Which of the statements is the best description of inflation? The prices of only consumer goods are increasing. The price of all goods and services have increased proportionately. The price of all goods and services in the economy are increasing. Real GDP is rising. An increase in the overall price level has occurred.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

An increase in the overall price level has occurred.

Explanation:

Inflation can be defined as the persistent general rise in the price of goods and services in an economy at a specific period of time.

Mathematically, inflation is given by the formula;

Inflation = Nominal interest - Real interest rate

Hence, the best description of inflation is an increase in the overall price level has occurred.

Additionally, economics can be classified into two (2) main categories, namely;

1. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.

2. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets. Simply stated, it focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.

Hence, macroeconomic is a kind of externalities that affects the levels of unemployment, inflation, or growth in the economy as a whole.

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

Answers

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

Maximum possible profit = $64

Gonzalez, Inc. has a fiscal year-end of September 30th. On March 1, 2018, Gonzalez authorized $800,000 of bonds payable, with a term of 12 years. The bonds carry a stated interest rate of 6%, with interest to be paid semi-annually on February 28th and August 31st. On August 1, 2019, Gonzalez issued three-quarters of the bonds for cash, at a premium of $25,400.

Required:
Prepare the journal entries that would be required relating to the bonds over period March 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019.

Answers

Answer:

September 30, 2019

Dr. Interest Expense $2,823.61

Dr. Premium on Bond $176.39

Cr. Cash __________$3,000

Explanation:

August 1, 2019

As the Bond was issued on August 1, 2019, So the first entry will be made at the issuance

Issuance of Bond = Total authorized x 3/4 = $800,000 x 3/4 = $600,000

Cash receipt = Face value + Premium on Bond = $600,000 + $25,400 = $625,400

August 31, 2019

As interest is paid on this date.

Interst payment = Face value x Coupon rate = $600,000 x 6% x 6/12 = $18,000

Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = Premium on Bond / ( Years to maturity x Coupon payment period per year ) = $25,400 / ( 12 years x 2 periods per year ) = $1,058.33

September 30, 2019

On this date interest of one month is accrued which needs to be recorded.

Interest payable = 600,000 x 6% x 1/12 = $3,000

Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = ( 25,400 / 24 ) / 6 = $176.39

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.

Answers

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.

Steinberg Company produces commercial printers. One is the regular model, a basic model that is designed to copy and print in black and white. Another model, the deluxe model, is a color printer-scanner-copier. For the coming year, Steinberg expects to sell 100,000 regular models and 20,000 deluxe models. A segmented income statement for the two products is as follows:

Regular Model Deluxe Model Total

Sales $12,000,000 $10,720,000 $22,720,000
Less: Variable costs 7,200,000 6,432,000 13,632,000

Segment margin $3,600,000 $3,328,000 $6,928,000
Less: Common fixed costs 1,702,400
Operating income $5,225,600

Required:
a. Compute the number of regular models and deluxe models that must be sold to break even.
b. Using information only from the total column of the income statement, compute the sales revenue that must be generated for the company to break even.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the sales proportion of each product:

Regular= 12,000,000/22,720,000= 0.53

Deluxe= 10,720,000/22,720,000= 0.47

Now, we will determine the break-even point for the company as a whole:

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin

Total fixed costs= 2,160,000 + 1,702,400= $3,862,400

Unitary contribution margin:

Regular= 4,800,000/100,000= $48

Delux= 4,288,000/20,000= $214.4

Weighted average contribution margin= (0.53*48) + (0.47*214.4)

Weighted average contribution margin= $128.35

Break-even point (units)= 3,862,400/128.35

Break-even point (units)= 30,093

For each product:

Regular= 0.53*30,093= 15,949

Deluxe= 0.47*30,093= 14,144

Finally, we need to calculate the break-even point in dollars for the whole company:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 3,862,400/ (9,088,000/22,720,000)

Break-even point (dollars)= 3,862,400/0.4

Break-even point (dollars)= $9,206,000

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.

The total amount of depreciation recorded against an asset over the entire time the asset has been owned: Multiple Choice Is shown on the income statement of the final period. Is referred to as an accrued asset. Is only recorded when the asset is disposed of. Is referred to as depreciation expense. Is referred to as accumulated depreciation.

Answers

Answer:

Is referred to as accumulated depreciation.

Explanation:

Depreciation can be defined as the reduction of cost of a fixed asset systematically until the value of the asset becomes zero.

The Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) can be defined as a depreciation system that avails business owners or companies the ability and opportunity to recover or recoup the cost basis of physical assets that have experienced deterioration over a specific period of time.

In the United States of America, the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is used mainly for tax purposes because it gives room for faster depreciation of a physical asset in its first years or initial usage and reduces depreciation as it is being used over a long period of time.

Hence, the total amount of depreciation recorded against an asset over the entire time the asset has been owned is referred to as accumulated depreciation.

Economies of scale are the cost advantages from expanding the scale of production in the long run. The effect is to reduce average costs over a range of output
These lower costs represent an improvement in productive efficiency and can give a business a competitive advantage in a market. They lead to lower prices and higher profits – this is called a positive sum game for producers and consumers (i.e. the welfare of both will improve)
We make no distinction between fixed and variable costs in the long run
As long as the long run average total cost curve (LRAC) is declining, then internal economies of scale are being exploited.
The table below shows a numerical example of falling LRAC

Long Run Output (Units) Total Costs (£s) Long Run Average Cost (£ per unit)
1000 12000 12
2000 20000 10
5000 45000 9
10000 80000 8
20000 144000 7.2
50000 330000 6.6
100000 640000 6.4
500000 3000000 6
Returns to Scale and Costs in the Long Run

The table below shows how changes in the scale of production can, if increasing returns to scale are exploited, lead to lower average costs.

