Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
1. Inflationary Gap.
Due to the availability of more disposal income due to tax cuts, more amount is being spent on consumption leading to a rise in actual GDP which is more than the potential GDP as the economy has not adjusted.
2. Output Gap.
This is the difference between the Actual GDP and the Potential GDP.
3. Demand Shock
This increases or reduces Aggregate Demand due but only temporarily.
4. Recessionary Gap.
This is where actual GDP falls below Potential GDP.
5. Supply Shock.
Like a demand shock, it suddenly increases or reduces the supply of goods and services. It is temporary as well.
6. Self Correction
Economists believe that in the long run, the Economy is capable of adjusting to shocks and returning to it's potential and natural levels.
I believe the answer is “a” or “paying cash dividends.”
Answer:
16.54%
Explanation:
We have to applied the rate formula that is shown in the attachment.
The NPER shows the time period.
Given that,
Present value = $2,500
Future value or Face value = $5,375
PMT = $0
NPER = 6 years - 1 years = 5 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the annual rate of return is implied is 16.54%
Answer:
4.7
Explanation:
The computation of the degree of operating leverage is presented below:
= Contribution margin ÷ Net income
= $59,690 ÷ $12,700
= 4.7
where,
Contribution margin = Sales - Variable costs
And, the net income would be
= Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs
The net income is also known as earning before interest and taxes
Answer:
b. 51,429 units
Explanation:
If x = Number of units
Net Income = Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost
or
Net Income = Contribution Margin - Fixed Cost
where,
Net Income = $80,000
Contribution Margin per unit = $3.50
Fixed Cost = $100,000
Contribution Margin = Net Income + Fixed Cost
$3.50x = $80,000 + $100,000
$3.50x = $180,000
Dividing the above equation by $3.50 we get
x = $180,000 / $3.50
x = 51,429 units
Hence 51,429 number of units must be sold to generate the net income of $80,000.
