Answer:

a) 10,000 free trade credit

b) Costly trade    6.466,67

c)    yearly cost  38,800

d) Yes as the total cash outflow to purchase the goods is lower using costly trade

e) The complete amount as it reduces the cashflow needed for the acquisition of the goods

Explanation:

principal x rate x time = interest

Where rate and time should be expressed in the same metric thus, we express the 60 days as portion of a year

500,000 x 0.12 x 60/360 = 10,000 free trade credit

<em><u>costly trade:</u></em>

500,000 x 0.97 = 485,000

485,000 x 0.12 x 40/360 = 6.466,67

cost per year: the cicle repeats every 60 days thus, 6 times per year:

6,466.67 x 6 = 38.800‬

total financial outflow:

with free credit: 500,000

with costly trade: 485,000 + 6,466.67 = 491.466,67‬

As the costly trade generated a lower cash flow it should take this path

ozzi

Answer:

Boeing sells an airplane to the Air Force is purchases by the Government

Boeing sells an airplane to the American Airlines is Investment

Boeing sells an airplane to the Air France is net exports

Boeing sells an airplane to the Amelia Earhart is Consumption

Boeing builds an airplane to be sold next year is an Investment

Explanation:

Purchases by Government represent goods and services bought by Federal,State or Local tier of Government and Air Force is part of the Government

Investment refers to goods bought in order to produce other goods or services,since American Airlines would convey passengers in the airplane,no doubt it is an investment.

Net export exports relate to worth of goods and services provided to other nations less the value of such goods and services the foreign nations provided to ours.Since the sale to a foreign company,it is ultimately a net exports taking import as zero.

Consumption refers to sale of goods and services to private individuals intended for private use.

Building up stock for sale next year is an investment in inventory.

vichka [17]

Answer:

increase

increase

Explanation:

Discretionary fiscal policies are deliberate steps taken by the government to stimulate the economy in order to cause the economy to move to full employment and price stability more quickly than it might otherwise.

Discretionary fiscal policies can either be expansionary or contractionary

Expansionary fiscal policy is when the government increases the money supply in the economy either by increasing spending or cutting taxes.

Expansionary fiscal policies increases money supply which increases aggregate demand, as a result output  or real GDP increases

Contractionary fiscal policies is when the government reduces the money supply in the economy either by reducing spending or increasing taxes

You are thinking about the things that can go wrong on your trip home over the Thanksgiving break. You have booked a flight with
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The probability of you making it home for the holidays is:

= 45%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Probability of Scareways flights being canceled = 38%

Probability of successfully traveling with Scareways = 62% (100 - 38%)

Probability of getting a seat in Walter's car = 72%

Therefore, the probability of making it home for the holidays = the combined probabilities (either Scareways flight or Walter's car)

= 62% * 72%

= 0.62 * 0.72

= 0.4464

= 45%

An investor agreed to sell a warehouse five years from now to the tenant who currently rents the space. The tenant will continue
salantis [7]

Answer:

Net present value of $168,953.93

Explanation:

We will calculate the present value of the cash flow at the investor's rate of return.

First we have the annuity of 20,000 during 5 years

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C = 20,000

time = 5

rate = 10

20,000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.10)^{-5} }{0.10} = PV\\

PV = 75,815.73539

Then we calculate the present value of the final payment of 150,000

\frac{Nominal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

Nominal = 150,000

rate = 0.1

time = 5

\frac{150,000}{(1 + 0.10)^{5} } = PV

PV = 93,138.198459

<u>We add both together: </u>And get the present value

75,815.73 + 93,138.20 = 168,953.93
