Answer:
(a) $ 1200
(b) $ 702.5
Explanation:
In the demand and supply curve, the price of goods and services changes with respect to market conditions such as scarcity and consumers' needs. In the problem, if the producers charge about $497.50, the scalper will definitely charge a price higher than that of the producers, in this case, $1200. Thus, this is $702.5 (i.e. $1200 - $497.50) more than the producers' charge.
Answer:
Each should be used as follows:
Weight of peppermints = X = 25 lb
Weight of Chocolates = Y = 15 lb
Explanation:
Suppose
Weight of peppermints = X
Weight of Chocolates = Y
So According to given condition
X + Y = 40 (Eq. 1)
1.2X + 2.4Y = 1.65*40
1.2X + 2.4Y = 66 (Eq. 2)
By multiplying (Eq. 1) with 1.2 we get
1.2X + 1.2Y = 48 (Eq. 3)
Now by subtracting (Eq. 2) from (Eq. 3)
(1.2X + 1.2Y) - (1.2X + 2.4Y) = 48 - 66
1.2X + 1.2Y - 1.2X - 2.4Y = -18
1.2X - 1.2X + 1.2Y - 2.4Y = -18 (Rearrange)
-1.2Y = -18
1.2Y = 18
Y = 18/1.2
Y = 15
By placing value of Y in (Eq. 1)
X + 15 = 40
X = 40 - 15
X = 25
<u>Check</u>
1.2X + 2.4Y = 66
1.2 (25) + 2.4 (15) = 66
66 = 66
Answer:
$3,122.96
Explanation:
Future value = 5000
i = 8%
n = 6
m = 2
Present Value = FV(1+i/m)^mn
Present Value = 5,000(1+0.08/2)^-2*6
Present Value = 5,000(1.04)^-12
Present Value = 5,000 / (1.04)^12
Present Value = 5,000 / 1.6010322
Present Value = 3122.985284118583
Present Value = $3,122.96
Answer:
$100,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given Jorgensen may lessen the amount of $100,000 in the second year which is year 2 reason been that the amount are NOT FIXED amount at the end of the year 1 because the employees are qualified to receive the bonus amount only in a situation where the employees are been employed on the date the bonuses amount were been paid.
Employees Deductible Year 1 Deductible Year 2
Ken $0 $40,000
Jayne $0 $30,000
Jill $0 $20,000
Justin $0 $10,000
Total $100,000
Answer:
A, B and D
Explanation:
Expanding the money supply is an exercise of expansionary monetary policy.
This decision will first allow our tech startup to acquire cheaper loans and expand our operations, this expansion in operations will result in new employment opportunities and hence as a result, unemployment will be reduced assuming this is a general trend in the economy.
This decision also directly reflects an increased investment and hence the GDP on the whole and the investment part of GDP would both increase,
GDP = C + I + G + (X - M), where I = investment.
This change in macro economy will increase aggregate demand due to expansionary effects. Increase in imports is not conclusive as it may or may not happen depending upon the demand state.
Hope this helps.
