Answer:
Nominal GDP in year 1 = $16
Nominal GDP in year 2 = $25
Nominal GDP in year 3  = $36
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices 
Nominal GDP in year 1 = 4 x $4 = $16
Nominal GDP in year 2 = 5 x $5 = $25
Nominal GDP in year 3 = 6 x $6 = $36
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
D) all of the above
Explanation:
First find the present value for each alternative  using PV of perpetual cashflow formula;
PV = CF / rate
CF = 50
If rate= 5%;
PV = 50/0.05 = $1,000
 If rate = 2%;
PV = 50/0.02 = $2,500
With these two calculations, we see that;
-the bond price increased by $1,500
-you could sell this bond at a capital gain, meaning you can sell it a higher price that what you bought it for.
-at an interest rate of 2%, the speculative demand for money would increase
Hence , all these choices are correct!
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
A. $194, 035
Explanation:
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = Estimated total overheads / Estimated direct labor hours
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = $176,000 / 13,700
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = $12.85 /  direct labor hour
Actual Labor hours = 15,100 hours
Manufacturing overhead allocated = $12.85x 15,100
Manufacturing overhead allocated = $194,035
The correct option is A. $194, 035
