Jack's manufacture company have experienced inflation for the past three years as follows: the first year's periodic inflation r

ankoles [38]

Answer:

8.09%

Explanation:

Year Inflation rate 1 + Inflation rate

1 0.03 1.03

2 0.04 1.04

3 x 1+x

Average rate 0.05 0.05

1 + Average rate = [(1+r1)*(1+r2)*(1+r3)]^(1/3)

1.05 = [1.03*1.04*(1*x)]^(1/3)

[1.0712*(1+x)] = (1.05)^3

[1.0712*(1+x)] = 1.157625

1 + x = 1.157625 / 1.0712

1 + x = 1.080681

x = 1.080681 - 1

x = 0.080681

x = 8.09%

Thus, the periodic Inflation rate in year 3 is 8.09%

Who pays the tax does depend on who writes the check to the government?

mina [271]

Who pays the tax does NOT depend on who write the check to the government.
Who pays the check ultimately depend on the elasticity of supply and demand. This is because, suppliers have several ways of passing the taxes levied on them by the government to the consumers in form of increase in price of their products. But this also depend on the elasticity of the products, because if the prices are too high, some customers may decide to buy somewhere else or to go for a substitute.<span />

weqwewe [10]

Given:
ΔY = $5,000, the change in income
ΔS = 50,000 - 54,000 = - 4,000, the change in savings.

MPS = ΔS/ΔY = -4000/5000 = -0.8

The relation between MPS and MPC (Marginal Propensity to Consume) is
MPS + MPC = 1.
Therefore
MPC - 0.8 = 1
MPC = 1.8

Answer:
MPS = 0.8
MPC = 1.8
