Answer:

The probability is 0.20 or 20%

Explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have that

Multiple of 5 between 1 and 15 = 5, 10,15

$x=3$

Total numbers between 1 and 15=15

$y=15$

substitute

$P=\frac{3}{15}=0.20$

Convert to percentage

$P=0.20(100)=20\%$

If there is a recessionary gap in the short run, the Federal Reserve can eliminate the gap in the short run by undertaking a po

NeTakaya

Answer:

D. harms the society by interfering with the economy's natural process.

Explanation:

In order to get out of recession, the fed should reduce the tax rates, which would in return lead to higher disposable income of the consumers, and then there will be an increase in the demand.

On the other hand the sale of bonds would even further increase the recession, as there will be more cash crunch in the economy. A decrease in reserve ratio will be a long time taking solution, so it would not provide an immediate solution.

MCQ

But, if the fed interferes with the short run equilibrium in the hope of giving short run benefits, it will hamper the economy's natural process to attain a new equilibrium as discussed in the paragraph above. Hence, option D is the correct answer

Option A and C are incorrect, because, employment is not much affected with lowering of income tax. On, the other hand, inflation levels rise, when there is a cut in income tax, as it gives more currency in the economy, hence even C is incorrect.

A $2,000 cash dividend is planned in 2019. No dividend was paid in 2018. 1,000 shares of 5% cumulative $10 par value preferred s

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

C) $1000

Explanation:

First lets calculate the cumulative preferred stock dividend for 2 years

(1000 * 10 ) * 5% = 500 / year

so for 2 years = $1000 since it is cumulative and not paid in one year is added to next year.

Total dividend payable = $2000

so for common stock whatever is left over is paid thus,

Common stock share = Total - Preferred cumulative = 2000 - 1000 = $1000

Hope that helps.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

reported as income for all three years is $7,000

Explanation:

given data

cost of the ending inventory = $181,000

market value inventory = $160,000

to find out

Shondee Corporation must add income

solution

we get here Income per year that is

Income per year = (Value under FIFO Method - Value Under Cost Method ) ÷ Number of year ..............................1

put here value we get

Income per year = $\frac{181000 - 160000}{3}$

Income per year = $\frac{21000}{3}$

Income per year = $7000

so reported as income for all three years is $7,000
