The Bay of Pigs Invasion was a foreign policy embarrassment for the Kennedy Administration.
When John Kennedy assumed the presidency after Dwight Eisenhower, he was faced with the pressure to act on Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's growing relationship with the Soviet Union (yet another of US' formidable enemies).
His senior advisers urged him to authorize the attack on Cuba and initiate a movement to overthrow Fidel Castro. This played on Kennedy's foreign principle which is for Democratic countries such the US to show a strong force against dictatorships like Castro's. In April 1961, the invasion at the Bay of Pigs failed extremely. Castro was quick to mobilize his militia to counter Kennedy's botched plan. Aside from this, Kennedy made some worst decisions that nailed the coffin shut. Thus the Kennedy Administration suffered a lot of damage due to this failure.

Windsor, Inc. uses a periodic inventory system. Details for the inventory account for the month of January 2022 are as follows:
Hoochie [10]

Based on the cost of the inventory to Windsor Inc, and the FIFO method, the gross profit for the month is C. $1,520

<h3>What is Windsor's gross profit?</h3>

FIFO means that the earlier goods are sold first.

210 units were left on hand which means that none of the Purchase on the 28th of January was sold.

The 15th Janaury purchase sold:
= 130 - (210 - 130)

= 50 units

The sales revenue is therefore:

= (260 + 50) x 9

= $2,790

The cost is:

= (260 x 4) + (50 x 4.60)

= $1,270

Gross profit is:

= 2,790 - 1,270

= $1,520

The National Income and Product Accounts identity states:__________A) Expenditure  Production  Income.B) Production  Expendit
zaharov [31]

Answer:

I. National Income Accounting:

National income accounts are an accounting framework is useful in measuring economic activity.

A. Three approaches—all produce the same measurement of the production of the economy.

1. product approach: how much output is produced

2. income approach: how much income is created by production

3. Expenditure approach: how much purchasers spend

B. Why all three approaches are the same: Assumes no unsold goods (at this point) then the market values of goods and services produced must equal the amount buyers spend to purchase them (product approach=expenditure approach). What the seller receives (income) must equal what is spent (expenditure).

II. Gross Domestic Product (GDP)

A. GDP vs. GNP

GNP= output produced by domestically owned factors or production. (By our people)

GDP= includes production produced by foreign owed factors of production within the countries border and excludes domestically owned production in foreign countries. (On our soil)

1. GDP = GNP – net factor payment from abroad (NFP)

2. How big is the difference?

B. Product approach: The market value of all final goods and services produced within a nation during a fixed period of time.

1. Market value: allows comparison between different goods. Has some problems – ignores some goods. underground economy, and government services.

2. Final goods and service: Treatment of inventories; Capital goods; Avoids double counting; Value added.

3. New production: Ignores goods produced in previous periods

C. Expenditure approach: Total spending on final goods and services produced within a nation during a specified period of time.

1. Income expenditure identity and four categories of spending: Consumption (C), Investment (I), government purchases of goods and services (G) and net exports (NX)

Y = C + I + C + NX

2. Consumption(C): Spending by domestic households on final goods and services

a. Consumer durable goods: Long lasting goods

b. Nondurable goods used up quickly

c. Services

3. Investment (I): Spending on new capital goods by business

a. Business fixed investment

b. Residential fixed investment

c. Inventory investment: Changes in the amount of unsold goods, goods in progress and new materials

4. Government purchases of goods and services (G):

a. State and local vs. Federal spending

b. Transfers and interest payments on debt are not counted. They are counted in total government expenditure which is not the same as government purchases of goods and services.

5. Net exports (NX): exports minus imports

a. Need to subtract imports since they are counted in C. I and G can add goods produced within the country purchased by foreign interests (exports).

D. Income approach adds up income received by producers, including profits and taxes paid to the government

1. Income generated by production

a. National income =

compensation of employees

+ proprietors income

+ rental income of persons

+ corporate profits

+ net interest

+ taxes on production

+ business transfers

+ surplus of gov enterprises

b. National income + statistical discrepancy = Net National Product (NNP)

Note: This changed a couple years ago. If you have an old addition, you may see the indirect business tax. It is no long used in this equation!

c. NNP + depreciation = GNP

d. GNP – NFP = GDP

2. Income of private sector and government

a. Private disposable income = income of private sector = private sector income earned at home (Y or GDP) and abroad (NFP) + payments from the government sector (transfers TR and interest on debt INT) – taxes paid to government (T) = Y + NFP + TR + INT – T

b. Government net income = T- TR – INT

III. Saving and Wealth

A. Wealth Difference between assets and liabilities

B. Measures of aggregate savings

1. Saving = current income – current spending; saving rate = saving/current income

2. Private saving (Spvt) Spvt = Y + NFP – T + TR + INT – C

3. Government Saving (Sgovt) Sgovt = T – TR- INT – G

a. Government saving = Government budget surplus (deficit = -Sgovt)

4. National Saving= private saving + government saving

S = Spvt + Sgovt = Y + NFP - C – G = GNP - C – G

C. The uses of private saving

1. S = I + (NX + NFP) = I + CA

CA = NX + NFP = current account balance

2. The use of savings identity

Spvt = I – Sgovt + CA

If the budget deficit increases one or a combination of the following happen

1) private saving must rise

2) investment must fall

3) the current account balance must fall

IV. Prices Indexes, Inflation and Interest Rates

A. Nominal vs. Real variables

Nominal Variables – Measures the economic variable in terms of the current market value.

Real Variable—Measure the variable valued at the prices in a base year.

B. Real vs. Nominal: Calculation the differences

Examples Small country only produces base balls and baseball bats
