Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Segment A Segment B Segment C
Sales $500,000 $300,000 $200,000
Traceable operating expenses 250,000 120,000 90,000
Profit= 250,000 180,000 110,000 = 540,000
Allocable costs for the year was $180,000.
First, we need to allocate costs to Segment B:
Segment B= 180,000/540,000= 0.33
Allocate= 0.33*180,000= 60,000
Now, we can calculate the profit:
Segment B profit= 180,000 - 60,000= 120,000

Imagine that Eveready has developed solar rechargeable batteries that cost only slightly more to produce than the rechargeable batteries currently available. These solar batteries can be recharged by sunlight up to five times, after which they are to be discarded. Unfortunately, the production process cannot be patented, so competitors could enter the market within a year. Which of the following is the best description of the product life cycle of this product?
a. Long, level beginning, and rapid ascent
b. High initial sales followed by slow decline
c. High introductory sales followed by rapid decline
d. Rapid growth followed by rapid decline
e. Moderately slow introduction, followed by modest growth, gradually leveling off
Answer: Moderately slow introduction, followed by modest growth, gradually leveling off
Explanation:
The product life cycle is the time a product takes from the introduction stage to the decline stage when it's off the market.
Based on the above scenario, the product life cycle of this product will be moderately slow introduction, followed by modest growth, gradually leveling.
This is because since it's a new product, there will be a slow introduction as people will just be getting used to the product, then as customers begin to buy the product and it's brand becomes known, there'll be a modest growth before it levels off.

An individual is planning to set-up an education fund for her daughter. She plans to invest $7,700 annually at the end of each year. She expects to withdraw money from the fund at the end of 9 years and expects to earn an annual return of 8%. What will be the total value of the fund at the end of 9 years
Answer:
$96,154.20
Explanation:
We are to find the future value of the annuity
The formula for calculating future value = A (B / r)
B = [(1 + r)^n] - 1
A = Amount
R = interest rate
N = number of years
[(1.08)^9 - 1 ] / 0.08 = 12.487558
12.487558 x $7,700 = $96,154.20

1. Assume that all common stock is issued for cash. What amount of cash dividends is paid during 2015?
2. Assume that no additional notes payable are issued in 2015. What cash amount is paid to reduce the notes payable balance in 2015?
Answer:
1. $2,800
2. $40,000
Explanation:
1. The computation of cash dividends is paid during 2015 is shown below:-
Retained earnings
Dividend paid $2,800 Beginning balance $8,400
($8,400 + $30,000
- $35,600) Net income $30,000
Total $2,800 $38,400
Ending balance $35,600
Therefore cash dividends is paid during 2015 is 2,800
2. The computation of cash amount is paid to reduce the notes payable balance in 2015 is shown below:-
Notes payable
Cash paid $40,000 Beginning balance $69,000
($69,000 - $29,000)
Total $40,000 $69,000
Ending balance $29,000
Therefore cash amount is paid to reduce the notes payable balance
in 2015 is $40,000
Suppose that the S&P 500, with a beta of 1.0, has an expected return of 13% and T-bills provide a risk-free return of 4%. a. What would be the expected return and beta of portfolios constructed from these two assets with weights in the S&P 500 of (i) 0; (ii) 0.25; (iii) 0.50; (iv) 0.75; (v) 1.0
Answer:
a. The answers are as follows:
(i) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 4%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0
(ii) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 6.25%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.25
(iii) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 8.50%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.50
(iv) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 10.75%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.75
(v) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 13%; and Beta of Portfolio = 1.0
b. Change in expected return = 9% increase
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as part b of it is omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Suppose that the S&P 500, with a beta of 1.0, has an expected return of 13% and T-bills provide a risk-free return of 4%.
