arsen [322]

Answer:

A. Movement on the PPC

B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC

C. Less Concavity of PPC

Explanation:

Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).

It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.

a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)

b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.

c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.

Margaret [11]

Answer: 1.27

Explanation:

The acid test ratio of a company measure how well a company would be able to pay off its current liabilities using its most liquid current assets (current assets less inventory).

= (Cash + Accounts Receivable) / Current liabilities

= (40,000 + 55,000) / 75,000

= 95,000 / 75,000

= 1.27

Mr. Bailey would like to gift $515,000 (FMV) of appreciated property (basis $200,000) to his son. Mr. Bailey doesn't want to use

Oliga [24]

Answer:

He should set a grantor retained annuity trust (GRAT).

Explanation:

Mr. Bailey would be the grantor that transfers the asset into the GRAT, but retains the right to receive annuity payments for a number of years. The IRS has set a minimum annuity corresponding to the Section 7520 rate, during the last two years the rate has varied from 2-3%. When the trust expires (pays all the annuities), the beneficiary gets the asset tax free.

Since the grantor is giving up an asset but in exchange is receiving an annuity form it, there is no applicable gift tax, it is called a zeroed-out GRAT.

This type of grant makes sense only if the grantor believes that the future value of the asset will be higher than the current value, since the annuity is based on the current value. In this case, Mr. Bailey would receive payments based on a $200,000 value, but the property's fair market value is already higher and should increase as time passes.

At the end of each of the past 14 years, Vanessa deposited $450 in an account that earned 8 percent compounded annually. (a) How

Travka [436]

Answer:

a) = $10,896.71

b) = $11,768.45

Explanation:

The question is divided into 2 parts

Part a) Amount in the account today

The formula to use is as follows:

FV of Annuity= P(1+r)∧n - 1)/r

P= Periodic Payment = $450

r= Rate of each period= 8%

n= the number of periods= 14

The account today is as follows:

FV = 450 x (1+0.08)∧14-1]/0.08

= $10,896.71

Part b) The formula to use is as follows:

FV = Future value = (1+r) * P * [ (1+r)n -1] / r

P= Periodic Payment = $450

r= Rate of each period= 8%

n= the number of periods= 14

= Fv= (1+0.08) * 450 * [ (1+0.08)^14 - 1] / 0.08

= $11,768.45
