Answer:

Total change in GDP= $360

Explanation:

To calculate the effect of an increase in public spending  and an increase in taxes, we need to calculate the respective multipliers.

Tax multiplier represents the multiple by which gross domestic product (GDP) increases (decreases) in response to a decrease (increase) in taxes.

The formula is:

TMs=MPC/MPS=MPC/(1-MPC)

TMs= is the simple tax multiplier;

MPS= marginal propensity to save (MPS); and

MPC=  marginal propensity to consume.

Spending multiplier represents the multiple by which GDP increases or decreases in response to an increase and decrease in government expenditures and investment.

The formula is:

Spending multiplier= 1/MPS=1/(1-MPC)

Tax multiplier= 0,75/0,25= 2,8

Spending multiplier= 1/0,25=4

Change in GDP (by tax increase)= tax multiplier*change in tax

=2,8*(-300)=-840

Change in GDP (by government spending increase)= spending multiplier*increase in government spending =4*300=$1200

<u>Total change in GDP</u>=1200-840= $360

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

  see below

Explanation:

The balance in Lucia's account is 1.05 times the original deposit, reflecting addition of 5% interest for the year.

The ticket price is the original price multiplied by (1 + inflation rate). The number of tickets that Lucia can purchase is the account balance divided by the ticket price. The quotient is rounded down to the nearest integer.

The "real interest rate" is the percentage change from the original number of tickets that could be purchased.

rodikova [14]

Answer: The price of the tied good is $20.

Explanation: The practice of tying is used to package products in such a way that the price of the tied (combined) good is closer to the buyers total willingness to pay for the two goods.

In this case, the total willingness to pay of Carnivore is $20+$7=$27

While, that of Leafygreens is $8+$12=$20

Thus, the producer will sell the combined good at $20 as it this price both the consumers will buy the tied good. If the producer sells it at $27, then only the Carnivore will buy the good but Leafygreens will not.

Thus, with zero marginal cost of serving additional consumer it is better for the producer to sell at $20.

sveticcg [70]

Solution :

1. Ordering quantity         500      1000      10000     30000        80000

2. No. of orders                 16          8             0.8         0.27            0.1

3. Average inventory        250      500       5000      15000        40000

4. Value of average         2750    5250      50000  142500      370000

   inventory

5. Monthly total cost

a). Cost of material        88000   84000    80000   760000     740000

b). Ordering cost           19200      9600       960          320           120

c). Carrying cost                27.5       52.5       500        1425         3700

Total monthly cost        107227.5 93652.5  81460   77745       77820

Among the total monthly cost, $ 77,745 is the least cost.

Therefore, the optimum order size of quantity = 30,000

The number of orders per month = 8000/30000 = 0.267

Time between two consecutive orders = 30000/8000 = 3.75 months
