Answers

Answer:

true

Explanation:

"It started with the Consumer Credit Protection Act of 1968, when Congress moved to shield consumers and their financial records from abuse. In the years following, other laws refined consumer rights, spelling out how the government can access bank customers’ information, how banks treat borrowers and the way banks handle customer deposits.

It all came to a head after the Great Recession in 2008, and out of that, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was formed, a new government agency dedicated to protecting consumers.

Today, there are countless laws, acts and regulations designed to protect consumers. The sheer number of laws can be overwhelming, but it is important that consumers understand their basic rights, so they can identify when those rights have been violated."

Suppose that France and Austria both produce rye and wine. France's opportunity cost of producing a bottle of wine is 4 bushels of rye while Austria's opportunity cost of producing a bottle of wine is 10 bushels of rye. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing wine in the two countries, you can tell that __________ has a comparative advantage in the production of wine and __________has a comparative advantage in the production of rye.


Suppose that France and Austria consider trading wine and rye with each other. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than __________of rye for each bottle of wine it exports to Austria. Similarly, Austria can gain from trade as long as it receives more than __________of wine for each bushel of rye it exports to France.

Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following prices of trade (that is, price of wine in terms of rye) would allow both Austria and France to gain from trade?

a. 7 bushels of rye per bottle of wine
b. 4 bushels of rye per bottle of wine
c. 1 bushel of rye per bottle of wine
d. 11 bushels of rye per bottle of wine

Answers

Answer:

France has comparative advantage in production of wine

Austria has comparative advantage in production of rye.

4 bushels of rye for each bottle of wine

1 bottle of wine for each bushel.

b. 4 bushel of rye per bottle of wine.

Explanation:

France has comparative advantage in producing wine as it has opportunity cost of 4 bushels per bottle of wine. Austria has comparative advantage in producing bushels as it has opportunity cost of 10 bushels per bottle of wine. The both countries can gain advantage if they agree for 4 bushels per wine.

This activity is important because any business that offers multiple product lines to multiple market segments is faced with the task of making the product/market decisions and prioritizing those decisions. Products and market segments that are growing quickly and are very profitable should get more attention and resources than a product and market segment that does not show as much potential.
Once a marketing manager creates a market-product grid, they must select which segments to target. To do this, the marketing manager should use several criteria in assessing the different segments. Those criteria include: market size, expected growth, competitive position, cost of reaching the segment, and the compatibility with the organization's objectives and resources.
The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate your understanding of the market-product development process by analyzing a gift shop's markets and products.
Read the case below and then answer the questions that follow as you consider its markets and product offerings.
A small local gift shop recently marked its 25th anniversary of being in business. Over that time, the owners have continually changed the products sold in its store to reflect changes in the market. From the early days of selling small gift-type items such as figurines and collectibles, the store now offers a more eclectic mix of merchandise that includes Vera Bradley purses and inexpensive jewelry, as well as items that could be classified as "gift-type" products and merchandise that is best described as "collectibles."
However, the demographics of the store's market, as well as the needs of that market, seem to be changing. There has been an influx of younger customers (20s and 30s) into the area, which has brought the average age of the area down by 9.8 years. This rapidly growing segment doesn't seem interested in buying the same collectibles that their parents bought. Many older residents (60s and 70s) have been leaving the area for retirement. The older customers are still buying the collectibles, but are also buying gifts for children and grandchildren for holidays and special occasions. Indeed, while sales of merchandise aimed at the younger customers have grown 30 percent, sales to the older crowd have been flat. And the younger group has now passed the older segment in terms of the size of the population. While there are other stores in the area selling similar merchandise, this gift shop has managed to get an exclusive on the Vera Bradley line, which has been popular with the younger customers. The owners of the gift shop are considering which market segment should be the focus of their attention and limited resources. This is an especially critical decision because of the limited space in the store and the need to add fixtures for carrying some of the collectible items that are coming on the market.
Based on the limited information in the case, which market segment is larger?
a) the over-80 segment
b) all segments are the same size
c) the 60s and 70s segment
d) the 20s and 30s segment

Answers

Answer:

d) the 20s and 30s segment

Explanation:

The case clearly states "And the younger group has now passed the older segment in terms of the size of the population."

Besides the fact that there are more younger people than older people in the area, the demographic of the store's customers is changing also: "... sales of merchandise aimed at the younger customers have grown 30 percent, sales to the older crowd have been flat.".

We can imply that the store's largest market segment is young people in their 20s and 30s.

1. Rosa Green estimates the cost of future projects for a large contracting firm. Rosa uses precisely the same techniques to estimate the costs of every potential job and formulates bids by adding a standard profit markup. 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.

