Consider an economy described by the following equations:

Y=C+I+G
C=120+0.8×(Y−T)
I=500−50×r G=150
T=125

where Y is GDP, C is consumption, I is investment, G is government purchases, T is taxes, and r is the interest rate. If the economy were at full employment (that is, at the natural rate of output), GDP would be $2,850.

Identify the equation(s) each of the following statements describes.

a. It is a function of disposable income.
b. It depends on the interest rate.

The marginal propensity to consume in this economy is:____________ .

Suppose the central bank's policy is to adjust the money supply to maintain the interest rate at 3%, so r = 3. When the interest rate is 3%, GDP is __________$ .

GDP at an interest rate of 3% is the full-employment level.
a. True
b. False

Assuming no change in monetary policy, (a decrease, an increase) in government purchases by ____ would restore GDP to the full-employment level. (Note: Assume that such change in fiscal policy has no crowding-out effect.) Assuming no change in fiscal policy, (a decrease. an increase) in the interest rate by ___ would restore GDP to the full-employment level.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Consumption c is a function of disposable income

Investment I is a function of interest rate

Marginal propensity to consume equals 0.8

If this 3, I = investment

= 500-(3*50)

= 500-150

= 350

We have Y= C+I+G

Y = 120+0.8(Y-125)+350+150

Y = 120+0.8Y-100+350+150

Y-0.8Y = 120-100+350+150

0.2Y = 520

Y = 520/0.2

Y = 2600

GDP and interest rate falls below full employment

If there is no change in monetary policy an increase in government purchases by 50dollars takes gdp back to full employment

If no change in fiscal policy when interest rate decreases by 1.4% God goes back to full employment.

What cycle time (in minutes) would match capacity and demand if demand is 100 units per day, there are two 8 hour shifts with 3 worker(s) each, and each worker gets two 18 minute breaks and one 40 lunch.

Answers

Answer:

24.24 minutes

Explanation:

The computation of the cycle time is shown below:

As we know that

Cycle time is

= Time ÷ quantity demanded

where,

Time is

= Total time - break time

= (no of workers × no of shifts × hours per shift) - (no of workers × no of shifts × 2 × short shifts + lunch break)

= (3 × 2 × 8 × 60 minutes) - (3 ×2 × (2 × 18) + 40)

= 2,880  - 456

= 2,424 minutes

And, the demand is 100

Now the cycle time is

= 2,424 ÷ 100

= 24.24 minutes

Daryl Kirby opened Squid Realty Co. on January 1, 2015. At the end of the first year, the business needed additional capital. On behalf of Squid Realty Co., Daryl applied to Ocean National Bank for a loan of $375,000. Based on Squid Realty Co.'s financial statements, which had been prepared on a cash basis, the Ocean National Bank loan officer rejected loan as too risky. After receiving the rejecting notice, Daryl instructed his accountant to prepare the financial statement on an accrual basis. These statements included $65,000 in accounts receivable and $85,000 in accounts payable. Daryl then instructed his accountant to record an additional $30,000 of accounts receivable for commissions on property for which a contract had been signed on December 28, 2015. The title to the property is to transfer on January 5, 2016, when an attorney formally records the transfer of the property to the buyer. Daryl then applied for a $375,000 loan from Free Spirit Bank, using the revised financial statements. On this application, Daryl indicated that he had not previously been rejected for credit.

Required:
Discuss the ethical and professional conduct of Daryl Kirby in applying for the loan from Free Spirit Bank.

Answers

Answer:

There are issues with Revenue recognition, Accrual basis of accounting and Cash basis of accounting.

Explanation:

The ethical issues are important to handle with care in business. The accountant has used accrual basis accounting technique in order to apply for a loan. The revised financial statements are prepared with accrual concept so that the company is successful in procuring loan. The revenue should be recognized when performance obligation is completed and the required services are rendered. The accrual concept states that the transaction should be recorded when it occurs regardless when the cash is actually received. Daryl has been involved in unethical practice as he has instructed his accountant to prepare revised financial statements to portray that the company's performance is good. It is an intention to deceive bank in order to procure loan.

