Some countries have had high inflation for a long time. Others have had low or moderate inflation for a long time. Which of the following, at least in theory, could explain why some countries would continue to have high inflation?
a. High inflation countries have relatively small sacrifice ratios and so see no need to reduce inflation.
b. Inflation reduction works best when it is unexpected, and people in high inflation countries would quickly anticipate any change in monetary policy
c. In a country where inflation has been high for a long time, people are likely to have found ways to limit the costs.
d. All of the above are correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. All of the above are correct.

Explanation:

Inflation is a quantitative measure of the rate at which the average price level of a basket of selected goods and services in an economy increases over some period of time. High inflation in a country is a function of the rate at which the goods and services increases. From the options, it shows reasons why some countries would continue to have high inflation.

a) should sell the quantity of output that results in a value for total revenue that is equal to total cost.
b) Should produce the quantity of output that results in the greatest difference between marginal revenue and marginal cost.
c) should produce the quantity of output that results in the greatest difference between total revenue and total cost.
d) shouls sell thw quantity of output determined by the interaction between the indusrey demand and supply.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

Profit is maximised where marginal cost equals marginal revenue.

If we assume that both countries specialize according to their comparative advantage, then how do we find a terms of trade that will cause both entities (i.e. individuals, countries) to be better off?

Answers

Answer:

The best way to find terms of trade that will ensure that two entities are in the best terms of trade will be to look at the opportunity costs of the various products they produce.

A high opportunity cost in one product relative to that of the other entity means the entity with the higher opportunity cost should be trading with the entity with the lower opportunity cost and vice versa.

For example, assume that an entity "A" produces both rice and beans whilst an entity "B" also produces rice and beans too.

If the opportunity cost to A of producing Beans is 300 bags of rice whilst the opportunity cost to B of producing Beans is 120 bags of rice, and the opportunity cost to A of producing rice is 180 bags of beans whilst it is 250 bags of beans to B, the principles of comparative advantage require that A should focus more on producing rice and purchase beans from B whilst B should focus more on producing beans and purchase rice from A.

nco purchased a computer for $200,000 and this machine is expected to generate annual cash flows of $48,271 over the next 5 years. What is the expected rate of return on this investment g

Answers

Answer:

The expected rate of return on this investment is:

21%

Explanation:

Cost of computer = $200,000

Annual cash flows for 5 years = $48,271

Total cash flows = $241,355 ($48,271 x 5)

Returns = $41,355 ($241,355 - $200,000)

The expected rate of return = Returns/Costs * 100

or the average of returns and the average of investments (they yield the same results)

Using the total returns and investment:

= $41,355/$200,000 * 100

= 21%

Using the average returns and investment:

= $8,271/$40,000 * 100

= 21%

Sparky Corporation uses the FIFO method of process costing. The following information is available for February in its Molding Department: Units:
Beginning Inventory: 25,000 units, 100% complete as to materials and 55% complete as to conversion.
Units started and completed: 110,000.
Units completed and transferred out: 135,000.
Ending Inventory: 30,000 units, 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion.
Costs:
Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $43,000.
Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $48,850.
Costs incurred in February - Direct Materials: $287,000.
Costs incurred in February - Conversion: $599,150.
Calculate the equivalent units of conversion.
A) 165,000
B) 130,250
C) 140,000
D) 144,000
E) 110,000

Answers

Answer:

B) 130,250

Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent units of conversion is shown below:

= Opening work in process units × remaining percentage + units started and completed units × completion percentage + ending work in process units × completion percentage

= 25,000 units × 45% + 110,000 × 100% + 30,000 × 30%

= 11,250 + 110,000 + 9,000

= 130,250 units

Hence, the correct option is B.

Preferred stockholders have priority over common stockholders with respect to dividends, because dividends must be paid on preferred stock before they can be paid on common stock. However, preferred and common stockholders normally have equal priority with respect to liquidating proceeds in the event of bankruptcy.A. TrueB. False

Answers

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

Preference Shareholders are entitled to receive their return on capital before the ordinary shareholders when when a company is wound - up or liquidated.

Assuming the preferred stock is cumulative, compute the amount of dividends to preferred stockholders and to common stockholders for 2018 and 2019 if total dividends are $9,000 in 2018 and $45,000 in 2019. Assume no changes in preferred stock and common stock in 2019. (Assume all preferred dividends have been paid prior to 2018. Complete all input boxes. Enter a "O" for zero amounts. For the current year preferred dividend, be sure to enter the calculated dividend on the "current year dividend" line and the paid out dividend on the "total dividend to preferred stockholders" line.) Northern's 2018 dividend would be divided between preferred and common stockholders in this manner: 9000 Total Dividend 2018 Dividend to preferred stockholders: Dividend in arrears Current year dividend Total dividend to preferred stockholders 8800 (9000) Dividend to common stockholders

Answers

Answer:

The first part of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar question. I'm not sure that it is the same, but it can help you understand how to solve it.  

