In the relationship depicted by the curve Productivity1, which of the following statements are true regarding the relationship b

vovikov84 [41]

Option D, These countries experience diminishing returns to physical capital per worker with technology and human capital per worker being fixed

Explanation:

The curve which represents the relationship between physical capital per employee and production per employee illustrates the value of human capital per employee and technologies.

Both Albernia and Brittania have decreasing returns on physical capital as the same incremental rises in physical capital per employee in both countries — continuous job retention in human capital and technology — will lead in smaller and less actual GDP changes per employee.

So, Both human capital per worker and technology are held fixed. Yes, there are diminishing returns.

Currently, you owe the bank $9,800 for a car loan. The loan has an interest rate of 7.75 percent and monthly payments of $310. Y

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

It will extend the loan for 15.83 months = 16 more months.

Explanation:

We need to calcualte the difference in time between one option and another:

Original Loan:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C $310.00

time n

rate 0.0064583 (0.0775annual rate / 12 month per year)

PV $9,800

$310 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0064583)^{-n} }{0.0064583} = 9800\\$

We rearrenge and solve as much as we can:

$(1+0.0064583)^{-n}= 1-\frac{9800\times0.0064583}{310}$

$(1+0.0064583)^{-n} = 0.79583439$

Now, we solve using logarithmics properties:

$-n= \frac{log0.795834387096774}{log(1+0.0064583)}$

35.47385568

Now we calcualte with the new terms:

C $225.00

$225 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0064583)^{-n} }{0.0064583} = 9800\\$

$(1+0.0064583)^{-n}= 1-\frac{9800\times0.0064583}{225}$

$(1+0.0064583)^{-n}= 0.71870516$

$-n= \frac{log0.718705155555555}{log(1+0.0064583)}$

51.30909653

Last step, we solve for the difference:

51.30 - 35.47 = 15.83 = 16 more months

Four investment bankers need to cross a bridge at night to get to a meeting. They have only one flashlight and 17 minutes to get

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Correct Answer:

The correct sequence of crossing include:

First, the Analyst takes the flashlight and crosses the bridge with the Associate. This takes 2 minutes. The Analyst then returns across the bridge with the flashlight taking 1 more minute (3 minutes passed so far). The Analyst gives the flashlight to the VP and the VP and MD cross together taking 10 minutes (13 minutes passed so far).

The VP gives the flashlight to the Associate, who recrosses the bridge taking 2 minutes (15 minutes passed so far). The Analyst and Associate now cross the bridge together taking 2 more minutes. Now, all are across the bridge at the meeting in exactly 17 minutes.

Explanation:

The above is the only logical way through which all of them could be able to cross the bridge while still arriving to the meeting at/on the exact time.

On October 1, year 14, Park Co. purchased 200 of the $1,000-face-value, 10% bonds of Ott, Inc., for $220,000, including accrued

lana [24]

Answer:

Bond receivable - Ott Inc 200,000

Premium on B.R Ott Inc 14,400

Interest receivables 10,000

Net: 224,400

Explanation:

As Park Co uses straight line method, we don't have to solve for the present value of the bond we directly label the difference between cost and face value as premium or discount accordingly. Premium when above and discount when lower.

accrued interest:

200 bonds x $1,000 each x 10% x 3/12 = 5,000

220,0000 cost - 5,000 interest - 200,000 face value = 15,000 bond premium

Balance at December year 15:

the interest payable will be for the entire period:

200,000 x 10% / 2 = 10,000

the premium will be amortized for 3 month.

and it has outstanding 75 month to mature from October 1st

15,000 x 3 / 75 months = 600

carrying value 15,000 - 600 = 14,400
