Answer:
<u>involuntary employment</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The Post-Keynesianism view is that effective demand is the main determinant of economic performance.
Thus, Keynesianism states that in an economy where there is a significant reduction in demand, it will affect the labor market which further leads to lower wages.
For example, an airline that has 100 workers is experiencing a sharp decline in demand (of flight bookings) because of a government lockdown may decide to cut down their staff capacity ad a result. leading to <u>involuntary employment.</u>
Answer: A. a downward-sloping labor demand curve.
Explanation:
If the marginal product of labor is diminishing then that means that for every extra worker hired, less products are made than the last worker. As a result of this, companies will not want to pay high wages to workers because they would be bringing in less revenue when hired.
This will cause a downward-sloping labor demand curve that shows that as more workers are hired, the company would like to pay less wages because each new worker is only producing less than the last worker.
Answer:
Overall operating profit will decrease by $25,000
Price is $32.5
Explanation:
A product should be shut down if doing so would make the savings in fixed costs associated with the product to exceed the lost contribution. Other wise , the product should remain.
In a shut down decision , the following relevant cash flows should be considered:
1. Lost contribution from the product to be shut down
2. Savings in fixed directly attributable to the product under consideration.
$
Lost contribution from products 2
(15-10)× 20,000 (100,000)
Savings in direct fixed cos <u> 75,000</u>
Net loss from the drop of product 2 <u> (25,000)</u>
Overall operating profit will decrease by $25,000
Mark up is the proportion of cost as profit
Price = cost + (mark-up %× cost
Price = 25 + (30%× 25) = 32.5
Price is $32.5

e. the total of currency in circulation, plus depository institution reserves and vault cash
Explanation:
Monetary base is a concept in money supply that measures highly liquid assets in an economy.
It includes all cash that is in circulation in the economy and those deposits that are held as reserves by the central bank from commercial banks. Cash in bank vaults are also included because they are readily available to the economy.
For example if there is $200 million in circulation and there is $13 billion in the central bank as reserves from commercial banks, the total monetary base is $13.2 billion
Answer:
Acquisition cost
a. Patent: $6,000
b. Trademark: $4,000
c. Computer licensing rights: $42,000
2. Amortization for current year
a. Patent: $500
Annual Amortization charge = Cost / Estimated life = $6,000 / 12 = $500
b. Trademark: $0. Since it has an indefinite life.
c. Computer licensing rights: $7,000
Annual Amortization charge = Cost / Useful life = $42,000 / 6 = $7,000
3. Balance Sheet (Partial)

Intangible Assets=$44,500
($6,000 + $4,000 + $42,000 - $500 - $7,000)
