Answer: Which of the following describes what is identified by a supply schedule?
How much suppliers will profit at various prices
How much consumers will save at various supply levels
How much suppliers will raise prices as production varies
How much of a product suppliers will produce at various prices
Explanation: A supply schedule is a table that shows the quantity supplied at each price. A supply curve is a graph that shows the quantity supplied at each price. Sometimes the supply curve is called a supply schedule because it is a graphical representation of the supply schedule.
I think the answer is B: a person with a credit score of 760 with a small amount of debt who has had steady employment for many years.
Answer:
New home sales and existing home sales are released each month at about the same time. Many comparisons are made between the two series, but before doing any comparisons, one must be aware of some definition differences that affect the timing of the statistics.
The Census Bureau collects new home sales based upon the following definition: "A sale of the new house occurs with the signing of a sales contract or the acceptance of a deposit." The house can be in any stage of construction: not yet started, under construction, or already completed. Typically about 25% of the houses are sold at the time of completion. The remaining 75% are evenly split between those not yet started and those under construction.
Existing home sales data are provided by the National Association of Realtors®. According to them, "the majority of transactions are reported when the sales contract is closed." Most transactions usually involve a mortgage which takes 30-60 days to close. Therefore an existing home sale (closing) most likely involves a sales contract that was signed a month or two prior.
Given the difference in definition, new home sales usually lead existing home sales regarding changes in the residential sales market by a month or two. For example, an existing home sale in January, was probably signed 30 to 45 days earlier which would have been in November or December. This is based on the usual time it takes to obtain and close a mortgage.
Effective with January 2005, the National Association of Realtors created a new monthly series to overcome the lagging effect of the existing home sales definition. This new series is called Pending Home Sales and is based on sales of existing homes where the contract has been signed but the transaction has not been closed, making it roughly equivalent to the new home sales definition. Monthly estimates are expressed as an index where the year 2001 has been set to equal 100.0.

None of the above
Explanation:
A sensitivity analysis measures how under a certain set of assumptions, different values of an independent variable influence the dependent variable. It is also known as what if analysis and it is based on various assumptions. Options given in the question like changes in depreciation tax shield over a project's life, changes in production levels with the changes in revenue etc. are absolutely certain to an extent, or in other words, bound to happen.
Answer:
d.efficient in production but not necessarily in allocation.
Explanation:
The production possibility curve portrays the cost of society's choice between two different goods. An economy that operates at the frontier has the highest standard of living it can achieve, as it is producing as much as it can using the same resources. If the amount produced is inside the curve, then all of the resources are not being used.
- all points on the curve are points of maximum productive efficiency
- However, an economy may achieve productive efficiency without necessarily being allocatively efficient. Market failure (such as imperfect competition or externalities) and some institutions of social decision-making (such as government and tradition) may lead to the wrong combination of goods being produced (hence the wrong mix of resources being allocated between producing the two goods) compared to what consumers would prefer, given what is feasible on the PPF.
