soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: 2,000; 0.4

Explanation:

We can write the initial consumption function as,

C = a + bY

8,000 = a + 10,000b

a = 8,000 - 10,000b

The new consumption function is,

14,000 = a + 20,000b

Putting value of a in this function

14,000 = 8,000 - 10,000b + 20,000b

14,000 - 8,000 = 10,000b

b  = \frac{6,000}{10,000}

b = 0.6

Putting the value of b in the initial function,

8,000 = a + 10,000 \times0.6

a = 8,000 - 6,000

a = $2,000

The marginal propensity to consume or b is 0.6.

The marginal propensity to save will be

= 1 - 0.6

= 0.4

Leona [35]
<span>Implicit Cost Explicit Cost The wholesale cost for the pianos that Darnell pays the manufacturer $452,000 The salary Darnell could earn if he worked as an accountant $48,000 The wages and utility bills that Darnell pays $301,000 The rental income Darnell could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom $38,000 B. Profit ($) Accounting Profit 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000 = 89,000 Economic Profit 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000 - 48,000 - 38,000 = 3,000 C. Economic Profit as an accountant = 48,000 + 38,000 - 89,000 = -$3,000. Thus, Darnell should stay in the Piano business to maximize the Economic Profit.</span>

Allen Construction purchased a crane 6 years ago for $130,000. They need a crane of this capacity for the next 5 years. Normal o
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

<u>For retaining of Old Machine Equipment</u>

Price of old equipment 3 yrs ago = $130,000

O & M cost per year = $35,000

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   Old equipment

0                            $0            Initial Cash flow

1                         -$35,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

5                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

Hence, Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost

Annual worth = 0 - $35,000

Annual worth = -$35,000

<u>For buying of new equipment</u>

Cost of buying new crane = $150,000

Market value of old crane = $40,000

Time = 5 years

O & M cost per year = $8,000

Salvage value = $55,000

MARR = 20%

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   New equipment

0                         $110,000    -$150,000 + $40,000

1                         -$8,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

5                        $47,000     -$8,000 + $55,000

Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost + Salvage value

Annual worth = -$110,000(A/P 20%,5) - $8,000 + $55,000(A/P 20%,5)

Annual worth = -$110,000*(0.334) - $8,000 + $55,000*(0.134)

Annual worth = -$36,781.77 - $8,000 + $7,390.88

Annual worth = -$37,908.88

Conclusion: We should retain the old machine as it is more favorable than purchase of new equipment

Suppose independent truckers operate in a perfectly competitive constant cost industry. If these firms are earning positive econ
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The price of trucking services would fall until equilibrium prices are reached. Only normal profit would be earned in the long run

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