a. What would be the expected return and beta of portfolios constructed from these two assets with weights in the S&P 500 of (i) 0; (ii) 0.25; (iii) 0.50; (iv) 0.75; (v) 1.0
b. How does expected return vary with beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
The explanation to the answers are now provided as follows:
a. What would be the expected return and beta of portfolios constructed from these two assets with weights in the S&P 500 of (i) 0; (ii) 0.25; (iii) 0.50; (iv) 0.75; (v) 1.0
To calculate these, we use the following formula:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (WS&P * RS&P) + (WT * RT) ………… (1)
Beta of Portfolio = (WS&P * BS&P) + (WT * BT) ………………..………………. (2)
Where;
WS&P = Weight of S&P = (1) – (1v)
RS&P = Return of S&P = 13%, or 0.13
WT = Weight of T-bills = 1 – WS&P
RT = Return of T-bills = 4%, or 0.04
BS&P = 1.0
BT = 0
After substituting the values into equation (1) & (2), we therefore have:
(i) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0 (i.e. WS&P = 0)
Using equation (1), we have:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0) * 0.04) = 0.04, or 4%
Using equation (2), we have:
Beta of Portfolio = (0 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0) * 0) = 0
(ii) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.25 (i.e. WS&P = 0.25)
Using equation (1), we have:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.25 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.25) * 0.04) = 0.0625, or 6.25%
Using equation (2), we have:
Beta of Portfolio = (0.25 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.25) * 0) = 0.25
(iii) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.50 (i.e. WS&P = 0.50)
Using equation (1), we have:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.50 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.50) * 0.04) = 0.0850, or 8.50%
Using equation (2), we have:
Beta of Portfolio = (0.50 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.50) * 0) = 0.50
(iv) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.75 (i.e. WS&P = 0.75)
Using equation (1), we have:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.75 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.75) * 0.04) = 0.1075, or 10.75%
Using equation (2), we have:
Beta of Portfolio = (0.75 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.75) * 0) = 0.75
(v) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 1.0 (i.e. WS&P = 1.0)
Using equation (1), we have:
Expected of Return of Portfolio = (1.0 * 0.13) + ((1 – 1.0) * 0.04) = 0.13, or 13%
Using equation (2), we have:
Beta of Portfolio = (1.0 * 1.0) + (1 – 1.0) * 0) = 1.0
b. How does expected return vary with beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
There expected return will increase by the percentage of the difference between Expected Return and Risk free rate. That is;
Change in expected return = Expected Return - Risk free rate = 13% - 4% = 9% increase
What type of policy lowers interest rates to allow individuals access to more money for large purchases
Complete Question:
What type of policy lowers interest rates to allow individuals access to more money for large purchases?
Group of answer choices
A. Fiscal.
B. Stimulus.
C. Discount.
D. Monetary.
Answer:
D. Monetary.
Explanation:
Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth. The central bank uses monetary policies to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country. In order to boost economic growth, monetary policy is used to increase money supply (liquidity) while it is also used to prevent inflation by reducing money supply.
Generally, money supply comprises of checks, cash, money market mutual funds (MMF) and credit (mortgage, bonds and loans).
Additionally, monetary policy lowers interest rates to allow individuals access to more money for large purchases.
A gift-wrapping business is staffed by Kaitlyn, Rob, Sam, Susan and Sarah. The production by each of the staff members for an average eight-hour work day is as follows:
Assume that the standard or normal productivity in the organization is 10 minutes per package. What is Kaitlyn's efficiency?
Kaitlyn Rob Sam Susan Sarah
72 packages 55 packages 52 packages 52 packages 48 packages
a. 0.75 (75%)
b. 1.50(150%)
c. 9.0 packages per hour
d. 1.50 packages per hour
e. 9.0 minutes per package
Answer:
b. 1.50(150%)
Explanation:
Given that, the standard time per packages is 10 minutes
Then, the total time taken in eight hour shift is 8 * 60 = 480 minutes
The standard output = Total time taken / Standard time = 480/10 = 48 packages
Therefore, the efficiency of Kaitlyn = Kaitlyn's Output / Standard output
=72 / 48
= 1.5
Hence, the answer is 150% or 1.5

You are calculating the performance of your project. If the actual cost is $80,000, the planned value is $70,000 and the earned value is $65,000, what is the cost performance index?
