Answer: C. Decrease government spending and increase taxes

Explanation:

The current GDP of this economy is $670 billion and this figure is higher than the $620 billion that the economy should be at.

This means that the economy is in danger of overheating and needs to be adjusted.

To do this one can use option C.

By REDUCING Government Expenditure, government purchases will drop which will aid in reducing the GDP.

By also INCREASING Taxes, the amount of money left for people to consume after they pay their taxes is less so that REDUCES Consumption as well leading to a smaller GDP.

Doing this is known as a CONTRACTIONARY FISCAL POLICY.

Answer:

$ 5.34

Explanation:

Calculation for cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for September

First step is to find the Equivalent units of production

To complete beginning work-in-process:

Conversion 12,000

[15,000 units × (100%-20% )]

Units started and completed 65,000

(89,000-24,000)

Ending work-in-process

Conversion 21,600

(24,000 units × 90%)

Equivalent units of production 98,600

Second step is to calculate the Cost per equivalent unit using this formula

Cost per equivalent unit =Cost added during the period ÷Equivalent units of production

Let plug in the formula

Cost per equivalent unit = $526,524÷98,600

Cost per equivalent unit = $5.34

Therefore The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for September is closest to $ 5.34

Note whether the following phenomena would be consistent with or a violation of the efficient market hypothesis.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

D) Stock prices of companies that announce increased earning in January tend to outperform the market in February.    

Explanation:

The above is consistent with the Efficient Market Hypothesis. All others are a direct contravention.

<em>The efficient market hypothesis (EMH), also known as the efficient market theory, is a hypothesis that states that the prices of shares contain all information and that consistent alpha generation is impossible.</em>

According to the hypothesis, stocks always trade at their fair value on exchanges, making it impossible for investors to purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks for inflated prices.

This means that it should not be possible to outperform the overall market through professional stock selection or market timing.

The only way according to EMH that an investor can obtain better returns is by purchasing riskier investments.  

By implication, this also means that it is not possible to "beat the market" consistently on a risk-adjusted basis since market prices should only react to new information.  

You would note that in the option D, earning (which is a key driver for demand of stock) is announced in one month. The natural reaction would be for the demand for that stock to surge in the next month.
