Business
1 answer:

Answer:

GDP is an imperfect measure of Economic well being because of : Production of  - Non Monetary Exchange goods , Positive & Negative Externalities goods, Negative Impact goods.

Explanation:

GDP is the total value of goods & services produced by an economy during a period of time.

Although reflecting flow of goods & services in an economy, GDP is still not a perfect measure of well being because :

  • Non Monetary Exchange Goods : Services of family members (housewives), leisure production (eg painting) are non monetary.
  • Positive & Negative Externalities Goods: Benefit or harm to un-involved party, without any monetary exchange. Eg - Education, Pollution.
  • Negative Impact Goods : Goods consumption leading to well being loss rather than well being gain. Eg- Addiction (Alcohol / Smoking).

All these goods change well being : Non Monetary Exchange Goods increase well being , Positive Externalities increase welfare , Negative Externalities decrease welfare , Negative Impact goods decrease welfare.

But, these are still not included in GDP evaluation. So, all these make GDP an imperfect measure of well being.

A corporate bond currently yields 8.5%. Municipal bonds with the same risk, maturity, and liquidity currently yield 5.5%. At wha
max2010maxim [7]

Answer: 35.29%

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds are attractive in that they give the tax benefit of being tax exempt whereas a corporate bond is liable for taxation. The tax rate that will therefore make an investor indifferent between the two bonds is the one that will equate the Corporate bond's yield net of tax to the yield on the Municipal bond.

5.5% = 8.5% * ( 1 - x)

5.5% = 8.5% - 0.085x

0.085x = 8.5% - 5.5%

0.085x = 3%

x = 35.29%

training employees expense                     <u>      50,000</u>

Total expenses                                            6,050,000

the cost before the knowledge of future benefit will come for the development of the software  is treated as expense. The reasoning behind this is the potential uncertainty about the furture at this time. The company didn't know about the likelihood of future benefits.

The toher 8,000,000 million will be amortize over a 4-year period:

8,000,000 / 4 = 2,000,000 depreciation expense

The training wil be considered expense for the period.