Answer:
Cost performance index is 81.25%
Explanation:
Actual cost = $80,000
Planned value = $70,000
Earned value = $65,000
Cost performance index (CPI) is the ratio of earned value to actual cost and can be used to estimate the projected cost of completing the project.
CPI = EV / AC
= $65,000 / $80,000
= 0.8125
= 0.8125 x 100
= 81.25%
. A particular parcel of real estate (land) is sold for $20,000,000 and was originally purchased for $10,000,000. On a taxable sale, explain a circumstance (type of investor, intent, entity, etc.) that would pay the following U.S. federal income tax results on the $10,000,000 gain (exclude the 3.8% net investment income tax and any state taxes in the calculation):
Question Completion:
Choices: a. No tax liability on the sale b. $2,000,000 of tax c. $2,960,000 of tax d. $2,100,000 of tax
Answer:
b. $2,000,000 of tax for individuals
Explanation:
Long-term capital gains tax is a tax on profits from the sale of an asset which an investor has held for more than a year. The approved long-term capital gains tax rates are 0%, 15% or 20% depending on your taxable income bracket and whether you are filing as a single or jointly as married. But, an important point to note is that long-term capital gains tax rates are generally lower than short-term capital gains tax rates, thus encouraging investors to hold assets for a longer time. Short-term capital gains tax rates are the rates applicable to the normal individual income tax brackets.
Anderson International Limited is evaluating a project in Erewhon. The project will create the following cash flows:
Year Cash Flow
0 160,000
1 335,000
2 400,000
3 295,000
4 250,000
All cash flows will occur in Erewhon and are expressed in dollars. In an attempt to Improve its economy, the Erewhonian government has declared that all cash flows created by a foreign company are "blocked" and must be reinvested with the government for one year. The reinvestment rate for these funds is 4 percent.
If Anderson uses a required return of 7 percent on this project, what are the NPV and IRR of the project? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16. Enter your IRR as a percent.)
NPV
IRR %
Answer:
since the positive cash flows are blocked for one year, you have to adjust your cash flows:
year cash flow
0 -$160,000
1 $0
2 $348,400
3 $416,000
4 $306,800
5 $260,000
discount rate = 7%
using a financial calculator:
NPV = -$160,000 + $1,063,318.63 = $903,318.63
IRR = 102.94%
Suppose you bought a bond with an annual coupon rate of 4.2 percent one year ago for $900. The bond sells for $950 today. a. Assuming a $1,000 face value, what was your total dollar return on this investment over the past year? b. What was your total nominal rate of return on this investment over the past year? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. If the inflation rate last year was 2.5 percent, what was your total real rate of return on this investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a) total return = ($1,000 x 4.2%) + ($950 - $900) = $92
b) nominal rate of return = total return / total investment = $92 / $900 = 10.22%
c) we calculate the approximate real rate of return = nominal rate of return - inflation rate = 10.22% - 2.5% = 7.72%
if we want to determine the exact real rate of return:
exact real rate of return = [(1 + nominal rate) / (1 + inflation rate)] - 1 = (1.1022 /1.025) - 1 = 7.53%
The following table lists all costs of quality incurred by Sam's Surf Shop last year. Annual inspection costs Annual cost of scrap materials Annual rework cost Annual cost of quality training Annual warranty cost Annual testing cost $ 172,000 356,000 104,679 526,000 1,686,000 535,000 What was Sam's appraisal cost for quality last year?
Answer:
$707,000
Explanation:
Calculation for Sam's appraisal cost for quality last year
Using this formula
Appraisal cost = Annual inspection costs + Annual testing cost
Where,
Annual inspection costs =$172,000
Annual testing cost=$535,000
Let plug in the formula
Appraisal cost = $172,000 + $535,000
Appraisal cost = $707,000
Therefore Sam's appraisal cost for quality last year will be $707,000.

