In the late 1990s, the United States experienced very high GDP growth, record low unemployment rates, and virtually nonexistent inflation. Based on the conclusions of the AD/AS model, this combination of good economic results can be explained by a __________.
a. rightward shift of the aggregate demand.
b. leftward shift of the aggregate demand.
c. rightward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.
d. leftward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. leftward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.

Explanation:

A smaller labor force would usually lead to a reflection in the leftward shift in both short run aggregate supply and potential GDP ( gross domestic product) of the economy. What this means is it would lead to a lower level of equilibrium with GDP ( gross domestic product) and a higher price level.

A company determined that the budgeted cost of producing a product is $30 per unit. On June 1, there were 86000 units on hand, the sales department budgeted sales of 370000 units in June, and the company desires to have 160000 units on hand on June 30. The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be

Answers

Answer:

The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be $ 13,320,000

Explanation:

Budgeted cost per unit = $30

Sales budget = 370,000 units

Less: Beginning inventory = 86,000 units

Add: Ending inventory = 160,000 units

Therefore budgeted cost of goods sold for June = (370,000 - 86,000 + 160,000) × $30

= 444,000 × $30

= $13,320,000

Answers

Answer:

$110.00

Explanation:

Nandina Corporation

The amount of amortization expenses for 2018

State fees for incorporation $800

Legal and accounting fees incident to organization 1,500

Temporary directors’ fees 1,000

Total $3,300

Hence:

$3,300/180 months x 6 months

= $110.00

Therefore the amount of its amortization expense for 2018 will be $110.00

You pay $20,800 to the Laramie Fund which has a NAV of $18.00 per share at the beginning of the year. The fund deducted a front-end load of 3.00%. The securities in the fund increased in value by 12% during the year. The fund's expense ratio is 1.50% and is deducted from year end asset values. What is your rate of return on the fund if you sell your shares at the end of the year

Answers

Answer:

6.92%

Explanation:

Beginning investment fund is $20,800.

Now, fund available= Beginning fund(1-front end load)

=20,800(1-0.03)=$20176

Now, the number of shares that can be brought with the available fund

[tex}\text{Number of shares}=\frac{\text{fund available}}{NAV_{beginning}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{20176}{18}[/tex]

=1120

Now calculating closing NAV

NAV(closing)=NAV(beginning)=(1+increased%)

=$18(1+12%)=18×1.12

=$20.16

Calculate year end asset value

Year end asset value =NAV(closing)×No. of shares

=$20.16×1120=$22579.2

Value of investment after deducting the expense ratio

Closing investment value = Year end asset value×(1-expense ratio)

=$22579.2×(1-1.5%)

=$22240.512

Now,

Return on the fund =[(closing investment value)-(Beginning investment fund)]÷Beginning investment fund

=(22240.512-20800)÷20800

=0.0692

or, 6.92%

Which of the following would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve right? a. both an increase in the capital stock and an increase in the price level b. an increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level c. an increase in the money supply, but not an increase in the capital stock d. neither an increase in the money supply nor an increase in the capital stock

Answers

Answer:

b. an increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level.

Explanation:

In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy movement from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.

An increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve right.

The long-run aggregate supply curve would shift rightward when immigration from foreign countries rises or technology improves.

When the price level rises, the wealth effect and the interest-rate effect provide incentives for consumers to spend less. The price level of goods and services in an economy influences the exchange rate, imports and exports

Total Equivalent Units                                              471,600       464,400

Transferred Out units are calculated by adding Opening Inventory and production started and subtracting ending inventory units.

Transferred Out units = Opening Inventory+ production started -ending inventory units

Transferred Out units =76,000 + 410,00 - 36000= 450000 units.

3. Cost of Ending Work In Process  $ 39528

Materials = 21600 * $ 1.33= $ 28728

Conversion = 14400 * $ 0.75=  $10800

We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.

4. Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 936,000

Materials = 450 000 * $ 1.33= $ 598,500

Total Costs                                  624,980**               348,300

The difference is in the cost of materials which is actually 624,980** and we found it out to be 627 228**  . This is because we rounded the Cost per Equivalent Unit of material from $ 1.325 to $1.33

If we multiply 1.325 *  471,600  we get $ 624870 which is almost the same.

$36.24

Explanation:

The computation of unit product cost is shown below:-

Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead) ÷ Unit completed

= ($59,400 + (1254 × $11) + (1254 × $37)) ÷ 3,300

= ($59,400 + $13,794 + $46,398) ÷ 3,300

= $119,592 ÷ 3,300

= $36.24

Therefore for computing the units product cost we simply applied the above formula.

n the Month of March, Chester Corporation received orders of 180 units at a price of $15.00 for their product Cid. Chester uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. Chester delivers 120 units in March and the balance of 60 units in April. They received payment for 60 units in March, 60 units in April, and 60 units in May. How much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order? How much in the April Income statement? (Answer in thousands)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Under accrual basis, revenue will recognize only after order delivered. so in march they didn't deliver any order. so income statement will report 0. in April they delivered 180 units. they can recognize a revenue of $15*180 = $2,700 in their April income statement.

So, answer will be. 0,  $2,700

A well-known financial writer argues that he can earn 148 percent per year buying wine by the case. Specifically, he assumes that he will consume one $12 bottle of fine Bordeaux per week for the next 12 weeks. He can either pay $12 per week or buy a case of 12 bottles today. If he buys the case, he receives a 9 percent discount and, by doing so, earns the 148 percent. Assume he buys the wine and consumes the first bottle today. Calculate the EAR.

Answers

Answer:

EAR = 148%

Explanation:

calculating the EAR ( applying the formula for present value of annuity )

cost of case = 12 * 12 * ( 1 - 0.09 ) = 131.04

Pv   =  131.04

cost per case =  $12

no of weeks = 12 weeks

rate of the wine per ( IRR ) = IRR(57;56;55;;;;1)=  1.76319

rate of the wine per week = 1.76319%

therefore EAR = ( 1 + 0.0176319) ^52 - 1 = 148.15% ≈ 148%

Vital Industries manufactured 1,200 units of its product Huge in the month of April. It incurred a total cost of $120,000 during the month. Out of this $120,000, $45,000 was the cost of direct materials used in the product and the rest was incurred because of the conversion cost involved in the process. Ryan had no opening or closing inventory. What will be the total cost per unit of the product, assuming conversion costs contained $10,000 of indirect labor

Answers

Bonnie Jo purchased a used camera (five-year property) for use in her sole proprietorship. The basis of the camera was $3,000. Bonnie Jo used the camera in her business 60 percent of the time and used it for personal purposes the rest of the time during the first year. Calculate Bonnie Jo's depreciation deduction during the first year, assuming the sole proprietorship had a loss during the year. (Bonnie did not place the property in service in the last quarter.)

Answers

Answer:

$360

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation deduction during the first year is shown below:

= Basis of the camera × given percentage × weightage

= $3,000 × 60% × 20%

= $360

Since the 60% is used for business and 40% used for personal

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P

(1) Canada:

- 1 / Ec = (21.4 - 1.20) / 21.4

- 1 / Ec = 20.2 / 21.4

- 1 / Ec = 0.9344

Ec = -1 / 0.9344

Ec = - 1.059

(2) Japan:

Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P

- 1 / Ej = (32 - 1.2) / 32

- 1 / Ej = 30.8 / 32

- 1 / Ej = 0.9625

Ej = -1 / 0.9625

Ej = - 1.039
