Explain why the as curve has the slope you calculated as a result of the "sticky price theory".

1 answer:

5 0

The sticky output theory states that in the short-run as the prices are increasing, the aggregate quantity will be upward slopping. In this case, it is happening in the same way. As the price increased from $150 to $160, the mixed supply is increased from $16,100 to $16,200.

Here is the answer:

Transaction Effect on asset, liabilities and equity

1 Increase in asset(computer account) by $20,000

and increase in liabilities (account payable) by

$20,000

2 Decrease in asset(cash account) by $3,000 and

decrease in equity (rent expense account) by

$3,000

3. Increase in asset (cash account) by $15,000 and decrease in

asset (account receivable) by $15,000. Net effect is zero.

4. Increase in asset (cash account) by $2,700 and increase in

equity (service revenue account) by $2,700

5. Decrease in asset (cash account) by $11,000 and decrease in

equity (Energy expense account) by $11,000

6. Increase in asset (cash account) by $32,000 and increase in

equity (common stock account) by $32,000

7. Decrease in asset (cash account) by $20,000 and decrease in

liabilities (account payable) by $20,000

8. Increase in liabilities (accrued advertising expense) by $840

decrease in equity (advertising expense account) by $840

Explanation:

Assets are economic resources of the firm in which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity. Liabilities are the entity`s financial obligation to those who are not the owners of the business. Equity is the residual value after deducting am entity`s assets from its liabilities.

With this background, business transactions and events are recorded either as increase or decrease in asset, liabilities and equity.

Answer:

The IRR is 5%. Rate of return would be 12.5% assuming a discount rate of 4%

Explanation:

The answer depends entirely on the discount rate. The question covers a 30 period timeframe and in each period, the pay off is $13 million. This is a simple time value of money concept in which to calculate the present value, you will simply calculate the present value of each of the cash flows. The formula is 13Mn/[(1+r)^n] where n is the year from 1 to 30, r is the discount rate.

The question requires us to calculate the return that is the variable 'r'. For this you need to have the present value today so that you can then use the equation to solve for 'r'. However, the only information we have is the time period and the cash flow. We are given $200mn as the initial outlay. So, we can at least use this to calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) which is simply the rate of return (or the value of 'r') at which the present value of each of the 13 Mn to be received over the next 30 years is equal to the initial outlay (i.e 200mn). In short, IRR is the rate of return at which the net present value (NPV) is equal to zero. In our example, and using the formula for each of the cash flow from years 1 to 30, the IRR is computated at 5%. So if the discount rate that the company uses is less than 5%, the company would be better of with Joe accepting the offer because any discount rate below 5% would result in the present value of the cash flows to be in excess of $200Mn.

Lets take an example and assume that the discount rate is 4%, using the formula from year 1 to 30 and summing the values would give us a present value of $225 Mn. So the rate lf return in this case would be (225-200)/200 x 100 = 12.5%.
