Answer:

(a)

Mathematical Equation for break-even

F = QP - QV

Where

F = fixed cost

Q = Break-even quantity

P = Selling price

V = Variable cost

F = Q ( P - V )

Q = F / ( P - V )

Q = $327,030 / ( $630 - $300 )

Q = $327,030 / $330

Q = 991 units

(b)

Contribution Margin = Price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution Margin = $630 - $300 = $330

Break-even Point in Units = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin per unit

Break-even Point in Units = $327,030 / $330 = 991 units

Explanation:

Mathematical equation use the the break-even equation which represent the behavior of each element towards the break-even point.

Contribution per unit method use the contribution of each unit to calculate the break-even point.

Assume that you have a balance of $4000 on your credit card and that you make no more charges. If your APR is 23.9% and each mon
KatRina [158]

Answer:

The balance will be less than $100 after 44 months payment

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the time at which the Balance on a credit card would be less than $100.

To calculate this, we proceed as follows;

The monthly Interest rate = 23.9%/12 = 1.99166667%

Balance after t months = Credit Card balance * [(1 + Monthly interest rate ) * (1- Minimum payment rate)]^t

The credit card balance is $4,000, and the minimum payment rate is 5%

We plug these values into the equation to get;

$4,000 * [(1+1.99166667%) * (1 - 5%)]^t

= $4000 *[1.0199166667 * 0.95]^t

= $4000 * (0.968920836)^t

Balance after t months < 100

$4,000 * (0.968920836)^t < 100

(0.968920836)^t < 0.025

t = 43.9 months = 44 months

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

c. Debit: Discount on notes payable, $41,884.

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Equipment    $883,116  

Discount on Notes payable $41,884  ($740,000 - $698,116)

        To Notes payable       $740,000  

        To Cash                       $185,000

(Being the amount paid in cash and note payable is recorded)

Working note

= Note payable amount × PVF factor at 6% for one year

= $740,000 × 0.94340

= $698,116

For recording this we debited the equipment as it increased the assets and discount is always debited while the note payable and cash is credited as it increased the liabilities and reduced the assets

A country has a population of 20,000 people and a GDP of 50 million dollars. What is the per capita GDP of the country?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>$</u></em><em><u>250</u></em><em><u>0</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

<h3><em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>,</u></em></h3>

No. of peoples living in a country = <em>20,000</em>

GDP of the country is = 50 million dollars or<em> $50,000,000</em>

<h3><em><u>As</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>we</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>know</u></em><em><u>,</u></em></h3>

per \: capita \: gdp \:  =  \frac{country's \: total \: GDP }{country's \: total \: population}

<h3><em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em></h3>

The per capita GDP of the given country will be

= \frac{country's \: total \: GDP }{country's \: total \: population}

=  \frac{50,000,000}{20,000}

= $2500

<h3><em><u>Henceforth</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em></h3>

<em><u>The</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>per</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>capita</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>GDP</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>given</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>country</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>$</u></em><em><u>250</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Ans</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>

Advocates of the rational-expectations approach predict that a credible policy to lower inflation will result in a loss of outpu
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is lower.

Explanation:

The theory of rational expectations is a hypothesis of economic science that states that predictions about the future value of economically relevant variables made by agents are not systematically wrong and that errors are random (white noise). An alternative formulation is that rational expectations are "consistent expectations around a model," that is, in a model, agents assume that the predictions of the model are valid. The rational expectations hypothesis is used in many contemporary macroeconomic models, in game theory and in applications of rational choice theory.

Since most current macroeconomic models study decisions over several periods, the expectations of workers, consumers and companies about future economic conditions are an essential part of the model. There has been much discussion about how to model these expectations and the macroeconomic predictions of a model may differ depending on the assumptions about the expectations (see the web's theorem). To assume rational expectations is to assume that the expectations of economic agents can be individually wrong, but correct on average. In other words, although the future is not totally predictable, it is assumed that the agents' expectations are not systematically biased and that they use all the relevant information to form their expectations on economic variables.
