Answer:
$100 billion
Explanation:
Real GDP is currently = $13.55 trillion
Potential real GDP = $14.0 trillion
Gap = $500 billion
Government purchases multiplier = 5.0
Tax multiplier = 4.0
To increase aggregate demand by $500 billion, the required increase in government expenditure is:
= (1 ÷ government purchases multiplier) × change in aggregate demand
= (1 ÷ 5) × $500
= $100 billion
Therefore, the government expenditure need to be increased by $100 billion.
TRUE.
The labor-supply curve is affected by the trade-off between labor and leisure.
The opportunity cost of leisure depends on the wage rate, it increases and people supply more labor. Main factors determining the labor supply curve how desirable the work appears to its employees relative to the alternatives available in the market.
Other factors that encourages are government policies and procedures that are labor and trade effective or not. The quantity of workers trained for a particular job specifications. The number of workers in economy and the education required further.

Answer:
7.80 times
Explanation:
First of all we have to calculate the average inventory
Opening inventory= 159,000
Closing inventory= 200,000
Average inventory= (opening inventory+closing inventory)/2
= ( 159,000+200,000)/2
= 359,000/2
= 179,500
The next step is to find the merchandise inventory turnover which is calculated as
= Cost of goods/ Average inventory
Cost of goods= $1,400,000
Average inventory= 179,500
= 1,400,000/179,500
= 7.799 times
= 7.80 times (to 2 decimal places)
Hence the merchandise inventory was turned over 7.80 times in 2019
Firstly, you should calculate the prices of your market basket, which basically means multiply all the goods with their prices and then add them together in their respective years. This would give you $260, $440, $690 and $1200 in the years 2010 to 2013 respectively. (follow along by noting everything down)
We see that the base year is 2013, therefore if we want to calculate the inflation rate from 2010 to 2011, we have to calculate their price indices. We do this by dividing the maket basket of our chosen years by the market basket of the base year, therefore the price index of 2010 is $260/$1200, giving us 21.6. The price index of 2011 would be $440/$1200, giving us 36.6. To calculate the inflation rate, you find the difference between your two price indices and divide it by the former year, which would be 36.6 - 21.6 / 21.6 x 100, giving us the inflation rate of 69.2%.
Answer:
$7,514
Explanation:
Calculation for how Legion should report bond interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021
Using this formula
Bond interest expense=Bonds amount*Priced to yield percentage
Bond interest expense=$150,272*(10%/2)
Bond interest expense=$150,272*5%
Bond interest expense=$7,513.6
Bond interest expense=$7,514 Approximately
Therefore Legion should report bond interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 in the amount of $7,514
