Stells [14]

Answer: The above is an example of a basic employment generating nonbasic employment.

Explanation: Basic employment is employment as a result of businesses that operate on a very large scale, and usually these businesses export their products outside the location where they are because they can more than meet the demand of that locality.

As seen in the question above, where fishing is the mainstay of the economy of Seattle. This means the fishing industry in Seattle can meet the demand of Seattle and still have commercial quantities for export.

A 13-year bond of a firm in severe financial distress has a coupon rate of 10% and sells for $930. The firm is currently renegot

adoni [48]

Answer:

Stated yield is 11.04%

expected yield is 5.78%

Explanation:

The expected yield to maturity can be computed using the rate formula in excel which is given below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay which is 13

pmt is the amount of coupon interest the bond pays which is $1000*10%=$100

pv is the current price of the bond which is $930

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(13,100,-930,1000)=11.04%

However the expected yield has the coupon interest reduced to one -half as calculated below:

=rate(13,100*0.5,-930,1000)=5.78%

Assuming a 12% annual interest rate, determine the present value of a five-period annual annuity of $3,500 under each of the fol

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

a. The first payment is received at the end of the first year, and interest is compounded annually.

present value = annual payment x PVIFA

annual payment = $3,500

PVIFA, 12%, 5 periods = 3.6048

present value = $12,616.80

b. The first payment is received at the beginning of the first year, and interest is compounded annually.

annual payment = $3,500

PVIF annuity due, 12%, 5 periods = 4.0373

present value = $14,130.55

c. The first payment is received at the end of the first year, and interest is compounded quarterly.

present value = annual payment x PVIFA

annual payment = $3,500

effective interest rate = 1.03⁴ - 1 = 12.55%

PVIFA, 12.55%, 5 periods = 3.5562

present value = $12,446.70

The table below presents the average and marginal cost of producing cheeseburgers per hour at a roadside diner.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

a. At a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, the average total cost of production is falling and the marginal cost of cheeseburger production is rising.

b. At a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour, the average variable cost of production is rising and the average total cost of cheeseburger production is at a minimum.

Explanation:

a. At a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, the average total cost of production is falling and the marginal cost of cheeseburger production is rising.

From the table in the question, it can be observed that the average total cost of production at a quantity of 30 cheeseburgers per hour is higher than the average total cost of production at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, while the average total cost of production at a quantity of 50 cheeseburgers per hour is lower than the average total cost of production at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour. This implies that at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, the average total cost of production is falling.

Also from the table in the question, it can be observed that the marginal cost of production at a quantity of 30 cheeseburgers per hour is lower than the marginal cost of production at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, while the marginal cost of production at a quantity of 50 cheeseburgers per hour is higher than the marginal cost of production at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour. This implies that at a quantity of 40 cheeseburgers per hour, the marginal cost of production is rising.

b. At a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour, the average variable cost of production is rising and the average total cost of cheeseburger production is at a minimum.

From the table in the question, it can be observed that the average variable cost of production at a quantity of 50 cheeseburgers per hour is lower than the average variable cost of production at a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour, while the average variable cost of production at a quantity of 70 cheeseburgers per hour is higher than the average variable cost of production at a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour. This implies that at a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour, the average variable cost of production is rising.

Also from the table in the question, it can be observed that the average total cost of cheeseburger production at quantities of 50 and 60 cheeseburgers per hour are equal and the lowest on the table, this implies that the average total cost of cheeseburger production is at a minimum at a quantity of 60 cheeseburgers per hour.
