Answer: False
Explanation:
The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate adjusted for inflation.
If the nominal interest rate was made with inflation in mind and this inflation is less than anticipated, the real rate will be higher not lower than expected.
For instance: Assume the nominal rate is 8% and the two parties assumed inflation would be 4%. Real rate would be:
= 8 - 4 = 4%
If inflation is instead 2%, real rate would be:
= 8 - 2 = 6%
Real rate would be higher than anticipated.
Answer:
price per unit times the number of units sold.
Explanation:
total revenue = total number of units sold x price per unit

- the variable cost per unit times the number of units sold = total variable costs
- the change in revenue when one additional worker is hired = marginal revenue product of the additional worker
- firms seek to maximize profits, not revenue

Answer:
C. when they are incurred, whether or not cash is paid.
Explanation:
In accrual accounting, expenses are recorded in the moment they are incurred, even if they have not been paid for.
In fact, the term "accrued expense" means an expense that has been incurred, but not yet paid.
One common example of an accrued expense is accrued wages:
Suppose that a firm hires a worker on March 1, for a wage of $1,000 dollars per month, that is due to be paid at the end of the month (March 31). This worker is earning $33 per day. By March 4, the firm should have recorded accrued wages for $132 ($33 x 4 days) even if no payments will be made until March 31.
