Answer:
6%
Explanation:
As per given data
Quarter Real GDP ($billions) Long-Run Trend of Real GDP ($billions)
1 4,000 4,000
2 4,160 4,120
3 4,326 4,244
4 4,413 4,371
5 4,501 4,502
6 4,591 4,637
7 4,499 4,776
8 4,409 4,919
9 4,673 5,067
10 4,954 5,219
11 5,252 5,376
12 5,376 5,537
Growth of GDP = (DGP of Current/recent period - GDP of Prior period) / DGP of Prior period
In this question prior period is quarter 10 and current /recent period is quarter 11.
So, formula will be
Growth of GDP = (DGP of quarter 11 - GDP of quarter 10) / GDP of quarter 10
As we need to calculate the real GDP growth the formula will be as follow
Growth of real GDP = (Real DGP of quarter 11 - Real GDP of quarter 10) / Real GDP of quarter 10
Growth of real GDP = ($5,252 billion - $4,954 billion) / $4,954 billion
Growth of real GDP = $298 billion / $4,954 billion
Growth of real GDP = 6.02% = 6%
Answer:
Decrease is taxes
Increase in government spending
Explanation:
Government policies that increases the money supply in an economy is known as expansionary fiscal policy. They are:
1. Decrease is taxes - when government reduces the tax rate, the amount paid as taxes falls and as a result individuals, companies have higher disposable income whuch can be used for consumption or saving. This increases the money supply in the economy.
2. Increase in government spending - if the government increases it's spending on public goods for example, money supply would increase. If the government constructs a road, labour would be employed and paid wages. This payment increases the income of Labour and money supply increases.
Central bank policies that increases money supply are known as expansionary monetary policies. They include:
1. Open market purchase: The central bank purchase securities from the open market to increase money supply.
2. Reduction in reserve requirement ratio : if the reserve requirement ratio is reduced , commercial banks would have more money to give out as loans and this would increase money supply.
Answer:
Labor Rate Variance = - $1,188 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Provided labor hours for each radio = 0.9
Standard labor cost per hour = $7.20
Actual labor cost = $48,708
Actual labor hours = 6,600
Actual labor rate = $48,708/6,600 = $7.38
Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)
Actual Hours
= ($7.20 - $7.38)
6,600 =<em><u> - $1,188 Unfavorable</u></em>
Answer:
135,000 shares
Explanation:
The stock split is the re-denomination of the shares where the number of shares increases without a corresponding increase in shareholders' equity.For instance assigning two shares for each share had earlier with two new shares priced at the price of previous one share,however in calculating the number of shares applicable to basic earnings stock split is treated retrospectively,as if it has always been part of the company's shares
Opening number of shares 60,000
add increase due to stock split(2*60,000)-60,000 60,000
new shares half-way through the year 30,000*6/12 15,000
Weighted average number of shares 135,000
