Answer: False

Explanation:

In both the first and second years, firms in country A undertook FDI projects of $20 billion in country B. This means that Country A had FDI outflows of $20 billion in those two years not inflows. Inflows are what happens when the FDI is coming into the country.

Country B on the other hand, was receiving money from country A. Country B therefore had FDI inflows of $20 billion in each of the two years and not outflows like Country A had.

The owner of a bicycle repair shop forecasts revenues of $188,000 a year. Variable costs will be $57,000, and rental costs for t
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Revenues=$188,000

Less: Variable Costs=$57,000

Less: Rentals=$37,000

Earnings before depreciation and tax=$94,000

Less: Depreciation =$17,000

Earnings before tax=$77,000

Less: Tax40%=$30,800

Net Income=$46,200

a) Dollars in minus dollars out

Dollars in = Revenues = $188,000

Dollars out = Variable cost + Rentals + Tax = $57,000 + $37,000 + $30,800 = $124,800

Operating cash flow = $188,000 - $124,800 = $63,200

b) Adjusted accounting profits

Operating cash flow = Net income + Depreciation = $46,200 + $17,000 = $63,200

c) Add back depreciation tax shield

Operating cash flow = Earnings before depreciation and tax x (1 - tax rate) + Depreciation tax shield

or, Operating cash flow = $94,000 x (1 - 0.40) + $17,000 x 40% = $63,200

Yes, all the results are same.

A nation that has a comparative advantage in producing a good or service compared to
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Opportunity cost

Explanation:

A country is said to have a comparative advantage in producing a good, if it has a lower opportunity cost of producing that good in comparison to the other country. For instance if the opportunity cost of producing Wheat in U.S is 2. While that in China is 1. It shows that China has a comparative advantage in producing wheat as compared to the U.S.

So a nation that has a comparative advantage in producing a good or service compared to the other nation can produce that good or service with a lower opportunity cost.

Efficiency, Profit and Resource cost are not directly related to comparative advantage. Although efficiency can contribute towards lower opportunity cost but it is not a scale used for international trade.

Thus, lower opportunity cost is the best alternative.
