Higher credit ratings are associated with more
trust. This means that higher credit ratings are
also associated with what?
A. lower inflation rates
B. lower interest rates
C. lower unemployment rates

Answers

Answer: B. lower interest rates

Explanation:

A higher credit rating means that the person can be more trusted not to default on their payment. As a result, the person can be said to be less risky to borrow to.

This would lead to a lower interest rate because a significant portion of interest rate is based on risk. The risk that a person might not pay back a loan adds to the interest rate charged so if this risk is low, the interest rate will be low.

C) demand curve would shift to the left.
D) supply curve would shift to the left.

Answers

Answer:

A) The correct answer is B. The per unit cost of production in this economy is $0.10.

B) The correct answer is B. The per unit cost of production will rise by about 30 percent.

C) The correct answer is B. The demand curve would shift to the right.

Explanation:

Since an economy is employing 2 units of capital, 5 units of raw materials, and 8 units of labor to produce its total output of 640 units, and each unit of capital costs $ 10, each unit of raw materials, $ 4, and each unit of labor, $ 3, to determine the per unit cost of production in this economy, the per unit cost of production if the per unit price of raw materials rises from $ 4 to $ 8 and all else remains constant, and to determine how the demand or aggregate supply curve will respond, the following calculations must be made:

A) 2 x 10 + 5 x 4 + 8 x 3 = 20 + 20 + 24 = 64

64 / 640 = 0.10

B) 2 x 10 + 5 x 8 + 8 x 3 = 20 + 40 + 24 = 84

64 = 100

84 = X

84 x 100 / 64 = X

8400 / 64 = X

131.25 = X

The accounting equation holds as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity = $102,000

Explanation:

Note: This question not complete as the requirement is omitted. The requirement is therefore provided to complete the question before answering the question as follows:

Required:

Record the preceding transactions in the horizontal statements model. Also, in the Cash Flows column, classify the cash flows as operating activities (OA), investing activities (IA), or financing activities (FA).

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Note: See the attached excel file for the the horizontal statements in which the transactions are recorded.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Assets = Cash + Land = $49,000 + $53,000 = $102,000  

Liabilities = Notes Payable = $30,000

Shareholders' Equity = Common Stock + Retained Earnings = $50,000 + $22,000 = $72,000

Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity = $30,000 + $72,000 = $102,000

Therefore, the accounting equation holds as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity = $102,000

Also note that no figure is recorded for "Determined that the market value of the land is $75,000" because it does affect the horizontal statement since an asset must be recorded at the historical cost.

In 2020, Courtney, 16 and a dependent of her mother, had earned income of $4,000 and interest income (unearned) of $9,500. What is Courtney's federal income tax liability (before credits)? Courtney's mother is in the 35% marginal tax bracket.

Answers

Answer:

The Tax Liability is $1,400

Explanation:

Income is only taxable when it is earned. Any unearned income is not taxable

As unearned income is not taxable then there will be no tax on the unearned interest income of $9,500.

The only taxable income is earned income of $4,000

Use the following formula to calculate the tax liability

Tax liability = Taxable income x Tax rate

Where

Taxable income = $4,000

Tax rate = 35%

Placing values in the formula

Tax liability = $4,000 x 35%

Tax liability = $1,400

Vicki just opened her new cupcake store. She knew from conducting online research what the most popular cupcake was and planned her menu accordingly. When she opened her doors there was a small trickle of steady customers for a month, but not the anticipated flood she was hoping for. What mistake did Vicki make

Answers

Answer: She failed to research on the general demand for cupcakes.

Explanation:

Vicki did a good thing checking what types of cupcakes were in demand and then planning her menu accordingly but she should have checked for cupcakes demand in general. From the looks of this, it would seem that cupcakes were just not as popular as they used to be so regardless of the type of cupcakes sold, Vicki will not see a huge demand.

This is like oil companies discovering a way to make gasoline cleaner but it still wouldn't sell as much because less people are using gasoline in general.

The mistake that Vicki made was relying solely on online research to determine the most popular cupcake without conducting thorough market research or validating the demand in her specific location.

While online research can provide valuable insights, it may not accurately reflect the preferences and tastes of the local market.

By not conducting thorough market research, Vicki failed to assess the specific needs, preferences, and demographics of the local customer base.

This could have led to a mismatch between her menu offerings and the actual demand in her area. As a result, she experienced a lower than anticipated customer turnout.
