Answer: Independent variable
Explanation: In simple words, independent variables refers to the variables whose variations do not depend on some other related factor.
In the given case, when the price of the premium brand decreases then the sales of brand decreases and vice -versa. However there is nothing mentioned about how the price changes.
Thus, the sales of brand depends on price but the price does not depend on the sales of the brand.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the changes in price represents the independent variables.
Answer:
c. 5.37%
Explanation:
As Coupon rate is Nominal Interest rate and Yield to maturity is effective interest rate.
Nominal Interst rate = Coupon Rate = 8% = 0.08
Inflation Rate = 2.5% = 0.025
1 + real Rate of return =
Real Rate of return = - 1
Real Rate of return = - 1
Real Rate of return = 5.37%
So, the real rate of return on these bonds is 5.37%.
All you have to do is substitute the y values to the equation to solve the corresponding c values which stands for the consumption levels. To illustrate the solution,
when y = 100,
C = <span>120+0.65(100)
C = 185
</span>when y = 120,
C = 120+0.65(120)
C = 198
when y = 125,
C = 120+0.65(100)
C = 201.25
And so on and so forth. The answers would be:
y C
100 185
120 198
125 201.25
140 211
80 172
115 194.75
145 214.25
150 217.5
166 227.9
200 250
Answer:
B. Executive Order 10427 authority emphasizes that Federal disaster assistance is intended to supplement, not supplant, the resources of State, local, and private-sector organizations
Explanation:
An executive order is a directive issued by the President of a sovereign state that has the full backing of the law. It is always directed to the executive arm of the government. An executive order has a legal and constitutional basis and therefor enforceable. There are many executive orders that have been signed by the United States for various reasons depending on the purpose and the president who signed the order into effect. An example of such order is the Executive Order 10427.
The Executive Order 10427 was signed into effect on the 16th of January 1953 by then President Harry. S. Truman. The order is titled, 'Administration of Disaster Relief.' The report in general gave the authority to the federal agencies to offer disaster assistance to those affected by natural disasters. In section six of the Executive order, it elaborates the nature of administration of the Executive order. The section quotes,"Federal disaster relief provided under the act shall be deemed to be supplementary to relief afforded by State,
local, or private agencies and not in substitution therefor."