Dale takes out a loan of $8,000 with a 15.2% interest rate that is compounded semi-annually.
If he pays off the loan in 3 years, how much will he end up paying?
Round your answer to the nearest cent.
DO NOT round until you have calculated the final answer.

Answers

Answer:

$12,415.48

Explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest is

FV = PV × (1+r)^ n.

For Dale , FV = the amount he will pay?

PV = $8,000

r = 15.2%

n =3 years

Since interest is compounded semi-annually, the applicable r will be 15.2% divided by 2, n will be 3 years x 2

Fv= $8,000 x ( 1 + {15.2 %/ 2}^6

Fv = $8,000 x (1+ 7.6/100) ^ 6

Fv= $8,000 x ( 1.076) ^6

Fv = $8000 x 1.551934858492184

Fv=$12,415.482

Fv= $12,415.48

Dale will end up paying $12,415.48

Answer: 12,415.48

Explanation:

Use the compund interest formula for calculating the future value, A=P(1+rn)n⋅t where A is the unknown future value, P is the principal, so P=$8,000, r is the rate written as a decimal, so r=0.152, n is the number of periods of compounding which is 2 when compounded semi-annually,so n=2, and t is the time in years, so t=3. Substitute the values into the formula.

Use the compound interest formula and substitute the given values: A=$8,000(1+0.1522)2(3). Simplify using the order of operations: A=$8,000(1.076)6=$8,000(1.551935358)≈$12,415.48.

The Board acknowledges your analysis and agrees with your conclusion. They are now curious about how Charles Schwab can use strategies of a mature industry to increase its revenue. You present them two options. One is to implement a product proliferation strategy to establish a presence in the niches that the new entrants are targeting. This strategy has proven to be very successful in the past and can be a very timely advantage. Another plausible strategy is product development to enhance current products. Research shows that the current product line is still fresh in the consumers’ eyes. Which is the wiser choice?

Answers

Explanation:

Analyzing the two strategies, the wisest choice would be the product proliferation strategy to establish a presence in the niches that the new competitors are aiming for.

This strategy consists of increasing a company's product mix, in order to increase its positioning in the market through the conquest of new market shares, which consists in the increase of consumers and a greater competitiveness for the company in entering new niches.

The other product development strategy to improve current products may not be a good strategy at the moment, as we have information that the current product is still fresh in the eyes of consumers, so the product is growing, which means that consumers already know the product and there are growth rates in the purchase and repurchase of the product.

Kingbird Windows manufactures and sells custom storm windows for three-season porches. Kingbird also provides installation service for the windows The installation process does not involve changes in the windows, so this service can be performed by other vendors. Kingbird enters into the following contract on July 1, 2017, with a local homeowner.
The customer purchases windows for a price of $2,470 and chooses Kingbird to do the installation. Kingbird charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The installation service is estimated to have a standalone selling price of $580. The customer pays Kingbird $1,940 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,050) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows. The windows are delivered on September 1, 2017, Kingbird completes installation on October 15, 2017, and the customer pays the balance due.

Suppose there is a policy debate over whether the United States should impose trade restrictions on imported ball bearings:________.
Domestic producers of ball bearings send a lobbyist to the U.S. government to request that the government impose trade restrictions on imports of ball bearings. The lobbyist claims that the U.S. ball-bearing industry is new and cannot currently compete with foreign firms. However, if trade restrictions were temporarily imposed on ball bearings, the domestic ball-bearing industry could mature and adjust and would eventually be able to compete in the world market.
Which of the following justifications is the lobbyist using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings?
A. Infant-industry argument
B. Saving-domestic-jobs argument
C. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-chip argument
D. National-security argument
E. Unfair-competition argument

Answers

Answer:

A)Infant-industry argument

Explanation:

We are informed about a Supposed policy debate over whether the United States should impose trade restrictions on imported ball bearings. Whereby

Domestic producers of ball bearings send a lobbyist to the U.S. government to request that the government impose trade restrictions on imports of ball bearings.

In the case whereby, The lobbyist claims that the U.S. ball-bearing industry is new and cannot currently compete with foreign firms, the justifications the lobbyist was using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings is Infant-industry argument.

