Answer:

B. A stationary state in which growth will cease.

Explanation:

Malthus Thomas was a British economist that argued against the utopianism that the human race was believed to be tilting towards in his time. He argued that the every increasing human population that was seen as the happiness of a country will bring the economy to a shut down. He argued that available farmlands which is fixed will not be able to meet up with the ever increasing human population, stating that human population increases geometrically while food production from the fixed amount of farmlands increases arithmetically thus producing a stationary state in which growth will cease.

He was opined that at the end, human population will reach a point where they will not be able to produce enough food for themselves. However, his ideology has been criticized and disproved by other economists citing technology advancement and migration.

Answer:

a stationary state in which growth will cease.

Explanation:

According to Limit to Growth by Malthus, when human population continues to grow and available land is fixed , it will result in a stationary state in which growth will cease.

Land is a finite resource that is subject to depletion. As the human population increases it uses more of the land resources till it is depleted. Then there will be a state when growth will cease since there are no resources to support population increase.

For beginning real-estate investors what are some advantages of REITs rather than direct purchase of property?
amid [387]
REITs keep you liquid and may be more cost efficient. Entering in a REIT also costs lower, and an individual can invest in a fund for less than 1,000 USD. It's kind of like buying into a stock too, in a sense that you can sell your REIT shares at your leisure. 

On one hand, direct real estate investment gives you more power over your finances as there is no fund manager - you are the one in charge and you decide who can rent and live in your property. Some say that investment returns are also bigger should you go for direct real estate. However, it should be noted that you're putting in a bigger amount (roughly upwards 100,000 USD - which few people may be ready to shell out) just to get started on direct property investment versus about USD 1,000 into REIT. 

At the end of the day, it's up to the investor to decide what sort of risk you're comfortable with.

inventory Turnover and Days' Sales in Inventory The following financial statement data for years ending December 31 for Holland
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

                                            Year 2014           Year 2013

a) Inventory Turnover ratio 3.4 times  and   3.1 times

b) Number of days' sales in inventory 107.3 days and  117.7 days

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

As we know that

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory

where,

Average inventory

= (Beginning inventory + ending inventory) ÷ 2

For Year 20Y4 :

Average inventory = ($359,160 + $516,840 ) ÷2

= $438,000

And, the cost of goods sold is $1,489,200

So,

Inventory Turnover ratio

= $1,489,200 ÷ $438,000

= 3.4 times

For Year 20Y3 :

Average inventory = ($251,120 + $359,160) ÷ 2

= $305,140

And, the cost of goods sold is $945,934

So,

Inventory Turnover ratio

= $945,934 ÷ $305,140

= 3.1 times

Now

Number of days' sales in inventory = Number of days in a year ÷ Inventory Turnover ratio

For 20Y4

= 365 days ÷ 3.4

= 107.3 days

For 20Y3

= 365 days ÷ 3.1

= 117.7 days

Basically we applied the above formulas
