Consumption spending is $4.5 billion, gross private domestic investment is $3 billion, and government expenditures are $2 billio
masha68 [24]

Answer:

exports are $15 billion, and imports are $10.5 billion

Explanation:

GDP is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.

GDP = Consumption + Investment spending + Government Spending + Net Export

14 billion = 4.5 billion + $3 billion + $2 billion + Net Export

Net Export = $4.5 billion

Net Export = export - import

Net Export is positive so it indicates that exports is greater than imports.

Going through the options, it is only option d that is equal to 4.5 and the export is greater than the import.

Jamal purchased a Subway franchise in a great location across the street from an outlet mall. After two years in business, Jamal
Alchen [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it does not attach the model to answer it we can comment on the following.

The problem is that Jamal, trying to increase profits, decided to sell two different products that are not part of the Subway products. When the franchisor visited Jamal's location, it realized the changes and set an ultimatum to Jamal to respect the franchise agreement.

The cause of the problem is that although Jamal wanted to diversify the products to have more income, this contradicts and is against the franchise agreement he signed when he bought the Subway franchise. The contract clearly states that the owner of the franchise can only sell products authorized in the contract by Subway. That is exactly one of the characteristics of a franchise. That you visit one of them any place in the world, and you are going to find de the same products with the same quality. That is the product guarantee of a franchise like Subway.

So the effects for the company are that its reputation an image can be questioned for selling different products that are hot approved by Subway. It is a major risk the company is not going to allow. Furthermore, it is stated in the contract. So Jamal has no right to break it.

One possible solution is that Jamal respects those 30 days to make the proper corrections, follow the guidelines established in the Subway's manuals, offer a sincere apology, and commit himself to operate the franchise just as it is stated on the agreement.

Evaluating your payoffs as gains or losses relative to an arbitrary baseline distorts your decisions and is a problem associated
7nadin3 [17]

The study of an agent's or individual's decisions is known as decision theory. The official decision-making process concludes with evaluation. Evaluating the consequences may assist the decision-maker in learning lessons that will help her make better decisions in the future.

  • Loss aversion is the correct answer because the general notion of the "loss-aversion" theory is that if an individual is provided with two equal alternatives, one of which is presented in terms of prospective profits and the other in terms of potential losses, the former option will be chosen.

  • Loss aversion is a cognitive bias or psychological phenomenon that explains why the agony of losing is twice as powerful psychologically as the pleasure of winning.

Therefore, representativeness, cognitive bias, and overconfidence are not factors relative to an arbitrary decision distortion. So, Loss aversion is the correct response to the question.

Assume that you wish to purchase a 20-year bond that has a maturity value of $1,000 and makes semiannual interest payments of $4
Savatey [412]

Answer:

$828.36

Explanation:

As for the information provided,

The value = $1,000

Life = 20 years, since interest is semi annual, effective period = 20 \times \frac{12}{6} = 40 periods.

Semi annual interest = $40

Annual interest = 10%, effective interest rate = 5%

Future Value Interest rate = $40 \times (\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^1} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^2} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^3} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^4} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^5} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^6} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^7} +.................. + \frac{1}{(1+0.05)^4^0} )

= $40 \times 17.159 = $686.36

Future Value of Principal = $1,000 \times \frac{1}{(1 + 0.05)^4^0}

= $1,000 \times 0.142 = $142

Thus, current price of bond = $686.36 + $142 = $828.36
