Suppose your school is considering whether to spend $20 million building a new state- of-the-art recreation facility. All of the

students agree that the existing facility is in disrepair and that a new facility would be much nicer. Despite this, however, when students are asked to vote on whether they would like the school to build the new recreation facility, over 78% vote no. Why might such a large fraction of students vote no even though they all agree that a new recreation facility would be much nicer than the existing one?

Based on economic theory, a large number of students would be voting no due to the fact that they would prefer that the amount was spent in a different way.

<h3>What is the theory of opportunity cost?</h3>

This is the theory that states that a person would have to forgo benefits that they would have enjoyed from an option given that they chose another option.

Most of these students voted no due to the fact that they have considered a different option that the money could have been spent on.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

MRPL= $200 = wage rate when there are 5 workers

and MRPL = $1,200 = wage rate when there are 2 workers.

Explanation:

The computation of unionized is shown below:-

Marginal revenue product of labor = Marginal product × Price per unit

Workers   Total Production    Marginal Product     MRPL

                   (per day)

a                    b                        b × $8

0                   0

1                   200                         200                      $1,600

2                   350                          150                      $1,200

                                               (350 - 200)

3                   450                           100                    $800

                                               (450 - 350)

4                   500                          50                        $40

                                               (500 - 450)

5                   525                           25                       $200

                                               (525 - 500)

6                    510                         -15                        -$120

                                               (510 - 525)

From the above table MRPL = $200 = wage rate when there are 5 workers

and MRPL = $1,200 = wage rate when there are 2 workers.

If the Federal Reserve lowers the target federal funds rate, Group of answer choices the discount rate rises liquidity in the ba
navik [9.2K]

Answer: Liquidity in the banking system is increased

Explanation:

The Federal Funds rate is the interest rate at which commercial banks are allowed to lend each other their excess reserves overnight to meet reserve requirements.

If this rate were to be reduced, it would make lending cheaper between banks who would then take advantage of this to borrow more occasionally. This will then translate to a higher liquidity amongst the banks.

Company A has a shorter Average Collection Period than Company B using the formula 365 / (Credit Sales / Average AR Balance). Wh
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Statement B is correct

Explanation:

Provided Information that,

Company A has shorter Average Collection Period than Company B,

Average Collection Period refers to the period in which the cash is collected from debtors.

Thus in the given statements only statement B states that Company A is more efficient in collecting receivables from debtors, thus it is the correct statement.

Statement A is wrong as Company A has less Average Collection Period, thus it's credit sales percentage would be higher than Company B.

Statement C which states about generating revenue is not correct as the company might have cash sales.

Statement B is correct

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years,
shtirl [24]

Answer:

e)  $37.05

Explanation:

Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.

So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula

P = D (1+g)/r-g

r- rate of return, g = growth rate

Present value of the future dividends:

PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)

                     = 1.4047

PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)

                     =  1.27

PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)

Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)

=43.114

Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

  =43.114 × (1.12^(-2))

   = 34.37

Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37

                                       = $37.05

Note

To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0

Improved technology brought improved quality of MP3 players, which meant that more people were interested in buying them. MP3 players are far more convenient than CD players, because they are smaller, more easily portable, and overall better.
