Answer: $155,520

Explanation:

Pension Expense = Service Cost - Expected return on plan assets + Prior service cost amortization + Interest cost

Interest Cost

= Interest rate * Projected benefit obligation

= 0.09 * 728,000

= $65,520

Pension Expense = 110,000 - 30,000 + 10,000 + 65,520

= $155,520

Karolina [17]

Answer: Molly <u><em>cannot </em></u>simply pick up where she left off because <em><u>two years after the license expires, all license rights lapse. Molly must re-qualify through the examination process before being licensed in real estate once again.</u></em>

The mandatory CE Requirements for all Board of Behavioral Science -licensees state that a individual must receive 36 continuing education i.e. (CE) after every two (2)- year license renewal period.

Here,  Molly hadn't kept up with any CE requirements, nor had she renewed her license after it expired almost three years earlier. Therefore she <em><u>cannot </u></em>simply pick up where she left off.

Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production
Leno4ka [110]

Answer: The loss of enjoyment people incur when scenic land is converted to commercial use.

The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government.

The leisure time enjoyed by Americans Funds spent by state governments to build highways

Explanation:

The gross domestic product is the value in terms of money of all the goods and services that are produced in a particular country at a certain period of time.

Over time, people have often criticised the use of GDP as a good measurement of the output of a nation that it does not include every transactions and production for that nation. In this scenario, the following cases are either not accurately accounted for or are measured inaccurately.

1. The loss of enjoyment people incur when scenic land is converted to commercial use.

2. The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government.

3. The leisure time enjoyed by Americans Funds spent by state governments to build highways.

In the above cases, the monetary value of these activities aren't reflected on the GDP calculation.

The management of Unter Corporation, an architectural design firm, is considering an investment with the following cash flows:
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

6.50 Years

Explanation:

The computation of the  payback period of the investment is shown below;

Total cash outflow is

= $15,000 + $8,000

= $23,000

Now the Cash Inflow in all 6 years is

= $1,000 + $2,000 + $2,500 + $4,000 + $5,000 + $6,000

= $20,500

Cash inflow in Year 7 is $5,000.

But Cumulative Cash flows from Year 1 to Year 7 is

= $20,500 + $5,000

= $26,500

This amount is more than Initial Investment  i.e. $23,000.

So our Payback period is between 6 & 7 years i.e.  

= 6 + ($23,000 - $20,500) ÷ 5000

= 6.50 Years

When the economy is in a recession, expansionary fiscal policy can be used to stimulate and encourage economic growth. Which of
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Discretionary fiscal policies are deliberate steps taken by the government to stimulate the economy in order to cause the economy to move to full employment and price stability more quickly than it might otherwise.

Discretionary fiscal policies can either be expansionary or contractionary

Expansionary fiscal policy is when the government increases the money supply in the economy either by increasing spending or cutting taxes.

If taxes are cut, disposable income increases and demand increases. this is an example of demand side

On the other hand, if a replacement project is undertaken, the demand for labour increases. this is an example of supply side

Contractionary fiscal policies is when the government reduces the money supply in the economy either by reducing spending or increasing taxes
