Answer:
c. fiscal and monetary policies that impact aggregate demand do not impact the natural rate of unemployment.
Explanation:
Short run Philips Curve is downward sloping, due to inverse relationship between unemployment rate & inflation rate. High economic activity implies more inflation rate, less unemployment. Low economic activity implies less inflation rate, more unemployment.
However, the inverse relationship between inflation & unemployment is only in short run & not in long run. In long run, this inflation - unemployment trade off doesn't exist. So, any fiscal or monetary policy affecting aggregate demand & consecutively inflation rate, do not affect the natural rate of unemployment (combination of frictional & structural unemployment rate) in long run.
Answer:
$612
Explanation:
To compute the depreciation, first we have to compute the depreciation per hour which is given below:
= (Cost of diesel-powered tractor - estimated residual value) ÷ (useful operating life)
= ($186,240 - $5,700) ÷ (59,000 hours)
= ($180,540) ÷ (59,000 hours)
= $3.06 per hour
Now the depreciation would be
= Operated hours × depreciation per hour
= 200 units × $3.06
= $612
Answer:
The price of the bonds is $ 1,276.
Explanation:
The value of bond or issue price can be calculated by discounting all future cash flow using effective rate of retun. Detail calculations are given below.
Future Value = Redemption present value (RPV) + Present value of interest (PVI)
RPV = 1,000 (1+5%)^-15 = $ 481 -A
PVI = 36.25 * Annuity factor =$ 759 -B
Future Value = A + B = $ 1,276
Annuity factor = (1- (1+i%)^-n)/i% = (1- (1+5%/2)^-30)/(5%/2) = 20.9303

Explanation:
The Dominant Strategy in a game is the strategy that a player will choose that will provide them with the highest payoff regardless of what the other player does.
In the above, the dominant strategy will be for RAPHAEL to choose LEFT.
By choosing left Raphael makes a payoff of 4 if Susan picks Left as well and a Payoff of 6 if Sudan picks Right. This is better than him picking Right and he will get a Payoff of 3 if Susan chooses Right as well.
The Nash Equilibrium is the strategy where both are making the best that they can given the strategy of the other player and deviating from it will give them less pay out.
The dominant strategy therefore is for RAPHAEL to choose LEFT and for SUSAN to choose RIGHT.
This is because Raphael will pick Left as it maximises their payoff and Susan will then pick a strategy that gives her the highest payoff based on Raphael's decision which is to go RIGHT.
Answer:
b. do not require customers to enter the service factory.
Explanation:
Possession processing involves tangible services provided on property belonging to a customer. It involves activities like lawn mowing, cleaning services. The property that is recoevong the action must be present but the customer does not need to be.
