Answer:
B. the recognition lag.
Explanation:
Recognition lag means the delay that lies between the economic shock arise and when it should be seen by the economist, government etc. Here the delays could be arise as the data that documented the economy state should not be available on the instant basis and after this it takes the time to analyze it correctly
Therefore as per the given situation, the option b is correct
Service levels are reported accurately is an example of which control
Answer:
Service level measures the performance of a system. Certain goals are defined and the service level gives the percentage to which those goals should be achieved. Fill rate is different from service level.
Examples of service level:
Percentage of calls answered in a call center.
Percentage of customers waiting less than a given fixed time.
Percentage of customers that do not experience a stockout.
Percentage of all parts of an order being fulfilled completely
(Explanation) if one component part of an order is not filled the Service Level for that order is Zero, If all the component parts of an order are delivered except one is filled at 51%, the service level for that order is 51% (This system is often used in supply chain delivery to manufacturing), This is a very different from a simple order fill measurement which does not consider line items on the order.

a. If a wage of $10.25 were to be imposed on this market, such that the market was not longer strictly competitive, what would be the value for labor supply?
b. At the imposed wage of $10.25 what would be the value for labor demand?
c. Provide a properly labeled and appropriately articulated Labor Market Model given the labor supply and demand equations provided and the imposed wage of $10.25.
d. Based on the labor market model you’ve now illustrated, how would you describe the current condition of this market given the imposed wage?
Solution :
Given the wage = $ 10.25 that is to be imposed to the market.
Given equation :
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 500 – 45W and [tex]L_S[/tex] = -200 + 25W
If the wage of $10.25 is to be imposed to the market, the value of the labor supply can be found by putting the value of the wage in the labor supply equation.
At W = 10.25
Putting this value in the above equation, the labor supply would be
[tex]L_S[/tex] = -200 + 25W
[tex]L_S[/tex] = -200 + 25(10.25)
= 56.25
When W = 10.25, the value for the labor demand can be found by :
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 500 – 45W
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 500 – 45(10.25)
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 500 – 461.25
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 38.75
Therefore, the labor demand and the labor supply model is
[tex]L_D[/tex] = 400 - 45 x 10.25
[tex]L_S[/tex] = -200 + 25 x 10.25
Given that the DM price of the ECU was 2.0583 and the DG price of the ECU was 2.3194. Then the DG price of the DM by cross rates is given by:______
a. DM = about 4.73 DG.
b. DM = about .26 DG.
c. DM = about 1.13 DG.odno
d. DM = about .89 DG.
Answer:
Option c (DM = about 1.13 DG) is the right approach.
Explanation:
Given:
DM price,
= 2.0583
DG price,
= 2.3194
Now,
By cross rates, the DG price of DM will be:
= [tex]\frac{2.3194}{2.0583}[/tex]
= [tex]1.13[/tex]
Thus the above is the correct option.
You own a portfolio that has $2,600 invested in Stock A and $3,600 invested in Stock B. If the expected returns on these stocks are 12 percent and 15 percent, respectively, what is the expected return on the portfolio
Answer:
the expected return on the portfolio is $7,052
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the portfolio is shown below:
Stock A return = $2,600 + 12% of 2600 = $2,912
And,
Stock B return = $3,600 + 15% of 3600 = $4,140
So,
Expected return on portfolio is
= $2,912 + $4,140
= $7,052
hence, the expected return on the portfolio is $7,052

vii) the sample mean is less than 2.61 inches = P(X < 2.61) = 0.0228
viii)the probability that the sample mean is between 2.62 and 2.64 inches
P(2.62 < X < 2.64) = 0.6827
ix) The probability is 6-% that the sample mean will be between what two values symmetrically distributed around the population measure
Therefore 0.06 = P(2.6292 < X < 2.6307)
A point outside (to the right of) the production possibilities curve of a nation implies that this nation is using its resources fully. implies that there are unemployed resources in this nation. is easily attainable for this nation. is not attainable for this nation. Submit
Answer:
is not attainable for this nation
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.
Point outside the curve or to the right of the curve means that the production level is not attainable given the level of resources
Points inside the production possibilities curve means that the nations resources are not being fully utilised
Factors that cause the PPF to shift
1. changes in technology.
2. changes in available resources.
3. changes in the labour force.
Suppose the ABC bank has excess reserves of $3,000 and checkable deposits of $50,000. If the reserve requirement is 20 percent, what is the size of the bank's actual reserves?
a. $53,000
b. $13,000
c. $10,000
d. $7,000
Answer:
b. $13,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the size of the bank's actual reserves
Using this formula
Actual reserves size=Excess reserves+(Checkable deposits*Reserve requirement)
Let plug in the formula
Actual reserves size=$3,000+(.20*$50,000)
Actual reserves size=$3,000+$10,000
Actual reserves size=$13,000
Therefore the size of the bank's actual reserves is $13,000
A researcher wants to test the order of integration of some time series data. He decides to use the DF test. He estimates a regression of the form
delta yt = mu + si yt-1 + mut
and obtains the estimate ˆ? = -0.02 with standard error = 0.31.
(a) What are the null and alternative hypotheses for this test?
(b) Given the data, and a critical value of -2.88, perform the test.
(c) What is the conclusion from this test and what should be the next step?
(d) Why is it not valid to compare the estimated test statistic with the corresponding critical value from a t-distribution, even though the test statistic takes the form of the usual t-ratio?
Answer:
a) H0: u = presence of a unit root
HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root ( i.e. stationary series )
b) t stat = -0.064
c) We will reject the Null hypothesis and the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis
d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise
Explanation:
a) stating the null and alternative hypothesis
H0: u = presence of a unit root
HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root ( i.e. stationary series )
b) performing the test
critical value = -2.88
T stat = coefficient / std error
= -0.02 / 0.31 = -0.064
c) From the test, the value of T stat > critical value we will reject the Null hypothesis hence the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis
d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise

