Answer: 12%

Explanation:

Stated interest rate is used in the calculation of the annual interest payment.

Interest payment = Face value of bonds * Stated interest rate

Annual Interest payment = Semi annual interest payment * 2

= 12,000 * 2

= $24,000

24,000 = 200,000 * Stated interest

Stated interest = 24,000 / 200,000

= 0.12

= 12%

Daniel [21]

Answer:

C. Encourage research

Explanation:

If a drug company discovers a new drug , it can apply for availing a patent for the same which shall grant it exclusive right to produce and sell the drug in the market for several years.

In such cases, the government tests such drugs if those are genuine before approving such a patent which creates the situation of a monopoly whereby the pharmaceutical company becomes the single seller of such drugs.

The purpose behind creation of such sort of monopolies being, this serves as an incentive or the encouragement for such pharmaceutical companies to carry out extensive research and thereby discover new drugs whose discovery would ultimately lead to common welfare.

How many days will it take for $1500 to earn $16 interest if it is deposited in a bank paying simple interest at the rate of 4%/
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

97 days

Explanation:

In simple interest method, the interest is calculated by the following formula

I= P x R x T

I= interest

P = principal amount

R =interest rate

T= Time

In this case

I=$16

P=$1500$

R= 4% or 0.04%

T= time

$16= $1500 x 0.04 x Time

$16 =60 x Time

Time = 16/60

time = 0.2666 year.

time in days =  0.26666 x 365 days

=97.333 days

=97 days

Explain how aggregate demand changes when the government increases taxes by​ $100 billion. Aggregate demand​ ______.
Mrac [35]

Answer: D. decreases by less than $100 billion because the tax multiplier is negative

Explanation:

If the Government were to increase taxes then it would reduce the amount of money for spending (disposable income) that people have to be able to buy goods and services.

As a result they will buy less goods and services but this would be less than the $100 billion tax imposed on them because the effect of the tax multiplier is negative.

Tax Multiplier = -Marginal Propensity to Consume / (1 - MPC)
