Identify the possible reason or reasons for this stark difference between income inequality and consumption inequality. Intergenerational mobility allows children to consume more than their parents. The poverty line does not reflect relative poverty. The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income. Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income. Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.

Explanation:

First part of this question reads:

In the United States, the richest quintile of the population receives 13 times as much income as the poorest quintile. However, the richest quintile only spends 4 times as much as the poorest quintile.

The richest quantile can afford to save more than the poorest quantile because they get enough income to manage their daily needs and then save. The poorest quantile on the other hand face a daily struggle and so have to spend all or most of their income to survive.

When the richer quantile goes through temporary fluctuations, they maintain moderate spending because they know it is temporary and so they keep saving. This is not the case for the poorer quantiles who have to spend according to their income - regardless of its fluctuating - to survive.

A truck was acquired on July 1, 2018, at a cost of $311,850. The truck had a six-year useful life and an estimated salvage value of $34,650. The straight-line method of depreciation was used. On January 1, 2021, the truck was overhauled at a cost of $28,875, which extended the useful life of the truck for an additional two years beyond that originally estimated (salvage value is still estimated at $34,650). In computing depreciation for annual adjustment purposes, expense is calculated for each month the asset is owned.

Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.

Answers

Answer:

The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.

Explanation:

The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.

Any profits generated by Dove Corporation will be taxed to the corporation and also taxed to Cynthia as a shareholder whenever Dove distributes the profits as dividends. Taxing Dove and Cynthia creates a double taxation burden for both Dove and Cynthia. Dove Corporation does not get a tax deduction when it distributes dividends to Cynthia.  Furthermore, Cynthia cannot deduct any corporation loss when incurred.  These are unlike when the business was only a sole proprietorship.

To adjust the inventory to the net realizable value.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent units of production= 3,520

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Ending inventory of Work in Process (80% complete) 400 units

Total units started during the year 3,200 units

To calculate the equivalent units using the weighted-average method, we need to use the following formula:

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production= 3,200 + (400*0.8)

Equivalent units of production= 3,520

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. More of Project A's cash flows occur in the later years. b. We must have information on the cost of capital in order to determine which project has the larger early cash flows. c. The crossover rate, i.e., the rate at which Projects A and B have the same NPV, is greater than either project's IRR. d. The NPV profile graph is inconsistent with the statement made in the problem. e. More of Project B's cash flows occur in the later years.

Answers

Answer: a. More of Project A's cash flows occur in the later years.

Explanation:

When a project has its cashflows occurring in later years, the NPV will be less because the discount rate would have a greater period to discount it in as opposed to cashflows that occur more recently which would receive less discounting from the discount rate.

As a result of Project A having more distant cashflows, the discount rate discounted its cash flows more which is why higher rates led to its NPV being zero because those higher rates got to discount it over a longer period.

Imagine a hypothetical economy with a population of 100 people, 80 of which over sixteen.

The unemployment rate in this economy is____________ % (enter percentage as a whole number, not a decimal, no percentage sign). S

Suppose that 10 of those unemployed people get discouraged and give up looking for work. Now, the unemployment rate is __________% (enter percentage as a whole number, not a decimal, no percentage sign).

Answers

Answer:

a) unemployment rate = 15

b) unemployment rate = 2.5

Explanation:

unemployed people are those who are willing and available to work and have actively been seeking a job in the past four weeks. This accurately describes the 12 people who are willing, able and looking for work but cannot find jobs. To calculate the unemployment rate in percentage, the following formula is used:

[tex]unemployment\ rate = \frac{number\ of\ unemployed}{labour\ force} \times 100\\[/tex]

Where:

a) Number of unemployed = 12

Labour force = 80 (number of people over 16 years of age)

[tex]\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{12}{80} \times 100 = 0.15 \times 100 = 15\\[/tex]

b) if 10 of the unemployed people get discouraged and give up looking for work, the number of unemployed becomes 2 persons, (12 - 10 = 2).

[tex]\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{2}{80} \times 100 = \frac{200}{80} = 2.5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

C. may be structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call.

Explanation:

A callable bond is also called a redeemable bond. It a debt instrument that the issuer may decide to call or redeem before the maturity date.

This is used by bond issuers to have a cheaper cost of borrowing funds.

For example when interests are low the issuer can buy back his bonds at a lower cost this reducing his debt burden.

So callable bonds are structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call or redemption.

Every project is unique. It requires the doing of something different, something that was not done previously. Even in what are often called “routine” projects such as home construction, the variables such as terrain, access, zoning laws, labour market, public services and local utilities make each project different. A project is a one-time, once-off activity, never to be repeated exactly the same way again.

Projects are temporary activities. A project is an ad hoc organization of staff, material, equipment and facilities that is put together to accomplish a goal. This goal is within a specific time-frame. Once the goal is achieved, the organization created for it is disbanded or sometimes it is reconstituted to begin work on a new goal (project).

When Valley Co. acquired 80% of the common stock of Coleman Corp., Coleman owned land with a book value of $75,000 and a fair value of $125,000. What is the amount of excess land allocation attributed to the noncontrolling interest at the acquisition date

Answers

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

The amount of excess land allocation attributed to the non controlling interest at the acquisition date is computed below;

Non controlling interest of acquisition date

= (Book value of land - Fair value of land) × 20%

Given that;

Book value of land = $125,000

Fair value of land = $75,000

Then,

Non controlling interest of acquisition date

= ($125,000 - $75,000) × 20%

Answers

Answer:

1. Variable Overhead Efficiency

= Standard rate * (Actual hours - Standard hours)

= 3 * ( 8,800 * 0.3 - 2,560)

= 3 * 80

= $240 Favorable

2. Materials Quantity Variance:

= Standard price * (Standard quantity - Actual quantity)

= 3 * (8,800 * 9.2 - 78,150)

= 3 * 2,810

= $8,430 favorable

3. Materials price variance:

= Standard cost of purchased materials -Actual cost of purchased materials

= (3 * 85,900) - 240,520

= $17,180 Favorable

4. Labor efficiency variance

= Standard labor rate * ( Actual hours worked - Standard labor hours)

= 17 * ( 2,560 - 8,800 * 0.3)

= 17 * 80

= $1,360 Favorable

5. Labor rate variance:

= (Standard rate * actual hours worked) - Actual labor cost

= 17 * 2,560 - 39,424

= $4,096 favorable

6. Variable Overhead rate variance:

= (Overhead rate * Actual hours) - Overhead cost

= (3 * 2,560) - 6,912

= $768 Favorable

Ace Products has a bond issue outstanding with 15 years remaining to maturity, a coupon rate of 8% with semiannual payments of $40, and a par value of $1,000. The price of each bond in the issue is $1,196.00. The bond issue is callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,080. What is the bond's current yield

Answers

Answer:

6.69%

Explanation:

Price of Ace products bond issue = $1,196

Annual coupon payment = $80

Current yield = Annual coupon payment / Bond price

Current yield = $80/$1,196

Current yield = 0.0668896

Current yield = 6.69%

Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $58,000 and you plan to spend all of it. However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 3 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 6 percent per year throughout your career.
Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?

Answers

Answer:

The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.

Explanation:

This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)

Where

FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?

M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740

r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11

g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of years = 40 years

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

FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))

FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951

FV = $1,904,087.20

Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