Explanation:
Zhang Industries sells a product for $700 per unit. Unit sales for May were 400, and each month's unit sales are expected to grow by 3%. Zhang pays a sales manager a monthly salary of $3,000 and a commission of 2% of sales. Compute the budgeted selling expense for the manager for the month ended June 30.
Answer:
Zhang Industries
The Budgeted selling expense for the manger for the month ended June 30 is:
= $8,768.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price per unit = $700
Unit sales for May = 400
Expected growth of unit sales each month = 3%
Unit sales for June = 412 (400 * 1.03)
Sales revenue for June = $288,400 ($700 * 412)
Monthly sales salary to the sales manager = $3,000
Monthly sales commission = 2% of sales
Budgeted selling expense for the manger for the month ended June 30:
Monthly sales salary to the sales manager = $3,000
Monthly sales commission = 2% of sales 5,768 ($288,400 * 2%)
Total selling expense for the month = $8,768

Answer:
Capital market is at equilibrium and no change in interest rate
Explanation:
In the capital market
National savings = " S + T - G "
At equilibrium position ; National savings = " I + X "
When National savings > "1 + X " Interest rate decrease because there is an excess of supply while
When National savings > "1 + X" interest rate will increase to balance out the capital market because there is excess of demand.
From the attached table of solution below all values of the National savings = "I + X" this shows that the capital ( financial ) market is at equilibrium position

Suppose the annual inflation rate in the US is expected to be 2.5 %, while it is expected to be 18.00 % in Mexico. The current spot rate (on 1/1/X0) for the Mexican Peso (MXN) is $0.1000. If the spot rate of MXN turns out to be $0.085 on 1/1/X1, the net cash flow of a US importer from Mexico will: Group of answer choices Increase Decrease
Answer:
Increase
Explanation:
In putting the question into a better perspective let us assume that the US importer buys goods from Mexico every year to the Tune of 1,000,000 Mexican Pesos.
The expected exchange rate on 1/1/X1=$0.1000*(1+2.5%)/(1+18%)
The expected exchange rate on 1/1/X1=$0.086864407
Amount paid based on expected exchange rate=1,000,000*$0.086864407
Amount paid based on expected exchange rate=$86,864.41
Amount paid based on actual exchange=1,000,000*$0.085
Amount paid based on actual exchange=$85,000
The above means that the US importer paid a lesser amount($85000) than it should have paid, hence, its net cash flow would increase due to a reduction in payment

