Answer: B. No, this is not part of the Fed's dual mandate of price stability and high employment.
Explanation:
For any economy to grow there needs to be price stability in the economy as it helps investors plan their future spending amongst other things. This is why the Fed has the mandate to keep prices stable.
The Fed however, does not have to maintain the stability of prices in the stock market which can be a very volatile market where the volatility is one of the very ways to make gains.
Answer:
Equilibrium GDP = C+ I+ G+ X
Where: Y = GDP
C = Ca = a+bYd
I = Ig
G = G
X = Xn
Yd = Y-T
T = 0.2Y
Y = C+ I+ G+ X
Y = a + bYd + I +G + X
Y = a + b(Y-T) + I +G + X
Y = a + bY - bT + I +G + X
Y = a + by - b(0.2Y) + I +G + X
Y = a + bY - 0.2Yb + I +G + X
Y = a + 0.8Yb + I +G + X
Y - 0.8Yb = a + I +G + X
Y(1 - 0.8b) = a + I +G + X
Y = (a + I +G + X)/(1 - 0.8b)
That is the equilibrium GDP is Y = (a + I +G + X)/(1 - 0.8b)
Explanation:
Equilibrium GDP is also called equilibrium level of national income. This is the condition that must prevail for planned expenditure to exactly equals planned income or output in an economy. this is represented by the general equation of Y = C+ I+ G+ X-M but for the purpose of this question M which represent import was not introduced.
The consumption function of C = Ca = a+bYd is a Keynesian consumption function, it shows aggregate planned expenditure by household
Ig represents investment expenditure of the firm
Xn represents export while
G represents government expenditure on goods and services
T represents tax which varies with income level
Answer:
net cash from operating activities = $0
Explanation:
given data
net income = $70,000
dividend payment = $10,000
Mortgage repayment = $20,000
Available-for-sale securities purchased = 10,000 increase
Bonds payable = 50,000 increase
Inventory = 40,000 increase
Accounts payable = 30,000 decrease
solution
we get here net cash from operating activities that is express as
net cash from operating activities = net income - inventory increase - accounts payable decrease .......................1
put here value
net cash from operating activities = $70,000 - $40,000 - $30,000
net cash from operating activities = $0
because
- Dividend payments, repayment (mortgage) and debt issuance (bond) financing activities. The purchase of debt or equity instruments (securities available for sale) is an investment activity.
- Operating Cash Flow Investing cash flow excludes this financing. Further, these factors do not affect net income. Consequently, net cash provided by operating activities can be determined by adjusting net income payable in inventory and accounts.
- To differentiate between the cost of goods sold (deducted from income) and cash payments to suppliers, a two-step adjustment is required. The change in inventory is the difference between the prices of goods sold and purchased.
- The difference between the amount payable to buyers and suppliers is the change in accounts payable. Accordingly, an increase in inventories and a reduction in accounts payable is required to change the cost of goods sold to cash paid to suppliers.