Infant-industry argument can be regarded as an economic rationale that provides protection for new industries that are yet to reach a certain economic scale like the existing industries, this theory offer protection to this new/developing industry from some form pressure as well as their products that can emerge from compitition from other mature industries.

Answers

Answer:

The geometric average return for the period 2.60%.

Explanation:

Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

Also note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the return for each year.

In the attached excel file, return is calculated using the following formula:

Return = (Current year price - Previous year price) / Previous year price

The formula for calculating the geometric average return is given as follows:

Geometric average return = [(1 + R1)(1 + R2)(1 + R3)...(1 + Rn)]^(1/n) – 1 ……….. (1)

Where;

Ri = Return over the years I, where i = 1, 2, 3, …. n

n = number of years = 3

R1 = 2012 return = 0.10

R2 = 2013 return = -0.0727272727272727

R3 = 0.0588235294117647

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Geometric average return = ((1 + 0.10)(1 - 0.0727272727272727)(1 + 0.0588235294117647))^(1/3) – 1

Geometric average return = (1.10 * 0.927272727272727 * 1.0588235294117647)^(1/3) – 1

Geometric average return = 1.07999999999999^0.333333333333333 - 1

Geometric average return = 1.02598556800602 - 1

Geometric average return = 0.02598556800602 = 0.0260, or 2.60%

Therefore, the geometric average return for the period 2.60%.

For some companies, to which the firm offers its services, there are no competitors also seeking their business, so Rosa's company is almost certain to get these companies as clients. For these jobs, Rosa finds that her cost estimates are right, on average. For jobs where competitors are also vying for the business, Rosa finds that they almost always end up costing more than she estimates.

a. True
b. False

2. Rosa is less likely to win the jobs where she underestimates the costs, causing her to experience the winner's curse.

a. False
b. True

Answers

Answer:

1) a. True

Rosa is almost always right when she knows that her company is a monopoly, i.e. has no competition, but is generally wrong when her company has to compete with other contractors. It is simple, a monopolist can decide which markup percentage to use, and can use a really high one, but when competition exists, markups are not so high and profits not so abundant. That is why she almost always gets it wrong when having to deal with other competitors.

2) a. False

The winner's curse usually happens when someone wins a bid over some contract or asset, but then they realize that the actual price of the contract or asset was lower than the bid. E.g. in an auction, two people are fighting over to see who buys an antique car which increases the price of the car way beyond the real market value. But it can also happen to a company that offers very low prices, and then after they won a contract, cannot perform properly because their actual costs are higher.

When a company makes an offer, they are certain about the price of the contract and they should know the value of the services or goods that they are offering. If Rosa underestimates her costs, and prepares her offer using unrealistically low costs, then she will probably win the bid but end up losing money.

Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bars and the price is $2. In year 2, the quantity produced is 5 bars and the price is $4. In year 3, the quantity produced is 7 bars and the price is $6.

Required:
Using year 1 as the base year, compute nominal GDP, real GDP, and the GDP deflator for each year.

Answers

Answer:

Nominal GDP in year 1 = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 =  $42

Real GDP in year 1 = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 =  $14

GDP deflator in year 1 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = 300

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP = quantity produced x current year price

Nominal GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = 5 x $4 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 = 7 x $6 = $42

Real GDP = quantity produced x base year price

Real GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = 5 x $2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 = 7 x $2 = $14

GDP deflator = nominal GDP / Real GDP x 100

GDP deflator in year 1 = $6 / $6 x 100 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = $20 / $10 x 100= 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = $42 / 14 x 100 = 300

Suppose that, in a competitive market without government regulations, the equilibrium price of milk is $2.50 per gallon, and employees at grocery stores earn $21.50 per hour. Indicate the following whether each of the statements is an example of a price ceiling or a price floor and whether it results in a shortage or a surplus or has no effect on the price and quantity that prevail in the market.

a. There are many teenagers who would like to work at grocery stores, but the minimum-wage law sets the hourly wage at $25.00.
b. The government has instituted a legal minimum price of $2.30 per gallon for milk.
c. The government prohibits grocery stores from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon.

