Refer to Exhibit 4-3. Suppose that the government imposes a price ceiling at a price of $12. The result would be a ________________ of _____________ units of good Z.
Answer:
The correct option is c. shortage, 70. That is, the result would be a shortage of 70 units of good Z.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Exhibit 4-3
PRICE OF GOOD Z:
$10 // QD: 300 // QS: 160
$12 // QD: 250 // QS: 180
$14 // QD: 200 // QS: 200
$16 // QD: 150 // QS: 220
Refer to Exhibit 4-3. Suppose that the government imposes a price ceiling at a price of $12. The result would be a ________________ of _____________ units of good Z.
a. surplus, 70
b. surplus, 20
c. shortage, 70
d. shortage, 20
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
A price ceiling can be described as a maximum price set by the government whereby it is illegal to sell the good above it. A price ceiling will cause a product shortage if it is set below the product's equilibrium price.
Equilibrium price is the price at which quantity demanded (QD) is equal to the quantity supplied (QS).
From Exhibit 4-3, QD is equal to QS is equal to 200 at the price of $14. This implies that the ceiling price of $12 imposed by the government is below the equilibrium price.
Based Exhibit 4-3. the units of shortage of goods Z at $12 can be calculated as follows:
Units of shortage of goods Z at the price of $12 = QD at the price of $12 – QS at the price of $12 = 250 - 180 = 70 units
Therefore, the correct option is c. shortage, 70. That is, the result would be a shortage of 70 units of good Z.

Contrary to popular opinion, CEOs of major U.S. companies come from a wide variety of private universities and state universities, not just a handful of well-publicized MBA programs. What does this fact tell you about sources of power and organizational politics
Answer: Power is earned
Explanation:
The fact that so many influential CEOs come from such a wide array of universities shows that they had to work to get to where they are today and were not simply handed positions because of the university they came from.
It shows that if one wants to succeed in business, their alma mater does not matter. They could be from an Ivy league college or from a state college in Mississippi, what matters is their determination to work hard and gain a good track record that will take them all the way to the top.
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).
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

The weekly total cost of baking pies at Tasty Tortes is given by TC = 0.01 Q 1.5. Tasty’s marginal cost of producing 10,000 pies a week is:
Answer: $1.50
Explanation:
TC = 0.01Q⁰.⁵
You get marginal cost when you differentiate the total cost.
MC = dTC / dQ
= 1.5 * 0.01 * Q¹.⁵ ⁻ ¹
= 0.015 * Q⁰.⁵
When Q is 10,000, the marginal cost is:
= 0.015 * 10,000⁰.⁵
= $1.50
1-a. How much will net operating income increase (decrease) per month if the monthly advertising budget increases by $8,400, the monthly sales volume increases by 100 units, and the total monthly sales increase by $9,500? 1-b. Should the advertising budget be increased?
Answer:
a. Income before advertising budget increase:
= Contribution margin - Fixed costs
= (38 * 3,600) - 79,000
= $57,800
Income after advertising budget increases:
= Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses
Sales = (3,600 + 100 units) * 95 per unit
= $351,500
Variable expenses = 60% * 351,500
= $210,900
Fixed expenses = 79,000 + 8,400 advertising
= $87,400
Income = 351,500 - 210,900 - 87,400
= $53,200
b. Income decreased with the increase in advertising so Advertising budget should not be increased.
In 2019, Teller Company sold 3,000 units at $600 each. Variable expenses were $420 per unit, and fixed expenses were $270,000. The same selling price, variable expenses, and fixed expenses are expected for 2020. What is Teller’s break-even point in units for 2020? g
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 1,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $600
Unitary variable cost= $420
Fixed cost= $270,000
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 270,000 / (600 - 420)
Break-even point in units= 1,500
The quantity demanded for money is higher in Japan than in the United States because: telecommunications and information technology is more advanced in the United States than in Japan. Japanese interest rates are higher than those in the United States. Japanese interest rates are lower than those in the United States. Japanese consumers use credit cards more than people in the United States.
Answer:
Japanese interest rates are lower than those in the United States.
Explanation:
The demand for money (the decision to hold money) is inversely related to interest rate. if interest rate is high, individuals would prefer to hold bonds and the demand for money would fall. if interest rate is low, individuals would prefer to hold money.
the opportunity cost of holding money is what would have been earned if money was invested. if interest rate is low, individuals would prefer to hold more money because the amount that would be earned if money was invested in bonds would be low, so the opportunity cost of holding money would be low
If the demand for money is higher in Japan than in the United States, it is because interest rates are lower in Japan
You are an economist studying the small country of Mardodus. As you look at the data, you see Mardodus has experienced an influx of updated technology to its manufacturing plants, service industry and the medical field in the last three years. This change boosted the growth of the country’s productivity by 75%, yet you see that wages have been very slow to respond to this growth. As you begin to analyze the natural unemployment rate for this time frame, what do you most likely discover?
