A decrease in aggregate demand causes the price level to fall. If the government takes no action to
counter this, then the actual price level will be below the price level that people expected.
Individuals will eventually correct their expectations of the price level. As they do so, prices and
wages will adjust accordingly, shifting the aggregate supply curve to the right (down). For example
if wages are sticky, in light of the lower price level, firms and workers will eventually make bargains
for lower nominal wages. The reduction in wages lowers costs of production, so firms are willing to
Answer:

CaCO3+2HCl(aq)-> CaCl2(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)
Answer:
Grew by 2%
Explanation:
Given: nominal GDP =12% positive value cause it grew by 12% during these years.
Population grew by 4%
GDP deflator = 6% positive value cause it also grew by 6%
Question says we must find real GDP per person for the 4 year term that the president has served for so we will use the formula to calculate GDP Deflator to actually solve for Real GDP as we know the formula is GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP per person%)/(Real GDP per person%)x100
So we already have the nominal GDP and the GDP deflator therefore we substitute to the above formula:
6% = (12%)/ (Real GDP per person percentage) x100, and now we solve for Real GDP per person%
Therefore we multiply both sides with Real GDP percentage and get:
Real GDP per person %( 6%) = 12% and then we divide both sides with 6%,
Therefore Real GDP is 2% so we also see that real GDP has actual grown by 2% because the GDP deflator grew instead of decreasing where nominal GDP is also positive so if we have a fraction where an answer is positive we know both fraction values must be positive pus if the GDP deflator increases both nominal and Real GDP increase and that’s the relationship they have.
Answer:
Total cost= $385,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Assembly Department budgeted direct labor of $110,000, direct materials of $170,000, and fixed factory overhead of $28,000 for 8,000 hours of production.
First, we need to calculate the unitary hourly rate for the department:
Total cost= 110,000 + 170,000 + 28,000= 308,000
Hourly cost= 308,000/8,000= $38.5
Now, for 10,000 hours:
Total cost= 38.5*10,000= $385,000
Answer:
0.1333
Explanation:
Given that,
Selling price = $5
Variable cost = $3
Annual sales = $20,000
Total sales = $60,000
Contribution margin:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= $5 - $3
= $2
Number of units sold:
= Annual sales ÷ Selling price
= $20,000 ÷ $5
= 4,000 units
Total contribution sales:
= Number of units sold × Contribution margin per unit
= 4,000 units × $2
= $8,000
Weighted contribution:
= Total contribution sales ÷ Total sales
= $8,000 ÷ $60,000
= 0.1333
