Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": an increase in the target rate of inflation.
Explanation:
According to the Aggregate Demand Formula (<em>Consumer Spending + Investment Spending + Government Spending + Exports-Imports</em>) changes in its curve will be caused by changes in the inflation rate. The fact that <em>the target increases</em> will produce the interest rate to decrease and, as a result, the output will move in the opposite direction.
Answer:
D 0.60.
Explanation:
Elasticity of Supply measure the responsiveness of supply against the change in price of the product.
Using mid point method
Change in Quantity = ( S2 - S1 ) / [ ( S2 + S1 )/2 ]
Change in Quantity = ( 30 - 20 ) / [ ( 30 + 20 )/2 ]
Change in Quantity = 10 / 25
Change in Quantity = 0.4
Change in price = ( P2 - P1 ) / [ ( P2 + P1 )/2 ]
Change in price = ( $20 - $10 ) / [ ( $20 + $10 )/2 ]
Change in price = $10 / $15
Change in price = 0.67
Elasticity of Supply = Change in Quantity / Change in Price
Elasticity of Supply = 0.4 / 0.67
Elasticity of Supply = 0.597 = 0.60
It depend on the price change if it increases sales will go down and demand will go down if it decreases sales go up demand goes up
Answer: a. 80% b. $30960
Explanation:
a. What is the buildingís current occupancy rate?
Occupancy rate can be calculated as:
= (Area of the space occupied / total area of the space) × 100
We.need to calculate the area of the space occupied which will be:
= 35,000+13,000
= 48,000 Sq.Ft
Therefore, Occupancy Rate:
= (48,000 / 60,000) × 100
= 80%
b. If the annual expense for utilities is $2.15/sf and utilities are 30% fixed, what is the utility expense based on the occupancy rate?
Total area of utilities will be:
= 30% × 48,000
= 0.3 × 48,000
= 14,400 Sq.Ft
Annual utility expense per Sq.Ft = $2.15
Therefore, total annual expense of utility will be:
= 2.15 × 14,400
= $30,960
Answer:
The answer is D) informal constraints increasing uncertainty for managers and firms in situations where formal constraints are unclear.
Explanation:
When you don´t have formal restraints and the same rules that apply for all, uncertainty among managers and their firms will increase.
This is a clear example of corruption taking place in a country where formal institutions or governments have collapsed or have been overthrown and the "new leaders" benefit from the situation. In this case the companies or firms which are "friendly" to the new government will flourish because no formal institutions or constraints remain. Instead they are replaced by informal constraints setup to favor specific firms and companies. That means that the "new leaders" may establish new rules for the companies or firms to follow at their will in order to favor whoever they want.
This may benefit the "new leaders" and their "friends" but it hurts all the other companies and firms. In order for a company to keep on doing business as usual, or get a new contract or license, it will probably need to become friends with the new regime and that usually means payments and other types of bribes.
