In Macroland, autonomous consumption equals 100, the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.75, net taxes are fixed at 40, plan
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

B) 1,160.

Explanation:

First we must calculate planned aggregate expenditures (PAE) and then determine where Y = PAE:

PAE = consumption + planned investment + government spending + net exports = 100  + 0.75(Y - 40) + 50 + 150 +20 = 100 + 0.75Y - 30 + 50 + 150 + 20 = 290 + 0.75Y

Now we must determine where Y and PAE intercept:

Y = 290 + 0.75Y

Y - 0.75Y = 290

0.25Y = 290

Y = 290 / 0.25 = 1,160

*Planned aggregate expenditure = total planned spending, it differs from GDP because GDP includes unplanned investment.

PAE = C + Ip + G + NX   while  GDP = C + I + G + NX

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

<u>Dingo should reject this project </u>

<u />

Explanation:

sales - operating expenses = controllable margin

controllable margin/operating asset = return on assets

The passage suggests that the high inflation in the United States and many European countries in the 1980's differed from inflat
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

E) It would not necessarily be considered high elsewhere.

Explanation:

The US inflation rate during 1979 was 11.26%, during 1980 it was 13.55%, and during 1981 it was 10.33%. These numbers may seem very high for American standards, but they aren't really high once you compare them to other nation's inflation rate.

For example, if we look at what is happening in two South American countries right now; Currently Venezuela is facing a hyperinflation measured by millions, and Argentina's current inflation rate is around 60%.

Back in the 1980s, hyperinflation rates were much more common. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Nicaragua, all suffered from hyperinflation (inflation rates in the 1,000s).

The US dollar is considered a very stable currency, that is why an inflation rate of around 10% was considered extremely high for American standards, but not so high compared to the rest of the world.
