Answer:

GDP [Expenditure Approach] is $7,040,  Depreciation is $920

Explanation:

The formula for calculating GDP [Expenditure Approach] is Consumption expenditure + Investment + Government expenditure + Exports − Imports

Mathematically,

Y = C + I + G +  (X − M)

Where C = $7,000, I = $160, G = $180, (X-M) = -$300

Y = 7000 + 160 + 180 - 300 = $7,040  

GDP [Expenditure Approach] is $7,040  

Depreciation = GDP - NDP

NDP = wages + profits + interest + rent + net factor income of unincorporated businesses

Where wages = $5,900, profits + interest + rent = $220, net factor income from abroad = $0

NDP = 5900 + 220 + 0 = $6,120

Applying Depreciation = GDP - NDP, we have:

Depreciation = 7040  - 6120 = $920

N.B: The depreciation is a measure of the statistical discrepancy between the GDP and NDP

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

129 bracelets and 59 necklaces.

Explanation:

Kings departments store wants to maximize profit by making a combination of its two products necklaces and bracelets. The King store should use a strategy so that it can generate maximum profit with its available rubies, diamonds and emeralds.  

$250a + $500b = Maximum Profit

For rubies : 2a + 5b = 625

For Diamonds : 3a + 7b = 800

For Emeralds: 4a + 3b = 700

Solving the equation we get maximum profit value of $61,750.The King departments stores should make 129 bracelets and 59 necklaces which will bring maximum profit to the store.

romanna [79]

Answer:

The B/C ratio at 6% per year is closest to 1.17

Explanation:

In order to calculate the B/C ratio at 6% per year we would have to make first the following calculations:

Present Worth(PW) of annual operating cost (excel formula) =PV(0.06,10,160000,0) = $1,177,613.93

PW of annual benefit (excel formula) =PV(0.06,10,250000,0) = $1,840,021.76

Present cost (at beginning of project) = $400,000

Therefore, to calculate the B/C ratio at 6% we would use the following formula:

B/C ratio at 6%=PW of benefits-PW of disbenefits/Initial cost+PW of operating and maintenance-PW of salvage value

B/C ratio = ($1,840,021.76 - 0)/($400,000 - $1,177,613.93) = 1.17

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Hurte-Paroxysm Products, Inc. (HP)

The short-run impact of each pricing strategy is as follows:

                                           Alternative 1                      Alternative 2

                             Reduce Price to $170     Maintain Price of $200

Gross profit                        $2,500,000               $3,200,000

Reduction in Gross Profit   $1,500,000                  $800,000

b. (2) maintain the same dollar price of $200, raise the real price in Brazil (to R$800 from R$680)to compensate for the devaluation, and experience a 20% drop in volume.

c. If HP maintains the same real price and same unit volume, the firm's gross profits will be $2,500,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Exchange rate = R$3.40/US$

Current exports of printers per year to Brazil = 50,000

US unit price of printer in dollars = $200

Brazil unit price of printer in R$ equivalent = R$680 ($200 * R$3.40)

Unit price of printer in R$ when reals is devalued = R$800 ($200 * R$4.00)

The reduced dollar price with devaluation, when real price is maintained = $170 (R$680/R$4.00)

Before Devaluation of Brazil's Real (R$):

Sales volume            50,000

Sales revenue $10,000,000 (50,000 * $200)

Direct costs         6,000,000 (50,000 * $120)

Gross profit       $4,000,000

                              Alternative 1                  Alternative 2

                       Reduce Price to $170     Maintain Price at $200

Sales volume                50,000                      40,000 (50,000 * 80%)

Sales revenue      $8,500,000               $8,000,000 ($200 * 40,000)

Direct costs            6,000,000                  4,800,000 ($120 * 40,000)

Gross profit         $2,500,000                $3,200,000 ($80 * 40,000)

Direct costs = $6m ($120 * 50,000)        = $4.8m ($120 * 40,000)
