The number of jobs available in the U.S. economy is largely determined by the number of workers private firms choose to hire. In 2016, firms employed 124 million people. The Federal Reserve is part of the federal government and hires relatively few people, about 22,000 in 2016. Even if the Fed doubled or tripled its work force, it would have little impact on employment levels, yet economists strongly link actions of the Fed to the level of total employment in the economy. Carefully explain how the Fed is able to affect the level of total employment in the economy. Be sure to include all relevant actions the Fed can take in affecting total employment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Federal Reserve is in charge of the monetary policy in the United States. It expands or reduces the money supply (the total amount of money in the economy) by raising or lowering the interest rate.

There is a relationship, in the short run, between unemployment and money supply. The higher the money supply, the lower the unemployment rate, and viceversa: the lower the money supply, the higher the unemployment rate.

This relationship exists because when the money supply increases, the interest rate falls, if the interest rate falls, investing becomes cheaper, and as a result, firms invest more and hire more workers.

The opposite happens when the money supply is contracted: interest rates rise, investing becomes more expensive, and firms hire less people.

This is why the Fed has a great deal of power when it comes to employment in the economy.

The equal total payments pattern for installment notes consists of changing amounts of interest but constant amounts of principal over the life of the note.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

The equal total payments pattern for installment notes is when the regular payments on an installment note are always for the same amount. However, the amounts of interest and principal change over the life of the note because at the begining, most of the payment amount goes toward the interest and as you make payments your principal starts to decrease making the amount that goes toward the interest to decrease and the money that goes towards the principal to increase. According to that, the statement is false.

Bechtel Machinery stock currently sells for $65 per share. The market requires a 14 percent return on the firm's stock. The company maintains a constant 8 percent growth rate in dividends. What was the most recent annual dividend per share paid on this stock?

Answers

Answer:

The most recent annual dividend paid per share on the stock is $3.61

Explanation:

The current price of the stock can be calculated using the constant growth model of DDM. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.

The formula for the price of the stock today under the constant growth model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

D0 is the most recent dividend paidD0 * (1+g) is the dividend expected to be paid next periodr is the required rate of returng is the growth rate in dividends

To calculate the most recent annual dividend per share paid (D0), we use this formula for constant growth model and plug in the available values of all other variables.

65 = D0 * (1+0.08) / (0.14 - 0.08)

65 * (0.06) = D0 * (1.08)

3.9 / 1.08 = D0

D0 = $3.61

Remainder: 280,000 - 6,720 - 10,080 = 263,200

ratio:

Tyler 40% (2 / (2+3)) = 105280

Piper 60% (3 / (2+3)) = 157920

Total

Tyler: 105,280 + 6,720 = 112,00

Piper 157,920 + 10,080 = 168,000

with salaries:

280,000 - 36,000 - 48,000 = 196,000

equally divided in 98,000

Tyler 98,000 + 36,000 = 134,000

Piper 98,000 + 48,000 = 146,000

with slaries and interest:

112,000 x 6% =    6,720

168,000 x 6% =  10,080

280,000 - 6,720 - 10,080 - 36,000 - 48,000 = 179,200

Divided equally in 89,600

Tyler 89,600 + 6,720 + 36,000 = 132,320

Answers

Answer:

Net income= 561,506.25

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

sales of $1.67 million, cost of goods sold of $810,800, depreciation expenses of $175,000, and interest expenses of $89,575.

Tax= 35 percent

We need to determine the net income.

Sales= 1,670,000

COGS= (810,800)

Gross profit= 859,200

Depresiation= (175,000)

Interest= (89,575)

EBT= 594,625

Tax= (594,625*0.35)= (208,118.75)

Depreciation= 175,000

Net income= 561,506.25

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: splishy splashies, flopsicles, 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 splishy splashies decreases by 5%, the quantity of flopsicles sold increases by 4% and the quantity of mookies sold decreases by 6%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between splishy splashies 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 splishy splashies and flopsicles, and then between splishy splashies and kipples. In the second column, determine if splishy splashies 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 splishy splashie.

