Options:

a. Fall

b. Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right

Answer:

b. Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right

Explanation:

Indeed, in the long run the aggregate supply or the number of available unemployed workers in the economy would increase, due to an increase in the number of those looking for jobs, since they stand to get reduced unemployment benefits.

This change would be clearly visible if plotted on a labor supply graph. In a sense, the unemployed no longer want to remain unemployed because of reduced unemployment benefits.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.

Explanation:

Payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

the amounted invested in the project = $-51100

In year 1, the amount recovered = $-51,100 + $13150 = $-37,950

In year 2, the amount recovered =  $-37,950 + $16050 = $-21,900

In year 3, the amount recovered =  $-21,900 + $23900 = $2000

the amount invested is recovered in 2 + 21,900 / 23900 = 2.92 years

Discounted payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

discounted cash flows

$13150 / 1.08 = $12,175.93

$16050 / 1.08^2 = $13,760.29

$23900 / 1.08^3 = $18972.59

$12400 / 1.08^4 = $9114.37

the amount is recovered in 3 + 6191.19 / 9114.37 = 3.68 years

the discounted payback is longer than the payback period by 3.68 years - 2.92 years = 0.76 years

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

COGS    3807 debit

FG          7896 debit

WIP         2397 debit

  Factory Overhead  14,100 credit

--to record the underapplication of overhead--

Explanation:

overhead rate:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

$515,000 overhead /  515,000 labor cost = $1

each labor cost generates a dollar of overhead.

221,400 x 1 =   221,400 overhead in COGS

459,200 x 1 = 459,200 overhead in Finished Goods

139,400 x 1 =   139,400 overhead in WIP inventory

Total applied  820,000

Actual            805,900

Underapplied    14,100

Now we weight each concept and determiante the portion underapplocated in each concept
