solniwko [45]

Answer:

The question is meant to compare the original ROI and RI before the investment compared to the new investment is ROI and RI

The new investment has a lower return on investment of 11% compared to original 14%

However,the project should be considered since it has $3000 residual income in additional to the original residual income

Explanation:

The return on investment and residual income before the new investment are computed thus:

return on investment=operating income/total assets=$64,000/$400,000=16%

residual income=operating income-(total assets*rate of return)

=$64,000-($400,000*11%)=$20,000

Thereafter,the return on investment and residual income on the new investment are computed thus:

return on investment=operating income/total assets=$14,000/$100,000=14%

residual income=operating income-(total assets*rate of return)

=$14,000-($100,000*11%)=$3,000

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

•It avoids confusion if the primary beneficiary on dies first

•It allows for another option if the primary beneficiary cannot inherit it

Secondary beneficiary is important because should the primary beneficiary dies first, he is entitled to the benefits therein inorder to avoid confusion as to who should inherit the deceased's assets. It is also important because it provides other option where the primary beneficiary is not able to inherit the will i.e not found at the time of grantor's death or disclaim inheritance in the will, the secondary beneficiary inherits same and also prevent the will from going into probate i.e allowing it to pass through the court process which is oftentimes time consuming .

Use the expenditure multiplier to calculate the change in AD that would result from a $100 million increase in government spendi

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If MPC is 0.8, Change in GDP = $500 million

If MPC is 0.95, Change in GDP = $2,000 million

Explanation:

<em>Expenditure Multiplier is the amount by which the real GDP will change if autonomous expenditure changes by a given amount.</em>

It is calculated as follows: 1/(1-MPC).

MPC is the portion of additional income that is spent. If the MPC is 0.8, then the expenditure multiplier will be = 1/(1-0.8) = 5

Using the first scenario with an increase in government spending by $100million, the resulting change in GDP would be

Change in GDP = change in autonomous expenditure × Multiplier

= 100 × 5 = $500 million

<em>Scenario 2, MPC of 0.95</em>

Expenditure Multiplier = 1/(1-0.95) = 20

Change in GDP= 100 × 20 = $2000 million
