Answer:
c. fiscal and monetary policies that impact aggregate demand do not impact the natural rate of unemployment.
Explanation:
Short run Philips Curve is downward sloping, due to inverse relationship between unemployment rate & inflation rate. High economic activity implies more inflation rate, less unemployment. Low economic activity implies less inflation rate, more unemployment.
However, the inverse relationship between inflation & unemployment is only in short run & not in long run. In long run, this inflation - unemployment trade off doesn't exist. So, any fiscal or monetary policy affecting aggregate demand & consecutively inflation rate, do not affect the natural rate of unemployment (combination of frictional & structural unemployment rate) in long run.
The market system is also known as capitalism, while the command system is also known as communism. The market system is owned by private ownership, businessman and companies, hence it has capitalism concept. The command system is owned by a community or public.
Hence it can be said that
The market system is also known as <u>capitalism</u>, while the command system is also known as <u>communism</u>.
Answer:
They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.
Explanation:
The formulation of the linear programming is:
Objective function:
Restrictions:
- High-grade ore: 
- Medium-grade ore: 
- Low-grade ore: 
- No negative hours: 
We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.
In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.
In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.
Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.
(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).
The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.
The cost function graph is attached.
Answer: Increasing current profits when doing so lowers the value of the company's equity.
Explanation:
The main purpose of a company is to increase the wealth of shareholders. In their capacity as stewards for the company, managers should be working therefore to achieve this goal.
When management neglects this goal and begins to seek an improvement in their welfare and wealth instead of the shareholder', this is an Agency problem.
If a Financial manager is increasing current profits even though doing so will lower the value of the company's equity, this can create an agency problem because the shareholders are suffering but the finance manager might get rewarded for increasing profits.
Answer and Explanation:
The adjustment should be as follows
Unearned Rent Revenue $47,400
To Rent Revenue $47,400
(Being recording of revenue earned is recorded)
Here unearned rent revenue is debited as it decreased the liabilities and the rent revenue is credited as it increased the revenue. Also liabilities and revenue contains the normal debit balance
The working is shown below:
= $71,100 × 8 months ÷ 12 months
= $47,400
The eight months are calculated from May 1 to December 31
