Answer:
MPC = 0.4
Explanation:
Multiplier shows change in income due to change (increase) in investment, or change (decrease) in tax. It is calculated by Marginal Propensity to Consume, as follows -
Multiplier ie k = Δ Income / Δ (govt investment or tax) = 1 / (1 - MPC)
Given : ΔG ie tax fall = 60 ; Targeted income rise = Full employment - actual output = 2000 - 1900 = 100
k = ΔY / ΔG = 100 / 60 = 1.67
k = 1 / (1 - MPC) → 1 - MPC = 1 / k → 1 - MPC = 1 / 1.67 → 1 - MPC = 0.6
MPC = 1 - 0.6 → MPC = 0.4
Answer:
The correct answer is option b.
Explanation:
If the federal fund's rates were above the targeted rate, the Fed would need to move it towards the targeted rate. To move the interest rate towards the targeted rate, the government would need to increase the money supply. This can be done by buying bonds. When the Fed buys bonds they pay for it, this causes the money supply to increase. As the supply curve shifts to the right, the interest rate will fall down.
Solution :
Given :
Coupon rate for Bond J = 3%
Coupon rate for Bond K = 9%
YTM = 6 %
Therefore,
The current price for Bond J = $ 718.54 =PV(6%/2,13x2,30/2,1000)x -1
The current price for Bond K = $ 1281.46 =PV(6%/2,13x2,90/2,1000)x -1
If the interest rate by 2%,
Bond J = $ 583.42 = -18.80% (change in bond price)
Bond K = $ 1083.32 = -15.46% (change in bond price)
Answer:
1. $31,000
2. $40,000
Explanation:
1. Computation of bad debt expenses for the year
Bad debt expenses = Credit sales × Bad debts expenses
= $1,550,000 × 2%
= $31,000
2. Computation of year end balance
Year end balance = Beginning balance + Bad debt expense - Written off
= $31,000 + $31,000 - $22,000
= $40,000
Therefore for computing the bad debt expenses and year end balance we simply applied the above formula.
