Let's consider the effects of inflation in an economy composed of only two people: Bob, a bean farmer, and Rita, a rice farmer.

34kurt

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Lets first calculate inflation using the formula for Consumer Price Index

Inflation for a good = (Year 2 price - Year 1 price / Year 1 price) * 100

Using the above formula we can calculate inflation when Beans = $2 and Rice = $6.

Inflation for Beans = (2-1/1) * 100 = 100%

Inflation for Rice = (6-3/3) * 100 = 100%

Since each of them use rice and beans in equal proportions we assign them weights of 0.5 each,

Inflation Total = 0.5 * 100 + 0.5 * 100 = 100%

We assume Bob and Rita form a transnational relation and as such neither is worse off because the exchange rate between them remains the same,

Exchange rate before inflation = 3/1 = 3, Bob can buy 1 Rice by selling Rita 3 Beans.

Exchange rate after inflation = 6/2 = 3, so Bob can still buy 1 Rice by selling Rita 3 Beans.

B) For Prices 2 and 4 we use the above formulas,

Total Inflation = (2-1/1)*100*0.50 + (4-3/3)*100*0.50 = 66.66%

Bob is better off and Rita Worse off as the exchange rate for Bob has improved He can acquire 1 Rice for 4/2 = 2 Beans instead of 3 he needed before. Rita needs to sell him more to maintain her consumption but since they always consume same amount, she is worse off.

C) For Prices 2 and 1.5.

Total Inflation = (2-1/1)*100*0.50 + (1.5-3/3)*100*0.50 = (50-25) = 25%

Bob is now worse off and Rita better off as the Exchange rate change has favored Rita. Rita now only needs to sell 1 rice to obtain 2/1.5 = 1.3 units of Beans. Bob will have to sell more to maintain his initial consumption level.

Bob and Rita are more concerned with their rate of exchange which is the change in real terms. As long as the changes are proportional and there are no third actors in the economy model, the 2 agents are not affected at all. What matters to them is their transnational rate and not inflation on the whole in this case.

Hope that helps.

Anthony Finley wishes to become a millionaire. His money market fund has a balance of $287,270 and has a guaranteed interest rat

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

15 years

Explanation:

The target accumulated future amount is the future value of the initial investment(present value), hence, using the future value formula provided below we can determine the investment time horizon in years required to accumulate the target amount:

FV=PV*(1+r)^n

FV=$1,200,000

PV=$287,270

r=10%

n=investment period in years=unknown

$1,200,000=$287,270*(1+10%)^n

$1,200,000/$287,270=(1+10%)^n

$1,200,000/$287,270=(1.10)^n

take log of both sides

ln($1,200,000/$287,270)=n ln(1.10)

n=ln($1,200,000/$287,270)/ln(1.10)

n=15.00years

Which of the following is true of assigning costs to cost objects? a.Assigning costs to cost objects can be accomplished in a nu

podryga [215]

Answer:

A and B.

Explanation:

Understand cost classification used for assigning costs to cost objects can be divided in direct costs and indirect costs.

Direct costs are those who can be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Examples are direct material and labor.

Indirect costs are those who cannot be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Example manufacturing overhead.

The common costs are the indirect costs incurred in support a number of cost objects. These costs cannot be traced to any individual cost object.

Determining cost tracing and allocation is more art than science, as it's difficult to trace costs with 100 percent accuracy.

Tracing costs becomes even more difficult when a cost goes toward producing multiple goods or services.
