Determine if the people in the example have benefited (i.e., are winners) or have been harmed (i.e., are losers) by unexpected i
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Winners

  • 3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

Losers

  • Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.
  • Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.
  • Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.
  • The US federal government which had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Explanation:

When unexpected inflation occurs, the usual plan to by Monetary Institutions of a country is raising the interest rates.

By doing that, they want to stop it or slowly decelerate it.

So that it becomes more expensive to take a loan, the idea is to reduce consumption.

In Economics, it's a bad scenario after all. Few winners. Many losers.

So, let's examine them

Winners

  • 3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

At first, The 3rd National is going to be winning since the value of the debt will rise, depending on the type of contract and an increase in the interest rate will demand corrections on the monthly payments. But on the other hand, the number of default clients and overdue installments will raise for sure.

Losers

  • Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.

Inflation reduces the real buying value of her checks. And her pension can't grow otherwise this will feed the inflation too.

  • Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.

Since his money is not invested then He's not having any earning that might give him some compensation. So his money is even more devalued.

  • Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.

Depending on the contract Joy might be sleepless. Either her monthly payments will become more expensive or She may experience difficulties because of the weekly growing prices.

  • The US federal government had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Certainly, the president and his secretary will have to address the fact that due to inflation and the chosen medicine make the nation's debt up to the sky. They must renegotiate the payment deadlines.

Suppose that there are no storage costs for crude oil and the interest rate for borrowing or lending is 5% per annum. How could
mario62 [17]

Answer:

$4.50

Explanation:

In order to make a profit from the futures contracts, it would be appropriate to take a long position in the  June futures contract(buy) and take a short position in the December futures contract.

The investor would borrow $60 today which would necessitate paying back $60 plus a half-year in interest payment.

loan repayment=$60*(1+5%/2)=$ 61.50  

In December, sell crude oil at $66 and repay the loan principal and interest

profit=$66-$61.50=$4.50

Information for Nighttime Company's direct labor cost for February is as follows: Actual direct labor hours 70,000 Total direct
podryga [215]

Answer:

71,100

Explanation:

The calculation of standard direct labor hours is shown below:-

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) × Actual hours worked

$35,000 = ($497,000 ÷ 70,000 - Standard rate) × 70,000

(7.1 - Standard rate) = $0.5

= $6.6 per hour

= Labor variance efficiency = (70,000 - Standard hour) × $6.6 per hour

= -$7,260 = (70,000 - Standard hour) × $6.6 per hour

Standard hours = $70,000 + 1,100

= 71,100
