Answer:

For economists is important to avoid political interferance in the monetary policy. Populist governments often use the creation of money to justify their political programs, causing inflation and distortions on the market.

In the last report of FOMC is highlighted the behaviour of market labour and the lower expectations of inflation.

Explanation:

There are two tools commonly used in political economy to finance government programs: taxation and paper currency print. When the central bank is not independent, the government has an incentive to print money to fund their programs, causing inflation. In economic science has been demonstrated that inflation is always caused by monetary phenomena.

ABC, a chain of candy stores, purchases its candy in bulk from its suppliers. For a recent shipment, the company paid $1,500 and
spin [16.1K]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Amount paid for candy = $1,500

Items received = 8,500 pieces of candy

Group 1 =  2,500 pieces

Selling price = $0.15 each

sale value = pieces sold × Selling price

                 = 2,500 ×  $0.15 each

                 = $375

Group 2 = 5,500 pieces

Selling price = $0.36 each

sale value = pieces sold × Selling price

                 = 5,500 ×  $0.36 each

                 = $1,980

Group 3 = 500 pieces

Selling price = $0.72 each

sale value = pieces sold × Selling price

                 = 500 ×  $0.72 each

                 = $360

Total sale value = $375 + $1,980 + $360

                           = $2,715

Percentage\ of\ sale\ in\ Group\ 2=\frac{Sale\ value}{Total\ sale\ value}\times 100

Percentage\ of\ sale\ in\ Group\ 2=\frac{1,980}{2,715}\times 100

= 72.92%

Proportion of cost for Group 2 = cost × Percentage of sale in Group 2

                                                   = $1,500 × 72.92%

                                                   = $1,093.8

cost\ per\ unit= \frac{cost}{total\ units}

cost\ per\ unit= \frac{1,093.8}{5,500}

= $0.1988

= $0.20(approx)

"Suppose the government guarantees the price of carbon. At this price, the payoff after 1 year is $120,190 for sure. What is the
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: a. U.S. Treasuries with 1 year to maturity

Explanation:

The Government guaranteed the price of the carbon and the payoff is to be one year later.

The opportunity cost will therefore be a similar Government security to the payoff term of the carbon sale which is 1 year.

The Government security with a similar payoff term is the US Treasury bill with 1 year left till maturity and this will be the opportunity cost because instead of the Government issuing and paying out that security they will instead pay for the carbon.

As they apply to business conduct and business decisions, ethical principles A. A) deal chiefly with a company's standards about
bazaltina [42]

Answer: B. D) are not materially different from ethical principles in general.

Explanation:

Ethical Principles are Ethical Principles. It doesn't really matter what context they are being applied to for they are a standard thing with reference of course, to the society the business is based in. For this reason Business Ethics are not materially different from general ethics.

Business Ethics are usually a reflection of the norms and cultures of the society they are based in. Think of it like this, if a company is based in a certain place and adheres to principles that are different from what is considered ethical in that society, do you think that company will be very profitable? I think not. Business Ethics are therefore based on General ethics with an immaterial difference.

If the internal rate of return is used as the discount rate in the net present value calcula-tion, the net present value will be
bezimeni [28]

If the internal rate of return is used as the discount rate in the net present value calculations, the net present value will be  equal to zero. The internal rate of return (IRR) is a financial analysis metric used to estimate the profitability of potential investments.

The IRR calculations use the same formula as NPV calculations. Keep in mind that the IRR is not the project's actual the dollar value. The annual return is what brings the NPV to zero. The IRR is calculated in the same way as net present value (NPV), except that it sets NPV to zero.
