Answer:The answer is $134billion

Explanation:

Initial increase in spending = $20billion

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.85

To calculate increase in spending, we use the formula for multiplier

K = 1 / 1 - MPC

K = 1 / 1 - 0.85

K = 1/ 0.15

K = 6.66

K = 6.7 approximately

To calculate how much the spending increase

We use the formula

K = change in national income / change in government spending

6.7 = change in national income / $20 billion

We cross multiply

Change in national income = 6.7 × $20billion

Change in national income = 134billion

Therefore the total spending increase by $134billion

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

$4,412

Explanation:

If the company estimates that $4,412 of accounts receivables will be uncollectible, then it must record that number under the Allowance for Bad debts Account.

That account started the year with a $3,284 balance, it decreased by $1,826 (debt written off), and then must be adjusted by crediting $2,954 so its balance = $4,412 on December 31.

Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 8%.
valkas [14]

Answer:

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.

So, expected return on the stock market will be,

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

In Ricci v. DeStefano, Ricci, a white firefighter, took and passed the City of New Haven firefighter's test, required of all app
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. In Ricci v. DeStefano, the Supreme Court ruled that an employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.

Explanation:

Ricci v. DeStefano is a Supreme Court ruling of 2009, after a lawsuit by nineteen firefighters who claimed to have been discriminated against in terms of career development.  They denounced that they had been discriminated after having passed the admission tests and still had not been promoted, since no African-American candidate had passed the tests. They also denounced that they had not been promoted because the Fire Department did not want to promote a group of new recruits without including within it any member of racial minorities.

Finally, the Supreme Court established that said procedure violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, since in the case equal access to employment was not guaranteed (in this case, favoring minorities over white firefighters), for set different demands for purely racial reasons.
