Answer:
C) 1.6
Explanation:
The real exchange rate is calculated by multiplying the nominal exchange rate by the price level of the countries:
nominal exchange rate = 2 US dollars per British pound = $2/£
real exchange rate = $2/£ x (US price level / British price level) = $2/£ x 0.8 = $1.6/£
Answer: (C) When a country's real exchange rate appreciates, it imports more and exports less, causing its net exports to fall.
Explanation:
When a country's real exchange rate appreciates i.e the value of its currency increases, it imports more because more products could be bought with the same amount of the currency as a result of its increased value, and it export less because their goods would become more expensive for other countries resulting in reduced demand. Therefore, resulting in the fall of its net export. This is a form of trade balance.
Answer:
Increase, Decrease
Explanation:
A decrease in the supply results in many buyers competing for very few goods. If the demand is constant, the quantity supplied and price have an indirect relationship. A decrease in the volume of supplied results in an increase in price. Many buyers will be competing for a few products causing the equilibrium price to increase.
A decrease in supply will cause the quantity available for buyers to buy to decline. Consequently, the volume purchased will be fewer. Equilibrium quantity will, therefore, decrease.
Answer:
D) 1,500
Explanation:
rent per room =$100 dollars
variable cost= $ 20 dollars
fixed cost =$ 100,000.00
desired profits=$ 20,000.00
volume(V) to meet profit target;
Contribution margin per sale= $100-$20= $80
Profits = revenue-cost
=$20,000= Vx$80-$100,000
=20,000=v80-100000
v80=100,000.00+20,000
v80=120,000
v= 120,000/80
Volume =1,500