Suppose Rocky Brands has earnings per share of $2.33 and EBITDA of $29.3 million. The firm also has 5.3 million shares outstanding and debt of $125 million (net of cash). You believe Jared's Outdoor Corporation is comparable to Rocky Brands in terms of its underlying business, but Jared's has no debt. If Jared's has a P/E of 12.9 and an enterprise value to EBITDA multiple of 7.1, estimate the Enterprise Value of Rocky Brands by using both multiples. Which estimate is likely to be more accurate?
Answer:
enterprise value to EBITDA.
Explanation:
The computation of the value of the stock using P/E ratio is shown below:-
Stock value = (P/E ratio × EPS) × Number of shares outstanding
= (12.9 × $2.33) × 5.3 million
= 159.3021 million
Now, the computation of the value of the stock using EBITDA multiple is shown below:-
Stock value = (EBITDA multiple × EBITDA) - Net debt
= (7.1 × $29.3 million) - $125 million
= 208.03 - $125 million
= 83.03
There is no equivalent corporate debt. It is easier to make a comparison at the operating level and thus a better measure of valuation is the enterprise value to EBITDA.
A registered representative is notified verbally by the nephew of a client that his uncle has passed away. Which statements are TRUE regarding the actions that the registered representative can take based on this information?
I The account should be immediately marked as "deceased"
II The account should be marked deceased only when instructions are received from the executor of the deceased's estate
III All open orders should be canceled immediately
IV All open orders should be canceled only when instructions are received from the executor of the deceased's estate
a. I and III
b. I and IV
c. II and III
d. II and IV
Answer: a. I and III
Explanation:
As soon as word comes through that a client has passed on, the immediate thing to do is to note the date of death and then mark the account as deceased.
After this, all open orders should be immediately cancelled. It is also best to inform a superior of the development. Any other actions would from there henceforth regarding the account is to be determined by the executor of the estate.
Answer:
d. II and IV
Explanation:
The nephew cannot freeze or cause the account to be freezed because he is not considered an immediate family of the deceased or an executor for the deceased. The account cannot be marked as deceased and all open orders cannot be cancelled yet until the executor who was appointed to administer the deceased estate gives the instruction or announces to the representative of the person's death. The representative must therefore endeavor to make enquiries or call the right people to get needed information

Premium amount = Par value - issue price
= $102,105 - $100,000
= $2,105
Number of semi-annual periods = 5 × 2
= 10 periods
Amortization of premium = $2,105 ÷ 10
= 210.5
Semi-annual interest expense = Face value × Coupon rate × (6 ÷ 12)
= $100,000 × 7% × (6 ÷ 12)
= $3,500
First semi-annual interest expense = $3,500 - 210.5
= $3,289.5
A company had total sales of $840,000, net sales of $821,400, and an average accounts receivable of $111,000. Its accounts receivable turnover equals:
Answer:
7.4
Explanation:
accounts receivable turnover is ratio of total net sales and average account receivable.
accounts receivable turnover = total net sales/ average account receivable
Given
net sales = $821,400,
average accounts receivable = $111,000
accounts receivable turnover =$821,400/111,000 = 7.4 Answer
The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
1,768,913 new stocks
Explanation:
the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000
net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock
the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks
The Bob Buckham Senior Center, a not-for-profit entity, serves a hot meal to senior citizens every Friday evening. All the food is donated by a local supermarket. All the food preparation and serving is done by local volunteers. If the Center had to pay for the food, it would need to spend $10,000 a year. If it had to pay for the food preparation and service, it would need to spend $12,000 a year. How should it report these contributions in its financial statements?