Answers

Explanation:

at price ceiling we have price set at a maximum level. it cannot be raised beyond this level. At binding price ceiling, price would be set to be lower than what is the equilibrium price level.  a non binding price ceiling is set to be higher than equilibrium level.

At price floor, price is set to a particular minimum level.  It cannot fall lower than this. At binding price floor, price is higher than equilibrium price' at non binding price floor, it is set to be lower than equilibrium price level.

this expalnation should help us to answer this question.

(a) Many teenagers would like to work but minimum wage is set at 25.00 we have Price floor, Binding

(b) Government instituted legal minimum price of a gallon of milk at $2.30 we have Price floor, Non-binding

(c) if the Government prohibits from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon then we have Price ceiling, Binding

A company has the following aging schedule of its accounts receivable with the estimated percent uncollectible:______.
Age Group Amount Receivable Estimated Percent Uncollectible
Not yet due $ 175,000 4 %
0-60 days past due $ 40,000 10 %
61-120 days past due $ 10,000 30 %
More than 120 days past due $ 5,000 60 %
Assuming the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is $3,000 (credit) before adjustment, which of the following would be recorded in the year-end adjusting entry?

Answers

Answer: $14,000

Explanation:

Estimated Uncollectible = (4% * 175,000) + ( 10% * 40,000) + ( 30% * 10,000) + (60% * 5,000)

= 7,000 + 4,000 + 3,000 + 3,000

= $17,000

The credit balance on the Allowance account will be used to account for some of the uncollectibles. The remaining amount will be the year-end adjusting entry;

= 17,000 - 3,000

= $14,000

Which best describes the role that government and business play in investments?

They both invest money to earn a profit.
They both receive capital to use for growth.
They both act as angel investors for start-ups.

Answers

Answer:

They both receive capital to use for growth.

Explanation:

The government received the capital in the form of tax that being paid by the citizens. After collecting the tax income, the government allocated it to make a couple of investments such as building the country's infrastructure, providing aid for people to pursue education, and investing in scientific research/development.

Business on the other hand could receive their capital from either reallocating their profit or receiving capital injection from the investors. They use the capital for growth by reinvesting it to increase the scope of their business operation or putting it under investment accounts.

Answers

Answer:

the question is missing the numbers, so I looked for a similar question:

Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years. a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Answer: $257) b. What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? (Answer: $324.61) c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays 8% interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?

a) PV = $100/1.08 + $100/1.08² + $100/1.08³ = $257.71

b) FV = $257.71 x (1 + 8%)³ = $324.64

c) FV = ($100 x 1.08²) + ($100 x 1.08) + $100 = $324.64

it is exactly the same as the answer for (b)

Answer:

(A) An optimization problem

(B) Variable

(C) $14,700

Explanation:

HOUSTON, PHOENIX, MEMPHIS ----- DALLAS, ATLANTA, DENVER

    |                     |                  |                        |               |                 |

  850               650            300                 800         600           200

Shipping Cost per Room Air Conditioner:

HOUSTON to Dallas - $8   [800 × 8 = $6400]

                   to Atlanta - $12   [50 × 12 = $600]

                   to Denver - $10  

Total shipping cost = $7,000

PHOENIX to Dallas - $10  

                 to Atlanta - $14  [250 × 14 = $3500]

                 to Denver - $9  [200 × 9 = $1800]

Total shipping cost = $5,300

MEMPHIS to Dallas - $11

                 to Atlanta - $8  [300 × 8 = $2400]

                 to Denver - $12

Total shipping cost = $2,400

The total cost of the optimal solution is:

7,000 + 5,300 + 2,400 = $14,700

How was this optimal cost gotten?

- Check the least shipping cost to Dallas, this is found in Houston and that's 8 dollars. Houston hence supplies Dallas 800 ACs and has 50 left. Remember this, in case you need more ACs.

- Check the least shipping cost to Atlanta, this is found in Memphis and that's 8 dollars. An obstruction here is that Memphis only has 300 ACs to send to Atlanta, so Atlanta needs 300 more. Keep this in mind.

