Answer:

current price of the CPI basket = $550

base year's price of CPI basket = $500

CPI = (cost of basket in current year / cost of basket in base year) x 100

1) the CPI for the current year = ($550 / $500) x 100 =  110

2) if the CPI decreased to 90, it means that the economy is suffering from deflation or the decrease in the general price level. It would take a 10% decrease in the price level (deflation) to reach a CPI of 90.

3)

nominal GDP                       real GDP                      GDP deflator

$100 billion                          $80 billion                    <u>125</u>

<u>$200 billion</u>                        $100 billion                    200

<u>$240 billion</u>                        $200 billion                   120

$300 billion                        <u>$200 billion</u>                   150

$100 billion                         <u>$80 billion</u>                      125

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

$4,960

Explanation:

The computation of the appropriate balance for  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts but before that first we need to find out the allowance for doubtful debts which are shown below:

= Not yet due × given percentage + past due balance × given percentage + past due balance × given percentage

= $56,000 × 1% + $30,000 × 4% + $15,000 × 6%

= $560 + $1,200 + $900

= $2,660

And, there is a credit balance of $2,300

So, the appropriate balance is

= $2,660 + $2,300

= $4,960

Marty's home had burned to the ground. When he met with his insurance adjuster, she accused him of burning down the house and sa
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

B) duress.

Explanation:

"Duress" refers to the exercise of unlawful pressure by one individual upon another in order to coerce such person to act in such a way which he ordinarily will not.

Duress and undue influence are two terms that appear synonymous but actually differ. Under the latter, the act of coercion is carried out by an individual who held something in trust for other. Under duress, there exists a threat to harm, which is not necessarily true in case of undue influence.

In the given case, after Marty's house was burnt, the insurance adjuster instead of approving her claim, rather accused him of burning the house and further threatened him with criminal prosecution, if the former did not agree to much lower claim.  

In this case, Marty may rescind such previously agreed settlement on the grounds of  duress wherein, the insurance adjuster coerced and threatened him for such settlement and forcibly changed his action with the motive of deriving personal gains.
