Assume that a hypothetical economy with an MPC of 0.75 is experiencing severe recession. Instructions: In part a, round your answers to 2 decimal places. Enter positive numbers. In part b, enter your answers as whole numbers. a. By how much would government spending have to rise to shift the aggregate demand curve rightward by $25 billion? $ billion. How large a tax cut would be needed to achieve the same increase in aggregate demand? $ billion. b. Determine one possible combination of government spending increases and tax increases that would accomplish the same goal without changing the amount of outstanding debt (because it maintains a balanced budget, G = T).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a-1. Amount of rise in government expenditure required = $6.25 billion

a-2. Tax multiplier = -3

b. The combination is as follows:

Increase in spending = $25 billion

increase in taxes = $25 billion

Explanation:

a-1. By how much would government spending have to rise to shift the aggregate demand curve rightward by $25 billion? $ billion.

Spending multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC) = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 4

Amount of rise in government expenditure required = Change in aggregate demand / Spending multiplier = $25 / 4 = $6.25 billion

a-2. How large a tax cut would be needed to achieve the same increase in aggregate demand? $ billion.

Tax multiplier = - MPC / (1 - MPC) = - 0.75 / (1 - 0.75) = -3

Amount of tax cut required = Change in aggregate demand / Tax multiplier = $25 / (-3) = $8.33 billion

b. Determine one possible combination of government spending increases and tax increases that would accomplish the same goal without changing the amount of outstanding debt (because it maintains a balanced budget, G = T).

The amount is the amount of the balanced budget, which has a multiplier of one. This indicates that spending and taxes need be increased by $25 billion each to boost GDP by $125 billion. Therefore, the combination is as follows:

Increase in spending = $25 billion

increase in taxes = $25 billion

Boats and Bait has 78,000 shares outstanding that sell for a price of $74 per share. The stock has a par value of $2 per share. The company's balance sheet shows capital surplus of $185,000 and retained earnings of $225,000. If the company declares a stock dividend of 17.5 percent, what is the new common stock value on the balance sheet?

Answers

Answer:

$183,300

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Value of common stock value on the balance sheet prior to the stock dividend is

= No of stock outstanding ×  Face value per share

= 78,000 × $2

= $156,000

Now  

New shares to be issued is

= 78,000 ×  0.175

= 13,650 shares

So,  

Total shares outstanding after stock issue is

= 78,000 + 13,650

= 91,650 shares

Now the value of common stock after stock dividend is

= 91,650  × $2

= $183,300

NetonBe makes sweaters, which traditionally involved the following steps: dyeing (i.e., into six different colors), knitting of the dyed fabric into three sizes each (small, medium, and large) and then distributing to the stores. As such, there were 18 different sweater color & size combinations in the end, each with a demand that is normally distributed with a mean of 1,000 and a standard deviation of 100. NetonBe has just developed a new system that allows them to knit a generic color sweater first, and then dyeing this generic sweater. As such, they only need to hold safety inventory for the three sizes, each with an average demand of 6,000. What would be the standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters?
a) Approximately 600
b) Approximately 300
c) Approximately 245
d) Approximately 60

Answers

Answer:

NetonBe

The standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters is:

a) Approximately 600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Different sweater color & size combinations in the end = 18

Normally distributed demand mean of size = 1,000

Total demand of sizes = 18,000

Standard deviation of each size = 100

Standard deviation = 10% of mean (100/1,000 * 100)

Standard deviation for the total sizes = 1,800 (18,000 * 10%)

Average demand of new three sizes = 6,000

Total demand for the three new sizes = 18,000 (6,000 * 3)

Therefore, the standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters will be = 600 (6,000 * 10%)

Answers

Answer: $151,000

Explanation:

The fair value of the equipment is the amount that was less than the fair value of land by the amount of cash that the equipment owner had to pay to complete the transaction:

Fair value of equipment = Fair value of land - Cash paid by owner of equipment

= 172,000 - 21,000

= $151,000

Why is keeping a journal about what is good and bad regarding your summer or part-time work a good idea to help you choose a career path

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Keeping a journal about what is good and bad regarding my summer or part-time work is a good idea to help me choose a career path because writing down what I like and what I dislike, I can get a pretty close idea of the things I enjoy and have more skills to perform, compared to the things I do not like or I have no abilities at all.

