Answer:

Grew by 2%

Explanation:

Given: nominal GDP =12% positive value cause it grew by 12% during these years.

              Population grew by 4%

              GDP deflator = 6% positive value cause it also grew by 6%

Question says we must find real GDP per person for the 4 year term that the president has served for so we will use the formula to calculate GDP Deflator to actually solve for Real GDP as we know the formula is GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP per person%)/(Real GDP per person%)x100

So we already have the nominal GDP and the GDP deflator therefore we substitute to the above formula:

6% = (12%)/ (Real GDP per person percentage) x100, and now we solve for Real GDP per person%

Therefore we multiply both sides with Real GDP percentage and get:

Real GDP per person %( 6%) = 12% and then we divide both sides with 6%,

Therefore Real GDP is 2% so we also see that real GDP has actual grown by 2% because the GDP deflator grew instead of decreasing where nominal GDP is also positive so if we have a fraction where an answer is positive we know both fraction values must be positive pus if the GDP deflator increases both nominal and Real GDP increase and that’s the relationship they have.

4. What do you think of Toni’s idea of downloading music for free? Do you think this is legal? How can Toni be sure that she is engaging in legal and ethical behavior when she uses the freemusic site?

Is a good idea and it depends in the type of page you are browsing. If the internet page has a disclaimer saying that the music that is offering is free to download and is legal there is no unethical behavor in it.

1. What is the revised net operating income if unit sales increase by 16%? 2. What is the revised net operating income if the se
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

1) NOI = $90,240

2) NOI = 29,250

3) NOI = 133,260

4) NOI = 110,190

Explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete.</em>

<em />

<em>Sales (38,000 units)      $342,000     ($9.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Variable expenses        $228,000     ($6.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Contribution margin        $114,000     ($3.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Fixed expenses                $42,000 </em>

<em>Net operating income      $72,000</em>

1. What is the revised net operating income if unit sales increase by 16%

If unit sales increase, we can calculate this with a 16% increase in the contribution margin.

NOI=CM*(1+0.16)-FE=114,000*1.16-42,000=132,240-42,000\\\\NOI=90,240

2. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price decreases by $1.50 per unit and the number of units sold increases by 25%?

A reduction of $1.50 in price means a reduction of the same amount in the contribution margin per unit (CMu), as the variable expenses stay the same .

Also, the contribution margin increases by 25%, for the increase in units sold (q).

NOI=CM_u*q-FE=(3.00-1.50)*(38,000*1.25)-42,000\\\\NOI=1.5*47,500-42,000=71,250-42,000\\\\NOI=29,250

3. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price increases by $1.50 per unit, fixed expenses increase by $6,000, and the number of units sold decreases by 6%?

The selliing price will be added to the contribution margin per unit.

The units sold are increased 6%.

NOI=CMu*q-FE=(3.00+1.50)*38,000*1.06-(42,000+6,000)\\\\NOI=4.5*40,280-48,000=181,260-48,000\\\\NOI=133,260

4. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price per unit increases by 20%, variable expenses increase by 30 cents per unit, and the number of units sold decreases by 11%?

The contribution margin per unit, with a increase in price and an increase in variable cost, becomes:

CM_u=P-VE_u=9.00*(1.20)-(6.00+0.30)=10.80-6.30=4.50

The units sold is now:

q'=(1-0.11)q=0.89q=0.89*38,000=33,820

Then, the net operating income becomes:

NOI=CM_u*q-FE=4.5*33,820-42,000=152,190-42,000\\\\NOI=110,190

gavmur [86]

Answer:

(A) Payback period for the machine= 3.5 years

(B) Simple rate of return for the machine= 87.5%

Explanation:

Alesu corporation is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $283,850

The useful life is 5 years

The machine would reduce cash operating costs by $81,100 per year

The salvage value is $107,100

(A) The payback period for the machine can be calculated as follows

= cost/amount of cash flow

= 283,850/81,100

= 3.5 years

(B) The simple rate of return for the machine can be calculated as follows

First we calculate the depreciation expense

= 283,850-107,100/5

= 176,750/5

= 35,350

Annual incremental income= cost savings -depreciation expenses

= 283,850-35,350

= 248,500

Simple rate of return = annual incremental income/cost × 100

= 248,500/283,850 × 100

= 0.875 × 100

= 87.5%

Enterprise value = Market value capital and debts - Cash and investments

= 100 million diluted shares × 37.50 per share + $1 billion of debt outstanding - $100 million cash

= $3750m + $1000m - $100m

= $4,650,000,000.
