Answer:

-$475,000

Explanation:

Total revenue = Baskets of peaches × Price

                       = 100,000 × $3

                       = $300,000

Explicit cost:

= Rent equipment + wages

= $100,000 + $100,000

= $200,000

Implicit cost:

= Land × Interest + salesman earned

=  $1,000,000 × 0.55 + $25,000

= $575,000

Total cost = Explicit cost: + Implicit cost

                = $200,000 + $575,000

                = $775,000

Economic profit = Total revenue - Total cost

                           = $300,000 - $775,000

                           = -$475,000

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The options are not correct:

Dr costs of good sold  $15,800

Cr inventory                                   $15,800

Explanation:

The 4,400 units sold consist of the 2,400 units purchased on 1 January at $4.00 per unit and the balance of 2,000 units from the purchase made on January 12 at $3.10 per unit

cost of goods sold=(2,400*$4)+(2,000*$3.10)=$15,800

The cost of goods sold is $15,800 ,neither is it $11,900 nor $11,800

The appropriate entries is to debit costs of good sold with $15,800 while merchandise inventory is credited with $15,800

Suppose that, in an attempt to combat severe unemployment, the government decides to increase the amount of money in circulation
ELEN [110]

Answer:

increases

higher

more

lower

lower

Explanation:

If the money supply is increased. individuals would have more money and consumption would increase. Increase in consumption would lead to a rise in demand.

when demand exceeds supply, prices rise,

When there is a rise in price, it encourages producers to increase production in order to increase their profit margin.

In order to expand production, more factors of production would be needed. So, more labour would be hired. thus, unemployment would fall.

it can be seen that higher inflation lowers unemployment

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

EAW = -$17,545.71

Explanation:

initial investment = $200,000

cash inflows;

  • Year 1 = $33,000
  • Year 2 = $44,000
  • Year 3 = $55,000
  • Year 4 = $66,000
  • Year 5 = $77,000
  • Year 6 = $88,000
  • Year 7 = $99,000
  • Year 8 = $110,000
  • Year 9 = $132,000

cash outflows:

  • Year 1 = $20,000
  • Year 2 = $30,000
  • Year 3 = $40,000
  • Year 4 = $50,000
  • Year 5 = $60,000
  • Year 6 = $70,000
  • Year 7 = $80,000
  • Year 8 = $90,000
  • Year 9 = $100,000

EAW = equivalent annual worth = equivalent annual benefits - equivalent annual costs

to determine the EAB we must first find the PV of the cash inflows using a financial calculator = $408,348.84

EAB = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($408,348.84 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $70,905.91

to determine the EAC we must first find the PV of the cash outflows (including initial outlay) using a financial calculator = $509,395

EAC = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($509,395 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $88,451.62

EAW = $70,905.91 - $88,451.62 = -$17,545.71
