Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

The demand curve faced by perfectly competitive firm is horizontal. This means that if individual firm charges price above the market price, it will not sell anything.

The curve is the same as marginal revenue curve because change in total revenue from selling one more unit(marginal revenue) is the constant market price.

And it holds in perfect market that price equals marginal revenue (P=MR).

The correct option is D.

It is May 1. The quoted price of a bond with a 30/360 day count and 12% per annum coupon in the United States is 105. It has a f

larisa86 [58]

Answer: option A is the correct option.

Cash price = 106.00

Explanation:

Cash price = quoted price + accrued interest

CP = Qp + I ..........................(1)

Quoted price = 105

Accrued interest = ?

STEP1 : FIND INTEREST;

Because the interest is not compounded

Accrued Interest = PRT ..........(2)

P= principal ( the face value)

R = rate per annum

T= period

P= 100

Since the period of payment of the face value was from April 1 to October 1 that means the period is 180 days, that means the 12% rate per annum (360 days), should be 6% rate per halve annum (180 days).

Therefore;

R = 6%

Since rate is applied every 30 days of the period which is 30/360 for an annum. Our period is 180 that's means rate will be applied to 30/180.

Therefore;

T = 30/180

Therefore using equation 2

I = 100 × 6% × (30/180) = 1.00

Accrued interest= 1.00

STEP 2: FIND CASH PRICE

using equation 1

Cash price = 105 + 1.00 = 106.00

If we look at the equation for money demand from Irving Fisher, which of the following statements is true?

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The money equation given by Irving fisher is popularly known as fisher's equation.

The equation is given as MV=PT

Here, M represents money supply, V is the velocity of money, P is the price level and T refers to the volume of transactions or output level.

The supply of money refers to the quantity of money in existence while the velocity of transactions shows the number of times, money changes hands. Together they show the volume of money in circulation.

P is the average price level and T represents the expenditures on all transactions or, in other words, output level.

Here, V and T are assumed to be constant. This means that the money supply directly affects the price level.

There is no explicit mention of the interest rate in this equation.

So, option D is the correct answer.

Suppose the current level of output is 5000. If the elasticities of output with respect to capital and labor are 0.3 and 0.7, re

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

5575

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

<u>Factor Elasticity Increase Effective Increase </u>

A B A × B

Capital 0.3 10% 3.00%

Labor 0.7 5% 3.50%

Increase due to Productivity 5.00%

Total Increase in Output 11.50%

(3% + 3.5% + 5%)

Original Output 5000

Increase in Output (5000 × 11.5%) 575

Increase Output (5000 + 575) 5575

The cob Douglas production function is given by Q(K,L)=AK^1.4*L^1.6

Alexeev081 [22]

Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

$Q(K,L)=AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } .$

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

$Q(tK,tL)=A(tK)^{1.4} (tL)^ {1.6 } .$

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

$Q(tK,tL)=At^{1.4}K^{1.4} t^ {1.6 }L^ {1.6 } .$

This implies that:

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4} \times t^ {1.6 }(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4 + 1.6}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Simplify the exponent of t to get;

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{3}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3

Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L}=3AK^{1.4}L^{1.6}$

Verifying from the left:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =K(1.4AK^{0.4} L^{1.6}) + L(1.6AK^{1.4} L^{0.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =1.4(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6}) + 1.6(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =(1.4 + 1.6)(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =3(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

Lucky Inc. reported sales revenue of $385,000, operating expenses of $65,000, and a net loss of $23,000 for the most recent fisc

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$343,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales revenue = $385,000

Operating expenses = $65,000

Net loss = $23,000

Gross profit:

= Net loss + Operating expenses

= - $23,000 + $65,000

= $42,000

Cost of goods sold:

= Sales revenue - Gross profit

= $385,000 - $42,000

= $343,000

Therefore, the amount of cost of goods sold for the Lucky is $343,000.
