Answer:

Value Added :- Farmer : $1 ; Miller : $2 ; Baker : $3

GDP = $6

Explanation:

Value Added is the Value of Output less intermediate inputs.

Value Added = Value of Output - Intermediate Inputs

Farmer Value Added = Value of Wheat - Intermediate Inputs

= 1 - 0 = $1

Miller Value Added  = Value of Flour - Value of Wheat

= 3 - 1 = $2

Baker Value Added = Value of Bread - Value of Flour

= 6 - 3 = $3

GDP is total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a given period of time. It is sum of Value Added ; GDP =  Σ GVA.

GDP = 1 + 2 + 3 = $6

Answer:

(a) $1; $2; $3; $0

(b) $6

Explanation:

Value added in a good is defined as the difference between the selling price and production cost.

(i) Value added by farmer = Bushel of wheat sold to miller

                                           = $1

(ii) Value added by miller:

= Selling price of flour - Purchasing price of wheat

= $3 - $1

= $2

(iii) Value added by baker:

= Selling price of bread - Purchasing price of flour

= $6 - $3

= $3

(iv) Value added by an engineer:

= $0

Because engineer is the final consumer of bread.

Gross domestic product (GDP):

= Value added by farmer + Value added by miller + Value added by baker + Value added by an engineer

= $1 + $2 + $3 + $0

= $6

1. What are some considerations in choosing a financial institution? Which one do you think would be the most important consider
Greeley [361]
1. In choosing a financial institution you must consider how frequently the bank responds, how long they operate on the weekends, the notary services they are offering, the loans you can get and their financial strength among others. The most important factor to consider would be the institution's financial strength since you must only put your trust in institutions with high strength.

2. One good thing about the U.S. savings bonds is their security and the fact that the investments that you will make in these bonds will not cost you any form of state or local taxes. Cons would include its complexity though as it can get hard for you to identify when the bonds will mature, their interest rates, when to know how to cash them, and their current value.

3. If you put your trust in the so-called "problematic" financial institutions, you are basically gambling your money away. First of all, as mentioned earlier, you must only put your trust in banks with a healthy financial strength since problematic ones will be unreliable and unsafe. Trusting them can lead to your money being stolen or you can also be bombarded with additional fees.

4. The state and local government have laws that will protect the consumer from unfair practices or frauds. As an individual, you can add more security to protect yourself and your money. This protection includes setting up alerts on your bank account, adding a two-step verification on your emails so no one can access it easily, as well as avoiding calling lists.

5. One major advantage is that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has a $100,000 guarantee per institution so your investment won't be totally gone during unfortunate circumstances. The disadvantage, on the other hand, is that the interest rates on federally-insured accounts are below the inflation rate so you can expect a decrease in the value of your money over time.

In your company's management development program, there was a heated discussion between
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The most sensible position is to understand that theory, while not practical in itself, can be immensely helpful when dealing with pratical matters.

This is because theory gives you a sound conceptual foundation that can be used to analyze the practical context, and approach it with the best possible practical solutions.

Without theory, managers have to rely too much on intuition, which can often fail.