Answer:
Your answer is given below:
Explanation:
If a coupon bond has two years to maturity, a coupon rate of 10 %, a par value of $1000 , and a yield to maturity of 12 %, then the coupon bond will sell for $nothing . (Round your response to the nearest two decimal place) The price of a bond and its yield to maturity are ▼ positively related negatively related unrelated .
Answer:
The right solution is "$966.27".
Explanation:
Given values are:
Coupon rate,
= 10%
Par value,
= $1000
Yield of maturity,
= 12%
then,
Coupon will be:
= [tex]1000\times 10 \ percent[/tex]
= [tex]1000\times 0.1[/tex]
= [tex]100[/tex] ($)
Now,
The present value of coupon will be:
= [tex]A\times \frac{(1-(1+r)^n)}{r}[/tex]
By putting the value, we get
= [tex]100\times \frac{1-(1.12)^{-2}}{0.12}[/tex]
= [tex]100\times \frac{1-0.7971}{0.12}[/tex]
= [tex]100\times \frac{0.2029}{0.12}[/tex]
= [tex]169.08[/tex] ($)
The present value of par value will be:
= [tex]\frac{1000}{(1+12 \ percent)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1000}{(1.12)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]797.19[/tex] ($)
hence,
The price of bond will be:
= [tex]Present \ value \ of \ coupon+Present \ value \ of \ par \ value[/tex]
= [tex]169.08+797.19[/tex]
= [tex]966.27[/tex] ($)
Suppose that 45% of all babies born in a particular hospital are girls. If 7 babies born in the hospital are randomly selected, what is the probability that at most of them are girls?
Answer:
0.10
Explanation:
Using the binomial probability formula: P(X = x) = (nCx) * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)
P(X≤1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)
P(X≤1) = (7C0) * 0.45^0 * (0.55)^7 + (7C1) * 0.45^1 * (0.55)^6
P(X≤1) = 0.1024
P(X≤1) = 0.10
So, the Probability that at most one of them are girls 0.10.
The following discussion focuses on the change in production and selling strategies of Timken Co., the Canton, Ohio, firm that is a major producer of bearings:
To counter the low prices of imports, Timken Co. in 2003 began bundling its bearings with other parts to provide industrial business customers with products specifically designed for their needs. Timken had begun bundling prelubricated, preassembled bearing packages for automobile manufacturers in the early 1990s. Evidence indicated that companies that sold integrated systems rather than discrete parts to the automobile manufacturers increased their sales. Other industrial customers put the same pressure on Timken in the late 1990s to lower prices, customize, or lose their business to lower-priced foreign suppliers. Manufacturers are increasingly combining a standard part with casings, pins, lubrication, and electronic sensors. Installation, maintenance, and engineering services may also be included. Suppliers, such as Timken, saw this as a means of increasing profits and making themselves more indispensable to the manufacturers. The strategy also required suppliers to remain in proximity with their customers, another advantage over foreign imports. This type of bundling does require significant research and development and flexible factories to devise new methods of transforming core parts into smart assemblies. The repackaging is more difficult for industrial than automobile customers because the volumes of production are smaller for the former. Timken also had to educate its customers on the variety of new products available.
Timken has an 11 percent share of the world market for bearings. However, imports into the United States doubled to $1.4 billion in 2002 compared with $660 million in 1997. Timken believes that the uniqueness of its product helps protect it from foreign competition. However, the company still lobbied the Bush administration to stop what it calls the dumping of bearings at low prices by foreign producers in Japan, Romania, and Hungary.
Required:
a. What factors in the economic environment, in addition to foreign imports, contributed to Timken’s new strategy in 2002 and 2003?
b. How does this strategy relate to the discussion of bundling presented in the chapter? What additional factors are presented in this case?
Answer:
Timken Co.
a. Factors in the Economic Environment that contributed to Timken;s new strategy in 2002 and 2003 in addition to foreign imports at cheaper prices:
1. The needs of industrial business customers for integrated systems
2. Lowering of prices resulting from bundling
3. Addition of installation, maintenance, and engineering services, leading to increasing profits
b. The relationship of this strategy to bundling
1. Remaining in proximity with customers
2. Significant research and development
3. Flexible factories
4. Education of customers on product variety
c. Additional factors presented in this case are:
1. Customization
2. Means of making entity more indispensable to manufacturers
3. Uniqueness of products
4. Lobbying to stop dumping
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Share of the world market for bearings = 11%
Value of bearing imports in 2002 = $1.4 billion
Value of bearing imports in 1997 = $660 million
b) Companies engage in bundling by offering their main products together with several others together with services as a single combined unit. This strategy always lowers the bundled price when compared with the prices of the separate products and services. Thus, companies that sell bundled products and services often achieve more sales at the expense of profits.
After Jim has gotten two different quotes for repairing his brakes, one from the dealership and one from a small, private mechanic, he choses to go with the small mechanic who has agreed to do his brakes for $200.00 less than the dealership. Jim takes his car to the mechanic who begins working on his brakes. After a week passes, the mechanic calls him and tells him he is in over his head and cannot fix his brakes. Jim goes over to pick up his car and finds his car in the mechanic's garage with the brakes disassembled around the mechanic's garage. What legal recourse does Jim have?
Answer:
Primary estoppel
Explanation:
Primary estoppel is defined as the principle that a promise made by a promisor is enforceable most especially when a promisee believes the promise and this leads to a subsequent detriment.
In the given scenario Jim used a small mechanic to repair his brakes and was assured he could do the job.
However the mechanic calls him and tells him he is in over his head and cannot fix his brakes, and finds his car in the mechanic's garage with the brakes disassembled around the mechanic's garage.
He can resort to primary estoppel as a legal recourse.
During 2015, a construction company changed from the completed-contract method to the percentage-of-completion method for accounting purposes but not for tax purposes. Gross profit figures under both methods for the past three years appear below:
Completed-Contract Percentage-of-Completion
2013 $ 475,000 $ 900,000
2014 625,000 950,000
2015 700,000 1,050,000
$1,800,000 $2,900,000
Assuming an income tax rate of 40% for all years, the affect of this accounting change on prior periods should be reported by a credit of:____________
Answer:
$450,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine , the affect of this accounting change on prior periods that should be reported by a credit of:
Using this formula
Accounting change on prior periods=(2013 Percentage-of-Completion+2014 Percentage-of-Completion)-(2013 Completed-Contract+2014 Completed-Contract)*(1-Tax rate)
Let plug in the formula
Accounting change on prior periods=[($900,000+$950,000)-($475,000+$625,000)]*(1-40%)
Accounting change on prior periods=($1,850,000-$1,100,000)*0.60
Accounting change on prior periods=$750,000*.60
Accounting change on prior periods=$450,000
Therefore Assuming an income tax rate of 40% for all years, the affect of this accounting change on prior periods should be reported by a credit of:$450,000
