There is NO general rule for the percentage of debt to gdp that will make a government bond yields spike

Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago

Answer:

There is no general debt-to-gdp ratio rule because a bond yield depends on many other factors, not only on debt-to-gdp ratio.

For example, the United States has a very high debt-to-gdp ratio of over 100%, but the US bond is considered to be the safest bond in the market, has a high credit rating of AA+ according to Firtch, Moody's and S&P, and is a cheap bond because interest rates in the US are low, so the coupon payments are low as well.

The yield to maturity of a 10 year US bond is around 2%. Therefore, what all this information is telling us, is that even if debt-to-gdp ratio in the US continues to increase, the US bonds yields will probably continue to be stable. They will not spike because the debt-to-gdp ratio increases.

Suppose that the price of basketball tickets at your college is determined by market forces. Currently, the demand and supply sc
belka [17]

Answer:

a) see attached graph. There is nothing unusual with the supply curve, it is simply fixed. This happens to most services, e.g. there is a fixed number of hotel rooms available for rent, in the short run you cannot add more rooms per night if the demand increases. In order to increase the quantity supplied, you would need to build a larger hotel, or in this case, a larger stadium.

b) the equilibrium price is $8 and the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 tickets

c) if the college plans to increase enrollment, the demand might increase, leading to a higher equilibrium price, but the supply will remain the same until the stadium is expanded.

Explanation:

Price              Quantity Demanded (Qd)          Quantity Supplied (Qs)

$4                            10,000                                        8,000

$8                             8,000                                        8,000

$12                            6,000                                        8,000

$16                            4,000                                        8,000

$20                           2,000                                        8,000

In contrasting equity and efficiency, why do high-tech firms seem to treat their employees better (better wages, benefits, worki
shusha [124]

Answer:

High-tech firms are hiring expensive, sophisticated people who are in high demand compared to fast food franchises and treat them better to avoid losing them to other companies

Explanation:

High-tech firms are hiring expensive, sophisticated people who are in high demand. This brings about a better treatment of their employees because if they do not offer these amenities to employees, they would become employees of other high-tech companies. Individuals with low skill levels do not get high salaries or benefits. They are not in as high demand as highly skilled workers. It is efficient, but many would argue that it is not fair.

fomenos

Answer:

B. No effect on net income; no effect on total assets

Explanation:

When you write off bad debt, the journal entry is:

Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ

    Cr Accounts receivable XYZ

This actually had no effect on the income statement, since the allowance account is already a contra asset account.

When the write off is reversed because the customer paid the debt, the journal entry is:

Dr Accounts receivable XYZ

    Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ

Dr Cash XYZ

    Cr Accounts receivable XYZ

Again, since the company is using the allowance method, there is no real effect on the income statement nor total assets in the balance sheet.

Katherine explains that she did tell the truth and that there was not available funding for employee wage increases. Alisa most
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Katherine was lying and/or hiding something

Explanation:

Alisa most likely decoded Katherine's explanation in such a way that she believed Katherine was lying and/or hiding something. This is because based on psychological studies, individuals tend to state that they are "telling the truth" and yet still provide no actual proof when they are lying. In this scenario, Katherine simply states that she is "telling the truth" but has not shown Alisa any financial reports or other valuable data that proves that there was not enough funding, which would be easy to provide if they actually existed.
