Answer:
No, we can’t say
Explanation:
In this question, we are asked to decide if we can say that Guatemala’s standard of living grew more than that of the US’ standard of living between the years 1993 and 2003 given the pointers in the question.
We cannot say that this is correct because of the following reasons;
As observed from the question, the US growth rate was calculated between the years 1948-2003, which is indicative of a 55 year span. Now, comparing this with that of Guatemala, we can see that the span here is just 10 years I.e from 1993 to 2003.
Also, we were not provided with the population growth rate in both countries and this makes it difficult to judge which of the two countries have a better growth in terms of standard of living
Answer:
What is the Value of Bank Deposits?
bank deposits = bank reserves / required reserve ratio = $200 / 20% = $1,000
What is the Money Supply?
money supply = bank deposits + currency held by the public = $1,000 + $1,00 = $2,000
Suppose that the Fed sells $50 worth of bonds in an "open market sale." Assuming that the public does not wish to change the amount of currency it holds, what is the new money supply after this open market purchase?
if the FED sells $50 worth of bonds, money supply will decrease by $50 x (1 / 20%) = $50 x 5 = $250
total money supply = $2,000 - $250 = $1,750
Answer:
profit margin = 23.33%
Explanation:
profit margin = net profit / net sales
- net profit = $2,800
- net sales = $12,000
profit margin = $2,800 / $12,000 = 0.233333 = 23.33%
The profit margin is a profitability ratio used to compare how many cents different companies are able to make from selling $1. Different companies have different sales levels, but we can group companies by industries and then compare them in order to determine which ones are more efficient at generating income. E.g. Company A sells $100 million but only makes $2 million in profits per year (PM = 2%), and it is much less efficient than Company B that sells $10 million and makes $1 in profits (PM = 10%). Company A's costs are too high compared to Company B's costs.
Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct Option: Other assets can also be used to make transactions to buy goods and services.
M1 = Currency with public + check-able/Demand deposits + other deposits with RBI
It includes more than just currency with public because there are some other assets as well which are highly liquefied and helps people in buying goods and services.
Check able deposits is one of the component of M1, other than currency with public. People can withdraw these deposits at any point of time which people generally used make transactions for buying goods and services.
Answer:
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
$15,000 for factory managers
$18,000 for financial managers
$42,000 for company executives.
$98,000 for factory workers
$64,000 for office workers.
To calculate the labor cost we need to separate between indirect and direct labor:
Indirect labor:
Factory managers (manufactury overhead)= 15,000
Direct labor:
Factory workers= 98,000
Total labor cost= $113,000
