This question is a bit tricky to answer because it does not state how often interest rate is applied so lets say for the simple 5% interest rate the rate of interest was calculated after 2 years you would pay a total interest of $15 since interest was only calculated once but for the 3% calculating every year with compound it would be a total of 18.27 dollars in interest but then you would have to calculate the 5% simple interest the same way which would total to $30 if calculated once a year being more than the 3% compound. But lets say interest is calculated once a month your total for the 5% simple interest would be $360 dollars interest for those 2 years and the 3% compound would be $406.97 dollars in interest. So over all the less amount of times interest compounds the less interest there is making it more worth than the simple but if the compounding occurs more frequently the simple 5% interest is more worth it. In this situation I think it might just be yearly interest which makes the 3% compound more worth taking for this short amount of time.
Answer:
Cost of Goods Sold = $ 400,000
Explanation:
Units Sold = $360,000/ $225= 1600
Sales $360,000
Direct materials $176,000
Direct labor $100,000
Variable factory overhead $44,000
Fixed factory overhead $80,000
Total Manufacturing Costs $ 400,000
Variable selling and administrative expenses $20,000
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $10,000
Cost of Goods Sold = $ 400,000
As ending Inventory Finished Goods is 400 units it is not included in the Cost of Goods Sold.
Answer:
This implies that bus is an inferior good and car is a normal good.
Explanation:
Initially, Jim's income was $5000 a year.
As his income increases to $60,000 a year, he decides to buy a car instead of using the bus.
In other words, with the increase in income, the demand for traveling by bus is declining.
This implies that it is an inferior good.
The demand for the car is increasing with an increase in income.
So, the car is a normal good.
An inferior good can be defined as a product that shows negative elasticity. This means with an increase in income its demand declines an vice versa.
A normal good can be defined as a product that shows positive income elasticity. That is, its demand increases with rise in income and vice versa.
The government is an consumer because they trade with other countries to get goods that their country need and they are also a producer because they produce strategies for their government to make our communities around the world more better and advanced.
