Correct/Complete Question:
The United States produces computers and sells them to Russia. At the same time, Russia produces cars and sells them to the United States. Suppose there is an appreciation in the dollar. This will cause:
Answer:
increase in imports into the United States and decrease in exports to Russia will occur, which will cause a decrease in aggregate demand and real GDP
Explanation:
Aggregate demand is the total demand for a good or service in an economy at a given time. Real GDP on the other hand can be defined as an inflated value of goods and services in an economy at a certain period of time. An inflation of the dollar will increase imports into the united states as it would decrease the exports to Russia. This because the appreciation of the dollar will affect the prices of both computers and cars. And as such will

Answer:
The optimal production plan gives a total costs of $417,672 for the periods Feb to May
In Feb we will have to hire 26 workers to close the gap between demand and production from our 100 existing workers
In March however, we will have to lay them off (26 workers) to keep our production in line with demand.
In April, we are constrained to 100 workers, thus requiring that we run overtime. The overtime requirement is between 3,060 hours to max of 5,000 hours. Note that inspire of the hours chosen, demand for April still won't be fulfilled.
The best option will be the one that gives us last backlog because of the costs of backorder being extremely costly.
5,000 overtime hours in April is the best option .
In May, we are constrained to our 100 workers, meaning we will fulfill our back orders and also retain inventory in hand of 7,760 units.
The 3 pages attached show how the cost is worked out and the presentation as well.
This question is a bit tricky to answer because it does not state how often interest rate is applied so lets say for the simple 5% interest rate the rate of interest was calculated after 2 years you would pay a total interest of $15 since interest was only calculated once but for the 3% calculating every year with compound it would be a total of 18.27 dollars in interest but then you would have to calculate the 5% simple interest the same way which would total to $30 if calculated once a year being more than the 3% compound. But lets say interest is calculated once a month your total for the 5% simple interest would be $360 dollars interest for those 2 years and the 3% compound would be $406.97 dollars in interest. So over all the less amount of times interest compounds the less interest there is making it more worth than the simple but if the compounding occurs more frequently the simple 5% interest is more worth it. In this situation I think it might just be yearly interest which makes the 3% compound more worth taking for this short amount of time.
Answer:
Sweetpea have a gain of $1,000
Explanation:
When the depreciable property is sold, then the gain or loss will be computed to the extent on the difference among the selling price and the adjusted basis.
So, the adjusted basis will be
= Cost of the basis - Depreciation
= $5,000 - $2,000
= $3.000
Therefore,
Gain or Loss = Selling Price - Adjusted basis
= $4,000 - $3,000
= $1,000
Hence, it is a gain of $1,000.
