Vikki [24]

Answer:

If the aggregate supply—also referred to as the short-run aggregate supply or SRAS—curve shifts to the right, then a greater quantity of real GDP is produced at every price level. If the aggregate supply curve shifts to the left, then a lower quantity of real GDP is produced at every price level.

Explanation:

A shift in aggregate supply can be attributed to many variables, including changes in the size and quality of labor, technological innovations, an increase in wages, an increase in production costs, changes in producer taxes, and subsidies and changes in inflation.

In summary, aggregate supply in the short run (SRAS) is best defined as the total production of goods and services available in an economy at different price levels while some resources to produce are fixed... As prices increase, quantity supplied increases along the curve.

Sav [38]

Answer:

The amount of the projected benefit obligation at December 31 was $ 38.34 million

Explanation:

According to the given data, we have the following:

Beginning PBO= $29.4 million

Service cost= $9.4 million

The actuary's discount rate was 10%, hence Interest cost (10% x $29.4 million)= $2.94 million

Also, there is a Loss (gain) on PBO=$0 , and pension benefits paid by the trustee were $3.4 million.

Therefore, to calculate the amount of the projected benefit obligation at December 31 we would have to use the following formula:

Ending PBO=Beginning PBO+Service cost+Interest cost-pension benefits

=$29.4 million+$9.4 million+$2.94-$3.4 million

=$38.34 million