Food | Food preparation and service
a. Disclose in the notes | Disclose in the notes
b. Disclose in the notes | Report $12,000 revenue and expense
c. Report $10,000 revenue and expense | Disclose in the notes
d. Report $10,000 revenue and expense | Report $12,000 revenue and expense
Answer:
c. Report $10,000 revenue and expense | Disclose in the notes
Explanation:
Not-for-profit entities must report the fair value of all the goods they receive as donations. in this case, they would have to report the $10,000 worth of food received from a local supermarket. But they are not required to report the value of volunteer work, they only have to disclose it on the footnotes of their financial statements.
Used Car Problems. Marcy purchased a used car from ABC Motors. Six months later, the police seized the car from Marcy because it was a stolen vehicle. Marcy asked for her money back from ABC Motors. The manager there told her that the car was not stolen; that even if it were stolen, ABC Motors acted in good faith with no knowledge of a theft; therefore, no refund was legally required. ABC Motors had also sold a used car to Frank, who wrote a bad check for the car and left town but not before he sold the car to Betty, who paid a fair price for the car believing that Frank had all rights to sell it. ABC Motors asked Betty to return the car, but she told ABC to forget it. Assuming that ABC Motors was an innocent purchaser from the thief, which of the following is true regarding the manager's statement that Marcy is not due a refund?
A. The manager is correct, but only if ABC Motors can prove that it had never been charged with dealing in stolen merchandise.
B. The manager is correct, but only if ABC Motors can prove that none of its representatives were negligent in disregarding evidence of the theft at any time prior to its resale to Marcy.
C. The manager is correct.
D. The manager is incorrect, but only if Marcy can prove that she specifically asked if there was any problem with the car prior to her purchase and was affirmatively told that the title was good.
E. The manager is incorrect.
Answer:
E. The manager is incorrect.
Explanation:
Since the car was stolen, ABC Motors never had good title of it. A car comes with a title and before ABC bought it from someone it should have verified that the title was good. They are merchants and their normal job is to deal with this kind of things. A car dealership cannot sell cars without a good title, and if they do, they will get in legals problems for doing so.Their problems will not only involve the buyer, but they will also be investigated to check if they were involved in the theft.
Suppose the demand curve for a monopolistic competitor becomes steeper, but its average total costs do not change. What is likely to be an effect?
Answer:
The demand curve is less elastic.
Explanation:
The steeper demand curve shows that the demand had become less elastic because the steeper demand curve represents the less elastic demand while the flatter demand curve shows the more elastic demand. therefore, if the demand curve for a monopolistic competitor becomes steeper that means people are less responsive towards the quantity. So if the price increases or decreases, then people will not change their quantity more than the change in price.
] A firm is producing 1,000 units at a total cost of $5,000. If it were to increase production to 1,001 units, its total cost would rise to $5,008. What does this information tell you about the firm?
Answer:
The question is not complete, below is an example of the completely stated question:
A firm is producing 1,000 units at a total cost of $5,000. If it were to increase production to 1,001 units, its total cost would rise to $5,008. What does this information tell you about the firm?
a. Marginal cost is $5, and average variable cost is $8.
b. Marginal cost is $8, and average variable cost is $5.
c. Marginal cost is $5, and average total cost is $8.
d. Marginal cost is $8, and average total cost is $5.
Answer:
d. Marginal cost is $8, and average total cost is $5.
Explanation:
Marginal cost of production is the change in cost, arising from the production of an additional unit of output. it is the cost of manufacturing one more unit of product. Mathematically, marginal cost is represented as:
[tex]Marginal\ cost = \frac{change\ in\ cost}{change\ in\ quantity\ produced} \\[/tex]
change in cost (ΔC) = C₂ - C₁ = 5,008 - 5,000 = 8
change in quantity produced = Q₂ - Q₁ = 1,001 - 1,000 = 1
[tex]Marginal\ cost = \frac{8}{1} = \$8[/tex]
∴Marginal Cost = $8
Average Total Cost (ATC) or average cost or unit cost is the total cost divided by the number of units produced. It is represented as
[tex]ATC =\frac{TC}{Q} \\where\\ATC = Average\ total\ cost\\\TC = Total\ cost\ = \$5,000\\Q = units\ of\ goods\ produced = 1,000\\[/tex]
∴ ATC = 5,000 ÷ 1,000 = $5
A small town with one hospital has two ambulances to supply ambulance service. Requests for ambulances during nonholiday weekends average .45 per hour and tend to be Poisson-distributed. Travel and assistance time averages two hours per call and follows an exponential distribution. Find:
a. System utilization.
b. The average number of customers waiting.
c. The average time customers wait for an ambulance.
d. The probability that both ambulances will be busy when a call comes in.
