Answer: c. interest rate falls; investment rises
Explanation:
The Fed buying treasury securities from banks is an expansionary policy when the government wants to increase the money in circulation and increase economic growth.
When the Fed buys Treasury securities from banks, this will lead to availability of funds as prices will be pushed higher and there will be a reduction in the interest rate.
Since there is reduction in interest rate, investment will increase as investors will borrow from banks.
I believe the answer is: D. a change in the cost of inputs changes how much a producer will supply at a given price
Fertilizer is considered to be an input for the avocado since it is an integral part for the avocado producers to transform raw material (Avocado seeds) into a finished product (full grown avocado), Which mean when the cost of fertilizer is increased, the amount of capital needed before their avocado is ready to sell would also increased.
If we used the retail method to estimate the ending inventory first we get the given of the problem that can be used in solving.
Given
Sales - 200,000
Goods available for sale - 261,000 (cost) & 450,000 (retail)
First, we need to get the cost of retail ratio. the formula is
Cost to Retail ratio= Cost/ Retail
261,000
CRR= ------------- = 0.58
450,000
Next is to get the ending inventory by following this steps
Cost Retail
Cost of Goods Available for Sale $261,000 $450,000
- Sales $200,000
------------------
Ending Inventory $250,000
x Cost to Retail Ratio .58
------------------
Ending Inventory $145,000
So, the estimated ending inventory for the month of July is $145,000.
A) it is more accurate than accrual accounting.
