prisoha [69]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Capital, in general term, can be defined as a sum of money used to start a firm or invest to earn more money. Talking in broader terms, capital is anything that adds value or profit to the owner of the firm.

A capital can be machinery, factory, patents, buildings, etc. Capital is a sum of money used to pay or invest in the making of products.

Therefore, the statement that best describes the role of capital is what goes into making a product. Thus option B is correct.

How long will it take for the dollar's purchasing power to be 3/4ths of what it is now, if the general inflation rate is expecte
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

5.61 years

Explanation:

Let the Present value be 'x'

Data provided in the question:

Future value = \frac{3}{4}x

Inflation rate, i = 5% = 0.05

Now,

Using the compounding

let number of years be n

thus,

Future value = Present value × [ 1 - inflation rate ]ⁿ

\frac{3}{4}x = x × (1  - 0.05)ⁿ

or

0.75 = 0.95ⁿ

on taking log on both the sides , we get

or

log(0.75) = n × log(0.95)

or

-0.125 = n × (-0.0223)

or

n = 5.61 years

or, n = 11.89 years

Maren received 10 NQOs (each option gives her the right to purchase 10 shares of stock for $8 per share) at the time she started
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

$500 gain and $185 tax

Explanation:

Sale of share = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × Selling price per share

                      = 10 × 10 × $20

                      = $2,000

Basis = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × share price @$15

         = 10 × 10 × $15

         = $1,500

Gain realised = Sale of share - Basis

                      = $2,000 - $1,500

                      = $500

The tax is calculated as follows:

= Gain realised × marginal tax rate

= $500 × 37%

= $185

Advocates of the rational-expectations approach predict that a credible policy to lower inflation will result in a loss of outpu
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is lower.

Explanation:

The theory of rational expectations is a hypothesis of economic science that states that predictions about the future value of economically relevant variables made by agents are not systematically wrong and that errors are random (white noise). An alternative formulation is that rational expectations are "consistent expectations around a model," that is, in a model, agents assume that the predictions of the model are valid. The rational expectations hypothesis is used in many contemporary macroeconomic models, in game theory and in applications of rational choice theory.

Since most current macroeconomic models study decisions over several periods, the expectations of workers, consumers and companies about future economic conditions are an essential part of the model. There has been much discussion about how to model these expectations and the macroeconomic predictions of a model may differ depending on the assumptions about the expectations (see the web's theorem). To assume rational expectations is to assume that the expectations of economic agents can be individually wrong, but correct on average. In other words, although the future is not totally predictable, it is assumed that the agents' expectations are not systematically biased and that they use all the relevant information to form their expectations on economic variables.