There are 3 factories on the Momiss River. Each emits 2 types of pollutants, labeled P1 and P2, into the river. If the waste from each factory is processed, the pollution in the river can be reduced. It costs $1500 to process a ton of factory 1 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.10 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.45 ton. It costs $1000 to process a ton of factory 2 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.20 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.25 ton. It costs $2000 to process a ton of factory 3 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.40 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.30 ton. The state wants to reduce the amount of P1 in the river by at least 30 tons and the amount of P2 by at least 40 tons.

One of the disadvantages of the sole proprietorship is related to the fact that the amount of equity capital that can be raised to finance the business is limited to the owner's personal wealth. ____________ is about determining how the firm should finance or pay for assets. The risk manager monitors and manages the firm's risk exposure in financial and commodity markets and the firm's relationships with insurance providers. Privately held, or closely held, corporations are typically owned by a small number of investors, and their shares are not traded publicly.

Answers

Answer:

The missing word is: Financial Risk

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Financial Risk" is used in the field of business and finances in order to explain that the companies, and also the government, have to find a way to determine how the firm will finance itself so that they could pay for all the assets they own. Moreover, this financial term implicates the loss of the money that can happen when the company needs to invest in assets and the operations may not go right. So that is why that it is a concept used to understand the danger that the organization has when it comes to acquire the assets and pay for them.

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:

Infant-industry argument

Explanation:

Here is a paraphrased version of the lobbyist's claim and it is from here that we get our answer.

"He claims that this industry in question is new and currently cannot compete with foreign industry".

What this tells us is that this industry in question is an infant industry. An infant industry is a new industry yet to be past it's developmental stage and which cannot be compete yet with other established industries.

Refer to the accompanying figures. If Mallory and Rick are the only two consumers in this market and the price of soda is $0.75 per can, then what will be the market demand for soda each month?

Answers

Answer:

the market demand is 50

Explanation:

The computation of the market demand for soda is shown below:

As we know that the market demand is the sum of the individual demand total

So in the given case, the market demand would be

= Mallory demand at $0.75 per can + Rick demand at $0.75 per can

= 30 + 20

= 50

Hence, the market demand is 50

Analyzing Unearned Revenue Disclosures
The following disclosures (excerpted) are from the August 28, 2016, annual report of Costco Wholesale Corporation.
Revenue Recognition: We generally recognize sales, net of estimated returns, at the time the member takes possession of merchandise or receives services. When we collect payment from customers prior to the transfer of ownership of merchandise or the performance of services, the amount recieved is generally recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets until the sales or service is completed. Membership fee revenue represents annual membership fees paid by our memberships. We account for membership fee revenue, net of estimated refunds, on a deferred basis, whereby revenue is recognized ratably over the one-year membership period.

Total current liabilities $15,575 $16,539
(a) Which of the following statements best explains in layman terms how Costco accounts for the cash received for its membership fees?
Because Costco does not know how many of its members will continue to the end of the year, cash received from members is recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue only at year-end.
When it receives cash, the company records it as a current liability. Then, it recognizes revenue evenly over the year.
The company records revenue when the cash is received.
Because Costco has a refund policy, the company records revenue when the cash is received, less an allowance for expected membership terminations.

Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation

Answers

Answer: $56,040,000

Explanation:

Here is the question:

1.Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation's break-even point in sales dollars for the year.

Sales = $75,000,000

Less: variable cost = $75,000,000 + ($75,000,000 × 8%) = $31,500,000 + $6,000,000 = $37,500,000

Contribution margin = $37,500,000

Fixed cost = 10,260,000 + 10,260,000 + 7,500,000 = $28,020,000

Operating income = $11,130,000

Contribution margin = 0.5

Break even point in sales will now be:

= Fixed cost/contribution margin ratio

= $28,020,000/0.5

= $56,040,000

The city of​ Belgrade, Serbia, is contemplating building a second airport to relieve congestion at the main airport and is considering two potential​ sites, X and Y. Hard Rock Hotels would like to purchase land to build a hotel at the new airport. The value of land has been rising in anticipation and is expected to skyrocket once the city decides between sites X and Y.​ Consequently, Hard Rock would like to purchase land now. Hard Rock will sell the land if the city chooses not to locate the airport nearby. Hard Rock has four​ choices: (1) buy land at​ X, (2) buy land at​ Y, (3) buy land at both X and​ Y, or​ (4) do nothing.

Current purchase price 29 18
Profits if airport & hotel built at this site 35 30

Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle. What incentive did she have for making a down payment?
O A tax break
O A higher loan rate
O A less secure loan
O A reduced time in debt

Answers

Because Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle, an incentive that she have for making such down payment is a reduced time in debt.

