Answer:

$35,400

Explanation:

The computation of the increase in sales is shown below:

The Total sales value is

= Number of units sold × selling price per unit

= 2,950 units × $40 per unit

= $118,000

Now if the contribution margin increases by 30, so ultimately the sales is also increased by 30%

Therefore, the increase in sales is

= $118,000 × 30%

= $35,400

James Perkins wants to have a million dollars at retirement, which is 15 years away. He already has $200,000 in an IRA earning 8
Lelu [443]

Solution :

Given :

James needs $ 1,000,000 after 15 years.

His IRA deposit is $ 200,000 and is earning at the rate of 8% per annum.

Maturity value of $200,000 after 15 years = 2000000 \times( 1.08)^{15}

                                                                     = $ 634,434.

Balance fund needed after 15 years = 1,000,000 - 634,434

                                                           = $ 365,566

Therefore, the future value of the annuity is :

FV=A[\frac{(1+k)^n-1}{k}]

Here, FV = future annuity value = 365,566

            A = periodical investment

            k = interest rate = 8%

            n = period = 15 years

∴365566 = A\frac{[(1.08)^{15}-1]}{0.08}

       A = 13,464

Thus, James needs to save $ 13,464 each year end to reach his target.

Suppose you examine the central bank’s balance sheet and observe that since the previous day, reserves had fallen by $100 millio
aksik [14]

Answer:

The Central Bank is trying to increase money supply.

Explanation:

When the Central Bank makes moves to increase reserves, it means that it is simply trying to mop up excess cash from the economy to fight inflation. Spiking inflation means that the power of a currency is gradually being eroded. The Central Bank cannot allow this to happen so it hits the "Reduce Money In Circulation" button. It does this by reviewing upwards, the money reserves which commercial banks must hold with the Central Bank.  

It can also increase the rate at which it lends to the Commercial Banks and Investment houses. Commercial Banks, in turn, transfer the additional cost of borrowing to businesses who will seek loans. This slows down the rate at which money is pumped into the economy.

In the question, however, we notice that the Central Bank has enervated its reserves. This means that it is pumping more money into the economy. This economic move may have been executed to prevent the economy from slipping into a recession or simply to stimulate the economy.

In the short run, increased money supply means, businesses have more access to funds from commercial banks. More funds mean, more investment. Increased investment spending means the businesses will need to expand operations, hire more staff, and the multiplier effect goes on and on.

Cheers!

horsena [70]

Answer:

It will be counted as investment in 2016 and negative investment in 2017.

Explanation:

National income refers to the total value of a country's final output of all new goods and services produced in one year. There are various ways of measuring national income, e.g. GDP, GNP, etc

Therefore, following national income accounting practices, the car would be counted as part of the investments and GDP of 2016, and negative investment in 2017, because that was the year in which it was produced.
