Answer:

Explanation:

1. The formula to compute the profitability index is shown below:

Profitability index = Net present value ÷ investment required

For Proposal A, it would be

=  $331,300 ÷ $790,000

= 0.42

For Proposal B, it would be

=  $48,300 ÷ $120,000

= 0.40

For Proposal C, it would be

=  $62,000 ÷ $120,000

= 0.52

For Proposal D, it would be

=  $607,200 ÷ $1,820,000

= 0.33

2. The proposal rank preference is shown below:

Proposal     Profitability index    Rank

A                  0.42                         Second

B                  0.40                         Third

C                  0.52                         First

D                  0.33                          fourth

So, it would be C, A, B and D

The cob Douglas production function is given by Q(K,L)=AK^1.4*L^1.6
Alexeev081 [22]

Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

Q(K,L)=AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } .

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

Q(tK,tL)=A(tK)^{1.4} (tL)^ {1.6 } .

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

Q(tK,tL)=At^{1.4}K^{1.4} t^ {1.6 }L^ {1.6 } .

This implies that:

Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4} \times t^ {1.6 }(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4 + 1.6}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Simplify the exponent of t to get;

Q(tK,tL)=t^{3}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3

Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L}=3AK^{1.4}L^{1.6}

Verifying from the left:

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =K(1.4AK^{0.4} L^{1.6}) + L(1.6AK^{1.4} L^{0.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =1.4(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6}) + 1.6(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =(1.4 +  1.6)(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =3(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})

"Which of the following is correct?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

The nominal GDP is equal to the real GDP in the base year, that's why GDP deflator in the base year is equal to 100.

GDP deflator is calculated as the nominal GDP divided by the real GDP multiply by 100. It is shown as:

GDP deflator = \frac{Nominal\ GDP}{Real\ GDP} \times 100

GDP deflator would be used as the conversion factor that transformed the real GDP into nominal GDP.

David saves money from his teaching job to buy a new boat when he retires in 20 years. The boat will cost $30,000. He has $12,00
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The main advantage of a compound interest account is that the interest that you earn also earns interest, so the total amount of earned interest increases.

For example, a $10,000 account earning simple interest at a 4% rate will earn $4,000 in ten years. While the same amount in a compound interest account will earn $4,802.
