Answer:

7 years (to the nearest year)

Explanation:

Given that;

A = amount

P= principal

t = time

r = rate

A =3P(given in the question)

Formula for compound interest;

A = P(1 + r)^t

Substituting values;

3P = P(1 + 18/100)^t

3P/P= (1.18)^t

3 = (1.18)^t

log 3 = t log 1.18

t = log 3/log 1.18

t = 0.4771/0.0719

t = 6.6 years

t = 7 years (to the nearest year)

Answer:

d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.

Explanation:

Suggesting that the government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists because the process of implementing fiscal policy usually experiences lag as it is being slowed down by the political system (bureaucracy) of checks and balances.

Fiscal policy is the use of government expenditures, revenues and tax policies to influence macroeconomic conditions such as employment, inflation and Aggregate Demand (ADl in a specific country.

The benefits of fiscal policy is that investments, savings and growth is usually influenced in the long-run while it basically influences aggregate demand for goods and services in the short-run.

Suppose Country Cafe restaurant is considering whether to​ (1) bake bread for its restaurant​ in-house or​ (2) buy the bread fro
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Question

Suppose Country Cafe restaurant is considering whether to​ (1) bake bread for its restaurant​ in-house or​ (2) buy the bread from a local bakery. The chef estimates that variable costs of making each loaf include $ 0.52 of​ ingredients, $ 0.23 of variable overhead​ (electricity to run the​ oven), and $ 0.78 of direct labor for kneading and forming the loaves. Allocating fixed overhead​ (depreciation on the kitchen equipment and​ building) based on direct​ labor, Country Cafe assigns $ 1.04 of fixed overhead per loaf. None of the fixed costs are avoidable. The local bakery would charge $ 1.74 per loaf.

  1. What is the absorption cost of making the bread
  2. What is the variable cost
  3. Should Country make the bread or buy
  4. What other factors should be considered

Answer

  1. Absorption costing cost per unit= $2.57
  2. Variable costing cost per unit=1.53
  3. It will be cheaper for Country Cafe to produce internally than to buy from outside as it will save $0.21 per unit of bread
  4. See explanation for other factors

Explanation:

Absorption cost= Direct cost + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead

                   = 0.52 + 0.23+ 0.78 + 1.04

                   = $2.57

Variable cost of making the loaf= Direct cost + Variable overhead

                     =0.52 + 0.23+ 0.78 = $1.53

                                                                               $

Variable cost of making                                     1.53

External purchase price                                      <u>1.74</u>

Extra cost of external purchase per unit            <u>0.21 </u>

It will be cheaper for Country Cafe to produce internally that to buy from outside as it will save $0.21 per unit of bread

Non-Financial factors

Product Quality. Country Cafe needs to be sure that the quality of bread to be provided wont be undermined.  should it decides to buy.

Trade secret: is there a guarantee that the contractor would not divulge or abuse the privileged information about the ingredients to be mixed and some other trade secrets

Delivery : Reliable and timely delivery are very important. Would the external supplier be able to meet expectations?
