Answer:

Real purchasing power increase= 2.16%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You deposit $1,900 in your savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 3.25%. The inflation rate is 1.09%.

In this example, we have two different and opposite effects. The interest rate increases your purchasing power. If the inflation rate is 0, the purchasing power will increase (in one year) 3.25%.

The inflation rate decreases the purchasing power of nominal income.

Real purchasing power increase= annual interest rate - inflation rate

Real purchasing power increase= 3.25 - 1.09= 2.16%

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

$7,650

Explanation:

Ending work in progress = Beginning Work in progress + Units started - Units completed and transferred

= $22,000 + $90,000 - $97,000

= $15,000

Equivalent units = Units completed and transferred + Ending work in progress

= $97,000 + $15,000

= $112,000

Total cost = Material cost (Beginning) + Material cost during the month

= $11,000 + $46,100

= $57,100

Cost per equivalent unit = $57,100 ÷ $112,000

= $0.51

Materials cost of the work in process inventory at March 31 = Ending work in progress × Cost per equivalent unit

= $15,000 × $0.51

= $7,650

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,634,000 / 86,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $19 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead to each unitary product:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Xactive= 19*1.4= $26.6

Pathbreaker= 19*1= $19

<u>Finally, the unitary cost of each product:</u>

Xactive= 63.8 + 17.2 + 26.6= $107.6

Pathbreaker= 50 + 12 + 19= $81

GDP includes a. final goods and inventories of imported intermediate goods. b. intermediate and final goods to count all goods a
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: c. only final goods to avoid double counting when including intermediate goods

Explanation:

The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is an economic measure that aims to quantify the strength of an economy by checking it's Economic Activity.

When Calculating GDP, the FINAL value of goods and services produced WITHIN a country are the only amounts included to avoid Double Counting of products.

For example, if in making a television, the company making the TV bought electrical parts for $100 and the LED screen for $50 with labour costs of $50 and then sold it to a store for $300 that then sells the Television at $500, $500 is the amount that is included in GDP calculation. None of those other figures will be added again because they are already implicitly included in the final $500.
