Answer:
c. $326,948
Explanation:
we must determine the market price of the bonds:
market price = PV of face value + PV of coupons
- PV of face value = $300,000 / (1 + 2%)¹⁰ = $246,104.49
- PV of coupons = $9,000 (coupons) x 8.9826 (PV annuity factor 2%, 10 periods) = $80,843.40
total market price = $326,947.89 ≈ $326,948
since the market rate is lower than the coupon rate, the bonds should be sold at a premium.
Answer:
Deferred tax liability = $52,500
Explanation:
Difference between depreciation for financial reporting purposes and tax purposes at December 31 = 250,000
Enacted tax rate = 30%
Tax rate for future years = 40%
so Deferred tax liability = $250,000 x 40% = $100,000
Answer:
Confirmation bias.
Explanation:
Confirmation bias is defined as the tendency for an individual to recall and favour information that confirms one's previous beliefs or hypothesis. It is a form of cognitive bias.
In the given example Joe only accepted information that would confirm his belief that there are fewer cars on the road (that is his commute is now shorter).
He however rejected the information that he now works the night shift, a period when traffic is low.
Answer:
b) be more inelastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply. In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy move from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.
Aggregate supply (AS) refers to the total quantity of output (goods and services) that firms are willing to produce and sell at a given price in an economy at a particular period of time.
An aggregate supply curve gives the relationship between the aggregate price level for goods or services and the quantity of aggregate output supplied in an economy at a specific period of time.
In the short run or in shorter time periods supply curves tend to be more inelastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time.
This ultimately implies that, a rightward shift in the aggregate supply (AS) curve causes output to increase and result in a price fall (lower price), in the short run.
However, in the long-run or in longer time periods, supply curves tend to be fairly elastic than supply curves that apply to shorter periods of time.
Answer:
Yes, because they will net $300 per week
Explanation:
According to the marginal principle, production can be increased if marginal revenue would exceed marginal cost. It means that the venture would be profitable
Marginal cost is the increase in cost as a result of increasing output by one unit.
total marginal cost = 1000 + 50 + 150 = 1200
Marginal revenue is the increase in revenue as a result of increasing output by one unit.
Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost by (1500 - 1200) 300. Thus, hours of operation can be increased
