Euphrasia, a mixed open​ economy, was severely affected by a recession that almost paralyzed its service sector. The Euphrasian

government announced a fiscal stimulus package of​ $15,000 billion to boost economic growth. GDP of the economy was expected to increase by 2.5 percent during the following year after the implementation of the fiscal stimulus package.​ However, it was observed that instead of​ increasing, the GDP of Euphrasia actually declined by 0.75 percent that year. Which of the​ following, if​ true, will explain this​ outcome? a. A number of public sector enterprises in Euphrasia were privatized. b. One of​ Euphrasia's neighboring​ countries, which is a closed​ economy, experienced a sudden decline in output and prices. c. The gross saving rate in the economy declined during that year. d. ​Euphrasia's population increased by 4.5 percent that year. e. Oil imports declined as countries exporting oil reduced supply.

Answer:

E) Oil imports declined as countries exporting oil reduced supply.

Explanation:

Oil is extremely important for industrialized nations and since Euphrasia is a mixed open economy, we can assume that it is an industrialized nation. Oil has become the most important energy source for more than 60 years and is the raw material for manufacturing plastic.

During the 1970s and early 1980s the American economy was shattered by an increase in the price of foreign oil and a decrease in its domestic production levels. The importance of oil is also why so many modern wars have been fought over oil production and reserves.

The risk free rate of return is 2.5% and the market risk premium is 8%. Rogue Transport has a beta of 2.2 and a standard deviati
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

20.1%

Explanation:

In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:

<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>

Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>

Putting all the number together, we have:

Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%

<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>

A firm incurs $400 to manufacture a television. In the market, customers are willing to pay a maximum of $600 for the television
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

D. Economic value created.    

Explanation:

The reason is that the economic value created is the difference between the price the customer is willing to pay and the cost that the product actually costs to the firm.

Following is the formula for calculation of economic value created:

Economic Value Created = Value customer willing to pay   -  Cost of product

Here the television costs $400 to the firm and the customer is willing to pay $600 for the television. So by putting the values we have:

Economic Value Created = $600 - $400 = $200

So the correct option is option D.

JL.53 Bob's Bumpers has a repetitive manufacturing facility in Kentucky that makes automobile bumpers and other auto body parts.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a)

Annual demand = 75000 = D

S = ordering cost/set up cost = $53

d = daily demand = 75000/250 = 300

h = holding cost per unit per year = $25

p = Daily production rate = 320

optimal size of the production run =EPQ = sqrt((2*D*S)/(h*(1-(d/p))))

= sqrt((2*75000*53)/(25*(1-(300/320))))

= 2255.659549 = 2255.66 (Rounded to 2 decimal places)

b)

maximum inventory = EPQ*(1 - (d/p))

= 2255.66*(1 - (300/320))

= 140.97875

Avergae inventory = 140.97875/2 = 70.49

c)

Number of production runs = Annual demand/EPQ = 75000/2255.66 = 33.25

d)

Holding cost with EPQ = 2255.66 = 70.49*25 = 1762.25

With EPQ = 500, maximum inventory = 500*(1 - (300/320)) = 31.25

Holding cost with EPQ = 500, holding cost (31.25/2)*25 = 390.625

Savings = 1762.25 - 390.625 = 1371.625
