Consider an economy in which money does not exist, so that agents rely on barter to carry out transactions. When the economy was small, barter seemed sufficient. However, the economy has now begun to grow. If people in this economy trade five goods, the price tag of each good must list____prices, and the economy requires____prices for people to carry out transactions. Suppose that the number of goods people trade increases to 17. Then the price tag of each good must list____prices, and the number of prices that the economy requires increases to____.
Now suppose that our economy has a money. The government now issues a national currency and there is no longer any barter. In this economy, money and currency are not the same because:____.
1. The fact that the government issues currency means that the currency will be accepted as money by all agents.
2. The fact that the currency is backed by the government means that it will never lose value and will remain a perfect unit of account.
3. Just because the government issues currency does not mean that the currency will be accepted as money, since it must be used as a medium of exchange, store of value and standard of value.
4. Just because the government issues currency does not mean that the currency will be accepted as money, and buyers and sellers still need barter to ensure that money does not lose its value.
Suppose now that our economy is suffering from rapid, ongoing increases in the cost of living. Which characteristic of money is directly negatively impacted in that economy?
1.Medium of exchange.
2.Double coincidence of wants.
3.Store of value.
4.Unit of account.

4. The following is Arkadia Corporation's contribution format income statement for last month: Sales $1,200,000 Variable expenses 800,000 Contribution margin 400,000 Fixed expenses 300,000 Net operating income $100,000 The company has no beginning or ending inventories and produced and sold 20,000 units during the month. (Each requirement is worth 3 points for a total of 18 points) Required: a. What is the company's contribution margin ratio
Answer:
Missing word "sold 20,000 units during the month at a sales price of $60 per unit.. b. What is the company's degree of operating leverage? c. How many units would the company have to sell to achieve a desired operating income before taxes of $150,000?"
a. Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution margin / Sales
= 400000 / 1200000
= 0.3333
= 33.33%
b. Operating Leverage = Contribution / Net Income
= 400000 / 100000
= 4 Times
c. Sale to achieve desired profit = (Fixed Cost + Desired Profit) / Contribution Margin Ratio
= (300000 + 150000) / 0.3333
= $1350000
Sales in Units = $1350000 / 60 units = 22500 units

For this question to solve, we need to draw a feasible region diagram, which I have attached in the attachment. Please refer to it.
So,
Points According to the feasible region are:
D(0,10) ; A(6,10) ; B(24,4) ; C(30,0) ;
Value of objective function at corner points:
At D(0,10) ; P = 2H + 4C = 2x0 + 4 x 10 = $40
At A(6,10); P = 2H + 4C = 2x6 + 4x10 = $52
At B((24,4) : P = 2H + 4C = 2 x 24 + 4x4 = $64
At C(30,0) ; P = 2H +4C = 2x30 + 4x0 = $60
Hence,
P is maximum at corner point B(24,4)
For number of units of hockey stick = 24
For number of units of chess sets = 4

Fiji, Inc. started 2025 with $12,000 in assets and $2,500 in liabilities. Fiji had issued 50 shares of stock when it went into business in 2019 for $10 per share, and not stock has been issued since that time. At December 31, 2025, Fiji had $23,000 in assets and $4,000 in liabilities. How much was Fiji's net income during 2025 if the company paid $1,000 in dividends during the year?
a $11,500
b $12,000
c $10,500
d $11,000
e None of the above
Answer:
$See below
Explanation:
Fuji Net income in 2025 is computed as
= Beginning asset + Dividend - Beginning liabilities
Given that;
Beginning asset = $12,000
Dividend = $1,000
Beginning liabilities = $2,500
Net income
= $12,000 + $1,000 - $2,500
= $10,500
An investor, who believes the economy is slowing down, wishes to reduce the risk of her portfolio. She currently owns 12 securities, each with a market value of $3,000. The current beta of the portfolio is 1.21 and the beta of the riskiest security is 1.62. What will the portfolio beta be if the riskiest security is replaced with a security of equal market value but a beta of 0.80
Answer:
1.14
Explanation:
Investors has number of securities = 12
Each with a market value = $3,000
Current beta of the portfolio (before replacement of riskiest security ) = 1.21
Beta of the riskiest security= 1.62
If the riskiest security is replaced = 0.80
Portfolio Beta before replacement of the riskiest security = Remaining number of securities / total number of securities * Beta of securities + Number of riskiest security / total number of securities * Beta of the riskiest security
Portfolio Beta before replacement of the riskiest security = Weight of securities*Beta of securities + Weight of riskiest security*Beta of riskiest security
Let the beta of securities be x.
1.21 =11/12 *x + 1/12 *1.62
1.21 =11/12 *x +0.135
1.21-0.135 = 11/12 x
1.075 =11/12 x
x = 1.075*12/11
x = 1.1727
Beta of securities = 1.17
Portfolio beta after the replacement of the riskiest security = 11/12*1.17 +1/12*0.8 = 1.0725 + 0.0666 = 1.1391 = 1.14

