Answer:
1. Increasing
2. A. The elasticity of private saving with respect to the after-tax real interest rate
B. The response of private saving to changes in the government budget deficit
C. The elasticity of investment with respect to the interest rate
Explanation:
1. It is difficult to implement both of these policies at the same time because reducing taxes on private spending has the effect of <u><em>Increasing</em></u> the government budget deficit.
A Government budget deficit is acquired when the government spends more than it earns. The Government earns money from taxes and if it spends more than it receives in taxes, that will lead to a deficit. If taxes on Private spending are reduced, this will lead to less tax revenue for the government thereby increasing the Deficit.
2. All of the listed options are useful in determining which policy would be a more effective way to raise investment.
The elasticity of private saving with respect to the after-tax real interest rate refers to how much private saving changes in reaction to a change in the tax rates. This can enable one decide how much investment will be expected if the Government reduces or increases taxes.
The response of private saving to changes in the government budget deficit is also a useful factor to look at because private savings reduce when government deficits reduce.
Also how much does investment change by due to interest rates. This will be important to note in terms of Private Investment to see if it will be beneficial to use it over reducing the government budget deficit given a certain interest rate.
Answer:
Flexible manufacturing systems (FMS)
Explanation:
FMS stands for the Flexible manufacturing systems, which is described as the method of production, which is designed in order to adapt the changes in the kind and the quantity of the product which is being manufactured.
The computerized systems and the machines could be configured to manufacture the variety of the parts and handle the production changing levels.
Therefore, the FMS is the one which is a single production system that combines the CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) and the electronic machines.
Answer:
management has not explained its business purpose
Explanation:
Since in the question it is mentioned that the firm is engaged in the new financial transaction that contains the material impact on the earnings so this represents that it could be come under the pre existed accounting standards.
Also everyone should be aware of the business purpose plus it is not established for changing off the financial statements
So it would be suspicious because the purpose of the business could not be explained
Answer:
g = 16%
dividends yield:
Year 1 4.60%
Year 3: 4.78%
<u>expected rate of return: </u>
year 1 20.6%
year 3 20.78%
<u></u>
Explanation:
<u>grow rate:</u>
D1 /D0 = g
1.16/1.00 - 1 = 0.16
1.3456/1.16 - 1 = 0.16
the grow rate is 16%
<u>dividend yield:</u>
dividends/stock price = dividend yield
1/21.7 = 0,0460 = 4.60%
1.3456/28.15 = 0,04780 = 4.78%
<u>expected rate of return: </u>
dividend yield + grow rate
4.60% + 16% = 20.6%
4.78% + 16% = 20.78%
Answer: $15,000
Explanation: The 80% coinsurance clause on the property means that the insurance policy holder is agreeing to contribute up to 80% of the property's worth. Hence in the event of a loss to the building worth $20,000; the insures policyholder would receive :
(Actual contribution/expected contribution) x value of loss to the property
Where : Expected contribution = 80% of property's worth
ie (80/100) x $400,000 = $320,000
then the insured is to receive: ($240,000/$320,000) x $20,000 = $15,000