- Check the least shipping cost to Denver, this is found in Phoenix and that's 9 dollars. Phoenix hence supplies Denver its needed 200 ACs and has 450 left.

- There is need to complete shipping to Atlanta and the next affordable shipping cost to Atlanta is found in Houston and that's $12. Houston should send its remaining 50 ACs to Atlanta.

- Atlanta needs 250 more ACs and Phoenix has 450 extra. Allen Air Conditioning Company can now settle for the relatively high shipping cost of Phoenix to Atlanta, to supply the remaining 250 ACs which Atlanta needs.

Answer:

10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.

variable cost per unit = 28 + 12 + 10 + 3 + 16 + 14 + 5 + 8 + 15 + 30 + 15 = $156

average fixed cost per unit = $500,000 / 50,000 units = $10

total cost per unit = $166

desired profit margin = 40%, so total costs must be 60% of selling price

selling price = $166 / 60% = $276.67 ≈ $277 per unit

10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.

retailers' margin = $277 x 20% = $55.40

selling price to retailers = $277 - $55.40 = $221.60

wholesalers' margin = $221.60 x 10% = $22.16

selling price to wholesalers = $221.60 - $22.16 = $199.44 per unit

TeleGlobal is an American firm producing TV sets. TeleGlobal imports TV set components from Taiwan and assemb them domestically. Suppose that in the United States, a TV set sells for $500 and that 80% of the TV set's value comes from the value of the imported components. The United States imposes a 30% tariff on TV sets and a 10% tariff on the TV set's components. Assume that costs of producing components are the same in the United States a Taiwan. Based on the information provided, the effective rate of protection that TeleGlobal receives from the tariff is:__________.
a. -17.5%
b. 70.0%
c. 110.0%
d. 24.4%
e. 47.5%

Answer:

The right choice is Option c (110.0%).

Explanation:

⇒ [tex]Effective \ rate \ of \ protection = tariff \ rate \ on \ imported \ finished \ good + price \ of \ Component\times \frac{(tariff \ on \ imported \ good- tariff \ on \ imported \ component)}{(Price \ of \ finished \ good - Price \ of \ components)}[/tex]

On estimating the values, we get

⇒                                   = [tex]30 \ percent + (80 \ percent\times 500)\times \frac{(30 \ percent - 10 \ percent)}{500-80 \ percent\times 500}[/tex]

Bramble Corp. sells MP3 players for $60 each. Variable costs are $30 per unit, and fixed costs total $120000. How many MP3 players must Bramble sell to earn net income of $300000?

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units=  14,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $60

Variable costs are $30 per unit

Fixed costs total $120,000.

Desired profit= $300,000

To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (120,000 + 300,000) / 30

Break-even point in units=  14,000 units

One year ago, Tyler Stasney founded Swift Classified Ads. Stasney remembers that you took an accounting course while in college and comes to you for advice. He wishes to know how much net income his business earned during the past year in order to decide whether to keep the company going. His accounting records consist of the T-accounts from his ledger, which were prepared by an accountant who moved to another city. The ledger at December 31 follows. The accounts have not been adjusted. Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded. During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount. Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies. Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year. At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.

Answers

Answer:

net income = $33,900

Explanation:

The T-accounts are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded.

Dr Accounts receivable 1,600

    Cr Service revenue 1,600

During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount.

Dr Unearned revenue 900

    Cr Service revenue 900

Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies.

Dr Rent expense 2,400

    Cr Prepaid rent 2,400

Dr Supplies expense 1,700

    Cr Supplies 1,700

Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year.

Dr Depreciation expense 5,000

    Cr Accumulated depreciation 5,000

At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.

Dr Wages expense 1,200

    Cr Wages payable 1,200

Total expense for the year = $17,000 (paid wages) + $1,200 (accrued wages) + $800 (utilities) + $2,400 (rent) + $1,700 (supplies) + $5,000 (depreciation) = $28,100

total revenues = $59,500 (previously recorded) + $1,600 (unrecorded service revenue) + $900 (accrued service revenue) = $62,000

net income = $62,000 - $28,100 = $33,900
