Answer:

-$1,500

Explanation:

If the current interest rate is 8%, you earn an economic profit of:

Economic profit = Profit - Opportunity cost

Economic profit = (0.05 * $50000) - (0.08 * $50000)

Economic profit = $2,500 - $4,000

Economic profit = -$1,500

So, i will earn an economic loss of $1,500

In the Keynesian-cross analysis, if the consumption function is given by C = 20 + 0.7 (Y – T), and planned investment is 100, G
Lyrx [107]

Answer: 500

Explanation:

At equilibrium, it should be noted that,

Y = C + I + G

where ,

C = Consumption = 20 + 0.7(Y - T)

I = Investment = 100

G = Government expenditure = 100

Y = C + I + G

Y = 20 + 0.7(Y - 100) + 100 + 100

Y = 20 + 0.7Y - 70 + 200

Y - 0.7Y = 150

0.3Y = 150

Y = 150/0.3

Y = 500

Jawbreaker Company paid $640 on account to a creditor. The transaction was erroneously recorded as a debit to Cash of $640 and a
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

A. Accounts Payable 1,280 Cash 1,280

Explanation:

Jawbreaker Company paid $640 on account to a creditor. The transaction was erroneously recorded as a debit to Cash of $640 and a credit to Accounts Payable of $640.

The correcting entry is a debit to Accounts Payable of 1,280 and a credit to Cash of 1,280

The correct entry for payment of a creditor on account is to

Dr Account Payable........640

Cr Cash......................................640

However the opposite to the above entry was passed which will give rise to an error double the impact of the transaction value because:

1.The correct transaction to the value of $640 is missing

2. The opposite of the transaction to the value of $640 is existing.

Hence the impact of the error is double the amount which explains the reason why the correction involved twice the value of $640 which is $1,280

A perpetuity pays $100 each and every year forever. the duration of this perpetuity will be:_________
Scrat [10]

Perpetuity pays $100 each and every year forever. the duration of this perpetuity will be 12.11

Yield rate = 9% or 0.09

Duration of perpetuity = (1+ Interest Rate) / Interest Rate

                                  = 1+ 0.09 / 0.09

                                   = 1.09 / 0.09

                                    = 12.11

A perpetual annuity is a never-ending annuity or series of cash payments that lasts forever. True eternity is rare. For example, the UK government has issued them in the past. These were known as consoles and were all eventually redeemed in 2015. Cash flow is endless.
