If the monetary authorities decide to increase the nominal money supply by 10% when the economy is at its full employment level

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

10%
(will increase in the short run) but in the long run it will return to the potential output level.

Explanation:

If the money supply is increased by 10%, the inflation rate will also increase by 10%.

In the short run the economy will be able to produce an output which is higher than the potential GDP, but once the inflation rate catches up, both the unemployment rate will increase and the real GDP will return to its potential output level.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The corrected Net income = $54,500

Explanation:

Net income is defined as the total profits earned by an individual from a business venture. It is equal to the difference between the gross income and the expenses involved including cost of supplies and accrued salaries.

Given: net income = $58,000

Entries not made include supplies expense = $2,200 and accrued salaries = $1,300

Therefore, the corrected net income = net income - expenses = $58,000 - ($2,200 + $1,300) = $54,500

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Using EMV analysis, the number of units of the new product should be purchased for resale = Purchase 7.

The maximum EMV of profit you can make is 270.

Explanation:

We can use the following method to solve the given problem

Solution:

Using EMV analysis,

EMV (Purchase 6 for resale)= 6(40)(0.1) + 6(40)(0.4) + 6(40)(0.5)=240

EMV (Purchase 7 for resale) = [6(40)-60](0.1) +7(40)(0.4) + 7 (40)(0.5) = 270

EMV (Purchase 8 for resale) = [6(40)-2(60)] (0.1) + [7 (40) - 60] (0.4) + 8(40)(0.5)= 260

Largest EMV= 270; Choose to purchase 7 units for resale.
