1 answer:

4 0

<span>This is a tricky question, because most of the answers provided are correct. For instance, by raising taxes, the government drops down the demand rates, as well as by decreasing the money supply (in that case, it also prevents economy from falling into an inflating situation). As for balancing the budget, this economical move entails decreasing the public expenditure and, therefore, contracting the demanding economical figures too. </span>

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

C) Rise about 15 percent

Explanation:

The computation of the increase or decrease of real income is shown below:

Initial income equals to

= Nominal income ÷ Consumer price index

= $10,000 ÷ 100

= 100

If it increases, then it would be

= Nominal income ÷ Consumer price index

= $12,000 ÷ 105

= 114.28

So, the real income is increased from

= 114.28 - 100

= 14.28 approx i.e 15 percent

irakobra [83]

Answer:

b. $7,500

c. $9,000

Explanation:

Amount of revenue = Ending balance of accounts receivable + Cash collected - Beginning balance of accounts receivable

= $70,500

b. The computation of net income earned during the accounting period is shown below:-

Net income = Revenue generated - Expenses

= $70,500 - $63,000

= $7,500

c. The computation of amount of cash flow from operating activities is shown below:-

Net cash flow from operating activities = Cash collection - Amount paid for operating expenses

= $72,000 - $63,000

Contact [7]

Answer:

exist 139,200

Explanation:

Assume that Pell allocates manufacturing overhead based on machine hours, estimated 10,000 machine hours and exist 87,000 that implies that the standard cost per machine hour = exist 87,000 / 10,000 = 8.7 exist

Therefore the manufacturing overhead costs if Pell actually used 16,000 machine hours will be: 16000 x 8.7 = exist 139,200

(a) Explain the quantity theory and<br> (b) how does the theory explains the cause of inflation

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The quantity theory of money defends that the money supply has a determining influence on the price level, that is, that the quantity of circulating money will necessarily be imputed to the value of the quantity of commercial operations that are carried out.

Therefore, this theory establishes that the creation of money without increasing the commercial volume (the total amount of tradable goods) will lead to inflation, since it is not really increasing the economic value of an economy, but only the money supply of it, which is "empty" of value, and therefore is coupled with existing commercial transactions.
