Answer:

b. creation of new products that are essentially free to consumers.

Explanation:

What caused the Measured productivity growth for the United States to have declined following the Great Recession is that the "creation of new products that are essentially free to consumers."

By creating new products that are essentially free for consumers, there is no generated income to raise the nation's productivity growth. The production of free commodities affects GDP negatively and thereby affects the economic development of a country.

Hence, during the Great Recession period, creating new products that are essentially free to consumers caused the measured productivity for the United States to decline.

A firm practices a chase strategy. Production last quarter was 1000. Demand over the next four quarters is estimated to be 900,
asambeis [7]

Answer:

$7,500

Explanation:

last quarter production was 1,000

production for the next four quarters:

  1. 900 ⇒ so 100 will be fired = 100 x $5 = $500 firing costs
  2. 700 ⇒ so 200 will be fired = 200 x $5 = $1,000 firing costs
  3. 1,000 ⇒ 300 will be hired = 300 x $20 = $6,000 hiring costs
  4. 1,000 ⇒ no one will be fired or hired

total firing and hiring costs = $500 + $1,000 + $6,000 = $7,500

When a firm pursues a chase strategy, it means that they are following the quantity demanded which is set by the market. They only follow the demand, they do not attempt to increase or decrease it.

You are considering paying $200,000 for an annuity today, and you know you need a yearly cash stream of $10,000 for expenses. Wh
dedylja [7]

The minimum annual interest rate needed to create the perpetual cash flow stream of $10,000 with a present value of $200,000 is <u>5%</u>.

<h3>What is a perpetuity?</h3>

A perpetuity is an annuity that continues for ever. To determine the interest rate, we divide the annuity $10,000 by the present value investment of $200,000 and then multiply by 100.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Present value of investment = $200,000

Annuity (yearly cash stream) - $10,000

Interest rate = 5% ($10,000/$200,000 x 100).

Thus, the interest rate needed to create the perpetual cash flow stream of $10,000 with a present value of $200,000 is <u>5%.</u>
