Answer:

Explanation:

If the government changes taxes without changing government spending to eliminate the recessionary gap, will the minimum required change in taxes be greater than, smaller than, or equal to the minimum required change in government spending?

The minimum required change in taxes will be greater than that of the minimum required change in government spending

tax multiplier (mpc/mps = 0/8/0.2=0.4) is smaller than the government spending multiplier (1/mps= 1/.2=5) because of the initial increase in disposable income caused by the decrease in income tax will be saved rather than spent

High Flying takes tourists on helicopter tours of Hawaii. Each tourist buys a $190 ticket; the variable costs average $57 per pe
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a.  450 tours per month

b.  $850 per month

c.  CM Ratio = 0.7

d.  

1.  Increase

2.  Decrease

3.  No Effect

Explanation:

<u>The questions are:</u>

<u>a. Compute the average number of tours the company must conduct per month to break even</u>

<u>b. Compute the average sales revenue needed per month to produce a target average profit of $53,200</u>

<u>c. Calculate the contribution margin ratio. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)</u>

<u>d. Determine whether the actions that follow will increase, decrease, or not affect the company's break-even point. </u>

<em>1. A decrease in tour prices.</em>

<em>2. The termination of a salaried clerk (no replacement is planned).</em>

<em>3. A decrease in the number of tours sold.</em>

<u />

<u />

<u>Solution:</u>

a.

Selling Price = 190

VC = 57

Unit Contribution Margin = $133

Fixed Cost = 718,200 yearly, so monthly is:

718,200/12 = 59,850

Break even occurs when by selling tours they will cover monthly fixed cost of 59,850 [each tour will get 133], thus:

59,850/133 =  <u>450 tours per month</u>

<u></u>

b.

718,200 FC yearly, means, monthly:

718,200/12 = $59,850

Profit needed 53,200, so we would need to cover:

53200+59850 = $113,050

Each tour gives Unit CM to be $133, so we would need revenue of:

Rev = 113,050/133 = <u>$850</u>

<u></u>

c.

Contribution margin ratio is the quotient of difference in sales and var expenses to sales.

So,

CM Ratio = (Sales - Var Exp) / Sales

CM Ratio = (190 - 57) / 190 = 0.7

d.

1.

If the tour prices, decrease, there will be less revenue coming in so the break even point would go higher.

So, break even point will increase

2.

If a salaried clerk is terminated, it will decrease the salary costs of the company. This is decrease the fixed costs of the company (annual wages and salaries), thus it will be easier to cover the new, lower, fixed costs. Thus, the break even point will decrease

3.

A decrease in number of tours sold would proportionally change the variables and other costs and revenues associated. If you look at the calculation above, you will see that "number of tours" won't affect the Break Even Point. Thus, this action will create "no effect".

Suppose that when disposable income decreases by $2,000, consumption spending increases by $1500. Given this information, we kno
sdas [7]

Answer:

the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75

The computation of the marginal propensity to consume is shown below:

MPC = Change in consumption ÷Change in disposable income

where,

The Change  in consumption is 1500

ANd, the Change in disposable income is 2000

So,

MPC is

= $1,500 ÷ $2,000

= 0.75

hence, the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75
