Answer:
Consumer price index; A consumer price index measures changes in the price level of a weighted average market basket of consumer goods and services purchased by households.
First of all, GDP does not include household production, production from the underground economy, intermadiate goods or intermediate servces. That is because we define GDP to be the total of all market values of all final goods and services in the country. Hence, the correct answer by the above definition cannot be d. The point of that definition is that household products cannot have a market value and that if we counted towards the GDP both the value of a Graphics Card and that of the PC, we would double count the value of the Graphics Card, thus overestimating the GDP. We see that the value of new houses are included in GDP since they need materials and services and they have a market value, so b is also excluded. Finally, we have shown that b is true but that this is a good thing and leads to a better estimate of total production; the correct answer is a. Here is an example. If there is an economy where in every house there is plenty of wood and people make wood dolls out of tradition, these dolls will not have a market value if they are kept by the people who made them. Nonetheless they are products too and everyone could just try to sell them the next day at a reasonable price; then, the GDP would get a bump out of nowhere, because it cannot account for household items or the underground economy.
Answer:
The price/book ratio is 2.45
This price/book ratio indicates that the Chang, Inc company has 2.45 higher market value of the stock than the book value of the equity
Explanation:
For computing the price/book ratio, we have to apply the formula which is shown below:
= Market price of equity ÷ book value of equity
where,
the market value of equity = firm's earnings per share × price/earnings ratio × number of outstanding common stock shares
= $3.00 × 12.25 × 50,000 shares
= $1,837,500
And, the book value of equity is $750,500
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the answer would be equal to
= $1,837,500 ÷ $750,500
= 2.45
This price/book ratio indicates that the Chang, Inc company has 2.45 higher market value of the stock than the book value of the equity
