Answer:

The assembly line efficiency is 4.17% (to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

Efficiency is a measure of productivity that is used to determine how well a target is achieved, by finding the ratio of the actual output to the expected output. In this example, the number of units is the output of the assembly line, and the assembly line efficiency is calculated as follows:

Assembly line efficiency = (actual output) /(required output) × 100

actual output = 25 minutes

if 5 minutes = 1 unit

∴ 25 minutes = 1/5 × 25 = 5 units

∴ actual output = 5 units

required output = 120 units

∴ efficiency = \frac{5}{120} *100

= 4.17%

Which characteristic describes the privatization of Social Security?
aalyn [17]
<span>The characteristic that describes privatization of Social Security is option C) enables Americans to invest their Social Security Contributions in the stock market. This is the most accurate option but still not wholly accurate. There are different proposals for privatizing. Most would have the existing funds used to buy into the market and then the individual person would have different options for how their own funds were then handled within the market. For instance they could take over control of their fund and buy/sell their various shares. Or they could move their shares to be handled by an investment company, or even just leave them in the original shares that were bought by the government during the transition to privatization. Bottom line, the individuals would have some control of there shares in the stock market.</span>

05) Assume that prices and wages adjust rapidly so that the markets for labor, goods, and assets are always in equilibrium. What
Kay [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. A temporary increase in government purchases would result in a  reduction in savings, which would, in turn, lead to the implementation of higher taxes by the government so as to match prices and wages.

This would: make output to remain unchanged, real interest to increase and current price level to increase as well.

b. A reduction in expected inflation would lead to an increment in the demand for real money, as people do not expect inflation to increase for a while. Thus, more demand creates a reduction in the price level. Everything else remains unchanged. This would: make output remain unchanged, real interest remain unchanged and the current price level to decrease.

C. A temporary increase in labor supply would make more people have jobs and therefore more people can save. If more people save the interest rates are liable to decrease therefore money demand will increase. This would: make output to increase, real interest to decline and current price level to decrease.

d. An increase in the interest rate paid on money will lead to a higher demand for money. With an unchanged nominal money supply and higher money demand, the price would decline but everything remains unchanged. This would make: output remain unchanged, real interest remains unchanged and the current price level decrease.

hjlf

Answer:

Explanation:

The Net Present Value is calculated by taking the Present Day (discounted) value of all future net cash flows based on the business cost of capital and subtracting the initial cost of investment.

Input Value   Cash flow

CF0                ($21,705)

CF1                   $6,700

CF2                   $6,700

CF3                   $6,700

CF4                   $6,700

Cost of Capital = 7%

Input the values in a financial calculator we get the result;

Net present value = $989.3154

                              = $989.32

Conclusion :

The net present value of this investment is $989.32