1. What information is provided by the budget? Specifically, what questions can the bank manager ask of the Operations Department
manager?
2. What information does the static budget fail to provide? Specifically, could the budget information be presented differently to
provide even more insight for the bank manager?
Answer:
Some of the information provided by the budget is...
fixed costs - items such as rent, salaries and financing costs
variable costs - including raw materials and overtime
one-off capital costs - purchases of computer equipment or premises, for example
Some interview questions include:
What would you say is your leadership style?
You have an underperforming team member–how do you handle that?
Your team's morale has been low–how would you go about fixing that?
Tell me about a past project that did not go as planned.
2. One key disadvantage of a static budget is that it is not flexible and so it cannot be changed to take advantage of changes in revenue or expenses as the year proceeds. With a static budget, companies cannot manage the impact of changes, for example, by decreasing a portion of the budget in response to slow sales.

A man with $20,000 to invest decides to diversify his investments by placing $10,000 in an account that earns 5.2% compounded continuously and $10,000 in an account that earns 6.4% compounded annually. Use graphical approximation methods to determine how long it will take for his total investment in the two accounts to grow to $35,000. It will take approximately nothing years for his
Answer:
9.749 years
Explanation:
Given that :
Principal, P = 20,000
Total investment A = 35000
Investment 1:
P = $10,000
Compounded continuously at r = 5.2% = 0.052
A = Pe^rt
Investment B:
P = $10,000
Compounded annually at r = 6.4% = 0.064
A = P(1 + r)^t
Hence, final amount, A on both investment = 35000
A = Pe^rt + P(1 + r)^t
35000 = 10000e^0.052t + 10000(1 + 0.064)^t
Divide through by 10000
3.5 = e^0.052t + 1.064^t
t = 9.749123
t = 9.749 years

a. The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating.
b. The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating.
c. The preferred stock is cumulative and participating.
Answer:
preferred stock dividends = 1,900 x $100 x 9% = $17,100
common stocks = 5,400 stocks
a) distribution of dividends:
preferred stocks = $17,100
common stocks = $70,400
b) distribution of dividends:
preferred stocks = $17,100 x 3 = $51,300
common stocks = $36,200
c) distribution of dividends:
preferred stocks = $51,300 + (1,900/7,300 x $19,100) = $56,271
common stocks = $17,100 + (5,400/7,300 x $19,100) = $29,429

Jeremiah expressed his disdain for the economic reports he heard on the news. "All economists care about is increasing GDP," he said. "I wish economists cared about living conditions and well-being instead of just some economic indicator." How could you acknowledge the shortcomings of GDP to Jeremiah, while also showing him how GDP functions as both an economic indicator and a measure of well-being? While it is true that GDP calculations omit such things as and , it is still a useful way to measure .
Answer: the value as opposed to the price of an item; environmental degradation; total output and income.
Explanation:
While it is true that GDP calculations omit such things as the value as opposed to the price of an item and environmental degradation, it is still a useful way to measure total output and income.
Gross Domestic Product is a means of measuring economic performance over a given period(usually a year). It works by adding up the final value of the goods and services produced in a country in that given period and thus can show the total output and income in a country.
Sadly however, it has some shortcomings. One of those is that it uses the prices of goods not their actual value. Another is that it does not take into account important factors such as environmental degradation which if added, would reduce GDP because the environment on average suffers negatively from production.
Which of the following scenarios illustrates the law of demand?
A. A research company finds that the more expensive a particular brand of a designer handbag, the more that consumers are willing to purchase the brand.
B. Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low, and less when the price is high.
C. Francis does not care about the price of coffee at the coffee shop – he must buy two cappuccinos every day, regardless of the price.
D. John likes to drink spring water. At $2 he buys four bottles of water, and at $1.50 he still buys four bottles of water.
Answer:
Option B is correct.
Explanation:
In order to answer this question correctly, we first need to understand the law of demands.
Law of demands: It says that the relationship of price and quantity demanded is inversely proportional. It means if the price of a particular product goes high, then the quantity of demand will be reduced. Similarly, if the price of the product is low then the quantity of demanded will be higher.
Here,
Option B is the most relevant to the Law of Demand which says that Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low. It means when the price is low, the quantity of steak demanded is higher in Kathleen's case. Furthermore, Kathleen eats less when the price is high. It means, when the price of steak is higher then the quantity of steak demanded from Kathleen is low.
Hence, Option B is the correct option which fulfills the law of demand.