Explanation:
Given: -
The number of ambulances is(m) = 2.
Arrival rate = 0.45 per hour
Service time = 2 per hour
Service rate =?
service time = 2 (Travel and assistance time averages two hours per call)
Therefore, Service rate will be 1/2 = 0.5 per hour.
a). System utilization(p) = arrival rate/mean of ambulances*service time
p = 0.45/2×0.5 = 0.45.
(b) :- The average number of customer waiting or waiting time for an ambulance is equal to:-
Arrival rate divided by the service rate ( on its corresponding service time as per table value)
I.e. Arrival time = 0.45 ÷ service rate =0.5
= 0.9 ( see table value for 0.9 with service rate as 2)
It comes to 0.229.
Therefore, the average number of customers waiting. 0.229.
(c) :- The average time customers wait for an ambulance is equal to :
No. of customers waiting for ÷ arrival rate
0.229 ÷ 0.45 = 0.508
Or 0.509 (approx. )
D) probability of Both ambulances is idle is Po = 0.378 (from the table for the value of and M=2)
So Probability of both ambulance is busy = 1-Po
= 1 - 0.378
= 0.622
Marks Company makes one product, for which it has established the following standards for materials: Average quantity of material per unit of product: 4.5 pounds Price per pound of materials, $16 During March, Marks made 10,000 units of the product, using 50,000 pounds at a total purchase price of $825,000. What is the materials price variance
Answer:
Direct material price variance= $25,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard price= $16
During March, Marks made 10,000 units of the product, using 50,000 pounds at a total purchase price of $825,000.
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Actual price= 825,000/50,000= $16.5
Direct material price variance= (16 - 16.5)*50,000
Direct material price variance= $25,000 unfavorable

Companies collect a wide variety of information about their foreign markets to decide in which countries to conduct business and which market segments in these markets they should target. What are the three major markets that exist in all foreign markets
Answer:
Consumer MarketsIndustrial MarketsGovernment MarketExplanation:
Consumer markets are where trade happens with consumption as the final aim. This means that in such markets, the end users are households as well as individual consumers who buy goods and services for their own use. Example; selling cars to people.
The Industrial Market is where trade happens between producers and manufacturers who want to turn the goods bought into finished goods or further processable goods. This is why it is also called the Business market.
In the Government market, the consumers or end users is the Government through it's various arms and levels such as state agencies at the Federal, state or municipal level.
A midyear burst of minimum-wage increases starts on July 1
On July 1, 2016, the minimum wage will increase in 14 U.S. cities, states and counties, and in the District of Columbia. In SanFrancisco, the minimum wage will rise to $13.00 by 2018.
Source: The Wall Street Journal, July 1, 2016
The rise in the minimum wage _______.
A. increases aggregate supply because when workers receive a higher wage rate, they work harder
B. decreases aggregate supply because firms' costs increase
C. creates a movement up along the aggregate supply curve because the price level rises
D. does not change aggregate supply because most people earn more than the minimum wage
Answer: B. decreases aggregate supply because firms' costs increase
Explanation:
The rise in the the minimum wage rate raise the production cost .
This tends to shift the aggregate supply curve leftwards because the profit margins of firm will decrease and that tends to decrease the production.( at each unite of production.)
Hence, the rise in the minimum wage decreases aggregate supply because firms' costs increase .
Therefore , the correct option is 'B'.
