Answer: True

Explanation:

Looking at the Production Function you will notice that Output increases at different rates to input added. First output increases at an increasing rate then at a constant rate then at a decreasing rate.

This shows the concept of the Law of Diminishing Marginal returns because as more input(labor) was added, at some point the output started increasing at a decreasing rate till it gets to a point where marginal returns will be negative.

The reason for this is that each worker is now working with less capital than before (assuming capital doe not change) and so will only produce less.

On August 1, 1958, first-class postage for a 1-ounce envelope was 4 cents. On August 1, 2007, a first-class stamp for the same e

Andrej [43]

Answer:

4.86%

Explanation:

Given that,

First-class postage for a 1-ounce envelope = 4 cents

On August 1, 2007

A first-class stamp for the same envelope cost = 41 cents

Period, n = 49 years

$F=P(1+i)^{n}$

$41=P(1+i)^{49}$

$\frac{41}{4}=(1+i)^{49}$

$10.25\ cents=(1+i)^{49}$

$1.0486=(1+i)$

i = 1.0486 - 1

= 0.0486 or 4.86%

Therefore, the interest rate is 4.86%.

Mark Johnson saves a fixed percentage of his salary at the end of each year. This year he saved $2,500. For each of the next 5 y

yarga [219]

Answer:

Mark will have at the end of six years the amount of $25,865.74

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

First investment = 2500

Investment increasing at rate of 10%

Interest rate = 13%

t=6 years

Present value is given by formula = C * [((1+g)^n/(1+i)^n) - 1 ] / (g-i)

C is first value = 2,500

g is increase in investment = 0.10

i is intrest rate = 0.13

n is no of years = 6

Putting values into the equation

P = 2500* [((1+ 0.10)^6/(1+0.13)^6) - 1 ] / (0.10-0.13) 1.771561 2.08195

P = 2500* [((1.10)^6/(1.13)^6) - 1 ] / (-0.03)

P = 2500* [0.8509142870866 - 1 ] / (-0.03)

P = 2500* (-0.14908571)/ (-0.03)

P = 2500* 4.9695236

P=$12,423.809

Future value = P*(1+i)^t

= $12,423.809 *(1+0.13)^6

= $25,865.74

Mark will have at the end of six years the amount of $25,865.74

Marko, Inc. is considering the purchase of ABC Co. Marko believes that ABC Co. can generate cash flows of $5,000, $9,000, and $1

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$21,435.74

Explanation:

Marko will pay as much as the discounted present value of the cash flow:

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $5,000.00

time 1.00

rate 0.14000

$\frac{5000}{(1 + 0.14)^{1} } = PV$

PV 4,385.9649

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $9,000.00

time 2.00

rate 0.14000

$\frac{9000}{(1 + 0.14)^{2} } = PV$

PV 6,925.2078

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $15,000.00

time 3.00

rate 0.14000

$\frac{15000}{(1 + 0.14)^{3} } = PV$

PV 10,124.5727

We add them together and get the total price for ABC Co

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}#&Cashflow&Discounted\\&&\\1&5000&4385.96\\2&9000&6925.21\\3&15000&10124.57\\&total&21435.74\\\end{array}\right]$
