Answer: a. increased
Explanation:
Inflation rate = (CPI of second year - CPI of the first year ) / CPI of the first year
= (240 - 238) / 238
= 0.84%
Your wage increased by 3.5% which is more than inflation so your real wage increased by;
= 3.5 - 0.84
= 2.66%
Answer:
Explanation:
A) Energy can be both a fixed cost and a variable cost for a company. This is due to the sense that energy in the form of fixed electricity bill even when no production takes place (telephone bill), a fixed cost and electricity bill when production takes place would be a variable cost
B) An increment in fixed cost will shift the ATC curve to the right while the MC curve would remain the same because MC is the change in variable cost as output increases and is not related to fixed cost.
C) Corn cost is a variable cost for ethanol producer as each unit of corn is used to produce ethanol and thus use of corn is reliant upon how much ethanol is produced. This makes corn a variable input dependent on the production of output, therefore, the cost of corn is variable.
D) An increment in the variable cost will shift the ATC curve to the right and individual MC curve to the right.
I agree with the person above - the correct answer as to which statements are true about credit scores is C. both A and B, which means that c<span>redit scores indeed do reflect how likely individuals are to repay their debts and o</span><span>nly the credit bureaus know exactly how credit scores are calculated.</span>
Answer: Increases the price level by 5 percent
Explanation:
Monetary Neutrality is a theory in Economics that posits that when there is a change in money supply in an economy, the only variables affected are the nominal ones like price level and wages and Real variables like GDP and employment are not affected.
It holds that when there is an increase in money supply, there is an equivalent increase in Price level as well because the value of money has fallen by the rate of the monetary increase. The Price level rising at the same rate is to compensate.
A 5 percent increase in the money supply will therefore increase the price level by 5 percent.
Based on the percentage of readers who own a particular make of the car and the random sample, we can infer that there is sufficient evidence at a 0.02 level to support the executive claim.
<h3>What is the evidence to support the executive's claim?</h3>
The hypothesis is:
Null hypothesis : P = 0.55
Alternate hypothesis : P ≠ 0.55
We then need to find the test statistic:
= (Probability found by marketing executive - Probability from publisher) / √( (Probability from publisher x (1 - Probability from publisher))/ number of people sampled
= (0.46 - 0.55) / √(( 0.55 x ( 1 - 0.55)) / 200
= -2.56
Using this z value as the test statistic, perform a two-tailed test to show:
= P( Z < -2.56) + P(Z > 2.56)
= 0.0052 + 0.0052
= 0.0104
The p-value is 0.0104 which is less than the significance level of 0.02. This means that we reject the null hypothesis.
The Marketing executive was correct.
