B. Use exdpansionary fiscal policy to increase aggregate demand and create more jobs
C. Increase tariffs to protect domestic industries that will provide more jobs.
D. Repeal restrictive labor laws that make it cumbersome for firms to hire new workers.
E. Increase unemployment benefits so that the unemployed can move to a new location that has more job opportunities.
F. Implement stricter immigration laws to prevent immigrants from taking jobs away from citizens.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Increase tariffs to protect domestic industries that will provide more jobs.

Explanation:

Remember, the problem here according to the high natural rate of unemployment principle is the rate at which people lose their jobs. In other words, the problem not the lack of jobs, but the desired need to create job sustainability (protection).

Hence, the best plan that the candidate might present to lower the natural rate of unemployment is to Increase tariffs to protect domestic industries that will provide more jobs. By protecting these industries they can better sustain their workers thereby lowering the natural rate of unemployment.

Answer 2

Answer:

D. Repeal restrictive labor laws that make it cumbersome for firms to hire new workers.

Simon has net investment income of $38,000 and MAGI of $223,000 and files as a single taxpayer. Simon's additional Medicare tax is:______________

Answers

Answer:

$874

Explanation:

Calculation for Simon's additional Medicare tax

Based on the information given we were told Simon has a MAGI of the amount of $223,000 in which part of it is for wages income of the amount of $185,000 ($223,000 -$38,000)

while the amount of $38,000 is the net investment income which means that Samson MAGI is below the threshold limit of the amount of $200,000, therefore tax rate of 3.8% tax will be applied.

Now let calculate the additional Medicare tax

Additional Medicare tax = ($38,000-$15,000)*3.8%

Additional Medicare tax =$23,000*3.8%

Additional Medicare tax = $874

Therefore Simon's additional Medicare tax is:874

A product sells for $200 per unit, and its variable costs per unit are $130. The fixed costs are $420,000. If the firm wants to earn $35,000 pretax income, how many units must be sold? A. 6,500 B. 6,000 C. 500 D. 5,000 E. 5,500

Answers

Answer:

A 6,500

Explanation:

The number of units to be sold is calculated as;

= (Pretax income + Fixed costs) ÷ Contribution margin

Given that;

Pretax income = $35,000

Fixed costs = $420,000

Contribution margin

= Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $200 - $130

= $70

= ($35,000 + $420,000) ÷ $70

= 6,500 units

The lead time for an inventory item is 3 weeks and weekly dmand average 8000 units with SD of 1500 units for an item we deisire a 78% servcie level. what are our average requirements during lead time?

Answers

Answer:

24,000 units

Explanation:

Demand per period, = 8,000  units

Lead time, LT (in periods) = 3 weeks

Average demand during lead time = Lead Time * Demand per period

Average demand during lead time = 8,000 units * 3 weeks

Average demand during lead time = 24,000 units

Thus, our average requirements during the lead time of 3 weeks is 24,000 units

Tommy is about to order a steak dinner with a salad at his favorite restaurant. The restaurant recently raised its prices on steaks but kept its prices on salads the same. How might the real-income effect and the substitution effect influence Tommy’s order?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Each of these effects would most likely influence Tommy's order differently. The real-income effect would most likely cause Tommy to buy the large steak and salad regardless of the increase in price since individuals tend to spend more when they start making more money. The substitution effect on the other hand would most likely cause Tommy to order a smaller steak since it costs more but at the same time order, more salad since the price has not increased as the steak did.

Answers

Answer:

Talia Corp.

Target Selling Price

= $154

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Direct materials =                                           $20

Direct labor =                                                     16

Variable manufacturing overhead =                12

Fixed manufacturing overhead =                    28

Variable selling & administrative expenses = 10

Fixed selling and administrative expenses = 24

Total cost                                                       $110

40% markup on total per unit cost =              44

Target Selling Price =                                  $154

b) Talia bases its target selling price on the addition of 40% of the total cost  to the total cost (including manufacturing costs, selling, and administrative expenses).

