Answer:
A. $600
Explanation:
The formula and the computation of the Marginal propensity to consume are shown below:
Marginal propensity to consume = Change in consumer spending ÷ Change in disposal income
0.6 = Change in consumer spending ÷ $1,000
So, the change in consumer spending is
= $1,000 × 0.6
= $600
Hence, the consumption that is given in the question is not considered. Therefore, ignored it
Answer:
NPV = $62,258.56
Explanation:
initial outlay year 0 = $400,000
cash inflow year 1 = $100,000
cash inflow year 2 = $200,000
cash inflow year 3 = $300,000
discount rate = 12%
using a financial calculator, NPV = $62,258.56
if you do it by hand:
NPV = -$400,000 + $100,000/1.12 + $200,000/1.12² + $300,000/1.12³ = -$400,000 + $89,285.71 + $159,438.78 + $213,534.07 = $62,258.56
Answer: consumers find it unfair for firms to increase prices after an increase in demand".
Explanation: Economists established 2 explanations of why companies do not increase their prices even if they can make higher profits.
First it was discovered that some products have the characteristic that the amount of product that a customer wants to buy can depend on the amount of the product that other people are consuming.
And then it was discovered that most people are satisfied that companies raise prices because of an increase in costs, but consider it unfair to raise prices as a result of increased demand.
Explanation:
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Predetermined overhead rate
= Total fixed overhead cost for the year / Budgeted standard direct labor hour
Predetermined overhead rate = $530,400 / 68,000
Predetermined overhead rate
= $7.8 per direct labor hour
2. i. Fixed overhead budget variance
= Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead
= $521,000 - $530,400
= $9,400 favourable
ii Fixed overhead volume variance
= Budgeter fixed overhead - Fixed overhead applied to work in process
= $530,400 - (66,000 × $7.8)
= $530,000 - $514,800
= $15,200 unfavorable
