Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. an increase in the money supply lowers the equilibrium rate of interest.

Explanation:

The preference for liquidity is a recurring expression in the study of economics, especially important in Keynesian theory and which assumes that people consider it better to have their savings in liquid form, that is, as money.

This concept, very recurrent in macroeconomics, assumes the existence of an outstanding trend in human and rational behavior whereby individuals prefer to have their assets in an accessible and liquid way compared to other possibilities. Originally, the definition of liquidity preference was coined by Keynes when explaining the concept of monetary demand and its mode of action.

This theory suggests that there is a direct relationship between interest rates or rates and people's preferences in terms of liquidity, since both keeping money effectively and not doing so carry certain costs for them. In other words, saving money can translate into financial gain.

For Keynes, there were three reasons why the individuals who make up the money demand opt for liquidity and money: transactions, caution and speculation.

A firm that shuts down temporarily has to pay a. its fixed costs but not its variable costs. b. its variable costs but not its f

Kamila [148]

Answer:

its fixed costs but not its variable costs.

Explanation:

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g, rent, mortgage payments

If production is zero or if production is a million, Mortgage payments do not change - it remains the same no matter the level of output.

Hourly wage costs and payments for production inputs are variable costs

Variable costs are costs that vary with production

If a producer decides not to produce any output, there would be no need to hire labour and thus no need to pay hourly wages.

When a firm that shuts down temporarily, the firm would still have to pay expenses such as rent and electricity bills. These constitute fixed cost. But the firm would not have to pay variable costs e.g. the cost of buying raw materials used in variation.

On the other hand, if the firm shuts down permanently, it would not pay both its variable costs and its fixed costs

The (annual) expected return and standard deviation of returns for 2 assets are as follows: Asset A Asset B E[r] 10% 20% SD[r] 3

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Part A

(i) Weight(A) = 0.80 , Weight(B) = 0.20

ER(portfolio) = { ER(A) * Weight(A) } + { ER(B) * Weight(B) }

= { 10 * 0.80 } + { 20 * 0.20 }

= 12%

SD(portfolio) = { SD(A)^2 * W(A)^2 + SD(B)^2 * W(B)^2 + 2*SD(A) * SD(B) * W(A) * W(B) * CORR }^1/2

= { 900*0.64 + 2500*0.04 + 2*30*50*0.8*0.2*0.15}^1/2

= {748}^1/2

= 27.35%

(ii) Weight(A) = 0.50 , Weight(B) = 0.50

ER(portfolio) = { ER(A) * Weight(A) } + { ER(B) * Weight(B) }

= { 10 * 0.50 } + { 20 * 0.50 }

= 15%

SD(portfolio) = { SD(A)^2 * W(A)^2 + SD(B)^2 * W(B)^2 + 2*SD(A) * SD(B) * W(A) * W(B) * CORR }^1/2

= { 900*0.25 + 2500*0.25 + 2*30*50*0.5*0.5*0.15}^1/2

= {917.5}^1/2

= 30.29 %

(iii) Weight(A) = 0.20 , Weight(B) = 0.80

ER(portfolio) = { ER(A) * Weight(A) } + { ER(B) * Weight(B) }

= { 10 * 0.20 } + { 20 * 0.80 }

= 18 %

SD(portfolio) = { SD(A)^2 * W(A)^2 + SD(B)^2 * W(B)^2 + 2*SD(A) * SD(B) * W(A) * W(B) * CORR }^1/2

= { 900*0.04 + 2500*0.64 + 2*30*50*0.2*0.8*0.15}^1/2

= {1708}^1/2

= 41.33 %

Part B

Let Weight(A) be x, and Weight(B) be (1-x)

Solving the ER(portfolio) Equation :

ER(portfolio) = { ER(A) * Weight(A) } + { ER(B) * Weight(B) }

25 = {10 * x } + {20 * (1 - x) }

25 = 10x + 20 - 20x

25 - 20 = -10x

x = - 0.5

Weight (A) = - 0.5 {its Negative which means Short Selling of Stock A}

Weight (B) = 1 - (-0.5) = 1.5

<u><em>Cross-Proof</em></u>

ER (portfolio) = { ER(A) * Weight(A) } + { ER(B) * Weight(B) }

= { 10 * -0.5 } + { 20 * 1.5 }

= { - 5 } + { 30 }

= 25% . Therefore, our Weights are Correct

Calculation of SD (portfolio)

SD(portfolio) = { SD(A)^2 * W(A)^2 + SD(B)^2 * W(B)^2 + 2*SD(A) * SD(B) * W(A) * W(B) * CORR }^1/2

= { 900*0.25 + 2500*2.25 + 2*30*50*-0.5*1.5*0.15}^1/2

= { 225 + 5625 - 337.5 }^1/2

= {5512.5}1/2

= 74.2 %

During the taking of its physical inventory on December 31, 2014, Barry's Bike Shop incorrectly counted its inventory as $225,51

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The inventory would be increased by $55,283 and the profit has been decreased by the same amount.

Explanation:

The reason is that the closing inventory has been increased by the difference of the correct and incorrect amount which is:

Closing inventory difference = $225,513 - $170,230 = $55,283

This will increase the closing inventory in the balance sheet and the increase in the closing inventory will decrease the cost of goods sold. The lower the cost of goods sold the greater is the profit.

Handmade Soaps Company had operating expenses of $52,000. At the beginning of the year, Handmade Soaps owed $15,000 on accrued l

Softa [21]

Answer:

Cash Paid = $62000

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of cash paid by the business for operating expenses during the year, we use the following equation.

Cash Paid = Opening Accrued liability + Operating expenses for the year - Closing Accrued Liability

By plugging in the values for opening accrued liabilities, operating expenses for the year and closing accrued liabilities in the above formula, we can calculate the amount of cash paid for operating expenses.

Cash Paid = 15000 + 52000 - 5000

Cash Paid = $62000
