If a union succeeds in rasing the wages of its members above the equilibrium, what is a likley outcome?a. unemployment.b. deflat

diamong [38]

Answer: a. unemployment.

Explanation:

If a union manages to raise the wages of its members but this wage is above the equilibrium, it will lead to the producers making less than they are supposed to due to higher input costs.

They will therefore seek to reduce their input costs and they will do so by hiring less people and letting go of some of the workforce. This will reduce their input costs and bring them back to equilibrium but will lead to unemployment in the nation.

ADVANCED ANALYSIS Currently, at a price of $0.50 each, 100 popsicles are sold per day in the perpetually hot town of Rostin. Con

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The new Quantity to be sold at $1 is 200 in the short run

Explanation:

The question is to determine the Popsicle sold each day in the short run for a price rise of $1

The formula to use for the Price elasticity of supply in short run

(New Quantity demanded - Old Quantity demanded )/ Old Quantity + New Quantity/ 2

(New Price - Old Price) / (Old Price + New Price)/ 2

The formula can also be simply written as

[(Q2 – Q1)/{(Q1 + Q2)/2}] / [(P2 – P1)/{(P1 + P2)/2}]

Step 2: Solve using the formula

Old Quantity = 100

New Quantity = Q2

Old Price = 0.50

New Price = $1

Solve:

[(Q2 – 100)/{(100+ Q2)/2}] / [(1 – 0.50)/{(0.50 + 1)/2}] = 1

=100 + Q2= 3Q2-300

= 2Q2= 400

Q2= 400/2

Q2= 200

The new Quantity to be sold at $1 is 200

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that in this circumstance the note is not negotiable because the note states the reason for the debt. Since the reason it stated it proves as to why the money needs to be paid to the individual and must therefore be paid in full on the date that has been listed.

Can you think of some other capital budgeting situations in which negative cash flows during or at the end of the project's life

guapka [62]

Answer:

Multiple IRRs:

Said another way, Multiple IRRs occur when a project has more than one internal rate of return. The problem arises where a project has non-normal cash flow (non-conventional cash flow pattern).

Internal rate of return (IRR) is one of the most commonly used capital budgeting tools. Investors make decisions by comparing the IRR of the project under consideration with the hurdle rate. If the IRR is greater than the hurdle rate, the project is accepted, otherwise it is rejected. When there are more than two IRRs, it is not exactly clear which IRR to compare with the hurdle rate.

Hurdle rate is the minimum required rate of return which businesses use as a benchmark to decide whether to invest in a project or not.

So a typical situation which can generate negative cashflows which can in turn lead to multiple IRRs towards the end of the project is where the conditions of investment become adverse towards the end of the project.

Imagine that toward the end of the lifecycle of a project, a forecasted increase external costs such as Interest Rate, influenced by government policies translates to an erosion of the bottom line generated by the business in that year.

Period 0 1 3 3 4 5

Unconventional cash flows ($)-19,000 16,000 16,000 6,000 6,000 -52,000

The series is non-conventional cash-flow pattern, which has two sign changes. This is the range in which the net present value of the non-conventional cash flow series is positive. The multiple IRR problem poses a series problem to analysts because the decision is not obvious.

Cheers!
