The answer is he is not part of the labor force. Since the labor force is comprises of the employed and the unemployed. The remainder— persons who are neither employed nor unemployed are not in the labor force. This group comprises retired persons, students, those taking care of children or other family members, and others who are neither working nor seeking work. Since the mid-1990s, naturally fewer than 1 in 10 people not in the labor force stated that they want a job.
Answer:
the expected return on the portfolio is 15.50%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the portfolio is shown below:
Total investment is
= $2,700 + $3,800
= $6,500
Now
Expected return of portfolio is
= ($2,700 ÷ $6,500) × 12 + ($3,800 ÷ $6,500) × 18
= 4.98% + 10.52%
= 15.50%
Hence, the expected return on the portfolio is 15.50%
Answer:
t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years
Explanation:
To calculate the number of years it will take an investment of $3500 to grow to $5900 at an annual interest rate of 12%, we will use the formula for the future value of cash flows. The formula can be written as follows,
Future value = Present value * (1+i)^t
Where,
- i is the interest rate
- t is the time in years
Plugging in the values for future value, present value and i, we can calculate the t to be,
5900 = 3500 * (1+0.12)^t
5900 / 3500 = (1.12)^t
1.685714286 = 1.12^t
Taking log on both sides.
Ln(1.685714286) / Ln(1.12) = t
t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years
Answer: 1. No.
2. Yes.
Explanation:
Price Discrimination is a pricing strategy where suppliers/producers or sellers sell a good to different people at different prices depending largely on their preference and/or capacity to pay for the commodity i.e, if you want it more, you are charged more.
1. Johnny did not like to play Hopscotch, so offering Suzie one day of Hopscotch for two days of bug hunting is fair and no price discrimination occured as he did not offer these terms to someone else who's game he did not like.
2. Sam knew that Johnny really liked playing Slaps so he leveraged on that and offered him more expensive terms so to speak than he did to Bill even though he liked playing the both games equally. This means that he charged Johnny more than Bill simply because Johnny liked and preferred his game alot which is Price discrimination.
C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that is consistent with the provided data. The MPC is determined by subtracting the change in consumption from the change in disposable income, which equals 160/200, or 0.8.
Marginal propensity calculation.
$200 billion less $0 billion equals $200 billion in changes to disposable income.
Consumption change equals $210 minus $50, or $160 billion.
MPC = Change in Consumption/Change in Disposable Income, which equals $160 billion/$200 billion and is equal to 0.8.
There is a 0.8 marginal tendency to consume.
Step 2
This is how consumption function is defined.
C = a + bY
Where,
a = Consumption at zero income level
b = MPC
In given case,
$50 billion would be consumed at a level of income zero.
MPC is 0.8
So,
C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that matches the provided data.