If a clearly identify my skills and abilities in the workplace during the summer, it will be easier for me to identify what could be the profession I love or at least, what I am attracted to.

As it is difficult to remember all the work experience by memory, writing the journal will help me to remember exact dates, specific activities that I enjoyed or were interesting, and what was not.

Answers

Answer:

the agricultural market e.g market for oranges

2. A firm earns zero economic profit when accounting profit equals implicit cost.

it means that they only earn accounting profit

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.

In an agricultural market e.g. market for oranges, the goods are identical and the prices are the same.

A firm earns economic profit when accounting profit equals implicit cost. So, it only earns accounting profit

The following data are available for product no. CK74, manufactured and sold by Ruby Corporation:

Required:
The number of units of CK74 that Ruby must sell to break- even is:________.
a. 12,900.
b. 4,577.
c. 7,095.
d. 6,050.

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 12,900

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total fixed cost (per period) $ 851,400

Variable cost per unit $ 120.00

Sales price per unit $ 186.00

To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 851,400 / (186 - 120)

Break-even point in units= 12,900

Answer: 12900

Explanation:

From the information given, we'll first calculate the contribution per unit which will be:

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

= $186 - $120

= $ 66

Then, the break even sales in units will be: = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit

= 851,400 / 66

= 12,900

Therefore, the breakeven is 12900

Required:Find the WACC.

Answers

Answer:

8.02 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the the cost required by holders of permanent source of capital pooled together.

WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of  Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

where,

Cost of Equity (CAPM) = 4 % + 1.08 x 7.5 %

                                     = 12.10 %

Cost of Preferred Stock = 5%

Cost of Debt :

PMT = ($1,000 x 5.5%) ÷ 2 = $27.50

N = 19 x 2 = 38

PV = $1,000 x 104 % = - $1,040

P/YR = 2

FV = $1,000

I/YR = ??

Using a Financial calculator the YTM (which is the cost of debt) is 5.17 %

But,

We use after tax cost of debt.

After tax cost of debt = 5.17 % x (1 - 0.31) = 3.57%

also

Total Market Value = $5,720,000 + $7,700,000 + $1,961,000 = $15,381,000

Weight of Equity  = 0.50

Weight of  Preferred Stock = 0.13

Weight of Debt = 0.37

therefore,

WACC = 12.10 % x 0.50 + 5% x 0.13 + 3.57% x 0.37

           = 8.02 %

The management of Wheeler Company has decided to develop cost formulas for its major overhead activities. Wheeler uses a highly automated manufacturing process, and power costs are a significant manufacturing cost. Cost analysts have decided that power costs are mixed; thus, they must be broken into their fixed and variable elements so that the cost behavior of the power usage activity can be properly described. Machine hours have been selected as the activity driver for power costs. The following data for the past eight quarters have been collected:

Quarter Machine Hours Power Cost
1 20,000 $26,000
2 25,000 $38,000
3 30,000 $42,500
4 22,000 $37,000
5 21,000 $34,000
6 18,000 $29,000
7 24,000 $36,000
8 28,000 $40,000

Using the high and low points (i.e., the high-low method), compute a power cost formula. (Note: Round variable rate to three decimal places.)

Total power cost = $_______ + ( $________ x Number of machine hours )

Answers

Answer:

Total power cost= 1,250 + 1.375 * number of machine hours

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Quarter Machine Hours Power Cost

1 20,000 $26,000

2 25,000 $38,000

3 30,000 $42,500

4 22,000 $37,000

5 21,000 $34,000

6 18,000 $29,000

7 24,000 $36,000

8 28,000 $40,000

To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (42,500 - 26,000) - (30,000 - 18,000)

Variable cost per unit= $1.375

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 42,500 - (1.375*30,000)

Fixed costs= 1,250

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 26,000 - (1.375*18,000)

Fixed costs= 1,250
