Answer:

July 31

Shrinkage Expense $1,800    ($44,300 - $42,500)

Inventory  $1,800 Reflects the loss on inventory account.

Explanation:

When the company conduct a physical inventory of their merchandise, most of the time there are discrepancies between physical counts and books values, then it's necessary to reflect that in the accounting,

The correct way is to reflect the difference as a loss in there is less units of goods or as profit if there more units, it's mostly a loss because of damage or theft.

To this case the total amount on the books on July 31 was $44,300 but when the physical counts was made the result was a total value of $42,500, the difference of $1,800 it's reported as a loss to the company in the income statement.

Based on the economic data given, and the fact that the government is running a deficit, the equilibrium GDP will be 336.67.

If government spending is cut to balance the budget, the new level of GDP will be 321.67.

The effect of balancing the budget will be a decrease in GDP and a slower recovery from the recesssion.

<h3>What is the equilibrium GDP?</h3>

This is given by the variable "Y" so we can find the equilibrium GDP by solving for it:
C = 50 + .7(Y – T)

Y = C + I + G - XN

C = Y - I - G + XN

Solving gives:

Y - I - G + XN =  50 + .7(Y – T)

Y - 40 - 35 + 10 = 50 + 0.7Y - 14

Y - 0.7Y = 50 + 40 + 35 - 10 - 14

0.3Y = 101

Y = 101/0.3

= 336.67

<h3>What is the new GDP if government spending is cut?</h3>

Government spending will have to be cut to a size that would make it equal to taxes so government spending becomes 20.

New GDP becomes:

= C + I + G - XN

= ( 50 + .7(Y – T)) + 40 + 20 - 10

= 271.67 + 40 + 20 - 10

= 321.67
