Answer:

A) Belgium's standard of living will never equal Austria's.

Explanation:

The rates of change in the GDP per person for both Austria and Belgium are, respectively:

R=\frac{GDP_1}{Population_1} -\frac{GDP_0}{Population_0}\\R_A = \frac{1+0.033}{1+0.0008}-1=0.03217\\R_B = \frac{1+0.03}{1+0.0013}-1=0.02866

Comparing both rates of change, it can be observed that Austria's GDP per person is increasing at a higher rate than Belgium's, and since Austria initially had a higher GDP per person,  Belgium's standard of living will never equal Austria's.

What will happen to the current ratio if current assets increase, while everything else remains unchanged?
Nana76 [90]

The current ratio will increase if current assets increase, while everything else remains unchanged.

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is the current ratio?</h3>

Generally, A liquidity ratio that evaluates a company's capacity to pay short-term debts or those that are due within the next year is called the current ratio.

It explains to investors and analysts how a business may get the most out of the current assets that are shown on its balance sheet in order to pay off its current debt and any other payables.

A current asset is defined as any asset that a company can reasonably expect to sell, consume, or deplete through the normal operations of the business inside the current financial year or an operating cycle, or an economic year.

In other words, a current asset is an asset that will be sold, consumed, or exhausted.

In conclusion, If current assets continue to grow while everything else stays the same, the current ratio will continue to show an upward trend.

A/P                            1,560 debit

    Inventory                                     1,560 credit

--to record returned goods to GameGirl--

A/P                          19,760 debit

      Inventory                                       395 credit

      Cash                                           19,365 credit

                                                              8,406 credit

--to record sale and subsequent cost of the sale--

total amount of the purchase in dollars:

82 game devices x 260 dollars each = 21,320

six returned devices:

6 x 260 = 1,560

invoice balance: 21,320 - 1,560 = 19,760

discount because payment within the first ten days:

19,760 x 2% = 395

final value: 19,760 - 395 = 19,365

sale of 62 devices at 280 = 17,360
