Answer:

<em>There is a direct relation of the productivity, economic growth, and future standards of living with the investment in factories, machinery, new  technology, and the health, education, and training of people.</em>

Explanation:

  1. <u><em>Relation with the investment in factories, machinery, new  technology </em></u>

If there is larger investment in factories, machinery and new technology (fixed assets investing) then there will be more production which will require more labour. With more production, there will be more consumption thereby. The profits of the enterprises will increase and hence more taxes will be paid to the government, labour income in the economy will rise and hence there will be more consumption thereby. More taxes to the government will imply more public spending by the government.

So, saying all of that <em>productivity, economic growth, and future standards of living </em>will be in a much better place with the increase in fixed assets investing and vice-versa.

     2. <u><em>Relation with the investment in health, education, and training of</em></u><em> </em><u><em>people</em></u>

With the increased investment in health, education and training, people would be able to work more and better. Thereby, implying <em>higher incomes and productivity leading to more economic growth and ultimately better future standards of living.</em>

What happens to the price and the quantity bought and sold in the cocoa market if countries producing cocoa experience a drought
Rashid [163]

Answer: Supply of cocoa will fall; Demand rises; Price increases.

Explanation:

A drought is when there is little or no rainfall in a particular area. When countries that are producing cocoa experience a drought, this will lead to a reduction in the supply of cocoa as there will be lesser cocoa available for farmers to supply.

Then, due to the new study which is released demonstrating the health benefits of cocoa, this will lead to an increase in the demand for cocoa. The demand will rise and since there's increase in demand and reduction in supply, the price will rise.

Simmons sold merchandise to Drafke for $5,000 with payment terms of 2/10, n/30. Two days later, Drafke returned two of the units
ioda

Answer:

The amount of the sales discount is $60.

Explanation:

The with payment terms of 2/10, n/30 imply that Drafke will enjoy 2% discount if he pays within 10 days; but after the first 10 days, the full invoice amount payable will be due for payment in 30 days without the 2% discount.

From the question, we have:

Total credit sales = $5,000

Sales return = $2,000

Net credit sales = Total credit sales - Sales return = $5,000 - $2,000 = $3,000

If Drafke pays his account in full within ten days of the invoice date, he will enjoy the 2% discount rate. Therefore, we have:

Discount amount = Net credit sales * Discount rate = $3,000 * 2% = $60

Therefore, the amount of the sales discount is $60.