What do we mean by down payment?

Basically, a down payment refers to the cash that the buyer pays upfront in a transaction and other large purchases. These payment are typically a percentage of the purchase price and can range from as little as 3% to as much as 20%

Here, she intends to purchase that motorbike on credit and by making a down-payment, she is reducing the amount she needs to borrow to buy the bike. So, a reduced loan amount means that Gina will require less to repay which implies that the interest to be paid will reduce.

Allen Air Conditioning manufactures room air conditioners at plants in Houston, Phoenix, and Memphis. These are sent to regional distributors in Dallas, Atlanta, and Denver. The shipping costs vary, and the company would like to find the least-cost way to meet the demands at each of the distribution centers. Dallas needs to receive 800 air conditioners per month, Atlanta needs 600, and Denver needs 200. Houston has 850 air conditioners available each month, Phoenix has 650, and Memphis has 300. The shipping cost per unit from Houston to Dallas is $8, to Atlanta $12, and to Denver $10. The cost per unit from Phoenix to Dallas is $10, to Atlanta $14, and to Denver $9. The cost per unit from Memphis to Dallas is $11, to Atlanta $8, and to Denver $12. 14700.

Required:
a. Based on the given demand and​ supply, the given transportation problem is ________
b. Before finding the initial​ solution, a dummy_____________ should be introduced.
c. The total cost of the optimal solution​ =____________

Answers

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.

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
b. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

Answers

Answer:

a. P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States; and also P = 20 and Q = 100 in France.

b. P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States; and P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

Explanation:

Note: The part b of the requirement is not complete. The entire question is therefore represented with the complete pat b before answering the question as follows:

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

The explanation to the answers is now provided as follows:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In economics, an equilibrium occurs at point where the quantities demanded is equal to the quantities supplied.

Let Q denotes equilibrium quantity and P denotes equilibrium price, the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries can therefore be calculated as follows:

In the United States

QD =300 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −300 + 20P

300 + 300 = 20P + 10P

600 = 30P

P = 600 / 30

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States.

In France

QD = 300 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

300 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

333.33 = 16.67P

P = 333.33 / 16.67

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 also in France.

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In the United States

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −300 + 20P

400 + 300 = 20P + 10P

700 = 30P

P = 700 / 30

P = 23.33

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(23.33)

Q = 400 – 233.30

Q = 166.70

Therefore, P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States.

In France

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

400 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

433.33 = 16.67P

P = 433.33 / 16.67

P = 25.99 = 26

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(26)

Q = 400 – 260

Q = 140

Therefore, P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

garland mills purchased a certain piece of macinery 3 years ago for $500,000. Its present resale value is $320,000. Assuming that the macine's resale value decreases exponentially, what will it be 4 years from now

Answers

Answer:

New value= $80,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $500,000

Current value= $320,000

First, we need to calculate the annual decrease in value:

Total decrease 3 years= 500,000 - 320,000= 180,000

Annual decrease= 180,000/3 = $60,000

Now, the value of the machine 4 years from now:

New value= 320,000 - (60,000*4)

New value= $80,000

1. Accrual accounting is used by the vast majority of companies. *
O
True
O False​

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The accrual accounting system is one of the two methods of reporting or recording income and expenses. The other way is the cash system.

In the accrual method, income and expenses are accounted for when they were earned or incurred regardless of whether money changed hands. Sales are reported when goods are delivered, and the invoice is issued even if the customer has not paid.

The accrual system is the standard method of operating for many businesses, big and small. The accrual method matches revenue and income with the time of their respective economic events. The general accounting principles recommend the accrual accounting system for both the private and public sectors.

Alan inherited $100,000 with the stipulation that he "invest it to financially benefit his family." Alan and his wife Alice decided they would invest the inheritance to help them accomplish two financial goals: purchasing a Park City vacation home and saving for their son Cooper’s education.

Required:
Determine the two annual after-tax rate of return.

Answers

Answer:

the question is missing the information about potential investments, so I looked for a similar one:

                                                                    5 Years  18 Years

Corporate bonds                                        5.75%  4.75%  

(ordinary interest taxed annually)

Dividend-paying stock                                 3.50%   3.50%  

(no appreciation and dividends are taxed at 15%)  

Growth stock                                              FV $65,000 FV $140,000  

Municipal bond (tax-exempt)                3.20%  3.10%  

Alan and Alice should invest in growth stocks since they yield the highest after tax return:

5 years:

FV of growth stocks = $65,000

taxable gain = $65,000 -$50,000 = $15,000 x 15% = $2,250

net gain = $15,000 - $2,250 = $12,750

to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:

