Please find the detailed explanations and calculations as below:

Denote x is the number of years that needs to be found.

For East Vice City to catch up to the real per capita GDP of North Metropolania, we have the equation to show the real GDP of North Metropolania equals to that of East Vice City after x years as followed:

6,000 x 1.0233^x = 1,500 x 1.07^x <=> 4 x 1.0233^x = 1.07^x <=> x = 36 years

Elis [28]

Solution :

1.

The income from renting his showroom that Paolo would receive if he allowed to rent his showroom is a Implicit cost as this is a cost which will not be paid in actual.

The wages as well as the utility bills paid by Paolo is an example of explicit cost as this cost would be paid in actual for the businesses and are added in accounting.

The wholesale amount that Paolo pays for the pianos to the manufacturer is an explicit cost and is aid in actual to the manufacturer.

The salary that Paolo could have earned if he choses to be an accountant will be an implicit cost as this cost is not paid in actual.

2. Paolo's accounting profit can be calculated by :

  Accounting profit = revenue - explicit cost

                                 = 851,000 - 476,000 - 281,000

                                = $ 94,000

3. Paolo's economic profit is :

   Economic profit = accounting profit - implicit profit

                             = 94,000 - 34,000 - 71,000

                              = -11,000

If the reserve requirement is 5 percent, a bank desires to hold no excess reserves, and it receives a new deposit of $10, then t
jekas [21]

Answer:

c. will be able to make new loans up to a maximum of $9.50

Explanation:

If the reserve requirement is 5% it means that the bank is required to reserve(not loan out) 5% of it's reserves so in this case the bank is required to 5% of 10 (0.05*10) $0.50 as reserves and can loan out $9.50 (10-0.50). As the bank has no desire to hold on to excess reserves we can be sure that it will only hold 0.50 as reserve as it is required and loan out $9.50. So statement c is correct.

Statement A is incorrect because the bank does not need to increase required reserve by $10 but by just $0.50.

Statement B is incorrect a deposit of $10 cannot increase the total reserve by $10.50 as it is impossible mathematically.

Statement d is incorrect because 2 of the 3 statements are incorrect therefore all of the above statements cant be correct.

On January 1, a company issues bonds dated January 1 with a par value of $250,000. The bonds mature in 5 years. The contract rat
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer and Explanation:

Given:

Sales price of bond = $260,148

Issue price of bond = $250,000

Total premium on bond = $260,148 - $250,000

Total premium on bond = $10,148

Number of year = 5 year = 5 × 2 semi-annual = 10

Per period payment = Total premium on bond / 10

Per period payment = $10,148 / 10 = $1,014.80

Cash paid = $250,000 × (9%/2) = $11,250