Answer: Natural rate of unemployment will decrease because the productivity growth in the short term has passed up wage growth.
Explanation:
The natural unemployment rate simply means the lowest unemployment rate where the inflation in the economy is stable.
Based on the information given in the question, if the natural unemployment rate for this time frame.is analyzed, the natural rate of unemployment will reduce due to the fact that the productivity growth in the short term has passed up wage growth.

The cost of preferred stock
Preferred stock is a hybrid security, because it has some characteristics typical of debt and others typical of equity. The following table lists various characteristics of preferred stock. Determine which of these characteristics is consistent with debt and which is consistent with equity.
Characteristics Debt Equity
Dividends are fixed
Usually has no specified maturity date
Consider the case of Tamin Enterprises:
At the present time, Tamin Enterprises does not have any preferred stock outstanding but is looking to include preferred stock in its capital structure in the future. Tamin has found some institutional investors that are willing to purchase its preferred stock issue provided that it pays a perpetual dividend of $11 per share. If the investors pay $97.95 per share for their investment, then Tamin's cost of preferred stock (rounded to four decimal places) will be:_____.
Answer:
Dividends are fixed ⇒ Debt
Preferred dividends are fixed much like the interest payments made on debt which makes this a characteristic of debt.
Usually have no specified maturity date ⇒ Equity
Equity does not have an expiration or maturity date and preferred shares share this same characteristic.
Cost of preferred stock.
The value of a Preferred stock is calculated by the formula:
Price = Dividend / Cost of preferred stock
97.95 = 11 / Cp
97.95 * Cp = 11
Cp = 11/ 97.95
= 11.23%
Jammer Company uses a weighted average perpetual inventory system and reports the following:
August 2 Purchase 24 units at $18.50 per unit. August 18 Purchase 26 units at $20.00 per unit. August 29 Sale 48 units. August 31 Purchase 29 units at $21.50 per unit.
What is the per-unit value of ending inventory on August 31? (Round your per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $21.36
Explanation:
Weighted average inventory system works by taking the average of the inventory prices on the different days.
Price on August 29 which is date of sale:
= {(Units purchased on August 2 * Unit cost on August 2) + ( Units purchased on August 18 * Unit cost on August 18)] / (Units purchased on August 2 + Units purchased on August 18)
= [ ( 24 * 18.50) + (26 * 20) ] / (24 + 26)
= $19.28 per unit
48 units were sold so the number of units left are:
= 24 + 26 - 48
= 2 units
Price on August 31
= [ (Units remaining on August 29 * Unit cost on August 29) + ( Units purchased on August 31 * Unit cost on August 31)] / (Units remaining on August 29 + Units purchased on August 31)
= [ (2 * 19.28) + (29 * 21.50) ] / ( 2 + 29)
= $21.36
Oliver's long-term care policy covers only services in a nursing facility and pays nothing for services provided at home or in the community. What kind of LTC policy does Oliver own?
Question options:
a. facility-challenged
b. substandard
c. tier 1
d. noncomprehensive
Answer:
d. noncomprehensive
Explanation:
Oliver has a noncomprehensive long term care(LTC). A non comprehensive long term care is policy that restricts services to the ones provided at a nursing facility, and so Oliver pays for the benefits of only the services of a nursing facility . It is different from a comprehensive long term care where services cover and can be provided at an adult day care, home, assisted living facilities, or at nursing facilities.
Oliver's policy which does not cover nursing facilities provided at home or in the community is known as a Non-comprehensive health insurance policy. So, the correct option is D.
A non-comprehensive policy is a type of policy that covers only expenses related to the health of the customer that are provided in the hospital in-house premises only.
It is to be noted that there are no nursing facility expenses reimbursed or paid to the policy holder in case of health issues faced, if any. There are several other types of policies which reimburse such expenses.In a non-comprehensive policy, the policy holder is entitled to receive health benefits of only core hospitalization and any other expenses like bedding, medications, out-house nursing facilities, etc.The premium to be paid on the non-comprehensive policy is less compared to a comprehensive policy as the benefits to be availed are also less and so the drill.Hence, the correct option is D that the non-comprehensive policy does not cover nursing facilities taken in-house or at the community.

