Answer: -27.2%

Explanation:

The Real GDP can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Price Deflator which is the current price level for the year.

Price Deflator = (Nominal GDP / Real GDP) * 100

Real GDP = (Nominal GDP/ Price Deflator ) * 100

1929

= (103.6/11.9 )* 100

= $870.588

1933

= (56.4/8.9) * 100

= $633.70787

Percentage Change

= (870.588 - 633.70787) / 870.588

= 0.272

= -27.2%

GDP changed by -27.2% over the 4 year period between 1929 and 1933

The Harrison Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estim
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

the formula used to calculate the cost of equity (required rate of return) based on the bond yield plus risk premium is fairly simple:

cost of equity (Re) = yield of debt (bonds) + firm's risk premium = 11.52% + 3.55% = 15.07%

I'm not sure if the question was copied correctly or not, so I looked for similar questions and it included different numbers.

<em>The Harrison Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estimating a company's cost of internal equity. Harrison's bonds yield 10.28%, and the firm's analysts estimate that the firm's risk premium on its stock over its bonds is 4.95%. Based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, Harrison's cost of Internal equity is: = 10.28% + 4.95% = 15.23%</em>

<em>Another question: </em>

<em>The Kennedy Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estimating a company's cost of internal equity. Kennedy's bonds yield 11.52%, and the firm's analysts estimate that the firm's risk premium on its stock over its bonds is 4.95%. Based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, Kennedy's cost of internal equity is: = 11.52% + 4.95% = 16.47%</em>

What is the safest way to dispose of old bank acvount statements
AysviL [449]
Since we are relying on our bank statements as evidence in many of the scenarios already discussed above, they should be kept for probably five years (maybe slightly longer). If you don't get physical bank statements mailed to your home, you should take it upon yourself to print them out monthly. Canceled checks should be kept for no longer than a couple of years, unless you need them to back up tax deductions and then <span>On tax records, many people would say just three years as that is the longest timeframe the IRS can generally go back and audit you. Three years would not be sufficient, however, as the IRS can go back much longer than this if you are suspected of substantially under reporting your income or other tax fraud. This is a tough one, but I think five to seven years is a good guideline here</span>. Canceled checks should absolutely be shredded before being disposed of.

I hope this answer helps! feel free to ask any additional questions :)

jonny [76]

Answer:

B. an economic profit of $6.50

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached

Price     Q     TR        MR     Output    TC      MC

2.75       3     8.25       -             3         4            -

2.50       4     10         1.75         4         4.5       0.5

2.25       5     11.25     1.25         5         4.75    0.25

2            6      12         0.75        6         5.75       1

1.75        7      12.25   0.25        7         7.75       2

For profit Max MR = MC. MC>MR

At Q = 5, MR = 1.25 & MC = 0.25

Economic profit = TR - TC = 11.25 - 4.75 = $6.5

But at Q = 6, MR = 0.75 MC = 1. Net benefit is negative

natka813 [3]

Answer:Higher income families tend to have more people to support.

Explanation:

Income inequality refers to the differences in income among the populace.

The fact that a family has an high income does not suffice that all the income will be available for his consumption for he may have to give out the less privilege and this will not be captured by the census.

The fact that few move from one to another level of income to another will not disrupt census figure and this hold equally hold for in kind transfer they cannot disrupt census figure and can improve living standard.
