Keynes revolutionized economic theory by changing the explanation for what causes economic growth from aggregate _______ to aggregate _______.

a. demand; supply
b. supply; demand
c. cost; inflation
d. GDP; income

Answers

Answer:

b. supply; demand

Explanation:

Before Keynes, classical economists thought that aggregate supply was more important than aggregate demand in determining the overall economic level of a country. This was mainly because of the belief in say's law: the law stated that every offer creates its own deamand.

Keynes changed economics because he stated that demand and supply do not always reach equilibrium, and that demand is often insufficient, and it is the government job to stimulate demand through expansionary monetary and fiscal policy, like lowering interest rates and cutting taxes.

Gabriella, a single taxpayer, has wage income of $160,000. In addition, she has $7,000 in long-term capital losses, $1,000 in long-term capital gains, $3,000 in short-term capital gains, and $1,000 in short-term losses. What is Gabriella's AGI for 2017?a. $157,000.
b. $160,000.
c. $156,000.
d. $161,000.

Answers

Answer:

c. $156,000

Explanation:

Adjusted gross income = Wage income + Long-term capital gains + Short-term capital gains - Long-term capital losses - Short-term losses

Adjusted gross income = $160,000 + $1,000 + $3,000 - $7,000 - $1,000

Adjusted gross income = $156,000

Thus, Gabriella's AGI for 2017 is $156,000

Zebco Inc is evaluating a project that has a cost of $1,000 and will produce end-of-year net cash inflows of $500 per year for 3 years. The required rate of return for this project's is 10 percent. The difference between the project's IRR and its MIRR is closest to:_________.
a. 5.09%
b. ​5.75%
c. ​4.31%

Answers

Answer:

a. 5.09%

Explanation:

initial outlay = -$1,000

cash flow 1 = $500

cash flow 2 = $500

cash flow 3 = $500

the simplest way to determine the IRR and MIRR is to use an excel spreadsheet and the IRR and MIRR functions:

IRR = 23.38%

in order to us the MIRR formula, we must use the 10% rate as both financing and reinvestment rates.  

MIRR = 18.29%

difference between them = 23.38% - 18.29% = 5.09%

Assume that the risk-free rate is 4% and the required return on the market is 11%. What is the required rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.9

Answers

Answer:

24.9%

Explanation:

Risk free rate is 4%

Required return on the market is 11%

Beta is 1.9

Therefore the required rate of return on a stock can be calculated as follows

= 4% + 1.9×11

= 4% + 20.9

= 24.9%

Hence the required rate of return on a stick is 24.9%

Answers

Answer:

Stenson, Inc.

The payback period for each project is:

Project A = 3 years

Project B = 4 years

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year            Cash Flow A        Cash Flow B

0                  –$ 64,000           –$ 109,000

1                        26,500                  28,500

Total inflow  $103,900               $318,500

b) The payback period is the time when the cash outflow is recouped.  For project A, the payback period occurs in year 3.  For project B, the payback period occurs in year 4.  Based on the company's cutoff of three years, Project B may not be accepted even with its large cash inflow in year 4.  Therefore, the best decision will be to discount the cash inflows with a suitable rate of interest.  This will help Stenson, Inc. to decide between accepting Project A or Project B.

A simple random sample of 700 individuals provides 200 Yes responses. a. What is the point estimate of the proportion of the population that would provide Yes responses (to 2 decimals)? b. What is your estimate of the standard error of the proportion (to 4 decimals)? c. Compute the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion (to 4 decimals).

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

A. The point estimate of individuals that would provide yes responses is the sample proportion. The sample proportion is calculated by dividing number of yes responses by sample size:

p = x/n = 200/700= 0.2857

B. The standard error of the population is the square root of the product of the point estimate and it's complement divided by the sample size given by

√p(1-p)/n

=√0.2857(1-0.2857)/700= 0.0170

C. For confidence level 95%, z score is calculated 1-0.95= 0.05/2= 0.025

Z score checked under the table = 1.96

Boundaries=

P-1.96 *standard error and p+1.96 *standard error

= 0.2857-1.96*0.0170= -0.25238

=0.2857+1.96*0.0170= 0.31902

When evaluating an investment, the MNC should consider the ____________ cash flows generated by the project.

a. total
b. variable
c. incremental

Answers

Answer: c. Incremental

Explanation:

Simply put incremental cashflow is the additional cashflow that accrues to a company when it takes on a new project. The Multinational company should therefore consider this when they are accepting a project.

