7 0

Answer:

<u><em>FALSE</em></u>

Explanation:

Remember, total asset turnover is calculated using a ratio that measures how the management was able to use its assets to efficiently increase sales. Usually the total asset turnover is gotten by dividing a<em> company's sales </em>by its <em>total assets.</em>

<em />

To increase sales, management should <em>continue</em> to use its existing assets (not making purchase of any new asset), and at the same time reducing their purchases of inventory.

Which of the following is likely to increase a country's gross domestic product (GDP)?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer: In macroeconomics, gross domestic product (GDP) is a macroeconomic magnitude that expresses the monetary value of the production of goods and services of final demand of a country or region during a determined period, normally one year or quarterly.

GDP can be measured by adding up all the final demands for goods and services in a given period. In this case, the destination of the production is being quantified. There are four major areas of spending: household consumption (C), government consumption (G), investment in new capital (I) and the net results of foreign trade (exports-imports).

And it can also be measured by adding the income of all the factors that contribute to the production process, such as wages and salaries, commissions, rents, copyrights, fees, interests, profits, etc. The GDP is the result of the calculation by means of the payment to the factors of the production. All this, before deducting tax.

Thus the statements "b. An increase in Social Security expenses" as government expenses, "c. An increase in retirement and pension benefits to elderly citizens" as subsidies or transfers, and " d. An individual receiving an annual performance bonus of $5,000" as financial interest are likely to increase a country GDP.

A firm's current profits are $400,000. These profits are expected to grow indefinitely at a constant annual rate of 4 percent. I
Valentin [98]

Answer:

A. $21,200,000

B. $20,800,000

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends

Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Opportunity cost of funds)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)

Let plug in the formula

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.06)]÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.06)]÷0.02

Value of the firm= $424,000 ÷ 0.02

Value of the firm= $21,200,000

Therefore The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends will be $21,200,000

B. Calculation to determine The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends

Using this formula

Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Constant growth annual rate)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)

Let plug in the formula

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= $416,000 ÷ 0.02

Value of the firm= $20,800,000

Therefore The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends will be $20,800,000

For each scenario, decide whether it creates a producer or a consumer surplus. Then, calculate the ensuing surplus.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Alice's consumer surplus =  $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $1

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept

Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept

Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1