Demand Substitute Splashies
Flopsicles
Kipples

Answers

Answer:

please check the attached image for the table showing the answers

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

cross price elasticity = percentage in quantity demanded  / percentage change in price

cross-price elasticity between splishy splashies and flopsicles = 4% / 5% = 0.8

cross-price elasticity between splishy splashies and kipples = 6% / 5% = 1.2

because the cross price elasticity of demand between splishy splashies and flopsicles is 0.8, they are complement goods and should be advertised together.

because the cross price elasticity of demand between plishy splashies and  is 1.2, they are substitute goods and should not be advertised together

Answers

Answer:

d. $1,080

Explanation:

The computation of the net operating working capital that was financed by investors is shown below:

= Total current assets - account payable - accrued wages and taxes

= $1,800 - $575 - $145

= $1,080

By deducting the account payable and accrued wages from the total current assets we can calculate the net operating working capital and the same is to be considered

What program is used to determine​ employee's bonuses? A. time series B. exponential smoothing C. regression D. weighted moving averages

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: D. weighted moving averages

Explanation:

To determine employee bonuses, companies use the weighted moving average program.

This is an indicator that works using a calculation that ensures greater relevance to recent data, that is, there is a weighting factor that ensures that weights are differentiated, since it uses the multiplication of factors to differentiate weights in relation to different data.

So it is the ideal program for averaging employee bonuses.

The price elasticity of supply for basmati rice (an aromatic strain of rice) is likely to be which of the following?
A. High in both the long run and the short run, because the inputs required to produce basmati rice can easily be duplicated.
B. Low in both the long and short runs, because rice farming requires only unskilled labor.
C. High, because consumers have a lot of other kinds of rice and other staple foods to choose from.
D. Higher in the long run than the short run, because farmers cannot easily change their decisions about how much basmati rice to plant once the current crop has been planted.

Answers

Answer: D. Higher in the long run than the short run, because farmers cannot easily change their decisions about how much basmati rice to plant once the current crop has been planted.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Supply refers to how Supply changes in response to a change in price. Essentially, if the price of a good increases, will Supplier supply more or less of that good as a result and by how much will they do so.

In the short run, the farmers would have already planted the crops and so would be unable start changing the quantity that they expect from the harvest. They will therefore supply the amount they harvested regardless of a price change.

In the long run however, they can change the amount of rice planted depending on the price of the rice in the market. Price Elasticity is therefore higher in the long run than in the short run.

Aldo Redondo drives his own car on company business. His employer reimburses him for such travel at the rate of 36 cents per mile. Aldo estimates that his fixed costs per year such as taxes, insurance, and depreciation are $2,200. The direct or variable costs such as gas, oil, and maintenance average about 14.4 cents per mile.
How many miles must he drive to break even? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Roundup your answer to the next whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

10,185 miles

Explanation:

The computation of the break even miles is shown below:

As we know that

Break even units is

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= ($2,200) ÷ (36 cents per mile - 14.4 cents per mie)

= $2,200 ÷ 21.6 cents per mile

= $2,200 ÷ 0.216

= 10,185 miles

We simply applied the above formula so that the break even point in units could come and the same is to be considered

Answers

The group of answer choices are missing. Following is the complete question.

A 3-year bond with a 10% coupon rate and $1000 face value yield-to-maturity of 8%. Assuming annual coupon payments, calculate the price of the bond.  Group of answer choices

A. $857.96

B. $951.96

C. $1000.00

D. $1051.54

Answer:

The answer is d. $1051.54

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. The bonds are annual bonds so the coupon payment is per year.

Coupon Payment = 1000 * 0.10  = $100

Total periods = 3

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 100 * [( 1 - (1+0.08)^-3) / 0.08]  +  1000 / (1+0.08)^3

Bond Price = $1051.54

Answers

Answer:

Ending WIP= $546,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning work in process inventory $190,000

Cost of goods manufactured 214,000

Total manufacturing costs 570,000

To calculate the ending work in process, we need to use the following formula:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

214,000= 190,000 + 570,000 - Ending WIP

Ending WIP= $546,000

Buckeye Incorporated has operating income of $ 434,000​, a sales margin of 7​%, and a capital turnover rate of 2. What amount would Buckeye report for​ sale

Answers

Answer:

The amount Buckeye would report for​ sale is $6,200,000.

