Explanation:
Opportunity costs represent the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when choosing one alternative over another. While financial reports do not show opportunity cost, business owners can use it to make educated decisions when they have multiple options before them.
Because by definition they are unseen, opportunity costs can be easily overlooked if one is not careful. Understanding the potential missed opportunities foregone by choosing one investment over another allows for better decision-making.
Opportunity cost analysis also plays a crucial role in determining a business's capital structure. While both debt and equity require expense to compensate lenders and shareholders for the risk of investment, each also carries an opportunity cost. Funds used to make payments on loans, for example, are not being invested in stocks or bonds, which offer the potential for investment income. The company must decide if the expansion made by the leveraging power of debt will generate greater profits than it could make through investments.
Base on my research, the gap that is stated in the problem is the inflationary gap. This is the amount of the real GDP go beyond potential full-employment GDP. Upon eliminating this gap the government forms a policy that will allow the potential GDP to be equal to the real GDP and higher the price level.
Answer:
Cost of goods sold : $ 120.000
Explanation:
income before taxes : 63000 / 0.7 = 90000
(+) expenses 90.000
Total 180.000

Answer:
option (D) $50 billion.
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Additional investment spending = $20 billion
MPC = 0.6
Now,
Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - mpc) ] × Investment
or
Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - 0.4) ] × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = (1 ÷ 0.4) × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = 2.5 × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = $50 billion
Hence.
the correct answer is option (D) $50 billion.
Answer:
d. 108 days
Explanation:
Average Inventory = (Beginning balance + Ending balance) / 2
Average Inventory = ($139,000 + $158,000) / 2
Average Inventory = $297,000 / 2
Average Inventory = $148,500
Inventory Turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
Inventory Turnover ratio = $501,000 / $148,500
Inventory Turnover ratio = 3.37 times
Average days to sell inventory = Days in a year / Inventory Turnover ratio
Average days to sell inventory = 365 days / 3.37 times
Average days to sell inventory = 108.31 days
