Answer:

 = $212.61  per month

Explanation:

When a loan is to be paid over a period of time using a series of periodic equal installments, it is called loan amortization. Each equal installment is meant to liquidate the principal and the accrued interest.

<em>The amount to be financed by way of loan=</em>

= cost of machine - (20%× cost of machine)

= $12,500 - (20%  × $12,500 )

= $10,000

The monthly equal installment is calculated as follows:

<em>Monthly equal installment-= Loan amount/Monthly annuity factor</em>

<em>Monthly annuity factor </em>

<em>=( 1-(1+r)^(-n))/r</em>

Monthly interest rate (r)

= 1%/12= 0.0833%

Number of months ( n)  in 4 years

= 12* 12 = 144

Annuity factor

= ( 1- (1.000833)^(-12×4)/0.000833

= 47.033

Monthly installment =  $10,000/47.03

= $212.61  per month

When the economy is in a recession, expansionary fiscal policy can be used to stimulate and encourage economic growth. Which of
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. The government lowers tax rates and undertakes a replacement of old bridges and roads

B. The government lowers tax rates and issues a partial refund of taxes that have already been paid

These 2 statements are correct explained below

Explanation:

A. The government lowers tax rates and undertakes a replacement of old bridges and roads, this statement is correct because when the government lowers tax rates it means that people have higher disposable income on their hands therefore they can spend more which increases demand, and people also invest more which increases supply, also the replacement of bridges and roads is improvement in infrastructure and this also increases supply as transportation is easier and cheaper for businesses.

B. The government lowers tax rates and issues a partial refund of taxes that have already been paid, this statement is correct because when the government lowers tax rates it means that people have higher disposable income on their hands therefore they can spend more which increases demand, and people also invest more which increases supply, also refund of taxes will increase the disposable money that people have so they can invest and consume both which will increase both supply and demand.

C. The government raises tax rates and reduces unemployment insurance payment

This is contraction fiscal policy and will do the opposite of expansionary fiscal policy, that is why this statement is incorrect.

D. The Federal Reserve increases the money supply and lowers the interest rate while the government simultaneously reduces future taxes. This statement is wrong because lowering the interest rate is an expansionary monetary policy and not an expansionary fiscal policy.

andriy [413]

Answer:

$953 per unit

Explanation:

For computing the average cost per unit first we have to determine the operating capacity at 85% after that the total cost which is shown below:

Operating capacity at 85% is

= 300 computers × 85%

= 255 computers

Now the total cost is

= Variable cost + Fixed cost

where,

Variable cost is

= $660 × 255 computers

= $168,300

And, the fixed cost is $74,700

So, the total cost is

= $168,300 + $74,700

= $243,000

Now the average cost per unit is

= $243,000 ÷ 255 computers

= $953 per unit

lawyer [7]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

The implicit cost of capital

Implicit cost of capital is the opportunity cost of capital which is already incurred but not reported as a separate cost/expense, Implicit cost is the cost which results from using an existing asset instead of selling or renting it.

For example when a businessman uses his/her existing land which has implicit cost of say $1000 per month but bought it for say $100 many years ago, so $1000 is its implicit cost/current market rent per month which is equal to its oppo
