Answer:
a. either the economy must be producing a larger output of goods and services, or goods and services must be selling at higher prices, or both
Explanation:
Total Spending is the total values of goods & services produced & transacted ( bought, sold ) in an economy, during a period of time.
Total Spending = Price of goods,services x Quantity of goods,services
So, if the total spending increases : It implies that either the quantity of goods & services, or their prices, or both have increased. As, amount spent is a product of both of them.
Answer:
Capital gain tax = $1,540.
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
For stocks of A
Profit = (selling price - purchasing price) × units
= ($19 - $23) × 200
= -$800
For stocks of B
Profit = ($57-$41) × 600
= $9,600
Total profit = profit for stock A + profit for stock B
= -$800 + $9,600
= $8,800
Therefore, capital gain for both year = $8,800
Tax rate = 35%
Capital gain tax = Capital gain × Tax rate
= $8,800 × 35%
=$3,080
As share holds for more than a year,
So, Capital gain tax = $3,080 ÷ 2 = $1,540.
Since the preferred stocks are cumulative in nature, the dividend amount not paid in the current year will be accumulated and paid in the next year.
Preferred dividend to be paid in 2017 = Value of preferred stock x Dividend rate
= (4700 x $50) x 5%
= 11750
Dividend to be paid in 2018 = same as 2017 as no new preferred stock issued
= 11750
Total dividend to be paid in 2018 = Dividend to be paid in 2018 + Dividend to be paid in 2017 – Dividend paid in 2017
= 11750 +11750 -7900
= $15600
Answer:
A lower real interest rate makes saving less appealing.
Explanation:
The lower the interest rate, the lower the amount saved and the higher the interest rate, the higher the amount of money saved. There is a positive relationship between interest rate and the supply of loanable funds. This is why the supply curve for loanable funds is upward sloping
Answer:
A. 12 units
B. 77 units
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine What safety stock level do you recommend for BX-5
Using this formula
Safety stock = Z * Standard deviation of demand
Let plug in the formula
Safety stock= 1.65* 7
Safety stock= 11.55 units
Safety stock=12 units (Approximately)
Therefore The safety stock level recommended for BX-5 is 12 Units
b. Calculation to determine What is the appropiate reorder point
Using this formula
Appropriate re-order point = Mean lead time demand + Safety stock
Let plug in the formula
Appropriate re-order point = 65 + 12
Appropriate re-order point = 77 units
Therefore the appropiate reorder point will be 77 units
