A U.S. exporter sells $150,000 of furniture to a Latin American importer. The exporter requires the importer to obtain a letter

Answer:

5.52%

Explanation:

Cost of Furniture= $150,000

discount= 5.25% (120-day note)

To get the exporter's true effective annual financing cost, we have:

150,000*[1-(0.0525*120/360)] = 147,375

=(150,000/147,375) 365/120-1 = 5.52%

Therefore, the exporter's true effective annual financing cost is 5.52%

This statement reports the revenues and expenses of the club and the changes in the net assets of the company, like depreciation expenses and cost of inventory.  Like the income statement it reports the excess of revenue over expenses or vice versa.  The resulting figure (difference) is not called the net income or loss, but excess of revenue over expenses.

Inflation is 20 percent. Debt is $2 trillion. The nominal deficit is $300 billion. What is the real deficit or surplus
algol13

Answer:

Real deficit is -$100 billion.

Explanation:

Since we have a nominal deficit in the question, what we are to calculate is the real deficit.

The real deficit can be described as the actual or nominal deficit that has been adjusted for the effect of inflation on the debt. Therefore, the real deficit can be calculated using the following formula:

Real deficit  = Nominal deficit - (Debt * Inflation rate) ................. (1)

From the question, we have:

Inflation rate = 20%

Debt = $2 trillion = $2,000,000,000,000

Nominal deficit = $300 billion = $300,000,000,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Real deficit = $300,000,000,000 - ($2,000,000,000,000 * 20%)

Real deficit = $300,000,000,000 - $400,000,000,000 = -$100,000,000,000 = -$100 billion

Therefore, real deficit is -$100 billion.

in a perfectly competitive industry the market price is $25. a firm is currently producing 10,000 units of output; average total
Anton [14]

The firm should produce more output to maximize its profit. In a perfectly competitive industry, firms will have marginal revenue equal to price. Therefore, the marginal revenue is $25.

In macroeconomics, an industry is a branch of an economic system that produces a closely-related set of raw materials, items, or offerings. For instance, one would possibly refer to the wooden enterprise or to the insurance industry. While comparing a single institution or agency, its dominant supply of revenue is generally used by industry classifications to categorize it within a particular enterprise. As an example, the global widespread industrial classification (ISIC) – used at once or thru derived classifications for the professional data of most countries internationally – classifies "statistical devices" via the "monetary activity wherein they especially have interaction". Enterprise is then defined as a "set of statistical gadgets which can be classified into the identical ISIC category". however, a single business need not belong just to one enterprise, which includes when a big business (regularly known as a conglomerate) diversifies throughout separate industries.
