Suppose the black market shrinks because firms shift to the formal sector, but production remains the same. GDP

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: will increase but this will not affect living standards

Explanation:

GDP is sometimes called an incomplete measure because there are certain measures that it does not include such as the black market.

If firms in the black market shift to the formal sector, they will now be included in GDP which means that GDP will increase.

The living standards of people in the country will probably not change however because the firms involved were simply shifting sectors and are not said to be more or less prosperous as a result. Assuming they remained the same, nothing changes for living standards.

Tanya [424]

Answer:

The correct answer is $240,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, given data are as follows:

Beginning inventory at cost = $70,000

Beginning inventory at retail = $100,000

Net purchases at cost = $270,000

Net purchases at retail = $360,000

Total sales = $320,000

According to the LIFO method.

Particulars Cost Retail Cost/Retail Ratio

Beginning inventory $70,000 $100,000 70%

Net purchases $270,000 $360,000 75%

Total Inventory $340,000 $460,000

Total sales $320,000

Ending inventory ( Estimated )

($360,000-$320,000)× 75% $30,000

$70,000 × 70% $70,000

Ending inventory at cost $100,000

Estimated cost of goods sold $240,000.

Hence the correct answer is $240,000.
