To determine the increase in the amount of money in the economy brought about the $600 taken out of the piggy bank, we multiply $600 by the decimal equivalent of the percentage given. That is,
($600) x (0.02) = $12
Hence, your $600 will increase the amount of money in the economy by $12.
Answer:
8.25%
Explanation:
Orange, Inc. should calculate the MARR (minimum acceptable rate of return) for this project using the following:
Re = 12% (similar to Paste, Inc., so it can be considered the industry's average)
Rd = 6% x (1 - 25%) = 4.5%
MARR = (1/2 x 12%) + (1/2 x 4.5%) = 6% + 2.25% = 8.25%
This calculation is similar to calculating a company's WACC since you must determine the weighted cost of financing the project.
Answer:
A) Somewhat effective, but only to the extent that most of the tax cut is concurrently spent on domestic output, that multiplier effects occur, and crowding out is small.
Explanation:
First of all, the larger amount of money would increase the inflation rate since aggregate supply hasn't increased. The number of goods and services offered do not vary, then only thing that varies is the amount of disposable money.
The larger the multiplier, the larger the positive effect. The multiplier formula = 1 / MPS (marginal propensity to save). Even though inflation increases, still the economy is going to grow. That unless the local residents decide to purchase many imported goods. The larger the amount of imported goods purchased, the lower the positive effects.
This type of policy can be very effective under conditions where deflation or inflation rates are near 0 or even negative. Although high inflation is very bad for the economy, a small amount of inflation is always needed to boost economic growth. The healthy inflation is around 1.5 - 2% per year. This way salaries and wages can grow, pushing aggregate demand and supply.
Answer:
$6.98 per pound
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price per pound is shown below:
As we know that
8 pounds of coffee sells for $9.20 per pound which equal to
= 8 pounds × $9.20 per pound
= $73.6
And, 12 pounds of coffee is for $5.50 per pound which equal to
= 12 pounds × $5.50 per pound
= $66
The total value would be
= $73.6 + $66
= $139.60
And, the total number of pounds would be
= 8 pound + 12 pound
= 20 pounds
And we assume the selling price per pound be X
So, the equation would be
$139.60 = 20 pounds × X
So, X would be
= $139.60 ÷ 20 pounds
= $6.98 per pound
Answer:
$11,510
Explanation:
Calculation for the gross margin amount from the four transactions
First is to find the Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold = ($13,900 - $3,400) × (100%-2%)
Cost of goods sold=$10,500*0.98
Cost of goods sold=$10,290
Last step is to find the gross margin amount using this formula
Gross margin amount=Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold
Let plug in the formula
Gross margin amount=$21,800-$10,290
Gross margin amount=$11,510
Therefore the gross margin amount from the four transactions will be $11,510
