Answer:
You will need to have $ 55,006.94
Explanation:
We need first to consider the following details according to the problem
We have a Annuity amount of $ 2900, a Rate(r)= 0.51%, and a Time(n)= 5 years (or 20 quarters )
.
To reach to the money that we would need to have in the bank today to meet the expense over the next four years we use the following formula:
PVA= annuity amount × [1 - (1 / (1 + r)n)] / r
PVA= $ 2900 x[ 1-{ 1/(1+0.0051)20)]/0.0051
PVA= $ 55,006.94
Answer:
confused
Explanation:
The goods whose demand decreases in the market when the consumer income rises are known as inferior goods.
The goods whose demand increases in the market when the consumer income rises are known as normal goods.
Thus, the reasoning of the student is confused as the classification of the goods on the basics of normal or inferior depends on response of the demand when there is a change in consumer's income. Thus, the student's own perception about such classification is confused.
Answer:
d. the supply curve of new houses would shift rightward, since builders would be willing to produce and sell more houses at each given price.
Place more oil on the market this year, shifting the curve rightward.
Explanation:
1. In the given scenario the government is willing to give home-construction companies $10,000 for every house that they build.
This will result in more willingness on the part of the construction companies to build more houses.
More houses built means more income coming in from the government.
Therefore the supply curve of home building will shift to the right.
2. When oil producers expect prices of oil to increase in the next year, there is a need to control oil prices by increasing availability of oil in the market.
Increase in price results from a scarcity of oil. So to mitigate this excess oil is supplied to control price increase.
This action will shift the curve rightward.
Answer: 16 units more than social optimum.
DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96
Explanation:
Q=1200 - 4P and Q=-240 + 2P
In a free market quantity demand =quantity supplied
1200 -4P = -240 +2P
P =240
Sub P
Q* = 240
Socially optimal quantity is
Marginal social benefit (MSC)= marginal social cost(MSC), including external damage =MEC
MPC= marginal private cost =inverse of supply function
MPC = (1/2)*Q + 120
MEC=12
MSC =(MPC +MEC) = (1/2)Q +120 +12
MSC= MPB where MPB is marginal private benefit = inverse of demand functn
MPB = 300 -(1/4)Q
(1/2)Q + 132 =300 - (1/4)Q
Q° = 224
Difference btw Q* & Q° = 16 units more than social optimum.
DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96
