Answer:

A.) supply-side

Explanation:

Fiscal policy in economics refers to the use of government expenditures (spending) and revenues (taxation) in order to influence macroeconomic conditions such as Aggregate Demand (AD), inflation, and employment within a country. Fiscal policy is in relation to the Keynesian macroeconomic theory by John Maynard Keynes.

A fiscal policy affects combined demand through changes in government policies, spending and taxation which eventually impacts employment and standard of living plus consumer spending and investment.

A supply-side economist can be defined as economists who believes that the ability and willingness of the producers of goods and services to manufacture or produce sets the pace for the economic growth of a country.

This ultimately implies that, increasing the supply of goods and services would cause an economic growth for a country.

Hence, a supply-side fiscal policy is typically designed to create an outward shift in the production possibilities curve (PPC) and shift the aggregate supply (AS) curve to the left.

Generally, a supply-side fiscal policy takes a longer period of time to affect the economy of a country.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

AFS 2004 market price decline exceeded 2005 market price recovery

No No

The security cannot be classified as available-for-sale because the unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Income Statement. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are recognized in owners' equity, not earnings.

The second part of the question is somewhat ambiguous. The 2004 price decline could exceed or be exceeded by the 2005 price recovery. The loss in the first year is not related in amount and does not constrain the realized gain in the second year.

The way to answer the question is to read the right column heading as implying that the earlier price decline must exceed the later price recovery. With that interpretation, the correct answer is no.

For example, assume a cost of $10 and a market value of $4 at the end of the first year. An unrealized loss of $6 is recognized in earnings. During the second year, the security is sold for $12. A realized gain of $8 is recognized-the increase in the market value from the end of the first year to the sale in the second year. Thus, the market decline in the first year did not exceed the recovery in year two. (It could have exceeded the recovery in year two but there is no requirement that it must.)

On December 31, 2018, a company had assets of $29 billion and stockholders' equity of $22 billion. That same company had assets

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

0.69

Explanation:

From the question above on December 31, 2018 a company has an assets of $29 billion and stockholders equity of $22 billion.

On December 31, 2019 the same company recorded an assets of $55billion and stockholders equity of $17billion

Inorder to calculate the debt-to-assess ratio the first step is to find the amount of liabilities

Liabilities= Assets-Stockholders equity

Assets= $55 billion

Stockholders equity= $17 billion

= $55billion-$17billion

= $38 billion

Therefore, the debt-to-assets ratio can be calculated as follows

Debt-to-assets ratio= Total liabilities/Total Assets

= $38 billion/ $55 billion

= 0.69

Hence on December 31, 3019 the debt-to-assets ratio is 0.69