Paid-In Capital:

Preferred Stock—5%, $11 Par Value; 150,000 shares authorized, 20,000 shares issued and outstanding : $220,000

Common Stock—$2 Par Value; 575,000 shares authorized, 380,000 shares issued and outstanding : 760,000

total dividends distributed:

2018: $9,000

2019: $45,000

preferred dividends = $220,000 x 5% = $11,000

Distributed dividends:

2018:

$9,000 in dividends distributed to preferred stockholders, $0.45 per preferred stock.

2019:

$13,000* in dividends distributed to preferred stockholders, $0.65 per preferred stock.

$32,000 in dividends distributed to common stockholders, $0.084 per common stock.

Since preferred dividends are cumulative, if they are not paid off during a certain year, they will have to be paid in the future before any common dividends are distributed.

Given an upward sloping aggregate supply curve, which of the following is most likely to occur if the fed pursues restrictive monetary policy?
a. The equilibrium price level and output will both increase.
b. The equilibrium price level and output will both decrease.
c. The equilibrium price level will decrease but output will stay the same.
d. The equilibrium output will decrease but the price level will stay the same.

Answers

Answer:

b. The equilibrium price level and output will both decrease.

Explanation:

If the Fed decides to use restrictive monetary policy money supply to the economy will be reduced. Instruments for reducing money supply is by using interest rate, open market operations, and reserve ratio.

When money supply is reduced, aggregate demand will reduce (shift to the left) because people will have less money to spend. The real output will also reduce because there is reduced demand for goods and services.

Attached is a diagram illustrating this. Equilibrium price moves from A to B, and output decreases from Y1 to Y2

Which two disadvantages are associated with collaborative business message writing?
It may affect the message's clarity.
It may lead to groupthink.
It doesn't allow for proper work distribution.
It requires teamwork.
It doesn't allow for revision.

Answers

Answer:

It may lead to groupthink.

It may affect the message's clarity.

Explanation:

Collaborative business message writing has to do with when a group of people creates a project or business message together rather than doing it individually.

Groupthink describes when a group sets asides their personal belief to get a consensus within a group and this can lead to bad decisions as members of the group can sidestep problems in order to fit into a group's decisions.

The clarity of the message can be affected because the different members of the group all have different ideas and would try to sacrifice some of their ideas for the group.

During the past year a company had total fixed costs of $700,000. Its product sold for $93 per unit. Variable costs during this time equaled $45 per unit. Next year the company is anticipating a 10% increase in total fixed costs and a $3 per unit decrease in variable costs, but would like to maintain its current selling price per unit. How many units must the company sell next year to earn $1,000,000. (Round answer to complete units.)

Answers

Answer:

The company must sell 34706 units

Explanation:

To calculate the units required to earn a target profit of $1000000 next year, we will use the break even analysis modified for target profit calculation.

The break even in units is calculated by dividing the Total fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit. To calculate the units required for target profit, we add the target profit amount to the fixed cost and divide it by the contribution margin per unit. Thus, the formula is,

Units required for target profit = (Total fixed cost + target profit) / Contribution margin per unit

Where contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

New fixed costs = 700000 + 700000 * 0.1 = 770000

New variable cost = 45 - 3 = 42

New contribution margin per unit = 93 - 42 = $51

Units required for target profit = (770000 + 1000000) / 51

Units required for target profit = 34705.88 rounded off to 34706 units

The risk-free rate of return is 4.2 percent and the market risk premium is 11 percent. What is the expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.8

Answers

Answer:

r = 0.24 or 24%

Explanation:

The expected rate of return or the required rate of return is the minimum return that investors anticipate on a stock based on the systematic risk of that stock as measured by its beta. The CAPM equation can be used to calculate the expected rate of return on a stock. The formula is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on market

r = 0.042  +  1.8  *  0.11

r = 0.24 or 24%

The management of Ro Corporation is investigating automating a process. Old equipment, with a current salvage value of $27,000, would be replaced by a new machine. The new machine would be purchased for $432,000 and would have a 6 year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $149,000 per year in cash operating costs. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to (Ignore income taxes.):

Answers

Answer: 19.01%

Explanation:

The simple rate of return is the Income that came from an investment divided by the cost of the investment.

It is therefore expressed by;

Simple rate of return = Net Income / Initial investment

Initial investment

= Price of new machine - salvage value of old machine

= 432,000 - 27,000

= $405,000

Net Income

= Income - depreciation of new machine

= 149,000 - (432,000/6)

= $77,000

Simple rate of return

= 77,000/405,000

= 19.01%

Answer:

17.82%

Explanation:

As we know that:

Simple Rate Of Return = Net Operating Income / Initial Investment

Here

Initial Investment is $432,000

Net Operating Income = Annual Cost Savings - Annual Depreciation

Here

Annual Cost Savings are $149,000

Annual Depreciation =  $432,000/6 = $72,000

By putting values, we have:

Net Operating Income = $149,000 - $72,000 = $77,000

Now by putting values in the above bold equation:

Net Operating Income = $77,000 / 432,000 = 17.82%

d. a nominal gain, but no real gain, and you paid taxes on the nominal gain.

