Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

GDP counts consumption, investments, public spending and trade balance. All of these variables affect economic activity. When capital investment decreases, it means that less money will circulate in the economy, which represents a decrease in economic transactions and consequently leads to a cooling of the economy and GDP. An economy with a drop in investment is a recessive bias economy!

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The total non controlling interest after the additional shares are issued is equal to $252,000.

Explanation:

Before the issue Sage co's had 20,000 shares with total equity value of $500,000. After the issue of 5000 shares worth $200,000, the total number of shares and equity would be -

Total number of shares = 25,000 ( 20,0000 + 5000 )

Total equity value = $700,000

Now Thyme inc owns 16,000 number of shares , which means that minority holds 9000 number of shares . Now the price per share would be =

TOTAL EQUITY / NUMBER OF SHARES

$700,000 / 25,000

= $28

NON CONTROLLING INTEREST = Minority shares x Price per shares

= 9000 x $28

= $252,000

An engineering firm measures its output in standard service hours (SSH) per unit, which is a function of the skill levels of its

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The variable cost is $60 per SSH and the fixed cost is $2,000,000 per year. The firm charges $100 for each service per hour. Assume the maximum hours the firm operates (that is the output) is 170,000 per year.

1) To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 2,000,000/ (100 - 60)

Break-even point in units= 50,000 hours

2) %of hours= (50,000/170,000)*100= 29.41%

3) Fixed costs= $1,800,000

Break-even point in units= 1,800,000/40

Break-even point in units= 45,000 hours

The number of units required to cover for fixed costs diminished by 10%.

4) Selling price= $110

Break-even point in units= 2,000,000/(110 - 60)

Break-even point in units= 40,000 hours

The number of units required to cover for fixed costs diminished by 20%.

5) In generals terms, it is easier to increase the selling price compared to decreasing fixed costs. In this case, the best option is to increase the selling price. The effect on income and the break-even analysis is higher than decreasing fixed costs.

Sample (n) = 100

Explanation:

9.63 According to USA TODAY research, the average personal debt (such as loans on cars, credit cards, and so forth) per household in the United States was $17,989 in 2004 (USA TODAY October 4, 2004). A recent random sample of 75 households from New Hampshire yielded a mean personal debt of $16,450 with a standard deviation of $4650. Using the 2% significance level, can you conclude that the current nean personal debt for all households in New Hampshire is different from $17,989? Use both the p-value approach and the critical-value approach.
