Although Costco pays its employees substantially more than its closest competitor, Sam’s Club, it has similar financial returns on its labor costs due to lower turnover and higher levels of productivity

Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

While Costco costs its workers slightly more than its closest competitor, Sam's Club, Costco pays higher prices in order to recruit more professionals and to provide better customer service due to lower turnover and a similar financial return.

Direct costs involve wages for staff making a product and employees on the production line, while indirect costs apply to assistance, such as employees repairing factory equipment.

When labor costs are wrongly distributed or measured, the price of goods or services may be changed from their actual costs and profits from losses.

A small country that uses the U.S. dollar as its currency is measuring its GDP for the current year. Personal consumption expend
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

$117,800

Explanation:

GDP formula is:

GDP= Consumption (C)+ Investment (I)+ Government expenditure ()+ Net exports (exports-imports)

Last year, C= $69,000 and it increased 10% (100%+10%=110%),  

This year: C= $69,000*1.10= $75,900.

Last year: I= $18,000 and it decreased 5% (100%-5%=95%).

This year: I= $18,000*0,95= $17,100

Last year: G=$19,000 and it increased by 20% (100%+20%=120%)

This year: G= $ 19,000*1.20=$22,800

Last year: X-M= $2000 and it remained the same

This year: X-M= $2000

Current year´s GDP= $75,900+$17,100+$22,800+$2000= $117,800

. A firm begins the year with a Book Value of $10 million. During the year it generates $5 million in net profits. It paid $1 mi
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

b) $12 million

Explanation:

The new Book Value of the firm at the bigining of next year is $12 million.

In the calulation of Net Pfofit, Interst on loan has already been deducted, so deducting it from the total calculation will be wrong.

hence, only dividend paid will be removed from the addition of the Book Value anf the Net profit.

Closing balance = Opening Book Value + Net Profit - Dividend Paid

Note - The Net Profit is already ne of interest on loan.

Closing balance = $10 + $5 - $3

Closing balance is $12

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

This is false.

In reporting reserves aggregate there are lags interest rate such as the federal interest rate are quite easy to measure and easily observable. Such short term interest rate are nominal values and they do not measure the real cost of borrowing well. It does not show accurately what happens to Gross domestic product. Real interest rate equals nominal interest rate as a ratio of reduced inflation gives a representation of true cost of borrowing.

We cannot say with certainty that interests rate is a better policy instrument based on the ground of measurability.
