Answer:
1. The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the <u>value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year</u> using <u>this year's prices </u>by the <u>value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year </u>using <u>the base year's prices</u> and multiplying by 100.
This is why the formula for the GDP deflator is = GDP by year n prices/ GDP by base year prices.
2. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services<u> bought by consumers. </u>

Explanation:
Answer:
How much money will you need to have at the moment you retire?
How much money do you need to save every year before retirement?
Explanation:
we have to first determine the amount of money you need to finance your retirement distributions:
using the annuity due present value formula, PV = annuity payment x annuity due factor (PV, 8%, n = 40)
PV = $100,000 x 12.87858 = $1,287,858
now we must use the ordinary annuity future value formula, FV = annuity payment x annuity factor (FV, 8%, n = 40)
annuity payment = FV / annuity factor = $1,287,858 / 259.057 = $4,971.33
Answer:
C. $9.50 per direct labor-hour
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)
where,
Total estimated manufacturing overhead equals to
= Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost + Direct labor hours × variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour
= $497,000 + 70,000 × $2.40
= $497,000 + $168,000
= $665,000
And, the direct labor-hours is 70,000
So the rate is equal to
= $665,000 ÷ 70,000
= $9.5 per direct labor-hour
