Answer:

Budget deficit / Fiscal deficit

Explanation:

At the start of the year, every government prepares a budget e.g. all sources of revenue (direct taxes, indirect taxes, aids etc) and projected expenses are also mentioned (development of society, defense etc.).

When a government spends more than its revenue from taxes so it means that government is running a budget deficit or a fiscal deficit which are covered through fiscal measures by government e.g. increasing taxes or reducing public spending.

Discuss how either good or poor quality affects you personally as a customer. Give specific examples and describe an experience

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Quality is the perhaps the most desired thing in a good or service, however, sometimes, as customers, we have to compromise on quality for a cheaper price.

Personally, I look for quality when I buy a laptop. I have had four laptos in my life. Two of those laptops were HP, and the two other were Lenovo.

I had a good experience with my first HP laptop, so I bought another one years later. That second HP had many technical issues only a few months after the purchase, and a year later I ended up buyina new Lenovo laptop.

That first Lenovo lasted for over 4 years until I replaced it for a new one.

In this case, the lack of quality I have personally experienced with HP has made me ditch the brand altogether.

In 1896, the first Green Jacket Golf Championship was held. The winner’s prize money was $160. In 2015, the winner’s check was $

Talja [164]

Answer:

r = 0.080528395 = 8.05%

Winner's Prize at 2044: $ 15,215,114.02

Explanation:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 160

Amount 1,610,000

time: 2015 - 1896 = 119

$160 \: (1+ r)^{119} = 1,610,000\\ r = \sqrt[119]{1,610,000 / 160} -1$

r = 0.080528395

If the same rate for the winner's prize is being keep by 2044 the winner will get:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 1,610,000.00

time 29.00 (2044 - 2015)

rate 0.08053

$1610000 \: (1+ 0.0805283946683808)^{29} = Amount$

Amount 15,215,114.02

You are set to receive an annual payment of $12,100 per year for the next 17 years. Assume the interest rate is 7 percent. How m

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The difference in value is worth $8,269 more in money.

Explanation:

Case 1. Payments are made at the end of each year

So here, we will use the annuity formula for computing the present value of payments that we are receiving at the end of each year.

Here

Annual Cash flow is $12,100

Interest Rate "r" is 7%

And

Number of Payments "n" will be 17

Present Value = Cash flow * [1 - 1 / (1+r)^n] / r

By putting values, we have:

Present Value = $12,100 * [1 - 1 / (1 + 7%)^17] / 7%

Present Value = $12,100 * 9.763223

Present Value = $118,135

Now

Cash 2. Payments are arising at the start of each year

Just like the case above, we will use the annuity formula for computing the present value of payments that we are receiving at the start of each year. The first payment will be at worth the same because it is received in today's price.

Present Value = Cash flow + Cash flow * [1 - 1 / (1+r)^n] / r

So by putting values, that were used in case 1, we have:

Present Value = $12,100 + $12,100 * (1 - (1/1.07)^16) / 0.07

Present Value = $12,100 + $12,100 * 9.446649

Present Value = $126,404

Difference in Present Value = PV of Case 1 - PV of Case 2

= $126,404 - $118,135 = $8,269

The difference in value is worth $8,269 more in money.

Since the costs of producing an intermediate product do not change regardless of whether the intermediate product is sold or pro

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: a) true

Explanation:

The costs incurred to produce the intermediate products have already been incurred and as such are referred to as sunk costs.

They will not change regardless of whether the good is sold before further processing or if it is sold after. They therefore do not matter in the decision to either process or sell and so are not considered.
