property because it is more explosives and thus is more difficult or impossible to predict. When there are more explosives happen, the damage that created to nearby life and poverty will also be increased. Depending on the amount of magma that being erupted, it might take more than ten years for the soil to have good enough composition for plants to grow.</span>
