Answer:

a. No change in GDP.

There will be no change in GDP resulting from this transaction. Resales are considered double counting because the good had already been paid for before and so will inflate GDP.

b. GDP increase by $12,500. U.S. Consumption.

This is a consumption transaction as money is being spent to satisfy the need for education. It will therefore increase GDP by $12,500.

c. No change in GDP.

Intermediate goods to be used in production are not included in GDP to avoid double counting. Only the final value of goods and services are included. This is an intermediate good and so will not be included.

d. Increase in GDP $16,000. Government purchase of goods or services.

Mr. Luong works in a Public University which means that his salary is paid for by the government. This will increase GDP by $16,000 as it represents money spent by Government.

e. Decrease in GDP $500. Net Exports.

As this good was bought from outside the country, it is an import. Imports reduce a country's GDP because they reduce the Net exports. GDP will therefore reduce by $500.

f. Increase in GDP by plane value. Investment.

So long as the goods have already been produced in their final form, they will be part of GDP. They will increase GDP by their value and are a part of Investment.

Ivenika [448]

Answer: Equilibrium price is $20 and equilibrium quantity is 4 units.

Explanation: Equilibrium is a situation of rest, a situation where demand for a good is equal to its supply. The price that balance demand and supply is known as the equilibrium price.

Q_{xd} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x}\\Q_{xs} = \[tex]Q_{xd} = Q_{xs}  14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x} =   \frac{1}{4} P_{x}  - 1 14 + 1 = \frac{1}{4} P_{x} + \frac{1}{2} P_{x}   15 = \frac{3}{4} P_{x}  20 = P_{x}[/tex] =  Equilibrium price


Equilibrium quantity is given by,

Q_{xd} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} * 20= 14 - 10= 4

You are given the following information for Sookie's Cookies Co.: sales = $51,200; costs = $39,600; addition to retained earning
ipn [44]

Answer:

The depreciation expense for the company is $4615.

Explanation:

profit before depreciation and tax = (sales - cost) - interest expense

= ($51,200  - $39,600)  - $1,560  

= $10040

Addition to retained earnings = $2,320

dividends paid = $935

tax rate = 40 percent.

Addition to retained earnings = [(Profit before depreciation and tax - depreciation expense ) * (1- Tax)] - dividend paid

$2320 = [($10040 - depreciation expense)* (1 - 0.40)] - 935

$3255 = ($10040 - depreciation expense)* 0.60

$5425 = $10040 - depreciation expense

Depreciation expense = 10040 - 5425

                                      = $4615

Therefore, The depreciation expense for the company is $4615.
