Answer:

This machine’s accounting rate of return is 13 %=

Explanation:

Accounting Rate of return: The accounting rate of return is also known as average rate of return in which the net income is proportionate to the average investment.

In mathematically,

Accounting rate of return = Net income ÷ Average investment

where, average investment = (Purchase cost + salvage value) ÷ 2

                                              = ($700,000 + $100,000) ÷ 2

                                              = $400,000

Now, apply the above formula

So the Accounting rate of return = $52,000 ÷ $400,000 = 13%

Hence, this machine’s accounting rate of return is 13 %

Aleks [24]

Answer:

b) households will save more because they will expect higher taxes in the future

Explanation:

The Ricardian Equivalence proposition is one of the pillars of classical economics, which sadly has proven to not work very well in the real world. According to classical economists, and their quantity theory of money plus the Ricardian Equivalence, recessions do not exist because it is impossible for them to exist. But in the real world, that is not true. Recessions exist, e.g. the US is in a recession since the first quarter of 2020 (even before the current health crisis). When real people lose their jobs or are afraid to lose their jobs, their spending habits change.

On the other hand, when real people get a tax refund or tax cut, they generally spend it, they will not save it to pay future taxes. That is why car sales increase during February after checks form the IRS are handed out.

Theoretically, classical economics is great. The problem is that we are human beings, and as such, our behavior cannot be controlled or determined by what we should or should not do. This is exactly why the velocity of money (quantitative theory of money) is not constant.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

c. 25 percent.

Explanation:

The computation of the reserve requirement percentage is shown below:

Given that

Deposits made = $8,000

Loans = $6,000

So the required reserve is

= deposits made - loans

= $8,000 - $6,000

= $2,000

Now the required reserve is

= $2,000 ÷ $8,000

= 25%

Hence, the correct option is c. 25 percent

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered
