Answer:

D) hamburgers and hot dogs are substitutes.

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect. When the price of one good increases, the demand for other good decreases. It is called complementary goods. In this question, due to the increase in the price of hamburgers, the Ruiz family started taking hot dogs. Therefore, hot dogs price is not increasing. Therefore, it is a substitute good. Substitute goods state that the increase in the price of one good leads to the increase in demand for another good. Therefore, option D is correct.

Normal goods and inferior goods are related to income, so those are not answers.

The long-run aggregate supply curve would shift left if the amount of labor available
liq [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

The long run aggregate supply curve is inelastic and vertical in shape. The reason behind this is that in the long run the output level is not affected by the change in price level. It is rather affected by the quantity of inputs.

A leftward shift in the long run aggregate supply means that the output level is decreasing. This decrease in input in this case is either because of decrease in quantity of labor available,or because of increase in minimum wages the firms are hiring less labor.

So, option a is the correct answer.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Current yield=5.6%

Explanation:

<em>The current yield is the proportion of the current price of a bond earned as annual  interest payment.</em>

<em>Current yield = annual interest payment/bond price</em>

<em>Annual interest payment = coupon rate × face value</em>

                                          = 5.44% × $2000

                                          = $108.8

Current yield

= annual interest payment/price

= $(108.8/1,930.36) × 100

= 5.6%

Note we used the annual interest payment nothwithstanding that interests are paid semi-annually

Stolb23 [73]

Answer: Present value of the cash flows of the company is $1,158,824.

Explanation: Philips industries have the cash flow for $197,000. The industry needs to find the present value of the cash flow and the cash flows growth is decreasing every year by 6%.

The present value of the cash flows for perpetuity with decreasing growth rate is:

Present value = Cash flow for year 1 (C1) / (discount rate - growth)

where, Cash flow for the year 1 (C1) = $197,000

Discount rate (r) = 11%

Growth rate (g) = -6%

Present value of the cash flows (PV) = $197000/[0.11 - (-0.060)]

Present value of the cash flows (PV) = $197000/0.17

Present value of the cash flows (PV) = $1,158,824

Therefore the present value of the cash flows of the company is $1,158,824.
