Answer:
$120 billion
Explanation:
Economy operating at $300 billion above its natural level of output.
Marginal propensity to consume, MPC = 3/5 = 0.6
For closing this expansionary gap, the government have to decrease its spending by the amount calculated as follows:
Spending multiplier:
= 1/ (1 - MPC)
= 1/ (1 - 0.6)
= 1/ 0.4
= 2.5
Hence, the government spending reduces by
= Expansionary gap ÷ Spending multiplier
= $300 ÷ 2.5
= $120 billion
Answer:
$720 and $180
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:
Premium for 3 years = $2,700
So, premium for 1 year = $2,700 ÷ 3 = $900 per year
Manufacturing operation percentage = 80%
Selling and administrative operation percentage = 20%
So, Premium for manufacturing operation = $900 × 80% = $720
And Premium for selling and admin operation = $900 × 20% = $180
Answer:
<em>b. $ 90,000.</em>
Explanation:
Net realizable value(Market value) for apparel=Selling price minus associated selling expenses e.g sales commission.
Market value for Apparel= $ 120,000-(120,000*10%)
=$ 120,000-12,00
Market value for Apparel =$108,000
Apparel cost=$90,000
The lower of the above costs is $90,000.
Lower of cost or market is one of approaches of valuing and reporting inventory. Ending inventory is usually stated at historical cost. When original cost of the ending inventory is greater than the net realizable value, meaning that the inventory has lost value. The inventory has decreased in value below historical cost, then its carrying value is reduced and reported on the balance sheet. The method for reporting this is called current market value.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": Kelvin buys more donuts at $0.80 per donut than at $0.95 per donut, other things equal.
Explanation:
The demand law states that if the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded for that good or service will increase. On the other hand, if the price of a god or service increases, the quantity demanded will decrease. The price-quantity demanded of the demand law is inversely proportional, <em>ceteris paribus</em>.
Thus, Kelvin's case is an example of the demand law since he purchases more donuts when the price is lower ($0.80) and purchases fewer donuts when the price is higher ($0.95).
Answer:
