This budget type changes in value as a result of the changes in the volume of activity. It is different from a static budget, which does not change in value following the level of activity and does not account for changing incomes and expenses.
An investment had a nominal return of 11.1 percent last year. If the real return on the investment was only 7.3 percent, what was the inflation rate for the year
Answer:
inflation rate= 3.8%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Nominal return= 11.1 percent
Real return= 7.3 percent
The real return on investments is the difference between the nominal return and the inflation rate.
Real return= nominal return - inflation rate
inflation rate= nominal return - real return
inflation rate= 11.1 - 7.3
inflation rate= 3.8%
Why Does Marketing Matter?
Answer:
Marketing matters because it educates, builds awareness and establishes initial connections.
Explanation:
"A firm's peak borrowing needs will probably be overstated if it bases its monthly cash budget on the assumption that both cash receipts and cash payments occur uniformly over the month but in reality receipts are concentrated at the beginning of each month." True or False
Answer: True
Explanation:
If the firm borrows on the assumption that it will be receiving cash throughout the month this means that they are borrowing because they would like to offset costs as they come in then pay as they receive money.
If they however receive all the money that they were to receive for the month in the beginning of the month, there would be no need to borrow as much to offset costs because the money received will act as a reserve which will offset the payments that will be uniform throughout the month.

The potential sources of noise and bias in accounting data are: Group of answer choices Rigidity in accounting rules Random forecast errors Systematic reporting choices made by corporate manager to achieve specific objectives All of the above None of the above
Answer: All of the above
Explanation:
Accounting data can have bias or data that should not necessarily be included due to a couple of factors.
Accounting rules are too rigid because when they are applied, the Accountants will ibe unable to remove the noise and entries made by Management without removing a substantial part of Accounting records. There is need for more flexible rules so that Accountants can restrict how easily Management can introduce bias.
Accounting works a lot of forecasted information and it is impossible to make completely accurate forecasts as events can simply happen out of nowhere and disrupt operations. Also there is Human error in the forecasts so this can lead to noise and bias.
Finally, Accounting bias and noise can be linked to pressure from Corporate management to report data in a certain way for a myriad of reasons such as to improve management benefits if they are performance related, to avoid taxes, and to avoid Government regulations amongst others.
You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: guppy gummies, frizzles, and mookies. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of frizzles sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of mookies sold increases by 5%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together. Complete the first column of the following table by computing the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and frizzles, and then between guppy gummies and mookies. In the second column, determine if guppy gummies are a complement to or a substitute for each of the goods listed. Finally, complete the final column by indicating which good you should recommend marketing with guppy gummies. Relative to Guppy Gummies Recommend Marketing with Guppy Gummies Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand Complement or Substitute Frizzles Mookies
Answer:
Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is a measure of the complimentary or substitutional nature of two goods. It enables one to know if goods go together or are replacements for each other.
When the Cross Price Elasticity is Positive then both of the goods are Substitutes.
This is because when the price of one increased, some people abandoned it and went to the other one which then increased the demand of the latter.
If the Cross Price Elasticity is negative then both the goods are compliments because when the price of one increased, people decided to stop buying it and because the other good is a compliment (goes together) people didn't buy the latter either thereby reducing its demand.
The formula for Cross Price Elasticity is,
= % Change in Quantity Demanded of Good A / % Change in price of Good B
Guppy Gummies and Frizzles.
= -4%/ 5%
= - 0.8%
Cross Price Elasticity is Negative so they are Compliments.
It IS RECOMMENDED to market Frizzles with Guppy Gummies.
Guppy gummies and Mookies
= 5% / 5%
= 1
Cross Price Elasticity is positive so these are Substitutes.
It is therefore NOT recommended to market Mookies with Guppy Gummies.

An investor buys a 10-year, 7% coupon bond for $1,050, holds it for 1 year, and then sells it for $1,040. What was the investor's rate of return?
Answer:
The answer is 5.71%
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
Coupon rate = 7%
Bond = $1050
Sale of the bond = $1040
n = 10 years, n = 1 year
Now we find the investor's rate of return
Thus
Coupon payment = 7%* 1000
=70
1050 = 70/(1+r) + $1,040/(1+r)
r= 5.71%
Therefore the rate of return of the investor is 5.71%
or
Rate of return = (P1-P0+ Interest ) /P0
= (1040 -1050 + 70 )/1050
= .0571 or 5.71%
We argued that when the economic growth in the US is greater than the (economic) growth rates of our trading partners, the trade deficit in the US should get larger, all else constant.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: False.
Explanation:
To begin with, given the fact that the economic growth of the United States is greater than the economic growth rates of its trading partners then the trade deficit in the US should get smaller, all else constant due to the fact that the economy is growing at a level that is higher than does of the partners and therefore that when that happens the country will be in a better position and the production of it will increase as expected and that will impact positively in the deficit by reducing it to small amounts.

Frances is a retired teacher who lives in Denver and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $50 per hour, she is willing to work 10 hours per week. At $65 per hour, she is willing to work 19 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Jake’s labor supply between the wages of $50 and $65 per hour is approximately _______ , which means that Jake’s supply of labor over this wage range is ______ .
Answer:
Midpoint elasticity = 2.38
Supply of labor is Elastic
Explanation:
Midpoint elasticity = (Change in labor supplied / Average labor supplied) / (Change in wage rate / Average wage rate)
When Change in labor supplied= 19-10=9
Average labor supplied=(19+10)/2 =14.5
Change in wage rate=65-50=15
Average wage rate =(65 + 50)/2=57.5
Midpoint elasticity = (9/14.5) / (15/57.5)
= 0.62/0.26
= 2,3846
= 2.38
Since elasticity is higher than 1, supply of labor is Elastic.

If the average market price for an item is higher than the equilibrium price,
which of the following is likely to take place?
A. The price will increase drastically.
B. Supply and demand will be equal.
C. Consumers will buy all of the product supply and not be satisfied.
D. More product will be produced than consumers want to purchase.
Answer:
D. More product will be produced than consumers want to purchase.
Explanation:
The supply curve for any good slopes upward: the higher the price, the more quantity is produced.
The demand curve for any good slopes downward: the higher the price, the less quantity is produced.
For this reason, if the average market price is higher than the equilibrium price (the equilibrium price is the price where supply and demand are equal), then, supply will be higher than demand, because producers will be enticed by the higher price.
However, this supply will not meed demand, creating excess output, or excess supply.

By contacting the lender's representative, the purpose for obtaining the loan will be confirmed whether the property being financed is an investment property or for a primary residency otherwise the notary signing agent will be held responsible for any infraction if his signature is appended because he is expected to verify the authenticity of the information provided.
