Answer:
True
Explanation:
What do most economists believe is the relationship between long run expectations of inflation, actual inflation, and the money supply growth?
Answer:
In the short run, the Phillips curve states that inflation and unemployment are inversely related. As inflation rises, unemployment decreases. But in the long run, the unemployment rate is fixed and will not be affected by the inflation rate. In the long run a higher inflation rate does not affect the unemployment rate (vertical line).
The following are budgeted data: January February March Sales in units 16,600 23,200 19,600 Production in units 19,600 20,600 19,300 One pound of material is required for each finished unit. The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 25% of the following month's production needs. Purchases of raw materials for February would be budgeted to be: Multiple Choice 20,925 pounds 20,575 pounds 20,275 pounds 18,325 pounds
Answer: 20,575 pounds
Explanation:
Production needs in February are 20,600 units.
These take a pound of material to be made finished goods so 20,600 pounds are needed.
Raw material purchase = Total required + Closing inventory - Opening inventory
Closing inventory = 25% * March needs
= 25% * 19,300 = 4,825 pounds
Opening inventory = 25% * Feb needs
= 25% * 20,600 = 5,150 pounds
Raw materials purchase = 20,600 + 4,825 - 5,150
= 20,575 pounds
A firm has net working capital of $3,000, long-term debt of $9,500, total asset of $19,000, and fixed assets of $12,500. If the firm currently has $3,000 in retained earnings and $500 in Common Stock (Par Value), what is the amount of the firm's capital surplus/additional paid-in capital
Answer:
$2,500
Explanation:
Remember Accounting Equation : Assets = Equity + Liabilities.
Stated differently : Equity = Assets - Liabilities
But we first need to find the total amount of liabilities
Total Liabilities = Non Current Liabilities + Current Liabilities
Current Liabilities are not given. Hence we will use the Working Capital amount to calculate this.
Current Liabilities = Current Assets - Working Capital
= ($19,000 - $12,500) - $3,000
= $3,500
Thus
Total Liabilities = $9,500 + $3,500 = $13,000
Capital surplus/additional paid-in capital = Assets - Liabilities - Par Value Common Stock - Retained Earnings
= $19,000 - $13,000 - $3,000 - $500
= $2,500
Thus the firm's capital surplus/additional paid-in capital is $2,500
As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the spending multiplier: Increases, decreases, stays the sameIf the marginal propensity to consume is 0.70, then, assuming there are no taxes or imports, the multiplier is: (Note: round to the nearest tenth)Given the multiplier that you calculated, what is the total impact on spending when there is a $1,000 increase in government spending?
Answer:
(a) As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the spending multiplier Increases.
(b) Multiplier is 3.30.
(c) Total impact on spending is $3,300.
Explanation:
(a) As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the spending multiplier: Increases, decreases, stays the same.
In economics, the higher the MPC, the higher the spending multiplier.
Therefore, as the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the spending multiplier Increases.
(b) If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.70, then, assuming there are no taxes or imports, the multiplier is: (Note: round to the nearest tenth).
This can be calculated as follows:
Multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC) = 1 / (1 - 0.70) = 1 / 0.30 = 3.33333333333333
Rounding to the nearest tenth, we have:
Multiplier = 3.30
(c) Given the multiplier that you calculated, what is the total impact on spending when there is a $1,000 increase in government spending?
Total impact on spending = Increase in government spending * Multiplier = $1,000 * 3.30 = $3,300
The spending multiplier rises as the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) rises. 3.30 is the multiplier. The total financial impact is $3,300.
What is the total impact on spending?(a) The spending multiplier grows, declines, or remains constant when the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases.
The higher the MPC, the higher the spending multiplier in economics.
As a result, the spending multiplier rises as the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) rises.
(b) If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.70, the multiplier is: assuming no taxes or imports (Note: round to the nearest tenth).
Computation:
[tex]\text{Multiplier} = 1 / (1 - MPC) \\= 1 / (1 - 0.70) \\= 1 / 0.30 \\= 3.33333333333333[/tex]
If we round to the nearest tenth, we get: a 3.30 multiplier
(c) Given the multiplier you computed, what is the total impact on spending when government spending is increased by $1,000?
[tex]\text{Total impact on spending = Increase in government spending} \text{ x } \text{Multiplier}\\ = $1,000 \text { x } 3.30 = $3,300[/tex]

6. What are the three basic types business organizations? *
1.Sole Proprietors, Non Profits and Cooperatives
2.Corporations, Cooperatives and Franchise
3. Sole Proprietorships, Partnership and Cooperative
4.Sole Proprietorships, Partnership and Corporation
Answer:
4.Sole Proprietorships, Partnership and Corporation
Explanation:
A sole proprietorship is probably the most popular form of business ownership. It a business owned by a single individual. A sole proprietorship is simple to establish and operate. The owner does not require to consult anyone when making decisions. A sole proprietorship enjoys single layers of taxation, although the owner has unlimited liability to the business's debts.
When two or more friends or acquaintances combine efforts to create a business, they form a partnership. The partnership business is guided by agreements contained in the partnership deed. The agreement dictates each partner's role, the formula for sharing profits and losses, among other items. The income of a partnership is treated as the partners' income for taxation purposes.
A corporation is a complex business structure. Legally, a corporation is recognized as a distinct and separate entity from its owners. A corporation is a legal person with rights to trade, enter into contracts, own properties, and incur debts. As a business, the corporation is expected to file income tax returns.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics counts as employed people who work part-time, but would prefer to work full-time. Suppose the people who had part-time jobs, but wanted full-time jobs, were counted as unemployed. Explain how the unemployment rate and the labor force participation rate would change.
Answer:
The labor participation rate would not change because it counts the labor force as a percentage of the total adult population, and the labor force includes both the number of people employed and the number of people unemployed, so, even if those working part-time were counted as unemployed by the BLS, they would still be part of the Labor Force.
The labor participation rate formula is:
Labor Participation Rate = (Labor Force / Total Adult Population) x 100
The unemployment rate would indeed change, because it counts the number of unemployed as a percentage of the labor force. If those working part-time were counted as unemployed by the BLS, the number of people unemployed would obviously spike.
The formula is:
Unemployment Rate = (Number of Unemployed / Labor Force) x 100

= (0.12 × 0.9) + (0.25 × 0.1)
= 0.108 + 0.025
= 0.133
= 13.3%
Beta will be:
= (1.50 × 90%) + (2 × 10%)
= (1.50 × 0.9) + (2 × 0.1)
= 1.35 + 0.2
= 1.55

Explanation:
Consider an asset with a beta of 1.2, a risk-free rate of 4.4%, and a market return of 12.4%. What is the reward to risk ratio?
Answer: 8%
Explanation:
Reward to risk ratio = (Expected return - Risk free rate) / Beta
Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)
= 4.4% + 1.2 * (12.4% - 4.4%)
= 14%
Reward to risk ratio = (14% - 4.4%) / 1.2
= 8%