To calculate the fixed asset turnover, we need to use the following formula:
Fixed asset turnover= sales revenue / fixed assests
Fixed asset turnover= 1,000,000 / 132,000
Fixed asset turnover= 7.58
The ogvernment is bound by the acts of its agents committed within the scope of their agents authority, such as express and actual authroity.
A. True
B. False
Answer: True
Explanation:
Express and actual authority refers to the agent's power to act on behalf of a principal, which had been granted by the agreement that already took place between the agent and principal.
It should be noted that government is bound by the acts of its agents which are committed within the scope of their agents authority, like the express and actual authroity.
Therefore, the correct answer is True.
Stock Rit Rmt ai Beta
A 10.6 15Â Â Â 0 0.8
Z Â 9.8 8 0 1.1
Rit = return for stock i during period t
Rmt = return for the aggregate market during period t
What is the abnormal rate of return for Stock Z during period t using only the aggregate market return (ignore differential systematic risk)?
a. 3.40
b. 4.40
c. 1.80
d. -4.40
E.
-1.70
Answer:
1.8 option c
Explanation:
this question has a very simple solution
the following definitions
Rit = return for stock i during period t
Rmt = return for the aggregate market during period t
The abnormal rate of return for stock z is = Rit - Rmt
Rit = 9.8
Rmt = 8
9.8 - 8 = 1.8
therefore the abnormal rte of return for stock z is = 1.8, which is option c
A mutual fund sold $58 million of assets during the year and purchased $64 million in assets. If the average daily assets of the fund were $216 million, what was the fund turnover
Answer: 26.85%
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the fund turnover will be calculated thus:
Funds sold = $58 Million
Average Daily Assets = $216 Million
Fund Turnover = Fund Sold / Average Daily Assets
Fund Turnover = $58 Million / $216 million
= 26.85%
Suppose Brian and Crystal are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that if Brian chooses Right and Crystal chooses Right, Brian will receive a payoff of 5 and Crystal will receive a payoff of 6.
Crystal
Left Right
Left 6, 3 6,4
Brian Right 3, 3 7,4
The only dominant strategy in this game is for_____to choose____. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Brian chooses____and Crystal chooses____.
Answer:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for Crystal to choose Right. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Brian chooses Right and Crystal chooses Right.
Explanation:
Given:
Crystal
Left Right
Brian Left 6, 3 6, 4
Right 3, 3 7, 4
A dominant strategy refers to a strategy that makes a player being better off regardless of the choice his opponent in a game.
It can be seen from the payoff matrix above that when Brian plays Left, Crystal chooses Right because 4 > 3. Also, when Brian plays Right, Crystal chooses Right because 4 > 3. The indication of this is that Crystal will always choose Right no matter what Brian chooses. This means that the dominant strategy for Crystal is Right.
On the other hand, when Crystal Chooses Left, Brian will also choose Left because 6 > 3. And when Crystal chooses Right, Brian will also play Right because 7 > 6. This is an indication that Brian does not have any specific strategy that makes him better off. Therefore, Brian does not have a dominant strategy.
Based on the analysis above, we have:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for Crystal to choose Right. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Brian chooses Right and Crystal chooses Right.
Two athletes of equal ability are competing for a prize of $10,000. Each is deciding whether to take a dangerous performance-enhancing drug. If one athlete takes the drug, and the other does not, the one who takes the drug wins the prize. If both or neither take the drug, they tie and split the prize. Taking the drug imposes health risks that are equivalent to a loss of X dollars
Required:
a. Draw a $2 payoff matrix describing the decisions the athletes face.
b. For what X is taking the drug the Nash equilibrium?
c. Does making the drug safer (that is, lowering X) make the athletes better or worse off? Explain.
Answer:
a) attached below.
b) for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium
c) will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase
Explanation:
a) 2 * 2 payoff matrix describing the decision faced by the athletes
attached below
when both players take the drug the payoff for each player = $5000 - x
when neither player takes the drug the payoff for each player = $5000
When only one player takes the drug his payoff = $10000 - x
b) If we consider the value of $x to be involved in the Nash equilibrium then
; $5000 - $x > 0 becomes the best response
hence for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium
c) Lowering the negative effect of the drug ( i.e. when the value of x is reduced )
will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase
Which one of the following affects cash during a period?
a. Recording depreciation expense
b. Declaration of a cash dividend
c. Write-off of an uncollectible account receivable
d. Payment of an accounts payable
Answer: d. Payment of an accounts payable
Explanation:
The payment of an accounts payable affects cash because it means that cash was used to pay off the payable in question and therefore the cash that the company holds has now reduced.
In the Statement of Cashflows, this is accounted for under the Operating Activities of the business. A decrease in accounts payable is subtracted from the net income to show that cash has reduced.
