If a surfboard is produced this year, but not sold until next year, how is it counted in this year's gdp and not next year's?

1 answer:

6 0

The value of the goods produced is recorded for the the current year GDP. The year of production not the year of the sale is where the product being produced needs to be recorded within. If it is sold the following year, the sale will then be recorded in the year it is sold in.

Poskey Corporation uses an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools. The company has provided the following

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}&Cost&Assembly&Setting Up&Other&Total\\wages&349,000&226,850&69,800&52,350&349,000\\Depreciation&290,000&101,500&58,000&130,500&290,000&Utilities&199,000&29,850&149,250&19,900&199,000&Total&838,000&358,200&277,050&202,750&838,000&\end{array}\right]$

Explanation:

We mulitply each line by the stated percent of each activity

for example

Setting Up % x Utilities= Utilities cost assigned to setting up

199,000x 75% = 149,250

Assembly % Depreciation= Depreciation cost assigned to assembly

35% x 290,000 = 101,500

This process must be done to assign each portion of cost.

Refer to Exhibit 7.3, which shows the U-shaped cost curves for a producer. A is the marginal cost curve, B is the average variab

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

U shaped Curves are all of the three : A marginal cost curve , B average variable cost curve , C average (total) cost curve

Vertical Distance between B) Average Variable Cost Curve , C) Average Total Cost Curve is Average Fixed Cost

Explanation:

Marginal Cost [MC] is addition to total cost, when an additional unit of output is produced. It is the rate of change in Total Cost. As total cost increases at decreasing rate first, then at increasing rate ; MC curve falls first & then rises & hence is U shape

Average Cost [AC] is average total cost per unit of output. It is also U shape as it falls first & then rises, due to total cost first increasing at decreasing rate & then increasing at increasing rate.

Total Cost [TC] changes only due to change in total variable cost [TVC] , as total fixed cost is constant. So, TVC changes in same pattern as TC, first at decreasing rate & then at increasing rate. This makes Average Variable cost [AVC] rise first, fall then i.e U shape

Total Cost is the total production expenditure on all (fixed & variable) factors of production.

TC = TFC (total fixed cost) + TVC

AC = AFC (average fixed cost) + AVC

AC - AVC = AFC. Difference between AC & AVC is AFC. This distance keeps on falling with increase in output but never becomes zero (the curves keep on coming closer but never intersect). Such because TFC is constant, AFC = TFC / Q keeps on falling with increase in output

You want to buy a house that costs $140,000. You have $14,000 for a down payment, but your credit is such that mortgage companie

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Cost of house = $140,000

Down payment = $14000

Take back mortgage = 126000 = PV

Rate (r) = 5%

Yearly payment one can afford = 22000

a. If the loan was amortized over 3 years, how large would each annual payment be? Could you afford those payments?

Number of period = 3

Using the relation:

PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n

PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-3

PMT = 6300 / (1-0.8638375)

PMT = 46,268.23

He won't be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is larger than the affordable amount of $22000

b. If the loan was amortized over 30 years, what would each payment be? Could you afford those payments?

PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n

PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-30

PMT = 6300 / (1-0.2313774)

PMT = 8196.48

He would be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is lower than the affordable amount of $22000

c. To satisfy the seller, the 30-year mortgage loan would be written as a balloon note, which means that at the end of the third year, you would have to make the regular payment plus the remaining balance on the loan. What would the loan balance be at the end of Year 3, and what would the balloon payment be?

Present value of remaining balance after the 3rd year:

Present Value (PV) = PMT[(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]

Where

PMT = periodic payment = 8196.48

r = Interest rate = 5% = 0.05

n = number of periods = 30 - 3 = 27

PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1 + 0.05)^-27) / 0.05]

PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1. 05)^-27) / 0.05]

PV = 8196.48[0.7321516 / 0.05]

PV = 120,021.32

Balloon payment :

120,021.32 + 8196.48 = 128,217.80
