Answer:
(a) $15
(b) $35
(c) 4
(d) $80
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial deposit = $20 bill
Required reserve ratio = 25%
(a) Money lend out by bank is as follows:
= Amount of deposit - Reserve requirement
= $20 - ($20 × 0.25)
= $20 - $5
= $15
(b) Money in the economy changed:
= Initial deposit + Amount of money lend out by bank
= $20 + $15
= $35
(c) Money multiplier:
= 1/ Required reserve ratio
= 1/ 0.25
= 4
(d) Money will eventually be created by the banking system:
= Change in deposits × Money multiplier
= $20 × 4
= $80
Answer:
- $25.50
- 90,000 units
- 140,000 units
Explanation:
1. Current contribution margin ratio
= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price
= (25 - 19.8) / 25
= 0.208
New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)
= $5.40
New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20
To maintain 0.208
0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price
0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20
0.208Price - Price = -20.20
-0.792Price = -20.20
Price = -20.20/-0.792
Price = $25.50
2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin
Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 25 - 19.8
= $5.20
= 468,000/5.2
= 90,000 units
3. To earn $260,000;
= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin
= (468,000 + 260,000) /5.2
= 140,000 units
Answer:
is not attainable for this nation
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.
Point outside the curve or to the right of the curve means that the production level is not attainable given the level of resources
Points inside the production possibilities curve means that the nations resources are not being fully utilised
Factors that cause the PPF to shift
1. changes in technology.
2. changes in available resources.
3. changes in the labour force.
Answer:
$17,820
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000
Trade discount received = 40%
The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000
= 0.4 × $30,000
= $12,000
Therefore,
Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount
= $30,000 - $12,000
= $18,000
also,
credit terms = 1/10, n/30
since, the payment was made within the discount period
1% of discount will be provided
thus,
amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise
= 0.01 × $18,000
= $180
hence,
Net cost of the merchandise
= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms
= $18,000 - $180
= $17,820
