Based on the circle graph, about how many dollars does the federal government expect to spend on health that year?

. A building owner charges net rent of $20 in the first year, $21 in the second year, and $22 in the third year, but is providin

Anit [1.1K]

Answer: $17.28

Explanation:

6 month free concession in first year drops rent to:

= 20 / 2

= $10

Effective rent = [Present value of Year 1 rent + Present value of Year 2 rent + Present value of Year 3 rent ] / [ 1 - (1 / (1 + rate)^ number of years) / rate]

= [(10 / (1 + 10%) ) + (21 / (1 + 10%)²) + (22 / (1 + 10%)³)] * [1 - (1 / (1 + 10%)³/ 10%)]

= (9.09 + 17.355 + 16.5289) / 2.48685

= $17.28

Suppose the black market shrinks because firms shift to the formal sector, but production remains the same. GDP

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: will increase but this will not affect living standards

Explanation:

GDP is sometimes called an incomplete measure because there are certain measures that it does not include such as the black market.

If firms in the black market shift to the formal sector, they will now be included in GDP which means that GDP will increase.

The living standards of people in the country will probably not change however because the firms involved were simply shifting sectors and are not said to be more or less prosperous as a result. Assuming they remained the same, nothing changes for living standards.

. Discuss and Implement the Price Adjustment Strategies in current market. Apply each strategy with 3 examples along with pictur

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

There are many different price adjustment strategies which can be implemented in the current market.

Explanation:

Psychological pricing:

Psychological pricing is a strategy in which the price of a product is displayed with mostly one cent difference so the whole number shown is less by $1 and this difference can get higher if the price of the product is more.

Example 1: The price for a toy in a toy shop is $4.99, if rounded this will be $5 but the whole number visible is $4.

Example 2: The price of a laptop is $193, this again is nearly $200 but the price is reduced by $7 in order to influence their customers into buying the product.

Example 3: The price of a car is $35,995, this again is about $36,000 but the buyer may be influenced by this technique and result in purchasing the product with such price.

Geographical Pricing:

Geographical pricing is a strategy where different prices are charged in different outlets, this strategy is made keeping in mind the purchasing power of the locality, if the local people can pay higher price for a product then the price is high there but same product may have a lower price in an area where people can not pay high price.

Example 1: Price of a T-shirt is $15 in a posh area while the price of the same T-shirt is $5 in an area with poor locality.

Example 2: Price of a hair brush is $10 in a poor area while the same brush is available in a posh area at a rate of $35.

Example 3: Price for a food item is $6 in a restaurant in posh area while the same burger is available for $3 in a restaurant in a poor area.

A project to build a new bridge seems to be going very well since the project is well ahead of schedule and costs seem to be run

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Schedule variance = $1,428,140

Schedule Performance Index (SPI) = 1.132

Cost Performance Index = 0.801

Explanation:

Planned Value = $1,414,000 + $10,494,000 + $8,494,000 * 53%

= $20,402,000 * 53%

= $10,813,060

Earned Value = $1,414,000 + $10,494,000 + $8,494,000 * 60%

= $20,402,000 * 60%

= $12,241,200

Schedule Variance = Earned value - Planned value

= $12,241,200 - $10,813,060

= $1,428,140

Schedule Performance Index (SPI)

= Earned value / Planned value

= $12,241,200 / $10,813,060

= 1.132

Actual Cost (AC)

= $1,294,000 + $8,994,000 + $4,994,000

= $15,282,000

Cost Performance Index (CPI)

= Earned value / Actual cost

= $12,241,200 / $15,282,000

= 0.801

Your neighbor, Bayonetta, offers you an investment opportunity which will pay a single lump sum of $2,150 four years from today.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

18.24%

Explanation:

Annual rate of return is used in determining the return on an investment over a 12 month or one year period.

Annual rate of return = [(future value / cost ) ^( 1/n) ] - 1

future value = 2150

present cost = 1100

n = number of years = 4

(2150 / 1100)^(1/4) - 1 = 0.1824 = 18.24%
