Answer:

depreciation

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the term that is being described in this question is called depreciation. This is the reduction in the value of an asset as time goes by, and is mainly due to the fact that the asset experiences wear and tear and is not in the same condition as it was when it was purchased, therefore there is less demand for it.

forsale [732]

Answer:

The question has below options:

A. The unsold cars count as inventory investment for 2017. 2018 GDP is not affected.

B.The unsold cars count as consumption spending in 2018.

C. The unsold cars count in the inventory investment category for both years and count as consumption spending in 2018.

Option B is the correct answer

Explanation:

The unsold stock of 10 cars in 2017 is classified as investment  since  the cost of producing them is expected to yield returns in 2018 when they have been sold.

However, the unsold stock of 2017 becomes 2018 consumption of GDP since it relates to household expenditure in 2018, as a result it is accorded such classification.

It cannot be classified as government expenditure as the government is not the one purchasing the vehicle

Also, the ten cars have nothing to do with import or export as they are trade within the domestic economy

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: Time value of money.

Explanation:

To begin with, due to the fact that Rock Solid Concrete Company does not offer customers a cash discount for early payment then it is quite obvious that their customers will try to wait to pay their bills on the last day because in that way they will be able of having that money availabe for any issues or inconveniences that could occur during those first days, therefore that those customers apparently <u>understand the importance of time value of the money because if the pay early they will lose that cash and would not have it for any urgencies</u>.

For an auto insurance company, the average cost of collision claims is $500 per year for careful drivers and $3000 per year for
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance  

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year
