Answer: A - nominal wages are slow to adjust to changing economic conditions
Explanation:
In the short run, the costs of many of the factors used in the production process are fixed. For example labours wage is fixed for a number of years because of labour contracts. Also the raw materials used in the production process have long term agreements that fix their prices.
As a result of factors of production been fixed in the short run, when general price level rises and the cost of production remains constant, profit also rises.
Firms take advantage of this rise in price and increase production and the quantity of aggregate supply increases. This is why the short run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping.
Answer:
Correct option is D.
Unearned Rent Revenue Dr. $16,000
Rent Revenue $16,000
Explanation:
Provided that rent is received for a period of 1 year that is 12 months on May 1, 2010 amounting $24,000
Thus rent per month = $24,000/12 = $2,000 per month
Provided financial year = Calendar year
thus for the year 2010 rent revenue = 1 May to 31 December = $2,000 
8 = $16,000
Since revenue = $16,000 for the year and initially was recorded as unearned rent thus for the year $16,000 should be transferred to rent revenue.
For this entry shall be:
Unearned Rent Revenue Dr. $16,000
To Rent Revenue $16,000
Correct option is D.
Answer: a.$275,000
Explanation:
Let us assume local production sales of 0 for simplicity of analysis.
At 0 there will be no Variable Costs and no fixed costs because they are dependant on the amount of units produced.
If then Rylan Corporation receives 25,000 units at $16 per unit this will change the Variable costs as it will have to incorporate the new units.
The question however says that normal production continues. This means that Fixed costs do not change. That means fixed costs remain at $0.
That means the only change will be the Variable costs of selling 25,000 units.
At a rate of $11 per unit we then have,
= 11 * 25,000
= $275,000
The costs have increased by $275,000 from 0 which means that $275,000 is the Incremental cost.
Note that Fixed and Variable costs of 0 are improbable and we're only used for simpler analysis. Feel free to try the question with other number of units for your own practice. You will arrive at the same answer regardless.
Answer:
The answer is b.Cash ,000 Notes Payable ,000
Explanation:
The exact entry Drake Builders Company has to record in its accounting book for the proceeds received from the issuance of the note is:
1st January
Dr Cash 400,000
Cr Note Payable 400,000
As at the time the note is issued, no interest expenses has been incurred, all the answer with Interest expenses can be eliminated.
In fact, interest expenses is only incurred and accrued during the lifetime of the note, based on the number of days the note is hold; that is, from the day the fund is lend out to Drake Builders Company; not on the day of issuance.
