Answer:
a. The situation can be shown with a normal equilibrium supply and demand graph (as shown in the attached file).
b. There is a shift in demand from left to right due to the crowding out of the deficit budget.
Explanation:
If the government is running a deficit budget, there will be an increase in the total demand for loanable funds. This is because the government must borrow money to balance the situation. As a result, the interest rate will increase. However, the private demand will remain the same and investment will be less due to the high interest rate.
Answer:
a. Look directly at speakers and acknowledge their comments.
Explanation:
During a discussion of concern about approaches used with aggressive patients in the Emergency Department, several staff members express concern for their safety. As a leader, the nurse manager should look directly at speakers and acknowledge their comments. As being a leader, the nurse manager should make everyone feel good where everyone should be getting a message that he or she has been properly given importance and has been listened as well. In this way, the manager will be sending a positive message for the rest of employees that the administration care about them, their feelings, safety and work environment. Consequently, they will feel motivated and be more productive as well.
Answer:
a. Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost per unit
Contribution margin = $15 - $10
Contribution margin = $5 per unit
Break even point in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin
Break even point in units = $1,750,000 / $5
Break even point in units = 350,000 units
b. Required sale = Fixed cost + Target profit / Contribution margin
Required sale = $1,750,000 + $400,000 / $5
Required sale = $2,150,000 / $5
Required sale = 430,000 units
Answer: Consumption = $6 trillion
government purchases = $1.3 trillion
national saving = $0.7 trillion and
investment = $0.7 trillion
Explanation:GDP is the market value of all final goods and services within an economy during a given period.
GDP = Consumption + Investment/National Savings + Government Expenditure/purchases (in a closed economy)
National Savings/ Investment = Private saving + public saving = $0.5 trillion +$ 0.2 trillion = $0.7 trillion.
Government purchases = Taxes - Public saving = $1.5 trillion - $0.2 trillion = $1.3 trillion
Since, GDP = Consumption + Investment/National Savings + Government Expenditure/purchases (in a closed economy)
Therefore, Consumption = GDP - Investment - Government Expenditure
Consumption = $8trillion - $0.7trillion - $1.3trillion = $6 trillion
Answer:
Portfolio return = 0.035 or 3.5%
Explanation:
The portfolio return is a function of the weighted average of individual stocks' returns that form up the portfolio. The formula to calculate the portfolio return is as follows,
Portfolio return = wA * rA + wB * rB + ... + wN * rN
Where,
- w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio
- r represents the return of each stock
First we need to calculate the investment of each stock,
Abbott = 200 * 50 = $10000
Lowes = 200 * 30 = $6000
Ball = 100 * 40 = $4000
Portfolio return = (10000 / 20000) * -0.10 + (6000/20000) * 0.20 +
(4000/20000) * 0.125
Portfolio return = 0.035 or 3.5%
