Answer:

The predicted sales revenue for 2017=$501,334.008

Explanation:

If something reduces at a constant rate over a specified period of time, then it can be represented using an exponential function as follows;

y=a(1-r)^x, or y=ab^x

where;

y=final sales revenue after the reduction

a=initial sales revenue before the reduction

1-b=reduction factor

x=time interval

In our case;

y=$590,000

a=$780,000

1-r=b=unknown

x=2011-2000=12 years

replacing;

590,000=780,000.b^12

b^11=590,000/780,000=0.756

b=0.756^(1/12)

b=0.977

r=1-0.977=0.023

Determine predicted sales revenue;

y=ab^x

y=sales revenue in 2017

a=sales revenue in 2011=$590,000

b=0.977

x=7 years

replacing;

y=590,000(0.977)^7

y=$501,334.008

The predicted sales revenue for 2017=$501,334.008

An​ "excessive" budget deficit in this context is
rjkz [21]

Answer:

A) A relatively large budget deficit as a percentage of GDP beyond the European​ Union's deficit and debt rules.

Explanation:

A budget deficit is when the governments have more expenditures in a budgeted year than they have the revenues in form of taxes and other incomes. A deficit is excessive if it is large in comparison to the GDP.

In the European Union the budget deficit is considered excessive if it exceeds 3% of the running years GDP.

A public debt percentage to GDP of 60% or above is considered excessive as most of the GDP then is used for debt servicing and thus impacts negatively on the financial health of the country.

Hope that helps.

Alborosie

Answer:

Net export decreases and net capital outflow decreases

Net export increases and net capital outflow decreases

Net export decreases and net capital outflow increases

Net export increases and net capital outflow increases

Explanation:

Net export = export - import

export would comprise of goods and services produced in the US that are been sold to foreign countries

Import would comprise of foreign produced goods and services that are been sold in the US

Net export would increase when export occurs and decrease when import occurs

Net capital outflow measures the flow of funds in a country. It is the difference between purchase of foreign assets by the citizens of a country and the purchase of domestic assets by foreigners

Net capital outflow = purchase of foreign assets by citizens - purchase of domestic assets by foreigners

Net capital outflow is positive when purchase of foreign assets occur and negative when purchase of domestic assets occur.

1. the setting up of the factory is an import and there is a flow of funds into the US economy. Thus, net export and net capital flow decrease

2. A Apple computer is produced in the US. The sale to a German constitutes an export but there is a flow of fund into the US economy. net export increase and net capital outflow decreases

3. Sony is not produced in the US. the purchase of the TV constitutes an import and there is a flow of funds out of the US economy. Net export reduces and net capital outflow increases

4. The opening of the fashion company outlet in the UK constitutes an export and there is a flow of funds out of the US. Net export increases and net capital outflow increases
