Answer:
Real GDP is not the direct indication of happiness, because happiness is dependent on a number of other factors, which when combined can result in a happy life.
Explanation:
Real GDP is defined as the measure of the value of the output of the economy, in the macroeconomics, which reflects the money value of all goods and services produced in a given year. Here the output of the economy is also adjusted for the changes in prices occurring in the year.
According the referred application 3 of the book, it is true that the people of United States have become less happy despite the real GDP rise over the last 30 years. This is because the growth of real GDP is not able to cope up simultaneously with the increased workplace stress, jeopardized married life, traffic congestion, health problems and deterioration of environment.
In conclusion, it can be stated that Money does play an important role in increasing the happiness. However the factor alone is not able to cope up with all the problems and this is true only when all the other factors such as a conducive working environment, happy married life, healthy life are also accompanying more money.
Answer:
Condominium Cleaning
The creditor is entitled to recover:
= $1,350.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contract price agreed between condominium cleaner and owner = $1,500
Cost of cleaning the oven that was not done by the cleaner = $150
Creditor's claim from the contract price = Contract price minus cost of cleaning the oven
= $1,350 ($1,500 - $150)
b) This means that the creditor will recover less than the contract price because of the oven that was left uncleaned. Since the cost of hiring a substitute to clean the oven is $150, this amount will be deducted from the contract price, and then, the creditor can recover the balance.
Answer:
$68.70
Explanation:
Risk free rate: 3.6 %
Market risk premium: 8.6 %
Beta: 0.65
Current stock price: $64.60
Annual dividend: $1.84
The expected rate of return = 3.6% + 0.65*8.6%
The expected rate of return = 0.036 + 0.0559
The expected rate of return = 0.0919
The expected rate of return = 9.19%
Required return = (P1-P0+Dividends)/P0
9.19% = [(Price + 1.84)/64.60 ] - 1
9.19% + 1 = (Price + 1.84)/64.60
64.60*(0.0919 + 1) = Price + 1.84
70.53674 = Price + 1.84
Price = 70.53674 - 1.84
Price = $68.69674
Price = $68.70

c. liable on the ground that Mesa is an intended third-party beneficiary
Explanation:
In a contract, the third-party beneficiary is a business or a person that benefits from the agreement and the terms of the contract that is made between the two other parties. According to law, third-party beneficiary have certain rights which they can enforced if the contract is not fulfilled.
In the context, Mesa is a third party beneficiary. The Mesa County enters into a contract with New Construct Inc. to construct a court house. Now New Construct Inc. again hires the firm Odell to excavate the land site.
While excavating Odell damages few nearby properties, so Mesa County files a law suit against Odell. But Odell argues that Odell is not in agreement with Mesa County or have not entered into with any contract with the County, so Mesa cannot sue the excavator.
But the court hold that as Mesa County is the third party beneficiary of the contract and have certain rights, Odell is held liable for the loss and should compensate for the loss to the County.
