antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: reduced by $80 billion

Explanation:

An expansionary gap is when the actual output is more than the potential output. From the question, we are told that an economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionary gap and that the central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out.

We are also given the marginal propensity to consume is 4/5, and told that the price level is completely fixed in the short run.

To close the expansionary gap, the government would need to reduce its spending. To solve this, we have to calculate the multiplier. This will be:

Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC)

= 1/(1 - 4/5)

= 1/1-0.8

= 1/0.2

= 5

Therefore, the government expenditure or spending will be reduced by:

= $400 billion/5

=$80 billion

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Macau

Explanation:

First, we need to understand that all countries are impacted financially due to the corona virus. It's predicted that Corona Virus will cause a loss of around $2.7 trillion in Global Economy.

That being said, some countries are impacted more than the others.

Especially those who rely on tourism and hospitality as their main economy. Macau is probably the one that got the hardest hit. Not only this country is located near China (where the virus originally came from) , tourism and hospitality accounted for around 43% of Macau's economy. Basically half of its economic activity shut down due to the virus.

Suppose Compco Systems pays no dividends but spent $ 4.92 billion on share repurchases last year. If Compco's equity cost of ca

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

$144.81 bil or $22.99 per share

Explanation:

We can apply discounted dividend model (DDM) to value the stock in this example because share repurchase is equivalent to cash dividend, which are both cash paid out to shareholders of the company.

DDM is stated as below:

V_o = [D_o x (1 + g)]/(r - g), where:

V_o: Intrinsic value of the company

D_o: Current dividend or Share repurchased in cash;

g: Dividend growth;

r: cost of equity.

Putting all the number together, we have:

V_o = [4.92 x (1 + 8.9%)]/(12.6% - 8.9%) = 144.81 bil or 144.81/6.3 = 22.99 per share
