Question:

The price tag on a golf ball in 1975 read $0.20, and the price tag on a golf ball in 2005 read $2.00. The CPI in 1975 was 52.3, and the CPI in 2005 was 191.3. In 1975 dollars, a 1975 golf ball cost $0.20 and a 2005 golf ball cost

a. $0.55, so golf balls were cheaper in 1975.

b. $0.55, so golf balls were cheaper in 2005.

c. $7.32, so golf balls were cheaper in 1975.

d. $7.32, so golf balls were cheaper in 2005.

Answer:

a. $0.55, so golf balls were cheaper in 1975.

Explanation:

In 1975 dollars,

Price of golf ball in year 2005 x (CPI in 1975/CPI in 2005)

$2*(52.3/191.3) = 2 x 0.273 = 0.546 ≅ $0.55

So golf balls were cheaper in 1975 at the rate $0.20 as compared to $0.55.

Bonus:

If were asked to find the the price of 1975 golf ball in 2005 dollars, then

Price of golf ball in the year 1975 x (CPI in 2005/CPI in 1975)

$0.20*(191.3/52.3) = 0.20 x 3.65 = $0.73

so it means that in 1975 the price of golf ball would have $0.73 as compared to $2 in 2005 dollars.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

$1,138.92

Explanation:

Current bond price can be calculated present value (PV) of cash flows formula below:

Current price or PV of bond = C{[1 - (1 + i)^-n] ÷ i} + {M × (1 + i)^-n} ...... (1)

Where:

Face value = $1,000

r = coupon rate = 7.2% annually = (7.2% ÷ 2) semiannually = 3.6% semiannually

C = Amount of semiannual interest payment = Face value × r

C = $1,000 × 3.6% = $36

n = number of payment periods remaining = (12 - 1) × 2 = 22

i = YTM = 5.5% annually = (5.5% ÷ 2) semiannually = 2.75% semiannually  = 0.0275 semiannually

M = value at maturity = face value = $1,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV of bond = 36{[1 - (1 + 0.0275)^-22] ÷ 0.0275} + {1,000 × (1 + 0.0275)^-22}

PV of bond = $1,138.92.

Therefore, the current bond price is $1,138.92.

A farmer sells a bushel of corn to the supermarket for $12. The supermarket then sells the corn to customers for $25. What is th
allsm [11]

Answer:

$ 25

Explanation:

As per the description, the exact amount that is being contributed from the corn bushel to the Gross Domestic Product would be $ 25. The price at which the farmer sold it to the supermarket would not be included in the GDP because it would be considered as an intermediary good because the good purchased for the resale purpose is not included in GDP as it leads to double-counting. Thus, <u>only the price of the final good i.e. $ 25 would be included in GDP as it will now be used for final consumption by the customers</u>.

Denny Corporation is considering replacing a technologically obsolete machine with a new state-of-the-art numerically controlled
inn [45]

Answer:

26.4%.

Explanation:

Net Profit:

= Saving of Labor & other Costs - Maintenance Cost of Machine -  Depreciation On Machine (100,000/ 16 years)

= $40,000 - $10,000 - $6,250

= $23,750

Initial Investment:

= Cost of new Machine - Salvage value of old machine

= $100,000 - $10,000

= $90,000

Simple Rate of Return = Net Profit ÷ Initial Investments

= $23,750 ÷ $90,000

= 0.264 × 100

= 26.4%
