Answer:

increase government spending and reduce taxes

Explanation:

Aggregate demand is defined as the total demand for goods and services within an economy.

When a government wants to increase aggregate demand for goods and services it will need to provide available funds to the public to stimulate spending.

Increase in government spending and reduction in taxes makes more money available to people to spend in the economy.

The more money they have, the more products they will buy. Increasing demand.

Answer: a: increase government spending and reduce taxes

Explanation:

Aggregate Demand is a measure of just how much goods people in the economy demanded in a certain period.

That means it can be calculated as where,

AD = C + I + G + ( X - M )

Where,

C is Consumption

I is Investment

G is Government Spending

(X - M) is net exports.

If the Government increases it's spending, you can see that from the formula, AD will rise as well because Government Spending is one of it's components.

Reducing Taxes also imparts this Formula because less taxes equates to more disposable income which equates to more Consumption. A higher consumption as you can see, leads to a higher Aggregate Demand.

Answer:

Answer:

1. Overhead over applied= $521,000

2. Factory Overhead   Dr.     $ 521,000

Cost Of Goods Sold Cr.    $ 521,000

3. Work in Process,  (ratio)   $521,000 *    7%=  36,470

Finished Goods,              $521,000   *     19%=  98,990

Cost of Goods Sold       $521,000    *    74%=  385,540

Total                        $521,000     100%

4. Difference between the two CGS= $ 136,060

Explanation:

Predetermined Overhead  Costs $1,152,000

Estimated activity level of 72,000 machine-hours

Overhead rate= $ 1152,000/ 72,000= $ 16 per hour

Manufacturing overhead cost $551,000

Actual hours = 67,000

Overhead applied to WIP = 67,000 * 16= $ 1072,000

Overhead over applied= $ 1072,000 - $551000= $521,000

Part 2:

Factory Overhead   Dr.     $ 521,000

Cost Of Goods Sold Cr.    $ 521,000

The Cost of Goods Sold is credited and Factory overhead is debited.

Part 3:

Suppose the overhead is applied in the following ratio

Work in Process,  (ratio)   $37,520          7%   (37520/536,00*100%)

Finished Goods,              $101,840         19%      (101840/536,00*100%)

Cost of Goods Sold       $396, 640        74%     (396,640/536,00*100%)

Total                        $536,000     100%

The  overhead over applied  would be allocated in the following way applying the same ratio as determined above.

Work in Process,  (ratio)   $521,000 *    7%=  36,470

Finished Goods,              $521,000   *     19%=  98,990

Cost of Goods Sold       $521,000    *    74%=  385,540

Total                        $521,000     100%

Part 4:

Cost of Goods Sold ( overhead applied of $396, 640) $1,472,600

Less    Overhead   overapplied      $ 521,000

CGS = $ 951,000

Cost of Goods Sold (overhead applied to WIP & FG) $1,472,600

Less   Overapplied Overhead $ 385,540

CGS=  $ 1087,060

Difference between the two CGS = $ 1087,060- $ 951,000= $ 136,060

To calculate the after-tax cost of debt, multiply the before-tax cost of debt by ________________
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

To calculate the after-tax cost of debt, multiply the before-tax cost of debt by <u>(1 - tax rate)</u>.

Water and Power Company (WPC) can borrow funds at an interest rate of 10.20% for a period of four years. Its marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 45%. WPC's after-tax cost of debt is <u>= 10.20% x (1 - 45%) = 5.61%</u>.

At the present time, Water and Power Company (WPC) has 15-year noncallable bonds with a face value of $1,000 that are outstanding. These bonds have a current market price of $1,329.55 per bond, carry a coupon rate of 12%, and distribute annual coupon payments. The company incurs a federal-plus-state tax rate of 45%. If WPC wants to issue new debt, what would be a reasonable estimate for its after-tax cost of debt (rounded to two decimal places)?

<u>B. 4.47%</u>

pre-tax cost of debt = bond's yield to maturity

approximate YTM = {120 + [(1,000 - 1,329.55)/15] /  [(1,000 + 1,329.55)/2] = 98.03 / 1,164.775 = 0.08416 = 8.416%

approximate after tax cost of debt = 8.4% x (1 - 45%) = 4.62 = 4.62

since I used the approximate yield to maturity, my answer is not exact. That is why I have to look for the closest available option.

Due to inflation and shortages created by supply chain shortages, the price of Paco Rabanne's Eau de Toilette Spray increased
Darya [45]

The sales of Paco Rabanne's Eau de Toilette Spray would fall by 11.25%.

<h3>What is the price elasticity of demand?</h3>

The price elasticity of demand measures the impact of price changes on the quantity demanded of good. When t the price elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic.

Percentage change in the quantity demanded = price elasticity x percentage change in price

12.5% x 0.9 = 11.25%

vfiekz [6]

Answer

The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold

= (440 x 90 + 220 x 80 + 264 x 50) - (440 x 56.7 + 220 x 50.4 + 264 x 31.5)

= (39,600 + 17,600 + 13,200) - (24,948 + 11,088 + 8,316)

= 70,400 - 44,352

= $26,048
