Suppose that, in a competitive market without government regulations, the equilibrium price of milk is $2.50 per gallon, and employees at grocery stores earn $21.50 per hour. Indicate the following whether each of the statements is an example of a price ceiling or a price floor and whether it results in a shortage or a surplus or has no effect on the price and quantity that prevail in the market.

a. There are many teenagers who would like to work at grocery stores, but the minimum-wage law sets the hourly wage at $25.00.
b. The government has instituted a legal minimum price of $2.30 per gallon for milk.
c. The government prohibits grocery stores from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon.

Explanation:

at price ceiling we have price set at a maximum level. it cannot be raised beyond this level. At binding price ceiling, price would be set to be lower than what is the equilibrium price level.  a non binding price ceiling is set to be higher than equilibrium level.

At price floor, price is set to a particular minimum level.  It cannot fall lower than this. At binding price floor, price is higher than equilibrium price' at non binding price floor, it is set to be lower than equilibrium price level.

this expalnation should help us to answer this question.

(a) Many teenagers would like to work but minimum wage is set at 25.00 we have Price floor, Binding

(b) Government instituted legal minimum price of a gallon of milk at $2.30 we have Price floor, Non-binding

(c) if the Government prohibits from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon then we have Price ceiling, Binding

Amy and Mitchell share equally in the profits, losses, and capital of the accrual basis AM Products LLC. The LLC does not need to report financial information to any third parties, so capital accounts are determined using tax rules (rather than GAAP). Amy is a managing member of the LLC (treated as a general partner) and is a U.S. person. At the beginning of the current tax year, Amy's capital account has a balance of $960,000, and the LLC has debts of $624,000 payable to unrelated parties.

Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2: A double-blind experiment is performed to test whether a new drug is effective in lowering blood pressure. A random sample of subjects with high blood pressure is assigned to two groups. One group receives the new drug and the other group does not. Neither group is permitted to take any other medications during the experiment or to change their lifestyles in any way. The results of the experiment show that the drug is effective in lowering blood pressure.

Identify the experiment in which confounding occurs and the reason for its occurrence.

a. Neither experiment has a confounding variable.
b. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the fuel mixtures. Varying the fuel mixture could skew the results of the study and should be kept constant.
c. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the type of experiment. A double-blind experiment may increase the risk of the placebo effect and possibly skew the results.
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
e. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the subjects used. Choosing a sample of subjects with high blood pressure instead of individuals with different blood pressure levels may confuse the results.

Maintenance Personnel Printing Developing
Machine-hours ? 455 455 2,590
Labor-hours 315 ? 294 1,491

The following model is a simplified version of the multiple regression model used by Biddle and Hamermesh (1990) to study the tradeoff between time spent sleeping and working and to look at other factors affecting sleep:

sleep = β0 + β1totwrk + β2educ + β3age + u,

where sleep and totwrk (total work) are measured in minutes per week and educ and age are measured in years. (See also Computer Exercise.)

(i) If adults trade off sleep for work, what is the sign of β1?

(ii) What signs do you think β2 and β3 will have?

(iii) Using the data in SLEEP75.RAW, the estimated equation is

= 3,638.25 - .148 totwrk - 11.13 educ + 2.20 age n = 706, R2 = .113.

If someone works five more hours per week, by how many minutes is sleep predicted to fall? Is this a large tradeoff?

(iv) Discuss the sign and magnitude of the estimated coefficient on educ.

(v) Would you say totwrk, educ, and age explain much of the variation in sleep? What other factors might affect the time spent sleeping? Are these likely to be correlated with totwrk?

Use the data in SLEEP75.RAW from Biddle and Hamermesh (1990) to study whether there is a tradeoff between the time spent sleeping per week and the time spent in paid work. We could use either variable as the dependent variable. For concreteness, estimate the model

sleep =β0+ β1totwrk+u, where sleep is minutes spent sleeping at night per week and totwrk is total minutes worked during the week.

(i) Report your results in equation form along with the number of observations and R2. What does the intercept in this equation mean?

(ii) If totwrk increases by 2 hours, by how much is sleep estimated to fall? Do you find this to be a large effect?

Seiko’s current salary is $85,000. Her marginal tax rate is 32 percent and she fancies European sports cars. She purchases a new auto each year. Seiko is currently a manager for an Idaho Office Supply. Her friend, knowing of her interest in sports cars, tells her about a manager position at the local BMW and Porsche dealer. The new position pays only $75,000 per year, but it allows employees to purchase one new car per year at a discount of $15,000. This discount qualifies as a nontaxable fringe benefit. In an effort to keep Seiko as an employee, Idaho Office Supply offers her a $10,000 raise. Answer the following questions about this analysis.
Problem 12-41
Part a a. Assuming it has a 21 percent marginal tax rate, what is the annual after-tax cost to Idaho Office Supply to provide Seiko with the $10,000 increase in salary?

You have just been hired as a financial analyst for Barrington Industries. Unfortunately, company headquarters (where all of the firm's records are kept) has been destroyed by fire. So, your first job will be to recreate the firm's cash flow statement for the year just ended. The firm had $100,000 in the bank at the end of the prior year, and its working capital accounts except cash remained constant during the year. It earned $5 million in net income during the year but paid $750,000 in dividends to common shareholders. Throughout the year, the firm purchased $5.4 million of machinery that was needed for a new project. You have just spoken to the firm's accountants and learned that annual depreciation expense for the year is $450,000; however, the purchase price for the machinery represents additions to property, plant, and equipment before depreciation. Finally, you have determined that the only financing done by the firm was to issue long-term debt of $1 million at a 5% interest rate. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Open the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the question below.
What was the firm's end-of-year cash balance? Recreate the firm's cash flow statement to arrive at your answer. Write out your answer completely. For example, 5 million should be entered as 5,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar, if necessary.
