Duration; N = 25

Recurring payment; PMT = 23.6

Present value ; PV = -334

One-time future cashflow; FV = 0

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

GDP Price Deflator

Explanation:

GDP price deflator is a measure of the general changes in the price level of all the finished goods and services in a country in a period.  While GDP is a measure of the total output in an economy, the GDP price deflator shows the extent to which prices changed in a period. In proving the effects of price changes, the GDP deflator identifies a base year then compares the current prices to base year prices.

The GDP price deflator allows economists to compare the GDP   of different periods while considering the inflation between those periods. It does this by comparing the nominal GDP with the real GDP.

Suppose that a business incurred implicit costs of $200,000 and explicit costs of $1 million in a specific year. If the firm sol
Flura [38]

Answer: $200,000 and its economic profits were zero.

Explanation:

First and foremost, we should note that when calculating accounting profit, the implicit cost isn't taken into consideration.

Therefore, the accounting profit will be:

= Revenue - Explicit Cost

= (4000 × 300) - Explicit cost

= 1,200,000 - 1,000,000

= 200,000

Then, Economic Profit will be:

= Accounting profit - Implicit cost

= 200,000 - 200,000

=0

Therefore, its its accounting profits were $200,000 and its economic profits were zero.
