Answer:

$206,608.28

Explanation:

in order to determine how much is Kathleen's bonus worth in equivalent dollars 10 years ago, we need to use the present value formula:

  • present value = ?
  • future value = $300,000
  • n = 10
  • r = 3.8%

present value = future value / (1 + r)ⁿ = $300,000 / (1 + 0.038)¹⁰ = $300,000 / 1.452 = $206,608.28

If her dad's bonus was equivalent to hers, then it should have been around $206,608.28.

Answer:

=$206,608.28

Explanation:

<em>Inflation erodes the value of money,  so to determine the real value of any given amount (nominal) we need to adjust it for infalton.</em>

In the same vein, to calculate her dad's bonus 10 years ago,  we will have to determine the real value of $300, 000 using the annual  inflation rate.

This is determined as follows:

Real bonus = 300,000/1.038

                   =  $206,608.28

The value of her dad's bonus 10 years ago

                  =$206,608.28

If output is produced according to Q = 5Lk (L is the quantity of labor and k is the quantity of capital), the price of K is $12,
sattari [20]

Answer:

The option E is correct

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The output manufactured to Q = 5Lk

Where L= Labor quantity

k=Capital quantity

The price of K= $12

The price of L =$6

Now,

We find the combination of both K and L that will produce 4,000 units of output.

MPL/MPK is defined as the cost minimizing combination = w/r

Thus,

MPL/MPK = D(Q)/dl = 5k

same will be done for L,

MPL/MPK = D(Q)/dk = 5L

We divide 5K and 5L

So,

5k/5L =$6/$12

k/L = 1/2

Thus,

k =L/2

Now, when we substitute the value  L = 2k in Q we have the following below:

Q = 5k * (2k)

Given that Q = 4000

So,

4000=10k2

4000=k2

we divide

k =20

L = 2k = 2820

= 40

Therefore, L =40, k = 20
