It's D. Increasing the reserve requirement on banks
Answer:
a) see attached graph. There is nothing unusual with the supply curve, it is simply fixed. This happens to most services, e.g. there is a fixed number of hotel rooms available for rent, in the short run you cannot add more rooms per night if the demand increases. In order to increase the quantity supplied, you would need to build a larger hotel, or in this case, a larger stadium.
b) the equilibrium price is $8 and the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 tickets
c) if the college plans to increase enrollment, the demand might increase, leading to a higher equilibrium price, but the supply will remain the same until the stadium is expanded.
Explanation:
Price Quantity Demanded (Qd) Quantity Supplied (Qs)
$4 10,000 8,000
$8 8,000 8,000
$12 6,000 8,000
$16 4,000 8,000
$20 2,000 8,000
Answer: $25,000
Explanation:
Given Data:
Gross income from coal = $250,000
Income from trucking coal = $20,000
Royalty paid to Donny = $30,000
Taxable income on call excluding depletion = $40,000
Coal depletion rate = 10%
Lease agreement = $4/ton
Therefore:
brian's percentage depletion deduction for the current year is
= gross income x coal depletion rate
= $250,000 x 0.1
=$25,000
Answer:
Inside the Production Possibility Frontier.
Explanation:
PPF is a curve that shows the various combination of 2 goods that an economy produces when resources are fixed. Thus, any point or bundle inside the production possibility frontier shows inefficiency in the production while the point on the production possibility frontier shows the efficient production from the available resources. But, the point outside the PPF exhibits a non-achievable point.
Answer:
$172.25
Explanation:
initial outlay for the project = -$350
cash flow years 1-5 = [($300 - $135 - $70) x (1 - 36%)] + $70 (depreciation expense) = $60.80 + $70 = $130.80
using an excel spreadsheet and the NPV function, we can calculate the project's NPV with an 8% discount rate:
=NPV(8%,130.80,130.80,130.80,130.80,130.80) - $350 = $522.25 - $350 = $172.25
we can also do it manually:
NPV = -$350 + $130.80/1.08 + $130.80/1.08² + $130.80/1.08³ + $130.80/1.08⁴ + $130.80/1.08⁵ = $172.25
