Countries are interconnected today as never before. From eating foods from different countries to singing along to songs perform
Nuetrik [128]
This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings.  You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.

In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations.  However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.

I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in.  For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.

There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.

As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic.  We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.  

These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).

Josephine quits her $40,000 a year job to start her own business. She rents an office for $15,000 a year, pays wages and salarie
Sliva [168]

Answer:

b. $51,000 and $5000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Total Revenues = $140,000

Explicit cost = $15,000 + $50,000 + $4,000 + $20,000 = $89000

Implicit cost (opportunity cost) = $40,000 + $6,000 = $46,000

So, we can calculate accounting profit and economic profit by using following formula,

Accounting Profit = Total revenue - Explicit cost

By putting the value, we get

= $140,000 - $89,000

= $51,000

Economic Profit = Total revenue - Explicit cost - Implicit cost

By putting the value, we get

= $140,000 - $89,000 - $46,000

= $5,000

Crane Flight Services contributes $25 a week to Helen's retirement plan starting immediately. Assuming she works for Crane for a
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The value of this employee benefit today is closest to $17,758.66

Explanation:

Crane Flight services per week contribution C = $25

Discount rate per r=4.75%

Discount rate per week r= 4.75% / 52 =0.0913%

Total Payment N = $52 * 22 years = $1,144

Current value of employee benefit P = C*(1+r)*(1-(1+r)^-N)/r

P=25*(1+0.0913%)*(1-(1+0.0913%)^-1144)/0.0913%

P = 25 * (1.000913) * (1 - (1.000913)^-1144)/0.000913

P = 25 * (1.000913) * 1 - 0.3520453/0.000913

P = 25 * (1.000913) * 709.6985

P = 17758.661368

P = $17,758.66
