Answer:

C. A possible cause of economic fluctuations is due to the use of fiscal policy for political purposes.

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>During political business cycles the ups and downs of the economy are best explained through analyzing public policy. In a political business cycle we should expect that there will be some manipulations when using policy to try to make the politicians appear more competent than they are. In 1972, the Nixon administration basically increased the Social Security payments made to Seniors by 20%, 1972, was of course an election year, so the Nixon administration manipulated economic fluctuations due to his fiscal policy.</em>

A July sales forecast projects that 5,000 units are going to be sold at a price of $12.50 per unit. The management forecasts 2%

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$P_i = 5000 units *12.5\frac{dollars}{unit} = 62500 dollars$

And for the new case we know that the sales increase by a factor of 2%, so then we can find the new number of sales like this:

$1.02*5000 units= 5100 units$

And the Total August sales would be given by:

$P_f = 5100 units *12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}= 63750 dollars$

And the correct answer for this case would be:

$63,750

Explanation:

For this case the original number of sales for this case is 5000 units and the unitary price is given by $12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}$

And the total sales for the original case would be given by:

$P_i = 5000 units *12.5\frac{dollars}{unit} = 62500 dollars$

And for the new case we know that the sales increase by a factor of 2%, so then we can find the new number of sales like this:

$1.02*5000 units= 5100 units$

And the Total August sales would be given by:

$P_f = 5100 units *12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}= 63750 dollars$

And the correct answer for this case would be:

$63,750

An investment counselor calls with a hot stock tip. He believes that if the economy remains strong, the investment will result

mixer [17]

Answer:

6,000

Explanation:

The expected value from this investment can be calculated by possible values for random variables by multiplying them by their probability

DATA

Strong = 30,000 , probability = 30%

Moderate = 10,000 , probability = 60%

Weak = -30,000 , probability = 10%

Calculation

Expected profit = Values x Probability

Expected profit = (30,000 x 30%) + (10,000 x 60%) + ( 30,000 x 10%)

Expected profit = 6,000 + 6,000 -6,000

Expected profit = 6,000

Texas Corporation is undergoing a complete liquidation and distributes land to Robert, one of its shareholders, in exchange fo

Oxana [17]

Answer:

Loss to be recognized is $25000

Explanation:

Liquidation refers to a process whereby a company's operation come to an end, which leads to distribution of assets and liabilities to the claimants and winding up the business.

A company may be forced to liquidate owing to consistent losses. In such cases, the claims of all the stakeholders cannot be satisfied and they receive pro-rata basis allocation which covers everybody's claim to an extent, if not fully.

In the given case,

Robert's receipt is Land. Liabilities attached to the land being $325,000 while the land has fair market value of $400,000.

Thus, after assuming the liability, Robert's actual realized amount is,

$400,000 - $325,000 = $75,000

Since, the land was received in consideration for discharge of Robert's own share in company amounting to $100,000.

Thus, Gain/Loss to be recognized by Robert = $75, 000 (receipts) - $100,000

= - $25,000

i.e Robert should recognize a loss of $25,000.
