Answer:

It will take approximately 55 years

Explanation:

<em>The future value of a lump sum is the amount expected at a future date when a sum of money is invested today at a particular rate of interest for certain number of years</em>

FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)

FV= 50,000, PV = 4,000, n-?, r- 5%

50,000 = 4,000 × (1.05)^n

divide both sides by 4000

12.5 = 1.05^n

n= log 12.5/log 1.05

n = 51.8

The number of years = 51.8 + 3 years

                                  =54.767

Approximately 55 years

It will take 55 years

A specific reduction in government spending will dampen demand-pull inflation by a greater amount the: 
A. Smaller is the econom
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

A reduction in spending is going to reduce the income of the consumers in the economy. The consumers do not spend all their income but save it partially. The saving is used to create funds which are invested again and lead to increase in output. The rate of consumption depends on the marginal propensity to consume and marginal propensity to save. The marginal propensity to save is 1-MPC. Smaller MPS will cause saving to be less, consequently investment will also be lower.

So, a reduction in the government spending will be more effective in curbing demand-pull inflation if the marginal propensity to consume is higher and marginal propensity to save is smaller.

So, in the given question the two units sold would be costing $80 and $95

Hence,

Gross profit = $240 - ($80 + $95)

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Dr Retained earnings $14,000

Cr Inventory $14,000

Explanation:

There is a need to make adjustment to the inventory . Therefore,

Adjusted inventory

= New method of $171,000 - Old method of $185,000

= $14,000 decrease

It is to be noted that a lower inventory will have high costs associated with goods sold hence reduces profit/net income for the previous year by $14,000.

Also, the net income reports to retained earnings account hence decreases retained earnings.

Having made the above adjustment, we can assume that the average cost method was used for 2020 books.
