Answer:

Answer is option b, i.e. purchase of natural gas by U.S. households.

Explanation:

Consumption component of U.S. GDP includes purchase of various durable goods, non-durable goods, and also various intangible services. But anything that is purchased as a means of investment rather than for personal consumption is not regarded as consumption component in GDP. Here, purchase of newly constructed houses is an asset and thus, is not included in these components. Similarly, purchase made for business purposes is also excluded from the list of consumption components.

How does consumer response to advertising vary on different days of the week and at different times of the day

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The theme is very complex, however a short explanation of that type of distribution is given below with and example.

Explanation:

To begin with, that distribution of variables will totally depend on the type of product that is being under study. Having that in mind, the distribution to the advertising will be more or less strong on the consumer's attention depending on the day. Therefore that, for example, if the case is about an alcoholic drink or something related to the weekends like clothes for going out or something like that, then the advertising will cause more impact in the consumer on fridays and saturdays and that will be like that because the consumer will now be exposed to the possible situation of going out that exact night so he or she might want to consumer an alcoholic drink.

It will be the same with the hours of every day, if the advertising is shown late at night but before party time, then the consumers will be exposed to that commercial and will the necessity of buying, psychologically speaking.

5. Suppose Hillard Manufacturing sold an issue of bonds with a 12-year maturity, a $1,000 par value, a 10% coupon rate, and semi

balandron [24]

Answer:

Price of bonds = $1,389.73

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of bond for Hillard can be worked out as follows:

Step 1

Calculate the PV of interest payments

Semi annual interest payment

= 10% × 1,000 × 1/2 =50

PV of interest payment

A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r- semi-annual yield = 5%/2 = 2.5%

n- 10× 2 = 20.

Note that the bonds now have 10 years to maturity because it was issued 2 years ago

PV on interest = 50 × (1-(1.025^(-20)/0.0425 = 779.45

Step 2

PV of redemption Value

PV = $1,000 × (1.025)^(-20) = 610.27

Step 3

Price of bond

= 779.45+ 610.27 = $1,389.73

Price of bonds = $1,389.73
