Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a

plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.

Answer:

The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.

Explanation:

The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.

In the trial balance, all the accounts with debit balances are listed before the accounts with credit balances.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The trial balance is prepared at the end of a counting period after all the accounts have been closed. The trial balance captures all the debits on one side and credits on the other. If the trial balance does not balance, it signifies errors in the general ledger. A balanced trial balance does not guarantee the absence of errors.

In preparing a trial balance, accountants usually follow the order of accounts as they follow each other as per the general ledger.  It is not a requirement that either debits or credits come first.

A fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The 1st is a stock fund, the 2nd is a long-term government and corporate bond
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Expected return is: 7.37% and the Standard deviation is: 24.96%

Explanation:

Correlation between fund S&B=0,0667

Standard Deviation of Fund S=41%

Standard Deviation of Fund(B)=30%

E(R) of Stock Fund S=12%

E(R) of Stock Fund B=5%

Covariance between the funds = Standard Deviation of Fund(B) × Standard Deviation of Fund S × correlation between these funds

Cov = 0.41 × 0.30 × 0.0667 = 0.008204

Now minimum variance portfolio is found by applying:

W min(S)=(SDB)^2-Cov(B,S) / ((SDS)^2+(SDB)^2-2Cov(B,S)

W min(S) = 0.338431

W min(B) = 1-0.338431=0.661569

1) E(r)min= 0.338431 × 12% + 0.661569 × 5% = 7.37%

2) Standard Deviation:

SD Min = (Ws^2XSDs^2+Wb^2XSDb^2+2XWsWb*Cov(s,B)^1/2

SDmin=(0.338431^2 × 0.41^2 + 0.661569^2 ×   0.3^2   + 2 × 0.338431 × 0.661569 × 0.008204)^1/2

SDmin=24.96%
