Which of the following is included in the consumption component of U.S. GDP? Question 12 options:
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Answer is option b, i.e. purchase of natural gas by U.S. households.

Explanation:

Consumption component of U.S. GDP includes purchase of various durable goods, non-durable goods, and also various intangible services. But anything that is purchased as a means of investment rather than for personal consumption is not regarded as consumption component in GDP. Here, purchase of newly constructed houses is an asset and thus, is not included in these components. Similarly, purchase made for business purposes is also excluded from the list of consumption components.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

$49,252

Explanation:

Calculation to the estimated warranty liability using the expected cash flow method.

Estimated warranty liability =[($20,000 x .4)+($30,000 x .6) x 0.95238]+ [($30,000 x .7)+($20,000x .3) x 0.90703]

Estimated warranty liability =[($8,000+$18,000)×0.95238]+[($21,000+$6,000)×0.90703

Estimated warranty liability =($26,000×0.95238)+($27,000×0.90703)

Estimated warranty liability =$24,762+$24,490

Estimated warranty liability =$49,252

Therefore the estimated warranty liability using the expected cash flow method is $49,252

Answer:

The total reported inventory value is $1,130.

Explanation:

Note: The data given the question are sorted and presented properly as follows:

                                    <u> Selling Price  </u>         <u>    Cost    </u>

Large animals:                  

Cattle                                     $320                    $160

Horse                                      400                      400

Small animals:

Cat                                         $360                  $320

Dog                                          120                       90

Iguana                                       70                      48

Based on the lower of cost and net realizable value rule, we select the lower and determine the reported inventory value as follows:

<u>Details                                        Value ($)   </u>

Large animals:

Cattle                                            160

Horse                                            400

Small animals:

Cat                                                320

Dog                                                90

Exotic pets:

Ferret                                             112

Iguana                                        <u>    48    </u>

Total value                              <u>    1,130   </u>

Therefore, the total reported inventory value is $1,130.
