Answer:

New Trade Theory

Explanation:

New Trade Theory explains one reason why some countries specialize in specific industries for factors other than natural resources, quantity of labor force, or comparative advantage.

This reason is that some industries can only support a limited number of firms around the world. An example of this is the aeronautic industry, which only has a few players, with two giant firms dominating above all others: Boeing (US), and Airbus (Europe).

While the United States and the European Union can specialize in making planes through their respective giant companies, most other countries in the world cannot do so: they neither have the techology, nor the expertise, nor the capital to create a successful competitor for Aribus or Boeing. It is not even clear if the market needs or would support a third industry giant either.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The depreciation expense for 2020 is $215,100

Explanation:

Given

Claxton Company purchased a van on January​ 1, 2018, for​ $820,000.

Useful life = 5 years

Residual value = $103,000

Annual depreciation = ($820,000- $103,000)/5

                                 = $717,000/5

                                = $143,400

At the beginning of​ 2020, the asset would have been depreciated for 2 years (2018 and 2019)

Net book value = $820,000 - 2($143,400)

                          = $533,200

Since the residual value remains the same after a revision of the estimated useful life from 5 years to 4 years

The asset would only have 2 years left for depreciation.

Annual depreciation = ($533,200 - $103,000)/2

                                  = $430,200/2

                                  = $215,100

Cindy invests $3000 in a bond trust that pays 8% interest compounded semiannually. Her friend, Jimmy, invests $3000 in a certifi
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Cindy has more amount than Jimmy.

Explanation:

Amount invested by Cindy P = $3000

Annual rate of interest = 8%

As the amount is compounded semiannually

So rate of interest =\frac{8}{2}=4% %

Time = 20 year

So time period n = 20×2 = 40

So amount own by Cindy A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n

A=3000(1+\frac{4}{100})^{40}=14403.06 $

Amount deposit by jimmy P = $3000

Annual rate of interest = 7.75 %

As the amount is compounded monthly

So rate of interest r=\frac{7.75}{12}=0.322 %

Time period = 20×12 = 240

So amount own by Jimmy A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n

A=3000(1+\frac{0.322}{100})^{240}=6503.650 $

From the calculation we can see that Cindy has more amount than Jimmy.

Credit card companies track your transactions. how can they abuse this?
Alexus [3.1K]
Answer:
Credit card companies can invade your privacy by monitoring all your credit card transactions and making decisions, whether correct or incorrect, about your credit worthiness and your character.

Explanations:
All credit card transactions are logged into a data base which is accessible to credit card companies. 
Therefore credit card companies can form opinions about your credit worthiness on the basis of your credit card transactions.

For example, if you use your credit card to pay for groceries, utilities, and ordinary bills, a credit card company could assume that you are in financial distress and make a decision to reduce your credit limit.
If a person uses a credit card often at a casino or gambling locations, that could also signify to credit card issuers that the person may not be using money wisely, and may not be willing to provide more credit to the gambler.

To sum it up, personal privacy is lost whenever a person uses a credit card. Credit card issuers may form opinions about a card holder that may be correct or incorrect, based on the person's credit card transactions.

You are analyzing a project with 5-year life. The project requires a capital investment of $10000 now, and it will generate unif
Bess [88]

Answer:

NPV= $13160

Explanation:

To calculate the present value you need to use the Net Present Value. The NPV is the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

The formula is:

                      n

<h3>NPV= -Io + ∑[Rt/(1+i)^t</h3>

                     t-1

where:

R t​     =Net cash inflow-outflows during a single period t

i=Discount rate of return that could be earned in alternative investments

t=Number of timer periods

In this exercise:

0= -13000

1= 6000

2= 6000

3=6000

4=6000

5=6000 + 3000 + 2500= 11500

NPV= -13000 + (6000/1.10^1) + (6000/1.10^2) + ... + (115000/1.10^5)

NPV= $13160

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand (PED) is the proportional change in quantity demanded of a good or service if the price changes by 1%. The PED is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the negative percentage change in price.

PED = 37% / -25% = -1.48 inelastic

If PED > 1, elastic demand

If PED < 1, inelastic demand

If PED = 1, unitary demand
