Answer: 8.75 years

Explanation:

To solve this we can use the brilliant rule of 70 which posits in it's simplest form that an amount will double if we decide 70 by it's required rate.

For example if you want to know how long your 20 billion will take to double given a 15% rate you say,

= 70/15

= 4.67 years.

In that same light therefore, we can calculate for this question thus,

= 70/8

= 8.75 years.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$15,000 

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.

When calculating GDP, only items produced in the current year are added. The house had been sold in 2007. Adding the sale to the GDP in 2011 would lead to double counting.

It's only the amount paid to the agent that would be added to GDP.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

Given

Beginning inventory units = 15,000 units

Beginning Inventory Completed = 60% completed

Current work = 35,000 units started

Ending inventory = 5,000 units

Ending inventory completed = 20% completed

Using FIFO, the production cost report is as follows

First, we determine the physical flow of units;.

This is listed out as follows;

Beginning WIP Inventory: 15,000 units

Unit started this period: 35,000 units

Total units to account for = 50,000 units

Units completed and transferred out: 45,000 units

Ending WIP Inventory: 5,000 units

Total accounted units: 50,000 units

Unit completed and transferred out is calculated by;

Total units to account for - Ending WIP Inventory

= 50,000 units - 5,000 units

= 45,000 units

Calculating the EUP (Equivalent Unit of Production)

Equivalent Unit to complete beginning WIP Inventory

Direct Materials: 15,000 (100% - 100%) = 0 EUP (Direct)

Conversions: 15,000 (100% - 60%) = 6,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Direct)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit in ending WIP Inventory:

Direct: 5,000 units * 100% = 5,000 EUP (Direct)

Conversion: 5,000 * 20% = 1,000 EUP (Conversion)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 0 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 5,000 EUP = 35,000 EUP (Direct)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 6,000 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 1,000 EUP = 37,000 EUP (Conversion)

Note that;

Equivalent Unit started and completed is calculated as follows;

Total Units account for (45,000) - Beginning Unit (15,000) = 30,000 EUP

Why MERCOSUR is trade diversion and what are the impacts of MERCOSUR on firm operations?
poizon [28]

Answer:

MERCOSUR may have made trade more difficult.

Explanation:

It is a trade divergence due to numerous reasons. It influences nations outside the association since they can't offer to those nations as effectively. The idea was to make a worker's union that would enable every nation to get off their feet and strengthen one another. Yet, it winded up harming one another and different nations for the reasons that it made the trade even more difficult than it was before. So, the impacts of MERCOSUR on firms operation are negative; it made trade more difficult, especially with other countries.
