Answer:

Nominal gross domestic product (GDP) measures the market value of all the new and legal goods and services produced in a country within a year. While real GDP adjusts nominal GDP to inflation. Since inflation is generally positive, real GDP decreases as inflation increases. The higher the inflation rate, the larger the difference between nominal and real GDP. Depending on which year is used as base year (year 0), the difference that existed in 2010 can be either significant or not.

The difference = ($14,657 / $13,245) - 1 = 10.66%, which means that nominal GDP was 10.66% higher than real GDP. If the base year is 2000 or even 2005/6, the difference is very small since the accumulated inflation would only be 10.66% for all these years. But if the base year was 2008 or even 2009, then the inflation rate is high.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

These are correct:

  • Smaller companies with smaller production processes have higher per unit costs than larger companies. - smaller firms find it harder to adopt economies of scale to reduce costs.
  • Over time, a firm takes control of 85% of the world’s supply of a chemical used in the production of plastic. - the firm has almost total control over a scarce resource, and new competitors have to scramble for the remaning 15%. (note: this is a natural barrier to entry as long as the pharmaceutical company did not collude with the government to reach such a high market share, in said case, it would be an artificial barrier to entry).
  • Lenders are hesitant to provide funding for new firms that will compete with a large, well-established firm. - a small firm may lack market credibility in the financial markets, because investors are hesitant about the future of the company, or do not expect high rates of return.

frez [133]

Answer:

a. Journal entry to record the issue of notes

Date           Account Title & Explanation   Debit $        Credit $

Jan 1          Cash                                           350,000

                 Notes Payable                                                350,000

                  (To record the issue of notes payable)

b. Calculation of Interest Expenses

                      Particulars                           Amount $

Beginning balance of loan payment         350,000

Annual interest rate                                          4%

Interest expenses                                         14,000

Hence the interest expenses = $14,000

Principal amount is calculated as the difference between the annual payment and the interest expenses as seen below

Annual payment                                      96,590

Less: Interest expenses                          14,000

Principal Payment                                  82,590

Hence, the principal payment =$82,590

Orem Corporation's current liabilities are $116,160, its long-term liabilities are $474,240, and its working capital is $162,600
jekas [21]

Answer:

Total long-term assets must equal: d $2,771,640

Explanation:

Orem Corporation's Total Debt (liabilities) = current liabilities + long-term liabilities = $116,160 + $474,240 = $590,400

Debt-to-equity ratio = Total Debt/Total Equity

Total Equity = Total Debt/Debt-to-equity ratio = $590,400/0.24 = $2,460,000

Working capital = Current assets - Current abilities

Current assets = Working capital + Current abilities = $162,600 + $116,160 = $278,760

Basing accounting equation:

Total assets = Current assets + Long-term assets = Total liabilities + Total Equity = $590,400 + $2,460,000 = $3,050,400

Long-term assets = Total assets - Current assets = $3,050,400 - $278,760 = $2,771,640
