Answer:
2%
Explanation:
The average inflation rate for most countries is 2%. It is considered to be a healthy inflation rate, as inflation (a commonly referred negative issue) is normal in certain limits. It is important for inflation to remain healthy, as a higher inflation rate may imply a future inflation crisis coming.
This rate takes in account the <em>consumer price inde</em>x, which represents the average value of a consumer basket of goods and services.
Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead= $396,000
Department:
Consumer= 700
Commercia= 300
To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000/1,000= $396 per loan processed.
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 396*300= $118,800
Answer:
It is cheaper to buy the product.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production:
Direct material $45,000
Direct labor 30,000
Factory overhead (30 % is variable ) 98,000
Buy:
Total cost= $100,000
<u>I will assume that none of the fixed overhead avoidable. Therefore, we will take into account only the variable overhead.</u>
Total variable production cost= 45,000 + 30,000 + (98,000*0.3)
Total variable production cost= $104,400
It is cheaper to buy the product.
Answer:
Clinton and Trump on fiscal policy In the 2016 Presidential election campaign
The policy that will change aggregate demand (AD) the most is a cut in taxes.
Explanation:
Aggregate demand is fueled mostly by household consumption. A cut in taxes increases the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) and reduces the marginal propensity to save (MPS), but at the same time fuels the marginal propensity to invest by firms trying to meet the new aggregate demand, thereby increasing the aggregate supply (AS) which is the real GDP output.
Answer:
$468,844 approx.
Explanation:
<u>Assumption</u>: <u>Since the question is incomplete, with the available information it has been construed that calculation of bond price is required and the question has been solved accordingl</u>y.
The price of a bond is the present value of future cash receipts it generates to the investor in the form of interest stream and principal stream.
wherein,
= price of bond as on today
i = annual coupon payments
ytm= investor's expectation of interest or market rate of interest on similar bonds
RV = Redemption value of such bonds assumed to be the face value
n = term to maturity
12.46221 × 22,500 + 0.376889 × 22,500 = 280,399.725 + 188444.5
$468,844 approx
This is the present value of the bond which is lower than it's face value because market rate of return of similar bonds is higher than the coupon rate of payment by Westside Corporation.
