The price of coffe beans use to make coffee has decreased. At the same time, the price of cream (a compliment good) has increase

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Equilibrium price will decrease; the effect on quantity is ambiguous. (D)

Explanation:

First, note that if the price of coffee beans, used in the manufacture of coffee decreases, the price of coffee sold to consumers will decrease, because it takes a lesser amount in manufacturing than it used to, therefore this reduction in manufacturing costs is reflected in the selling price.

Next, it is hard to tell whether this reduction in equilibrium price will affect quantity demanded, because, at the same time, the price of cream ( a complementary good) increases, and since both goods are complementary, they are bought together, and the effect of the reduction in the price of coffee might not necessarily caused an increase in the quantity demanded because this effect is cancelled out by the increase in the price of cream, hence the effect on quantity is ambiguous.

Helga [31]

The future value of the car that costs $25,000 today in 5 years at an inflation rate of 3% per year is <u>$28,981.85.</u>

<h3>What is the future value?</h3>

The future value shows the value that a present value will be in a future period, given the time value of money concept.

The future value can be computed using the future value formula, future value table, or an online finance calculator as below.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Price of a car today = $25,000

Period to buy the car = 5 years

Inflation rate per year = 3%

Future value factor of 3% for 5 years = 1.159

Future price of the car in 5 years' time = $28,975 ($25,000 x 1.159)

N (# of periods) = 5 years

I/Y (Interest per year) = 3%

PV (Present Value) = $25,000

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $0

<u>Results:</u>

FV = $28,981.85

Total Interest $3,981.85

Thus, the future value of the car that costs $25,000 today in 5 years at an inflation rate of 3% per year is <u>$28,981.85.</u>

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows,

At December 31, 2011 the accounting records of Gordon, Inc. contain the following items:

Accounts Payable 2500

Land 30000

Building 31250

Notes Payable ?

Retained earnings 125000

Accounts Receivable 18750

Cash ?

Equipment 40000

Capital Stock 12500

If the Notes Payable is $10,000, the December 31, 2011 cash balance is:

Answer:

Cash = $30000

Explanation:

The accounting equation states that the sum of total assets is always equal to the sum of total liabilities plus total equity. We can state the equation as follows,

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity

So,

(30000 + 31250 + 18750 + 40000 + Cash) = (2500 + 10000) + (125000 + 12500)

120000 + Cash = 12500 + 137500

Cash = 150000 - 120000

Cash = $30000
