Increasing the amount of money in the economy results in

Business
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

By increasing the amount of money in the economy, the central bank encourages private consumption. Increasing the money supply also decreases the interest rate, which encourages lending and investment. The increase in consumption and investment leads to a higher aggregate demand.

Explanation:

It is important for policymakers to make credible announcements. If private agents (consumers and firms) believe that policymakers are committed to growing the economy, the agents will anticipate future prices to be higher than they would be otherwise. The private agents will then adjust their long-term plans accordingly, such as by taking out loans to invest in their business. But if the agents believe that the central bank’s actions are short-term, they will not alter their actions and the effect of the expansionary policy will be minimized.

Suppose you are evaluating two mutually exclusive projects, A and B. Project A costs $350 and has cash flows of $250 and $250 in
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The answer is 30%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Project A

Project A costs = $350

Cash flows =$250 and $250 (next 2 years)

Project B

Project B costs =$300

Cash flow = $300 and  $100

Now what is the crossover rate for these projects.

Thus

Year Project A    Project B A-B        B-A

0            -350     -300        -50        50

1             250      300        -50        50

2             250      100         150       -150

IRR         27%      26%         30%      30%

So,

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$-50 = $-50/(1+r)^1 + $150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$50 = $50/(1+r)^1 + $-150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

Hence, the cross over rate for these project is 30%

Note:

IRR =Internal rate of return

CF =Cash flow

r = rate

Solve the problem using 6.2%, up to $128,400 for Social Security tax and using 1.45%, no wage limit, for Medicare tax.
bekas [8.4K]

$3878.55

Explanation:

Step 1 :

It is given that Kristy has a biweekly gross earnings of $1950.

Since it is bi-weekly payments there are 26 payments in the year.

Gross earnings per year = 1950 * 26 = $50,700

Step 2 :

It is given that the social security tax is 6.2% up to $128,400. Kristy's earnings of 50,700$ does not exceed the threshold $128,400, hence 6.2% of her entire income is subject to social security withholding.

Social security withholding = 6.2% of 50,700 = 6.2*50700/100 = $3143.40

Step 3 :

It is given that Medicare tax is 1.45% with no wage limit

Medicare withholding = 1.45% of 50,700 = 1.45*50700/100 = $735.15

Total withholding = Social Security withholding + Medicare withholding 3143.40 + 735.15 = $3878.55

During the month of April, direct labor cost totaled $9,750 and direct labor cost was 30% of prime cost. If total manufacturing
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

manufacturing overhead= $42,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor= $9,750 (30% of prime costs)

Total manufacturing costs= $74,500

<u>First, we need to determine the direct material costs. We know that prime costs are the sum of direct labor and direct material.</u>

Prime costs= direct labor / 0.3

Prime costs= 9,750 /0.3

Prime costs= $32,500

Direct material= 32,500 - 9,750

Direct material= $22,750

<u>Now, we can calculate the manufacturing overhead:</u>

Total manufacturing costs= direct labor + direct material + manufacturing overhead

74,500 = 9,750 + 22,750 + manufacturing overhead

manufacturing overhead= $42,000

How the 4 factors of pruduction fit together land,capital,labor,entreprenurship​
Mrrafil [7]

Explanation:

To understand the basic philosophy behind the four factors of production

Land - Labor - Capital - Entrepreneurship

Lets consider an example:

Someday, just finishing your college, you think of starting a pizza business and you start selling pizza's one day. You might end up making a Pizza brand like Pizza Hut.

Here, in this example, to start your pizza shop, you need a place or area, this is known as Land factor. When you start making pizza, you need someone to work in that shop, (or if you doing it by yourself too) there should be at least some human being doing it, this factor is referred as Labor. To start the pizza shop, you need to buy the equipment, taking a shop on rent, or buying it, renovation of the shop etc. All of these things need, of course, Money, which is referred as Capital here. The idea you going to start this business, the courage to make it, definitely makes you an Entrepreneur, in utilizing all other factors effectively and efficiently. Therefore, this is linkage between these four factors of production, and how they fit together.