Factor Inputs Production Costs
(K) (La) (L) (Q) (TC) (TC/Q)
Capital Land Labour Output Total Cost Average Cost
Scale A 5 3 4 100 3256 32.6
Scale B 10 6 8 300 6512 21.7
Scale C 15 9 12 500 9768 19.5
Costs: Assume the cost of each unit of capital = £600, Land = £80 and Labour = £200
Because the % change in output exceeds the % change in factor inputs used, then, although total costs rise, the average cost per unit falls as the business expands from scale A to B to C

Examples of Increasing Returns to Scale

Much of the new thinking in economics focuses on the increasing returns available to growing businesses:

An example of this is the software and computer gaming industry.

The overhead costs of developing new software programs or computer games are huge - often running into hundreds of millions of dollars
The marginal cost of one extra copy for sale is close to zero, perhaps just a few cents or pennies
If a company can establish itself in the market, positive feedback from consumers will expand the installed customer base, raise demand and encourage the firm to increase production
Because marginal cost is low, the extra output reduces average costs creating economies of scale

Think about the following products: cell phone, automobile, clothing, and social media site. Personally, how would you determine and assess the concept of value to the customer for each of these products? Which aspects, technical or social, have the most weight? Would you say that your analysis would be legitimate for others making the same decision?

Answers

Answer:

There are various aspects that would have the most weight.

A prescriptive easementB. An implied license base upon prior useC. Breach of contractD. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

A. A prescriptive easement

Explanation:

A prescriptive easement is defined as the right of a person to use another person's property for a legally defined period of time.

This does not confer ownership to the user only the right to use the land.

In the given scenario Stupendous Productions, Inc. again this year want to put on its Rock-and-Roll Revival, a two-week fesitval with some of the greatest acts in the music industry, on your land.

Since they had used the land before, in court they can ask for a prescriptive easement to use the land for the concert

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

Answers

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

The outstanding capital stock of Coronado Corporation consists of 1,900 shares of $100 par value, 9% preferred, and 5,400 shares of $50 par value common. Assuming that the company has retained earnings of $87,500, all of which is to be paid out in dividends, and that preferred dividends were not paid during the 2 years preceding the current year, state how much each class of stock should receive under each of the following conditions.

a. The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating.
b. The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating.
c. The preferred stock is cumulative and participating.

Answers

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

Lastly, citrus juice and oatmeal are complements and oats are required to make oatmeal.a. Market for oranges,b. Market for citrus juice,c. Market for tangerines,d. Market for oatmeal,e. Market for oats.

Answers

Answer:

See answers below; in details.

Explanation:

A rephrase of the question:

Consider the following conditions and describe what happens to equilibrium price and quantity in each of the listed markets.

(A) MARKET FOR ORANGES

- There are better (or perfect) weather conditions this year

- This will bring about a larger harvest of oranges

- Q2 > Q1

- P2 < P1 , owing to the law of demand and supply. Truly, in this case, 'all other things' such as consumer taste are constant and the weather conditions didn't increase or reduce the turnout of tangerines.

(B) MARKET FOR CITRUS JUICE

- The information given (where consumer taste is constant) shows that the law of rationality applies. Customers/Consumers are rational. They'll go for the cheaper type of citrus juice and this price depends on the magnitude of raw materials such as the tangerines or oranges themselves.

- Given a higher output of oranges, the market for citrus juice will boom. Hence Q2 of citrus juice > Q1 of citrus juice

- P2 of citrus juice < P1 of citrus juice

(C) MARKET FOR TANGERINES

- The information given about absence of consumer preference shows that oranges & tangerines are perfect substitutes.

- Substitution here means that one can perfectly replace the other and/or both fruits give the same value to end users.

- This means that there'll be less purchase of tangerines (either raw or juice) owing to the increased availability of oranges. Keep in mind that the quantity of tangerines harvested or produced did not fall in the year.

- So Q2 = Q1

- There is less purchase of tangerines this year and tangerine is a perishable good (it spoils or loses value with time) so, to encourage consumer purchase, producers in the market for tangerine will reduce the price. So P2 < P1

(D) MARKET FOR OATMEAL  &  (E) MARKET FOR OATS

- Citrus juice and oatmeal are complements. This means that they go together; in consumption. Just like the consumption of PMS is complementary to the consumption of car tires.

- The markets for oats and oatmeal will boom because the market for citrus juice is booming.

- As people consume more citrus juice, they'll purchase and consume more oatmeal.

- The output of oats under this weather condition isn't given so, we'll assume it to be constant.

- So the quantity of oats is constant but the price of oats will rise because its demand will rise or has risen. Q2 = Q1 ;   P2 > P1

- In the market for oatmeal, quantity will increase and price will rise, due to higher demand.  Q2 > Q1 ;   P2 > P1

Business Question! Just the first problem please, thank you

Answers

Answer:

34 coupons. $33.75

Explanation:

The coupons are the interest payments the bond makes.

1. The bond has a term of 17 years and coupons are to be paid semi-annually.

This means that for every year, 2 coupon payments will be made.

In 17 years therefore:

= 17 * 2

= 34 coupons

2. The interest on this bond is 6.75% in a year. The coupon is however, semi-annual. Payment per coupon will therefore be half of the yearly rate:

= 6.75% * 1,000 * 1/2

= $33.75

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
