an all-time high of 8 % last year. Following this, the central bank came under pressure to reduce inflation to least 4 % in this year.

Which of the following can most reasonably be inferred from the above information? A. The velocity of money increased this year. B. THere is a risk of hyperinflation in Arkensland. C. The growth of GDP in Arkensland has stagnated. D. The central bank of Arkensland must have sold bonds this year in order to reduce the money supply.

Answer: (A) The velocity of money increased this year

Explanation:

First of all, the question says: "which of the following can be most reasonably inferred from THE ABOVE INFORMATION?"

"Above information" here refers to:

"Inflation rate turned out to exceed 4% in the current year, DESPITE Real GDP growth being at the estimated level of 2% AND money supply growth being at the restricted level of 6%"

So why did inflation growth rate still exceed money supply growth rate and real GDP growth rate?

Answer: the velocity of money increased in the current year. Velocity of money is the speed with which money is exchanged in the economy. The fact that the real value of this currency has dropped significantly (due to significant rise in inflation) made individuals lose interest in having a bulk of the currency. Hence, they quickly spend it once it gets to their hands (e.g. as disposable income) and this in turn causes inflation rate to rise.

When Heavenly Cookies prices its sugar cookies at $1.00, they sell 75 cookies. They lowered the price to $0.50 and sold 200 cook
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

At selling price = $1 and No. of units sold = 75 cookies,

Total revenue = selling price × No. of units sold

                       = $1 × 75 cookies

                       = $75

At selling price = $0.50 and No. of units sold = 200 cookies,

Total revenue = selling price × No. of units sold

                       = $0.50 × 200 cookies

                       = $100

Therefore, there is a rise in the total revenue from $75 to $100 and hence, price elasticity of demand for sugar cookies is elastic.

Candy is trying to decide between two job offers. The compensation package for job A includes a $300-per-month health insurance
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Part 1. Monthly  health insurance benefit for job A is $205

Yearly health insurance benefit for job A is $2,460

Monthly  health insurance benefit for job B is $295

Yearly health insurance benefit for job B is  $3,540

Part 2. The yearly value of the life insurance policy for job A is $480

The yearly value of the life insurance policy for job B is $600

Part 3. The yearly value of the 401 (k) match from job A is $3, 250

The yearly value of the 401 (k) match from job B is $5, 760

Explanation:

Part 1. The health insurance benefit per month for job A = $300 - $95 = $205

The annual health insurance benefit = $205×12 = $2,460

The health insurance benefit per month for job B = $400 - $105 = $295

The annual health insurance benefit = $295×12 = $3,540

Part 2. The monthly life insurance plan for job A = $40

The yearly value of the life insurance policy for job A = $40 × 12 = $480

The monthly life insurance plan for job B = $50

The yearly value of the life insurance policy for job B = $50 × 12 = $600

Part 3. The yearly value of the 401 (k) match from job A = 0.05 × $65,000 = $3, 250

The yearly value of the 401 (k) match from job B = 0.09 × $65,000 = $5, 760