Explanation:

Sale refers to income or revenue that a company got by selling its goods or providing its services.

In accounting ratio analysis, sales margin is obtained by dividing the operating profit by sale. Therefore, the formula for sales margin can be written as follows:

Sales margin = Operating income / Sale ................... (1)

To obtain Sale, we can substitute the figures for sales margin and operating profit from the question into equation (1) and then solve for sale as follows:

7% = $434,000​ / Sale

Sale * 7% = $434,000

Sale = $434,000 / 7%

Sale = $6,200,000

Therefore, the amount Buckeye would report for​ sale is $6,200,000.

Company F purchased 40% of the outstanding stock of company K on June 30, 20XX. Both of the companies have a December 31st, year end. Company K is a publicly traded company and reports its net income to company F. Company K also pays a hefty dividend to the shareholders of company F. How should company F report the above facts on its December 31, 20XX balance sheet and income statement

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Within the U.S. GAAP, Company F is an owner owning greater than 20 percent but smaller than or equivalent to 50 percent of Company K's stock and is thus considered to have the right to exercise considerable control on Company K's financial affairs.

According to the GAAP, there is nothing exist explicit information that there is no substantial impact.

Company F will use the EQUITY method to compensate for all assets in the 20 to 50 percent ownership range.

Within this approach,

Business F will pass the following journal entry on the purchase of shares in K:

Particulars                               Debit                     Credit

Investment In K Dr,              XXXXXX

           To Cash                                                    XXXXXX

(Being cash paid is recorded)

For recording this we debited the investment as it increased the assets and credited the cash as it decreased the assets

If Company K declares net income in Dec 20XX, Company F will instantly recognize its share of income for the proportionate period of keeping the 40 percent (that is 6 months net income) by way of a journal entry is shown below: (Total net income of K × 40 percent × 6 ÷ 12)

Particulars                               Debit                     Credit

Investment in K Dr,                XXXXXX

           To Investment Income -Co. K                   XXXXXX

(Being the investment is recorded)

For recording this we debited the investment as it increased the assets and credited the investment income as it also increased the income

If Company K pays dividends to company owners F

The investment account reduces by the amount of cash dividend earned, and the below entry must be passed on to F's books:

Particulars                               Debit                     Credit

Cash Dr,                                  XXXXXX

        To Investment in K                                      XXXXXX

(Being the cash is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the investment as it decreased the assets

Once Company F sells shown above investment it makes a clear entry:

Particulars                               Debit                     Credit

Cash Dr,                                  XXXXXX

       To Investment in K                                        XXXXXX

(Being the cash is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the investment as it decreased the assets

The investment carrying value come by

= Purchase price + Net income accrued - Dividends received

Any balance shall be debited in respect of losses on the selling of investment in K-equity securities or  Credited to Investment in K -Equity Securities Gain on Sale

So this amount of investment in other companies' equity (40 percent), includes forwarding the above-mentioned journal entries, in the buying company's accounts.

Suppose a monopoly firm produces a medical device and can sell 15 items per month at a price of $2,000 each. In order to increase sales by one item per month, the monopolist must lower the price of its medical device by $100 to $1,900. The marginal revenue of the 16th item is: Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer: $400

Explanation:

Marginal Revenue is the revenue that is added by one additional unit.

When the product was selling at $2,000 it sold 15 units meaning the total revenue was;

= 2,000 * 15

= $30,000

When the product started selling for $1,900 it would be able to sell 16 units so the total Revenue is;

= 16 * 1,900

= $30,400

The difference in total Revenue is as a result of 1 extra unit, the 16th unit which contributed an amount of;

= 30,400 - 30,000

= $400
