A. Saving or personal income
Explanation:
Answer: A target price for farm crops is an example of price floor because it’s fixed ahead of harvests with the interest of farmers in mind.
Explanation: A quick definition of both concepts would be of help. A price floor is usually fixed by government legislation and it ensures that the price of a commodity or service does not fall below a certain minimum. In the case of farm crops, a floor price makes sure that the farmers are guaranteed a level of profit in case there is poor harvest for any reason whatsoever. The price floor must be fixed above the equilibrium price for this to be effective.
A target price is an expectation of the future price of commodities or services, and hence prices are fixed ahead of the harvest in the case of farm crops. This is so because as explained earlier, future conditions might change and become unfavorable, therefore making the current market price unprofitable for farmers. If for example, a sack of potatoes currently sells for $30, the government may fix the price floor ahead of the harvest season at $45 per sack. This implies that after harvesting farmers can still sell at $30. However if the harvest turns out to be bad perhaps due to natural disasters, pests or fungal attacks, etc, then the farmers can go ahead and sell at $45 and possibly higher. No farmer is allowed to sell below $45 (since that is the ‘floor’). That way, farmers would still have some profit guaranteed and would be encouraged to remain in the farming business.
If price changes by a larger percentage than quantity demanded (i.e., if demand is price inelastic), total revenue will move in the direction of the price change. ... Demand is unit price elastic, and total revenue remains unchanged. Quantity demanded falls by the same percentage by which price increases.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $50 per machine-hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead costs= $3,400,000 for indirect labor
Estimated overhead costs= $850,000 for factory utilities.
85,000 machine hours are planned for this next year
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (3,400,000 + 850,000) / 85,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $50 per machine-hour
Answer: Option C
Explanation: The given question relates to the concept of time value of money which in simple words states that the value of money decreases over time. The value of a dollar today will be less than tomorrow.
Hence if a card holder gets grace period to pay the interest before the interest accrues than it means he actually gets to pay lower interest that he could have paid before.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is C.