If the new project has a positive incremental cashflow, it will add to the cashflows of the company and so should be initiated as opposed to those with negative incremental cashflows.

A stock has the following returns over three consecutive years: 85%, 58%, and 128%. What is the arithmetic average?

Answers

Answer:

The stock's arithmetic average is:

90.33%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Returns over three consecutive years:

Year 1 =   85%

Year 2 =  58%

Year 3 = 128%

Total returns = 271%

Average = Total returns divided by number of years

= 271/3

= 90.333

=90.33%

b) The arithmetic average is the total returns divided by the number of years involved.  This implies that we find the average or the mean by adding up some pieces of data together and dividing by the number of the pieces of data.

Knowledge Check 01 An unfavorable variance of $5,000 in cost of goods sold is determined by comparing the actual results (10,000 units) and the flexible budget (10,000 units). What type of variance is described?a. Activity variance b. Spending variance c. Revenue variance

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is b. Spending variance.

Explanation:

Spending variance can be described as the difference between the actual cost and budgeted cost at the actual activity level.

Since cost of goods sold (COGS) is the direct costs incurred to produce the goods that is sold by a firm, it therefore implies that the amount of variance in cost of goods sold can be determined by comparing the actual results and the flexible budget at the actual activity level or actual units.

Based on the explanation above, the correct option is b. Spending variance. That is, Spending variance is an unfavorable variance of $5,000 in cost of goods sold is determined by comparing the actual results (10,000 units) and the flexible budget (10,000 units).

With a planned volume of 15,000 units, the master budget includes variable costs of $450,000 and fixed costs of $350,000. If the actual volume is 12,000 units, the total costs under flexible budget should be:__________a. $490,000.b. $560,000.c. $650,000.d. $710,000.

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $710,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

15,00 units:

Fixed costs= $350,000

Total variable cost= $450,000

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:

Unitary variable cost= 450,000 / 15,000

Unitary variable cost= $30

Now, the total cost for 12,000 units:

Total cost= 350,000 + 30*12,000

Total cost= $710,000

A $20,000, 90-day, 8% note payable was issued on November 1, 2015. Using a 360-day year, what is the amount of accrued interest on December 31, 2015?

Answers

Answer:

$267

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount of accrued interest on December 31, 2015

Accrued interest=20,000 x 8% x 60 days/360 days

Accrued interest= $267

Note that November 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015 will gives us 60 days while 360 days represent the number of days in a year

Therefore the amount of accrued interest on December 31, 2015 will be $267

You want to invest $50,000 in a portfolio with a beta of no more than 1.4 and an expected return of 12.4%. Bay Corp. has a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 11.2%, and City Inc. has a beta of 1.8 and an expected return of 14.8%. The risk-free rate is 4%. You can invest in Bay Corp. and City Inc. How much will you invest in each?

Answers

Answer:

Assume the weight to be invested in Bay Corp is x. That means (1 - x) will be the weight for City Inc. The expression for the expected return will be;

(x * 11.2%) + ( (1 - x) * 14.8%) = 12.4%

0.112x + 0.148 - 0.148x = 0.124

-0.036x = -0.024

x = 0.67

Portfolio beta is;

= 0.67 * 1.2 + ( 1 - 0.67) * 1.8

= 1.398 so beta condition is satisfied.

Amount in Bay Corp.;

= 0.67 * 50,000

= $33,500

Amount in City Inc.;

= 50,000 - 33,500

= $16,500

The amounts that will be invested in Bay Corp. and City Inc. will be $33500 and $16500.

Let the weight invested in Bay Corp be x.Therefore the weight invested in City Inc. will be 1 - x.

Therefore, the equation to solve the question will be:

( x × 11.2%) + [(1 - x) × 14.8%)] = 12.4%

Open the brackets

0.112x + 0.148 - 0.148x = 0.124

Collect like terms

-0.036x = -0.024

x = -0.024 / 0.036

x = 0.67

The portfolio beta will be:

= 0.67 * 1.2 + ( 1 - 0.67) × 1.8

= 1.398 .

Therefore, the amount invested in Bay Corp will be:

= 0.67 × $50,000

= $33,500

Therefore, the amount in City Inc. will be:

= $50,000 - $33,500

= $16,500
