<u>Explanation:</u>
First, remember that the difference between <em>normative and positive economic analysis</em> is that;
Normative analysis take a somewhat neutral view by stating how the world should be. While
The Positive analysis states the facts. That is, it describes the world as it is.
<u>
Thus, a </u><u>Normative analysis</u><u> of the consequence of minimum wage would be the following statements:</u>
c. In some cities such as San Francisco and New York, it would be impossible for low−skilled workers to live comfortably in the city without minimum wage laws.
d. The gains to winners of a minimum wage law should be valued more highly than the losses to losers because the latter primarily comprises businesses.
<u>And a </u><u>Positive analysis</u><u> of the consequence of minimum wage would be the following statements:</u>
a. The minimum wage law causes unemployment.
b. A minimum wage law benefits some groups and hurts others.

Answer:
(A) $144,000.
Explanation:
For computing the indirect costs allocated to the Commercial Department first we have to compute the per unit cost which is shown below:
Per unit cost = (Allocated department overhead indirect cost) ÷ (total number of direct labor hours)
= $396,000 ÷ 22,000
= $18
The total number of direct labor hours = Consumer + commercial
= 14,000 + 8,000
= 22,000
Now the indirect cost equal to
= Per unit cost × Commercial direct labor hours
= $18 × 8,000
= $144,000
Answer:
Total cash collection= $530,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
<u>Sales:</u>
February $500,000
March $400,000
April $600,000
60% of the credit sales are collected in the month of sale, 30% in the month following sale, and 10% in the second month following the sale.
<u>Cash collection April:</u>
Cash collection credit sales from April= (600,000*0.6)= 360,000
Cash collection credit sales from March= (400,000*0.3)= 120,000
Cash collection credit sales from February= (500,000*0.1)= 50,000
Total cash collection= $530,000
Answer:
Bond Price= $1,774.05
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Coupon rate= 0.0573/2= 0.02865
YTM= 0.067/2= 0.0335
The bond matures in 23 years.
Par value= $2,000
<u>To calculate the bond price, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Bond Price= 57.3*{[(1 - (1.0335^-46)] / 0.0335} + [2,000/1.0335^46]
Bond Price= 1,334.76 + 439.29
Bond Price= $1,774.05
