Answer:

$81,000

Explanation:

Segment margin is derived by deducting all expenses that are directly traceable to the segment and it does not include corporate common expenses.

Particulars                         Amount

Contribution                       $132,000  [33,000*(8-4)]

Less: Direct fixed cost      <u>($51,000)</u>

Segment Margin               <u>$81,000</u>

So, Carter's segment margin for the West Division is $81,000.

Suppose during a year an economy produces $10 trillion of consumer goods, $4 trillion of investment goods, $6 trillion in govern
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is $19 trillion

Explanation:

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total market or monetary value of all the goods and services produced by a country within its borders over a given period of time. It is used as a measure of a country's economic health, due to its broad coverage.

The formula for calculating GDP is: GD P  =  C  +  I  +  G  +  ( X  −  M )

where :

C = private consumption (consumer goods)

I = gross investments (investment goods)

G = government investments or government spending (govt. services)

X = export

M = import

Therefore:

GDP (in trillion) = 10 + 4 + 6 + (4 - 6) = 10 + 10 - 1 = $19 trillion dollars.

Please note that there is the nominal GDP and real GDP.

Nominal GDP is the total value of all the final goods and services a country produces within a year, while real GDP is the value of the goods and services produced within a year, putting inflation effects into account.

hammer [34]

Answer and Explanation:

An investment when it would be risk free in that case both the principal and the interest amount are to be paid within the prescribed time. Also when the U.S government bonds i.e. long term would be issued by the government have a lesser interest rate as compared with the other riskier securities available at the market place this is because as the government would default next to zero in case of the short term it would make the default when there are extreme situations arise.

Therefore in the short term it would be risk free

But in the long run, the person is based on the treasury bills returns so that he or she could equate the similar standard of living also it would not suffice when the inflation rises

Therefore the less risky investment would be of Government bonds
