Why do some hurricanes build slower than others?

1 answer:

6 0

It all depends on the temperature of the water where it is headed and the mph winds and how fast it moves for example if a hurricane is moving at 1mph he is going to get bigger by the time it hits land but if a hurricane is going 12mph it will not grow as fast

Answer: Matched pairs design

Explanation:

A matched pairs design is a type of study used when 2 treaments are present in an experiment. The individuals in the design can be divided into pairs using a blocking variable, and each pair can then be allocated to treatments at random. This is thus a special type of randomized block design.

In this case the blocking variable can be the various urban areas as 1968 is matched against 1972. Each city can be compared based on 2 measurements. From their each individual can be grouped into pairs and allocated to different treatments.

Which of the following BEST describes a company's proper liquidity management?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A. Liquidity management is a balancing act, managers try to find liquidity levels that are neither too high not too low.

Explanation:

Maintaining proper liquidity is an important financial objective of management. Proper liquidity management demands that an entity should be able to meet his short term financial obligation and making sure that liquid assets of the entity are not idle. In order to achieve this, the best way to go is to maintain a level that is neither too high and not too low. Not too high means the entity is not holding too much cash or liquid assets than it currently need to meet its short term financial obligation.

For example, not keeping too much cash in current account but investing them in interest-earning investment assets.

Not too low means the cash or liquid assets held by an entity should not less than the amount needed to meet its short term financial obligation. For example, making sure that the entity has enough cash or readily convertible liquid assets that can be used to pay vendors, rent, interest and meet other short term financial obligation.

Option B is false because keeping too much does not help to maximize short term earnings which is a feature of proper liquidity management. Option C is wrong because there is no guideline to support that deferring coupon payment won`t attract payment and this does not connote proper liquidity management.

Option D is obviously false and does not describe proper liquidity management.

Fern Co. has net income, before taxes, of $200,000, including $20,000 interest revenue from municipal bonds and $10,000 paid for

exis [7]

Answer:

Effective tax rate =28.50 %

Explanation:

given data

Net Income before taxes = $2,00,000

Interest revenue = $20,000

Life insurance Premium = $10,000

tax rate = 30%

to find out

Fern's effective tax rate

solution

first we get here Taxable Income that is express as

Taxable Income = Net Income before taxes + Life insurance Premium - Interest revenue ........................1

put here value we get

Taxable Income = $2,00,000 + $10,000 - $20,000

Taxable Income = $190000

Income tax Liability will be

Income tax Liability = Taxable Income × Tax rate .....................2

Income tax Liability = $190000 × 30%

so Effective tax rate will be

Effective tax rate = $\frac{Income\ tax\ Liability}{Net\ Income}$

Effective tax rate = $\frac{57000}{200000}$

Effective tax rate =28.50 %

Suppose an industry has 100 firms, each with a supply curve P = 50 + 10Q . Furthermore, suppose the market demand curve is given

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The industry supply curve will be the supply curve given multiplied by the total number of firms. This will be:

P = 50 + 0.1Q

Check: since Q = 100

P = 50 + 10/100Q

P = 50 + 0.1Q

To get the Equilibrium price and quantity, we've to equate the market demand curve and supply. This will be:

Market demand = P = 200 - 0.9Q

Market Supply = P = 50 + 0.1Q

Therefore,

200 - 0.9Q = 50 + 0.1Q

200 - 50 = 0.1Q + 0.9Q

150 = Q

Equilibrium quantity = 150 units

Since P = 50 + 0.1Q

P = 50 + 0.1(150)

P = 50 + 15

P = 65

Equilibrium price is 65.

The units of output that will be produced by a firm operating in this market with a marginal cost function, MC = 130Q will be 2.