62,750 = 50,000 x (1 + r)⁵

(1 + r)⁵ = 62,750 / 50,000 = 1.255

⁵√(1 + r)⁵ = ⁵√1.255

1 + r = 1.046

r = 4.6% after tax yield per year

18 years:

FV of growth stocks = $140,000

taxable gain = $140,000 -$50,000 = $90,000 x 15% = $13,500

net gain = $90,000 - $13,500 = $76,500

to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:

126,500 = 50,000 x (1 + r)¹⁸

(1 + r)¹⁸ = 126,500 / 50,000 = 2.53

¹⁸√(1 + r)¹⁸ = ¹⁸√2.53

1 + r = 1.053

r = 5.3% after tax yield per year

Answer:

1) In general, is it a good idea to make only minimum payments on your credit cards?

No, the small payment requirement is mathematically guaranteed to keep you in debt for many years.

All you have to do is analyze the interest rates charged by the credit card companies and it is really difficult for any investment to match those interest rates.

2) Assuming you have $1,500 in your budget this month with which to pay down your credit cards, how much should you pay on each card?

I would start with the cards that charge the highest interest rates. I would pay the full balance of the department store card and the gasoline card = $600 + $300 = $900

Since I have $600 left, I would then pay the minimum payments for the cards that charge the least interest rates. I would pay $40 to Discover card and $60 to VISA.

The remaining $500 would be used to pay MasterCard 1 card and lower its balance.

Answers

Answer:

This technique is called "bait and switch", it is illegal and is considered false advertising. A seller cannot falsely advertise a product and then simply say that they do not have it on stock. It is a type of sales fraud and it is prohibited by the Lanham Act.

In order for this situation to be considered legal, the seller must have advertised and sold a certain amount of coats, but it didn't sell any. I.e. the seller runs out of stock because it already sold the 3 coats.

The following expenditures were incurred by Tamarisk, Inc. in purchasing land: cash price $74,000, accrued taxes $4,400, attorneys’ fees $4,300, real estate broker’s commission $1,500, and clearing and grading $3,600. What is the cost of the land?

Answers

Answer:

$87,800

Explanation:

The following expenditures were incurred by Tamerisk incorporation when purchasing a land

Cash price = $74,000

Accured taxes = $4,400

Attorneys fee= $4,300

Real estate brokers commission = $1,500

Clearing and grading = $3,600

Therefore the cost of the land can be calculated as follows

= $74,000 + $4,400 + $4,300 + $1,500 + $3,600

= $87,800

Hence the cost of the land is $87,800

Producers of snack foods (such as candy bars or potato chips) are most likely to use a(n) _____________ distribution strategy for their products.

Answers

Answer:

A.intensive

Explanation:

Products such as chocolate bars and chips fit the classification of non-durable consumer goods, that is, those that are produced for immediate consumption.

Its characteristics involve meeting the needs of the final consumer periodically, generally they are low-cost products that need quick replacement to meet the high demand for these non-durable products.

Therefore, the best strategy for the distribution of non-durable products is the intensive strategy, making it available in different places with easy access to the consumer and with high replacement.

Consider a simple example economy where there are two goods, coconuts and restaurant meals (coconut-based). There are two firms. A coconut producer collects and sells 10 million coconuts at $2.00 each. The firm pays $5 million in wages, $0.5 million in interest on an old loan, and $1.5 million in taxes to the government. We also know that 4 million coconuts are sold to the public for consumption, and 6 million coconuts are sold to the restaurant firm, which uses them to prepare meals. The restaurant sells $30 million in meals. The restaurant pays $4 million in wages and the government $3 million in taxes. The government supplies security and accounting services and employs only labor, and government workers are paid $5.5 million, collected in taxed by the government. Finally, consumers pay $1 million in taxes to the government in addition to the taxes paid by the two firms.

Required:
a. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the product approach.
b. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the expenditure approach.
c. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the income approach.

Answers

Answer:

1) GDP using product Approach ; Market value of all goods and services produced

= Coconut + Restaurant meal

= 10 million*$2 + ($30 million - $6 million*$2) as 6 million coconuts are sold to restaurant as raw materials so to avoid double counting.

= $20 million + $30 million - $12 million

= $38 million

2) Expenditure Approach : Consumption + Investment + Government Expenditure + Net Exports  

= $4 million * $2 + $30 million + $5.5 million

= $8 million + $30 million + $5.5 million

= $43.5 million

3) Income Approach : Wages + Rent + Interest + Profit

= $5 million + $0.5 million + $1.5 million +$3 million + $4 million + $1 million

= $15 million

Yet key technological developmentscaused a rapid growth in American urban areas.Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. Theabundance caused food prices to fall.The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work innorthern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today,the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization,In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities withmore than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities.
