Explanation:

Correct Option: Political business cycle

If government tax revenues change automatically and in a countercylical direction over the course of the business cycle, this would be called a Political business cycle.

These cycles are present in macroeconomic variables such inflation rate, output and unemployment. There are two types of regime follow in this cycle are as follows:

(i) Regime A consist of expansionary polices which results in a economic growth and inflation. If the inflation rate is high enough then there is a withdrawal of policy.

(ii) Regime B consist of contractionary polices which results in reducing economic growth and inflation. It will become voted out if the unemployment is too high, replaced by Regime A. It generally lead to downward movement of the cycle.

You have a portfolio that is invested 14 percent in Stock R, 50 percent in Stock S, and the remainder in Stock T. The beta of St

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

1.41 Approx

Explanation:

The computation of the beta for the stock T is shown below:

Beta of portfolio = Respective betas × Respective investment weights

1.30 = (0.14 × 0.81) + (0.5 × 1.36) + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)

1.30 =0.7934 + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)

beta of the Stock T = (1.3 - 0.7934) ÷ 0.36

= 1.41 Approx

We simply multiplied the beta of each stock with its investment weights order to calculate the beta of the stock T as portfolio beta is given

2. A welder and a carpenter decided to get out of the construction industry and build farm trailers instead. From building a few

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Data Given:

Material Cost Per Trailer = $500

Material Cost plus Profit Per Trailer (15%) = $500 + 75 = $575

Selling Price = $1000

Labor Cost Remaining Per Trailer = $425

Formula to Calculate the number of Trailers:

X = X1 ( $N^{S}$ )

Where,

N = number of Trailers

S = Slope Parameter

X = $425

X1 = $700

So, First we need to find the slope parameter, in order to calculate the number of trailers to be built.

S = $\frac{log \alpha }{log 2}$

where, α = 0.85 rate of improvement.

Plugging in the values into the formula, we get:

S = $\frac{log (0.85) }{log 2}$

S = -0.234

Now, we can easily find the number of trailers.

X = X1 ( $N^{S}$ )

Plugging in the values,

425 = 700 x ( $N^{-0.234}$ )

Solving For N, we get:

N = 8.4 Trailers

N = 9 Trailers.

Hence, 9 Trailers must be built in order to realize this rate of profit.

According to their comparative advantage: a. Wilson should decorate cupcakes and Kendall should decorate cookies. b. Kendall sho

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

This economic law was recognized by a political economist, David Ricardo in his book, ‘Principles of Political Economy and Taxation’ in 1817.

Comparative advantage refers to the ability of a country to produce particular goods or services at lower opportunity costs as compared to the others in the field.

According to this law, if Kendall is good at decorating cupcakes and Wilson is the best at decorating cookies, then Kendall should decorate cupcakes and Wilson should decorate cookies becuase they can do it with lower costs.

The following are the assumptions of the Ricardian doctrine of comparative advantage:

-There are only two countries, assume A and B.

-Both of them produce the same two commodities, X and Y.

-Labour is the only factor of production.

-The supply of labour is unchanged.

-All labour units are homogeneous.

-Tastes are similar in both countries.

-The labour cost determines the price of the two commodities

-The production of commodities is done under the law of constant costs or returns.

-The two countries trade on the barter system.

-Technological knowledge is unchanged.

-Factors of production are perfectly mobile within each country. However, they are immobile between the two countries.

-Free trade is undertaken between the two countries. Trade barriers and restrictions in the movement of commodities are absent.

-Transport costs are not incurred in carrying trade between the two countries.

-Factors of production are fully employed in both the countries.

-The exchange ratio for the two commodities is the same.
