Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

The variable costs are the cost incurred on the variable factors of production. The fixed costs are the costs incurred on the fixed factors.

In the short run, there are certain factors that are fixed and others that are variable. So in the short run, some costs are fixed and others are variable.

But in the long run, there is enough time for all the factors to be changed. So all the factors are variable and cost incurred on these variables is also variable.

So we can say that in the long run, there are no fixed costs.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

88.38

Explanation:

Given;

1 U.S. dollar = 122 Japanese yen

1 British pound = 2.25 Swiss francs

1 British pound = 1.63 U.S. dollars

Therefore,

2.25 Swiss francs = 1.63 U.S. dollars

1 US. dollar = 2.25/1.63 Swiss francs

1 US dollar = 1.38 Swiss francs

since

1 U.S. dollar = 122 Japanese yen then,

1.38 Swiss francs = 122 Japanese yen

1 Swiss francs = 122/1.38 Japanese yen

1 Swiss francs = 88.38 Japanese yen

1 Swiss franc can be used to purchase 88.38 Japanese yen.

Fiscal Policy

cricket20 [7]

Based on the economic data given, and the fact that the government is running a deficit, the equilibrium GDP will be 336.67.

If government spending is cut to balance the budget, the new level of GDP will be 321.67.

The effect of balancing the budget will be a decrease in GDP and a slower recovery from the recesssion.

<h3>What is the equilibrium GDP?</h3>

This is given by the variable "Y" so we can find the equilibrium GDP by solving for it:
C = 50 + .7(Y – T)

Y = C + I + G - XN

C = Y - I - G + XN

Solving gives:

Y - I - G + XN = 50 + .7(Y – T)

Y - 40 - 35 + 10 = 50 + 0.7Y - 14

Y - 0.7Y = 50 + 40 + 35 - 10 - 14

0.3Y = 101

Y = 101/0.3

= 336.67

<h3>What is the new GDP if government spending is cut?</h3>

Government spending will have to be cut to a size that would make it equal to taxes so government spending becomes 20.

New GDP becomes:

= C + I + G - XN

= ( 50 + .7(Y – T)) + 40 + 20 - 10

= 271.67 + 40 + 20 - 10

= 321.67

The cost of buying and leasing is: A. buy: 14720; lease: 14996.

<h3>Cost of buying and leasing</h3>

1. Cost of Buying:

Total loan payment= 385× 48 months

Total loan payment= $18,480

Cost of buying = Down Payment + Loan payment + ( Opportunity cost ×Down payment× X term in years ) - Ending loan estimated value

Cost of buying= 2,000 +$18,480 + (2000 × 0. 03× 4 years ) - 6,000

Cost of buying= 2,000 + $18,480+240-6,000

Cost of buying= 14,720

2. Leasing:

Total Lease payment=295× 48 months

Total lease payment= $14,160

Leasing= Total lease payment + End of lease charges + ( Security deposit × Opportunity cost× X term in years))

Leasing= $14,160+ 800 + (300 ×0.03×4)

Leasing= $14,160+ 800 +36

Leasing=14996

Therefore the cost of buying and leasing is: A. buy: 14720; lease: 14996.

A manufacturer has modeled its yearly production function P (the monetary value of its entire production in millions of dollars)

Vinvika [58]

Answer: P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million.

Explanation:

The Cobb-Douglas production function expresses the technological relationship between two inputs (labour and capital).

Since

P(L,K)=1.47L^0.65 K^0.35 (equation 1)

we simply substitute L=120,000 and K=30,000,000 into equation 1.

Thus, P(120,30)= 1.47(120,000)^0.65 (30,000,000)^0.35

<em>(Recall that L is in thousand of hours and K is in millions of dollars).</em>

P(120, 30)= 1.47(2002.02)(413.99)

Thus, P(120,30)= 1218365.475

P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

P(120, 30)= $1.2 million

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million

Chris purchased a 10 year 100 par value bond where 6% coupons are paid semiannually. Cheryl purchased a 100 par value bond where

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Chris paid $109.68 for his bond. Since he paid a premium for the bond, the YTM is lower than the coupon rate.

Explanation:

yield of Cheryl's bond is 6% since she purchased it at par and the bond's coupon is 6%

if Chris's bond yields 80% of Cheryl's, it will yield 6% x 0.8 = 4.8%

we can use the approximate yield to maturity formula to find the market price of Chris's bond:

2.4%(semiannual) = {3 + [(100 - MV)/20]} / [(100 + MV)/2]

0.024 x [(100 + MV)/2] = 3 + [(100 - MV)/20]

0.024 x (50 + 0.5MV) = 3 + 5 - 0.05MV

1.2 + 0.012MV = 8 - 0.05MV

0.062MV = 6.8

MV = 6.8 / 0.062 = 109.68
