Answer: 2 years

Explanation:

The payback period is the amount of time that is needed for the required cash inflow of a project to offset the initial cash outflow that the business offsets. The payback period is when the initial outlay of an investment is recovered. There are two different methods used to calculate payback period. We have the average method and the subtraction method.

In the above question, the payback period is solved as follows:

Labour cost decreases by 10% for each unit.

Therefore,

= $10 × 10%

= $10 × 0.1

= $1 per unit.

In order to recover $2000, the business needs to sell the following;

= 2000/1

= 2000units.

If Eric sells 1000 units per year of Emu, it will take:

2000/1000= 2years

In conclusion, the payback period of the investment is 2 years.

Suppose there is a large increase in the money supply in an economy that previously had low inflation. As a consequence, aggrega
hoa [83]

Answer:

It illustrates that the classical model of the price level best applies to economies with persistently high inflation.

Explanation:

When a very low inflation rate has been constant in an economy, and the money supply increases suddenly, in the short run that change will not immediately increase the inflation rate, but instead it will increase real output.

Classical economists argue that an increase in the money supply will immediately affect the inflation rate, but that theory applies mostly to economies that have a certain level of inflation. For example, for the past 12 years, European nations have been experiencing very low inflation rates, sometimes even negative rates. But during that same period, the European Central Bank has carried on a huge expansionary policy. It favored economic growth, although not as much as expected, but it didn't skyrocket inflation rate as the classical economy model predicted.
