Which of the following statements about the consumption component of GDP is not correct?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

D. Spending on services is smaller than the amount of consumption spending on durable and nondurable goods.

Explanation:

For developed countries like the U.S, there is a lot of stress in consumption of services such as good health care, appropriate and quality education and among others. These services contribute to a larger proportion of consumption component of GDP than both durable and nondurable commodities. Therefore, the statement “spending on services is smaller than the amount of consumption spending on durable and non-durable goods” is not correct

The owner of an orange grove must decide when to pick one variety of oranges. She can sell them for $27 a bushel if she sells th

uysha [10]

Answer:

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

Explanation:

We assume that the return of the owner is y ($)

Assume that the number of weeks the oranges should be picked to have maximum return is x (weeks). (x≥0)

If collect now, the price for each bushel is $27

As the price per bushel decrease by $1.50 per bushel each week

=> After x weeks, the price of a bushel decrease: 1.5x ($)

=> The price of 1 bushel after x weeks is: 27 - 1.5x ($)

If collect now, each tree can yield 7 bushels

As the yield increases by half a bushel per week for the next 5 weeks

=> After x weeks with x ≤ 5, each trees would yields: 7 + 0.5x (bushels)

The return = The price of each bushes × The quantity of bushels

=> $y = (27-1.5x)(7+0.5x)$

⇔ $y= 27 (7 +0.5x) - 1.5x(7+0.5x) = 189 + 13.5x - 10.5x - 0.75x^{2}$

⇔ $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

We have: if the equation has the form of $y =ax^{2} +bx +c$ with a≠0, its maximum value is: $max y = c - \frac{b^{2} }{4a}$

In the equation $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$ , we have: a = -0.75; b = 3; c = 189

=> $max y = c -\frac{b^{2} }{4a} = 189 - \frac{3^{2} }{4.(-0.75)} = 189 - \frac{9}{-3} = 189 - (-3) = 189+3 = 192$

To look for the number of weeks, we should find x (0≤x≤5) with which y = 192

$192 = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 3x + 189 - 192 = 0$

⇔ $-0.75 x^{2} + 3x - 3 =0$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 4*0.75x - 0.75*4 =0$

⇔ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = 0$

⇔ $(x-2)^{2} = 0$

⇔ x = 2

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

On July 1, SHady resort borrowed 350,000 cash by signing a 10-year, 8.5 % installment note requiring equal payments each June 30

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$29,750

Explanation:

Since the Annual Payments of $53,343 are all equal for the period of 10 years at 8.5% installment note, therefore we Simple interest formula here to calculate the interest amount;

I = Prt

P = Principal Amount = $350,000

r = Interest Rate = 8.5%

t = time = 10-year

I = Interest = 350,000 x 0.085 x 10 = 297,500

Hence, the first annual payment of interest expense will be:

= 297,500 / 10 = $29,750

Select all that apply. Select other ways to measure the quality of life in a country besides the real GDP per capita.

Nata [24]

GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product. When we refer to Per Capita GDP, this covers the gross income of the country, and this is divided by the number of population in that country. Basing on this definition, I can say that the other ways to measure the quality of life in a country aside from basing from per capita GDP is through Genuine Progress Indicator, and <span>Gross Domestic Product. Hope this helps.</span>

The Gregor family installed a pool in their backyard but refused to put in a fence. While the Gregors were on vacation, a 10-yea

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The family of the boy will most likely sue the Gregors for not putting a fence around the pool in their backyard due to which their child has been injured.

<h3>What is a fence?</h3>

A fence is a structure built outside an area to cover it so that no one can escape or enter that area. It is a kind of a railing or a barrier usually made up of wood, wire, or steel bars.

If the Gregor family has put the fence around the pool in their backyard, then a ten-year-old boy can't able to enter the pool area which ultimately results in no injury to the boy. But the Gregor family has denied putting the fence which makes the ten-year-old injured when he jumps into the pool area.

Therefore, the injured boy's family will sue the Gregor family for not putting a fence around the pool area.
