Money is any item that serves as a medium of exchange for goods and services.
The government could decrease income tax so people have more disposable income to spend on goods and services and therefore increase AD. They could also increase government expenditure to increase AD.
(since AD=C+I+G+(X-M))
Answer: cost
Explanation: In a market economy, the price of the product or service offered are determined by the market forces of demand and supply. Govt. intervention in regulating the market forces is minimal in such markets.
Thus, if the entrepreneurs produce goods at a low cost they will price it low leading to high demand for their product. Thus, they will be compensated well if they cost their product lower than others.
Answer:
this is a cost minimization problem, but it is missing some numbers, so I looked for similar questions (see attached PDF):
minimization equation = 20x₁ + 22x₂ + 18x₃ (costs per ton)
where:
x₁ = mine I
x₂ = mine II
x₃ = mine III
the constraints are:
4x₁ + 6x₂ + x₃ ≥ 54 (high grade ore)
4x₁ + 4x₂ + 6x₃ ≥ 65 (low grade ore)
x₁, x₂, x₃ ≤ 7 (only 7 days per week)
using solver, the optimal solution is
2x₁, 7x₂, and 5x₃
a. The number of days Mine I should operate = <u>2 days
</u>
b. The number of days Mine Il should operate = <u>7 days
</u>
c. The number of days Mine III should operate = <u>5 days
</u>
d. The total cost of the operation for next week = <u>$284,000</u>
Answer:
b. $14,939
Explanation:
Property placed in service in 1st year:
Amount $
2nd quarter 15,000
3rd quarter 6,000
4th quarter <u>40,000</u>
Total furnishing at beginning of 2nd Year $61,000
Half Year depreciation rate in 2nd Year as per Macrs table under "7 years life" assets, the applicable depreciation in the 2nd year is 24.49%
Thus, amount of depreciation expense is allowable in the current (second) year of ownership = $61,000 * 24.49% = $14938.90
