Answer:

         a.  increases the real interest rate, which reduces private investment spending.

        b.  is not a major concern, because the Fed will likely lower the real interest rate when actual output is far below potential.

Explanation:

Increase in government spending means that the government would probably have to borrow money from the credit market. Because the government is so large, it will borrow in large amounts which would force rates to rise. At these higher rates, the private sector might find it too expensive to borrow money and so would be crowed out such that they reduce their investment spending.

When the economy is facing an output that is lower than potential, the Fed will engage in monetary policy aimed at reducing interest rates to improve investment spending. This therefore negates the effect of crowing out which means that it would no longer be a major concern.

Answer:

1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,400 helmets?

3,400 helmets x 064 kgs per helmet = 2,176 kgs

2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,400 helmets?

2,176 kgs x $7 per kg = $15,232

3. What is the materials spending variance?

$15,484 - $15,232 = $252 unfavorable (because total expenditures on materials were higher than budgeted)

4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance?

materials price variance = [($15,484/2,346) - $7] x 2,346 = -$938 favorable (the purchase price per kg was lower than budgeted)

materials quantity variance = (2,346 - 2,176) x $7 = $1,190 unfavorable

Two investors have the following pattern of expected returns (Before-Tax Cash Flows): Investment A: Y1: $5,000; Y2: $10,000; Y3:
Arada [10]

Answer:

Investment A = 11.089%

Investment B = 12.772%

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

The internal rate of return can be calculated using a financial calculator

For investment A,

Cash flow in year zero = -$110,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $5,000

cash flow in Y2 = $10,000

cash flow in Y3 = $12,000

Cash flow in Y4 = $15,000 + $120,000 = $135,000

Irr = 11.089%

For investment B,

Cash flow in year zero = -$120,000

Cash flow in year one = $2,000

cash flow inY2: $4,000

cash flow in Y3: $1,000

cash flow in Y4: $5,000 + $180,000 = $185,000

IRR = 12.772%

To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

Llana [10]

Answer:

My Answer: Why did you choose to work here? How do you feel about the organization here? What are you likes about the company? Why are working in the same organization? Would you recommend the organization for future employees?

Explanation:

Plato's Answer: I interviewed my aunt, who works at Triple J Productions. She has been working there for 20 years. When she started out, the company offered voluntary monthly trainings for employees looking to advance. The company had a family picnic every summer for employees and their families. The company was very honest, cared about its employees, customers, etc. Three years ago, the CEO passed away. His son took over the company. Now, they do not have any company picnics. Training has stopped and the company often outsources jobs to employees who will work for low salaries. She is now quite unhappy at the company, but feels that she has invested too much time in it to go somewhere else. Ten years ago, she would have said it is a great place to work. Today, she feels that the company's common practices are sneaky and underhanded and their main motivation is money.

I hope it helps!
