What is the typical relationship between time and interest rate?

lilavasa [31]

The answer is they seem to go together, since as time passes, the higher the interest rates grow or vice versa, while time passes interest rates may fall as well, but commonly, as time passes, so does interest rates rise. This reactions may be seen in huge companies or organizations that have invested huge amounts of money that have grown overtime

________ involves defining the firm's marketing mix variables so that target customers have a clear, distinctive, desirable unde

ivann1987 [24]

Answer: Positioning

Explanation: Positioning is a marketing strategy which is aimed at defining a brand's quality and offering in a distinctive manner. Positioning is used to set the boundary and establish the differences in the offerings and services by a firm which sets it apart from that offered by competing firms producing similar products or rendering similar services. Positioning defines the stand of a company's product or services in relation to that it's competitors by stating unique offerings of the firm's product. Therefore, giving customers a distinctive knowledge or understanding of the product from that of its competitors.

Suppose that output (Y ) in an economy is given by the following aggregate production function: Yt = Kt + Nt where Kt is capital

shusha [124]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Yt = Kt + Nt

Taking output per worker, we divide by Nt

Yt/Nt = Kt/Nt + 1

yt = kt + 1

where yt is output per worker and kt is capital per worker.

a) With population being constant, savings rate s and depreciation rate δ.

ΔKt = It - δKt

dividing by Nt, we get

ΔKt/Nt = It/Nt - δKt/Nt ..... [1]

for kt = Kt/Nt, taking derivative

d(kt)/dt = d(Kt/Nt)/dt ... since Nt is a constant, we have

d(kt)/dt = d(Kt/Nt)/dt = (dKt/dt)/Nt = ΔKt/Nt = It/Nt - δKt/Nt = it - δkt

thus, Capital accumulation Δkt = i – δkt

In steady state, Δkt = 0

That is I – δkt = 0

S = I means that I = s.yt

Thus, s.yt – δkt = 0

Then kt* = s/δ(yt) = s(kt+1)/(δ )

kt*= skt/(δ) + s/(δ)

kt* - skt*/(δ) = s/(δ)

kt*(1- s/(δ) = s/(δ)

kt*((δ - s)/(δ) = s/(δ)

kt*(δ-s)) = s

kt* = s/(δ -s)

capital per worker is given by kt*

b) with population growth rate of n,

d(kt)/dt = d(Kt/Nt)/dt =

= $\frac{\frac{dKt}{dt}Nt - \frac{dNt}{dt}Kt}{N^{2}t}$

= $\frac{dKt/dt}{Nt} - \frac{dNt/dt}{Nt}.\frac{Kt}{Nt}$

= ΔKt/Nt - n.kt

because (dNt/dt)/Nt = growth rate of population = n and Kt/Nt = kt (capital per worker)

so, d(kt)/dt = ΔKt/Nt - n.kt

Δkt = ΔKt/Nt - n.kt = It/Nt - δKt/Nt - n.kt ......(from [1])

Δkt = it - δkt - n.kt

at steady state Δkt = it - δkt - n.kt = 0

s.yt - (δ + n)kt = 0........... since it = s.yt

kt* = s.yt/(δ + n) =s(kt+1)/(δ + n)

kt*= skt/(δ + n) + s/(δ + n)

kt* - skt*/(δ + n) = s/(δ + n)

kt*(1- s/(δ + n)) = s/(δ + n)

kt*((δ + n - s)/(δ + n)) = s/(δ + n)

kt*(δ + n -s)) = s

kt* = s/(δ + n -s)

.... is the steady state level of capital per worker with population growth rate of n.

3. a) capital per worker. in steady state Δkt = 0 therefore, growth rate of kt is zero

b) output per worker, yt = kt + 1

g(yt) = g(kt) = 0

since capital per worker is not growing, output per worker also does not grow.

c)capital.

kt* = s/(δ + n -s)

Kt*/Nt = s/(δ + n -s)

Kt* = sNt/(δ + n -s)

taking derivative with respect to t.

d(Kt*)/dt = s/(δ + n -s). dNt/dt

(dNt/dt)/N =n (population growth rate)

so dNt/dt = n.Nt

d(Kt*)/dt = s/(δ + n -s).n.Nt

dividing by Kt*

(d(Kt*)/dt)/Kt* = s/(δ + n -s).n.Nt/Kt* = sn/(δ + n -s). (Nt/Kt)

$\frac{sn}{\delta +n-s}.\frac{Nt}{Kt}$

using K/N = k

$\frac{s}{\delta +n-s}.\frac{n}{kt}$

plugging the value of kt*

$\frac{sn}{\delta +n-s}.\frac{(\delta + n -s)}{s}$

n

thus, Capital K grows at rate n

d) Yt = Kt + Nt

dYt/dt = dKt/dt + dNt/dt = s/(δ + n -s).n.Nt + n.Nt

using d(Kt*)/dt = s/(δ + n -s).n.Nt from previous part and that (dNt/dt)/N =n

dYt/dt = n.Nt(s/(δ + n -s) + 1) = n.Nt(s+ δ + n -s)/(δ + n -s) = n.Nt((δ + n)/(δ + n -s)

dYt/dt = n.Nt((δ + n)/(δ + n -s)

dividing by Yt

g(Yt) = n.(δ + n)/(δ + n -s).Nt/Yt

since Yt/Nt = yt

g(Yt) = n.(δ + n)/(δ + n -s) (1/yt)

at kt* = s/(δ + n -s), yt* = kt* + 1

so yt* = s/(δ + n -s) + 1 = (s + δ + n -s)/(δ + n -s) = (δ + n)/(δ + n -s)

thus, g(Yt) = n.(δ + n)/(δ + n -s) (1/yt) = n.(δ + n)/(δ + n -s) ((δ + n -s)/(δ + n)) = n

therefore, in steady state Yt grows at rate n.

On April 1, Garcia Publishing Company received $32,580 from Otisco, Inc. for 36-month subscriptions to several different magazin

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.

Explanation:

The $32,580 are for 36 months so the amount per month would need to be calculated.

= 32,580/36

= $905

The subscriptions were paid on the 1st of April which means that only 9 months (April to December) of the first year will have revenue recognized for them.

= 905 * 9

= $8,145

Correct entry would be to debit the Unearned fees account as it is a liability that needs to reduce to reflect that fees have now been recognized.

Credit the Fees Earned account to recognize revenue.

Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.
