Answer:
Option C Incorrect; adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary
Explanation:
Adjustment to price changes = (Amount received n years ago divided by Price Index n years ago) * Price Index today
Adjustment To price changes = ($28,000 / 110.8) * 180.5 = $45613.7
The amount $28,000 is worth $45,613.7 in todays value which means that if we adjust for price changes, Dave is incorrect because his salary is worth less by an amount $613.7 from his father's salary.
Answer: The saving rate is 0.30
Explanation:
The Golden Rule savings rate is referred to as the rate of savings which maximizes steady state level or growth of consumption.
Let k be the capital/labour ratio (i.e., capital per capita), y be the resulting per capita output ( y = f(k) ), and s be the savings rate. The steady state is referred to as a situation in which per capita output is unchanging, which implies that k be constant. This requires that the amount of saved output be exactly what is needed to one quip any additional workers and two replace any worn out capital.
In a steady state, therefore: sf(k)=(n+d)k
Growth rate of output =3%
Depreciation rate= 4%
Capital output ratio is (K/Y)
= 2.5
Begin the steady state condition:
S= ( σ + n + g) (k/Y)
S= (0.03+0.04) (2.5)
S= 0.175
Golden rule steady state
MPK= (0.03+0.04)= 0.07
Capital output ratio=
K/Y= Capital share / MPK
K/Y= 0.3/0.07
K/Y= 4.29
In the golden state, the capital output ratio is equal to 4.29 in comparison to the current capital ratio 2.5.
The saving rate consistent with the steady growth rate
S= ( σ + n + g) (k/Y)
S= (0.03 +0.04) (4.29)
S= 0.30
The saving rate that is consistent with the steady growth rate is 0.30
Answer:
$15,780
Explanation:
The sticker price for a vehicle with all the features is the total of all the given cost elements.
These include the retail price, destination charge, cruise control, custom sound etc.
Hence, the sticker price for the vehicle
= $13,760 + $475 + $800 + $235 + $510
= $15,780
