​If, in the long​ run, real GDP returns to its potential​ level, then in the long​ run, A. the Phillips curve represents a struc
Arada [10]

Answer:

C. the Phillips curve is vertical

Explanation:

Philips Curve shows the inverse relationship between inflation rate & unemployment level. High inflation rate implies low unemployment rate; and low inflation rate implies high inflation rates. Economic growth (output rise) leads to inflation & reduces unemployment ; Economic slowdown (output fall) leads to deflation & increases  unemployment.  

However; In long run, real GDP (output level) returns to its potential​ level. So; output level defining the inverse relationship (trade off) between inflation rate & unemployment level, is stable. Hence, inflation rate & unemployment level have no inverse (trade off) relationship & they are unrelated. Therefore, the long run Phillips curve is vertical.

RGDP in the United States has grown at an average annual rate of 3% in the last couple of decades. If the RGDP annual growth rat
Natali [406]

Explanation:

i=interest rate

X=current rate

2X = double current rate

n = number of years

Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:

2X = X(1+i)^n

simplify by cancelling out X

(1+i)^n = 2

substitute i = 3%

(1.03)^n =2

take log

n*log(1.03)  = log(2)

n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years

Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,

n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years

So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth)  sooner

A class-action suit against a utility company resulted in a settlement of $2 million for 70,000 customers. If the legal fees, wh
amm1812

Answer:

Each plantiff receives approximately $22.86

Explanation:

A class action lawsuit is one in which the plaintiff is a group of people, duly represented by a member of that group. In this case, the group of people is made up of 70,000 customers.

To calculate the amount each plaintiff receives, we will first subtract the legal fee from the total settlement, to obtain effective amount to be shared

Total settlement = $2,000,000

Legal Fees = $400,000

Therefore amount received all plaintiff = $2,000,000 - $400,000 = $1,600,000.

Next we will divide total amount to be shared by the number of plaintiff;

Amount each receives = $1,600,000 ÷ 70,000 = $22.857 = $22.86 (to 2 decimal places).

It is important that you know also that legal fees are amounts charge by lawyers on the settlement to be paid when filing a lawsuit. it is usually set as a certain percentage of the settlement amount to be paid.

Terrell Trucking Company is in the process of setting its target capital structure. The CFO believes that the optimal debt-to-ca
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. Terrell's Optimal Capital Structure is 40:60. It means to obtain optimal capital structure in-order to increase value of firm, Terrell should finance 40% of its Assets through Debt and remaining through Common Equity.

b. The optimal Capital Structure is the point where company's WACC is minimized. So, 40:60 is the ratio where Terrell's WACC will be minimized.

Explanation:

The goal of Management is to increase Shareholders' wealth and not to generate profits because wealth is something that is for long-run whereas Profits are temporary. Management would accept projects having negative NPV if its goal is to maximize Profit.

Maximizing Shareholders' wealth means to increase the Share Price whereas Generating a higher EPS is Profit Maximization Strategy. So, you should look for that Capital Structure Point where the Company's Stock Price is Highest.

Thanks!
