Answer:

Statement (a) = (2) Verifiability

Statement (b) = (1) Comparability

Statement (c) = (4) Comparability (Consistency)

Statement (d) = (3) Timeliness

Explanation:

As for the provided information we have,

Statement (a) = (2) Verifiability

This characteristic refers to the information verified and confirmed to be accurate.

Statement (b) = (1) Comparability

The characteristic of an information which provides the similarity and differences between the two statements is comparability.

As here both the organisations use same cost flow assumption, it makes the data comparable.

Statement (c) = (4) Comparability (Consistency)

There is a consistency, that means use of same policy from a long time, and not changing it.

Here, the company is using straight line depreciation since its incorporation, and thus it is consistent with its policies.

Statement (d) = (3) Timeliness

Timeliness as the name suggest refers to the preparation of statements within the time relevant for preparing such statements.

As the quarterly statements are to be prepared in the quarter end resulting in benefit to the users of such reports, it is a timely information.

disposable income (billions of dollars per year) total consumption (billions of dollars per year) $ 0 $ 50 200 210(table 9.1) wh
katovenus [111]

C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that is consistent with the provided data. The MPC is determined by subtracting the change in consumption from the change in disposable income, which equals 160/200, or 0.8.

Marginal propensity calculation.

$200 billion less $0 billion equals $200 billion in changes to disposable income.

Consumption change equals $210 minus $50, or $160 billion.

MPC = Change in Consumption/Change in Disposable Income, which equals $160 billion/$200 billion and is equal to 0.8.

There is a 0.8 marginal tendency to consume.

Step 2

This is how consumption function is defined.

C = a + bY

Where,

a = Consumption at zero income level

b = MPC

In given case,

$50 billion would be consumed at a level of income zero.

MPC is 0.8

So,

C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that matches the provided data.