Answers

Answer:

d. a nominal gain, but no real gain, and you paid taxes on the nominal gain.

Explanation:

Nominal gain: In business, the term "nominal gain" is described as the increase or hike in the price or cost of an asset as per the "federal tax code" and is also denoted as "nominal amount" and is considered as non-adjustable for inflation. However, when a specific product or asset or stock is being sold more than its "actual price" or above its "purchase price" then a gain or profit is noted and hence is taxed.

Which of the following lags associated with fiscal policy are expected to be alleviated by automatic stabilizers such as unemployment benefits?
A. recognition lags
B. implementation lags
C. impact lags
D. Both A and B
E. Both B and C
F. Both A and C

Answers

Answer:

D. Both A and B

Explanation:

Recognition Lags in fiscal policy refers to the time lag a country has in clearly visiting the problems faced, when the policy is formed.

As for example the country government might not be able to recognise the problem of unemployment up to a certain identified amount. with automatic stabilisers the authorities can collect automatic data for this issue, and expected time lag will decrease and become minimal.

Implementation lag occurs when the authorities see the adversity of a problem in economy and implements a fiscal policy but it is not implemented in an effective manner, and the results are thus lagged.

Accordingly, automatic stabilisers will improve such time lag by providing the main areas of the country where the adversity of a problem is maximum.

YTM = {50 + [(1,000 - 850) / 40]} / [(1,000 + 850) / 2] = 53.75 / 925 = 0.0581 x 2 (annual rate) = 0.1162 = 11.62%

Palmer Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in net income after tax of $100,000. The equipment will have an initial cost of $400,000 and have a 7-year life. If the salvage value of the equipment is estimated to be $75,000, what is the accounting rate of return?

Answers

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return =( Net income from investment ÷ Cost of investment ) × 100

Net income from investment = $100,000

Cost of investment = $400,000

Required rate of return = ($100,000 / $400,000 ) × 100

= 0.25 × 100

= 25%

The specification for the weight of a box of cereal is 18.9 oz ± .2 oz. The actual mean and standard deviation from a sample of 200 boxes is 18.70 oz and 0.10 oz, respectively. What are the Cp and Cpk?

Answers

Answer:

Cp = 0.667, Cpk = 0

Explanation:

Given the following :

Specification = 18.9 oz ± .2 oz

Actual mean (m) = 18.70 oz

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.10 oz

Upper specification limit (USL) = (18.9 + 0.2) = 19.1 oz

Lower specification limit (LSL) = (18.9 - 0.2) = 18.7 oz

Cp formula :

(USL - LSL) / 6(sd)

(19.1 - 18.7) / 6(0.1)

Cp = 0.4 / 0.6 = 0.667

Cpk = min(CpU, CpL)

CpU = (USL - m) / 3(sd)

CpU = (19.1 - 18.7) / 3(0.1)

CpU = 0.4 / 0.3 = 1.333

CpL = (m - LSL) / 3(sd)

CpL = (18.7 - 18.7) / 3(0.1)

CpL = 0 / 0.3 = 0

Cpk = min(1.333, 0)

Minimum value is 0, hence Cpk = 0

Brian, Kirk, and Jim established a partnership with equal capital contributions. However, Kirk provided an additional contribution in the form of a loan to the company. Which of the following is true?
A) Brian can withdraw capital advances from the partnership
B) Jim and Brian can prevent Kirk from withdrawing advances from the partnership.
C) Kirk and Brian can prevent Jim from withdrawing advances from the partnership.
D) Jim can withdraw capital advances from the partnership.

Answers

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

In this specific scenario, the term that is true is that Jim and Brian can legally prevent Kirk from withdrawing advances from the partnership. This is because all three of them entered into a partnership with equal contributions meaning that they all own the same percentage of the company and must all agree on things before they are done. Even though Kirk provided an additional contribution, this was a loan which will be paid back eventually but does not give kirk any extra power in the company and must discuss decisions with Brian and Jim before it can be done.

Answers

Answer:

Net operating income= $1,587,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual production rate 38,000 unit per year

Selling Price $80 unit per unit

We will make a contribution margin income statement to determine the gain/loss:

Sales= 38,000*80= 3,040,000

Total variable cost= (1,200,000 + 53,000)= (1,253,000)

Contribution margin= 1,787,000

Total fixed costs= (200,000)

Net operating income= 1,587,000

Answers

Answer:

The total period cost is $105000.

Explanation:

Total period costs (TPC) = Fixed manufacturing overhead (FMO) + (Variable selling and administrative expenses × units sold)  +  Fixed selling and administrative expenses.

Now insert all the values in the above formula.

Total period costs = $25,000 + ($6 × 10,000) + $20,000

Total period costs = $25,000 + $60,000 + $20,000

therefore, the Total period costs = $105,000
