Answer:
real interest rate = -3.08%
Explanation:
real interest rate = nominal rate - inflation rate
- nominal interest rate = [($562/$509) - 1] x 100 = 10.41%
- inflation rate = [(143/126) - 1] x 100 = 13.49%
real interest rate = 10.41% - 13.49% = -3.08%
since the real interest rate is negative, the investor actually lost money in real dollars. This means that the amount of goods that the investor could purchase before making the investment is higher than the amount of goods he/she will be able to buy after the investment.
Answer:
C) 410 tubs
Explanation:
the contribution margin for sinks is $70 (= $150 - $80) and the contribution margin for tubs is $150 (= $600 - $450).
the molding equipment has 4,050 hours of capacity per year, so it can produce either 2,025 sinks or 810 tubs.
we can determine what product is more profitable if we determine a contribution margin per molding equipment usage ratio:
- sink = $70 / 2 hours = $35 per hour
- tub = $150 / 5 hours = $30 per hour
It is more profitable to produce sinks than tubs, but we can sell only 1,000 sinks per year, so even after we product the 1,000 sinks we will have spare molding equipment capacity which we can use to produce tubs.
The spare molding equipment capacity after producing sinks = 4,050 total hours - 2,000 hours used to produce sinks = 2,050 spare molding hours
We can produce 410 tubs (= 2,050 molding hours / 5 hours per tub)
Answer:
6,000
Explanation:
The expected value from this investment can be calculated by possible values for random variables by multiplying them by their probability
DATA
Strong = 30,000 , probability = 30%
Moderate = 10,000 , probability = 60%
Weak = -30,000 , probability = 10%
Calculation
Expected profit = Values x Probability
Expected profit = (30,000 x 30%) + (10,000 x 60%) + ( 30,000 x 10%)
Expected profit = 6,000 + 6,000 -6,000
Expected profit = 6,000
Answer:
An increase in supply, all other things unchanged, will cause the equilibrium price to fall; quantity demanded will increase. A decrease in supply will cause the equilibrium price to rise; quantity demanded will decrease.
