Answer:
A. Movement on the PPC
B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC
C. Less Concavity of PPC
Explanation:
Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).
- It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
- It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
- Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.
a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)
b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.
c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.
<u>Given:</u>
Loan amount = $250000
Interest rate = 5.5%
Interest payment = $2042.71
<u>To find:</u>
Total amount of interest
<u>Solution:</u>
The total number of months in 15 years = 
Total monthly payments will be 
So, the total pay-backs will be $3,67,687.8
Total interest paid will be as follows,

On plugging-in the values in the above formula we get,

Therefore, the total amount of interest that the borrower will pay over the course of the loan is $1,17,687.80.
Answer:
Cash used for financing activities 356,000
Explanation:
extinguish of bonds payable (375,000)
preferred dividends (31,000)
proceeds from TS 50,000
Cash used for financing activities 356,000
The conversion do nt involve cash, so it is not included in the cash flow statement.
The carrying ammount, gain and losses are not relevant for the cash flow statement.
We have to focus in the cash movements only.
Answer:
Required rate of return = 10.75%
Explanation:
<em>The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity
</em>
The model is represented below:
P = D× (1+g)/ ke- g
Ke- cost of equity, g - growth rate, p - price of the stock
This model can used to work out the cost of equity, as follows:
Ke = D× (1+g)/p + g
Ke = (1.48× 1.05)/27 + 0.05
Ke= 0.107555556
Required return = 0.1075 × 100 = 10.75
Required rate of return = 10.75%
$14,000 rupees will be disbursed totally in march.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- The operating cost is $38,000 per month. This is including depreciation. So cash pending on March 1 is $8,000.
- At the end of March month, the cash balance of $6000 is required. So a total of $14,000 is required at the end of the month. Including the labor costs, he wants to pay $14,000.
- He can borrow money in multiples of $1000. For emergencies, this money can be borrowed. So $14,000 should be dispersed in the month of March.
