Answer:

D) per capita GDP decreased for country A only

Explanation:

Per capita GDP is calculated by dividing total GDP by the total population of the country. If the population of the country grows faster than its GDP, then its GDP per capita will decrease.

For example, country A's GDP is $100, and it has 20 citizens, so its GDP per capita for year 1 = $100 / 20 = $5. If the economy grew by 4% and the population grew by 5%, then the GDP per capita on year 2 will = $104 / 21 = $4.95.

If the marginal propensity to save (MPS) is 0.25, investment spending (I) is $600 million, and the government increases its purc
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 0.25

Investment spending (I) = $600 million

Government purchases increases by $150 million

MPC - Marginal propensity to consume

MPC + MPS = 1

MPC = 1 - 0.25

= 0.75

Government spending multiplier = \frac{1}{1 - MPC}

= \frac{1}{1 - 0.75}

= 4

Increase in Real GDP = Government spending multiplier × Increase in government purchases

= 4 × 150

= $600 million

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

d. $4,500

Explanation:

The computation of depreciation expense on the new equipment is shown below:-

For computing the depreciation expense on the new equipment first we need to find out the Depreciation per annum which is here below:-

Depreciation per annum = (Cost - Residual value) ÷ Life

= ($76,000 - $4,000) ÷ 8

= $72,000 ÷ 8

= $9,000

Depreciation for 1 year calendar (July 1 to Dec 31) = Depreciation per annum × 6 months ÷ Total number of months in a year

= $9,000 × 6 ÷ 12

= $4,500

So, the depreciation expenses for the year end up-to 31st Dec is $4,500

Norbert works in a beauty salon. he receives a 50% employee discount for salon services. in 2016, he used his discount to buy $1
Crank
The answer is D. $600. In general, the employee discount didn't result in taxable income to the recipient. The amount that may be excluded in relation to services purchased by employees, however, is limited to 20% of the amount normally charged to non-employee customers. As a result, Norbert would be able to exclude an employee discount up to 20% x $2,000 or $400 with the remaining $600 included in gross income.

Say that Alland can produce 32 units of food per person per year or 16 units of clothing per person per year, but Georgeland can
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

a.Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.

Explanation:

A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other countries.

A person has an absolute advantage in production if it produces more quantities of the good when compared with other countries.

Georgeland produces more quantities of both food and clothes when compared to Alland, so it has absolute advantage in both activities .

The opportunity cost of georgeland in producing clothes = 36 / 18=2

The opportunity cost of georgeland producing food = 18 / 36 = 0.5

For Alland,

the opportunity cost of producing clothes = 32 / 16= 2

the opportunity cost of producing food = 16 / 32 = 0.5

Neither countries don't have a comparative advantage in the production of either clothes of food bedside they have the same opportunity costs in both activities.

I hope my answer helps you