Kim hired Gold Contracting to build a pool and a fancy gazebo in her backyard. The plans were complex and required expert workmanship. After the work was completed, Kim was so pleased that she promised to pay Gold an additional $3,500 performance bonus. Later, when Gold demanded the bonus, Kim refused to pay it. If Gold sues Kim for the money, what will probably happen?
A. Gold will win, because the bonus was adequate consideration and served to entice Gold to do an outstanding job.
B. Kim will win, because the bonus is a reward for work they have already performed, which is past consideration and cannot be used to create a contract.
C. Gold will win, because the bonus is for work they have already performed.
D. Kim will win, because the bonus agreement was not in writing.

Answers

Answer:

B. Kim will win, because the bonus is a reward for work they have already performed, which is past consideration and cannot be used to create a contract.

Explanation:

In order for a contract to be enforceable, consideration must be exchanged between both parties. In this case, Kim made a promise that included consideration ($3,500) but Gold didn't exchange of give anything back. The swimming pool is already finished and it represents another different contract.

Another example would be a boss telling a subordinate that he/she will receive a bonus for having worked 10 years in the firm. The employee already got paid for working the 10 years, so there is no actual exchange of new consideration.

The market demand function for corn is Qd = 5 15 - 2P and the market supply function is Qs= 5P- 6, both quantities measured in billions of bushels per year. Suppose the government wants to raise the price to $4 per bushel. What are the aggregate surplus, consumer surplus, and producer surplus at the competitive equilibrium?

Answers

Answer:

The Producer surplus = 19.6.

consumer surplus = 12.25.

Aggregate supply = 31.85.

Explanation:

Normally, the demand equilibrium function equals to supply equilibrium function will get us the price which is $3 that is Qd = Qs. Hence, if we equate both function together like;

15 - 2P = 5P - 6.

15 +6 = 5P + 2P.

21 = 7P.

P = $3.

Thus, Qd = 15 - 2P= 15 - 2(3) = 15 - 6 = 9 units.

Qs = 5P - 6 = 5(3) - 6 = 15 - 6 = 9.

Therefore, if the price is going to be Increased by $4, we will have that;

Qd = 15 - 2P= 15 - 2(4) = 15 - 8 = 7 units.

=> The Producer surplus = 1/2 × 14 (4 - 1.2) = 19.6.

=> consumer surplus = 1/2 × 7 (7.5 - 4) = 12.25.

Aggregate supply = Producer surplus + consumer surplus = 19.6 + 12.25 = 31.85.

A stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1 per share in 2 months and in 5 months. The current stock price is $50, and the continuous compounded risk free interest rate is 8% per annum. An investor has just taken a short position in a 6-month forward contract on the stock.

Required:
a. What is the arbitrage free price of the forward contract?
b. What are the forward price and the initial value of the forward contract?
c. Three months later, the price of the stock is $48 and the risk-free rate of interest is still 8% per annum. What are the forward price and the value of the short position in the forward contract?

Answers

Answer:

b) the initial value of the forward contract is $0

we must determine the present value of the dividends that the stock is expected to pay in order to determine the forward price:

present value of dividends = ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°¹⁶⁷⁾) + ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁴¹⁶⁷⁾) = $1.954

forward price = ($50 - $1.954) · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾ = $50.0068 ≈ $50.01

c) again we first determine the present value of the dividends:

present value of dividends = ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°¹⁶⁷⁾) = $0.9867

forward price = ($48 - $0.9867) · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°²⁵⁾ = $47.963 ≈ $47.96

short forward contract = -[$48 - $0.9867 - ($50.01 · e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°²⁵⁾)] = $2.006 ≈ $2.01

a) in order to determine the arbitrage free forward price, the NPV of our forward price must be 0. It is basically the same answer than (b) only that you calculate it in a different order:

$50 = $1.954 + forward price/e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾

$48.046 = forward price/(1 + e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾

forward price = $48.046 · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾ = $50.006 ≈ $50.01

Ramble On Co. wishes to maintain a growth rate of 8 percent a year, a debt-equity ratio of 0.37, and a dividend payout ratio of 54 percent. The ratio of total assets to sales is constant at 1.41. What profit margin must the firm achieve?

Answers

Answer: 16.55%

Explanation:

Profit margin is the amount of earnings that a company has left when every expenses and costs have been deducted.

From the information given, firstly, we calculate the return on equity. This will be:

= Growth rate /(1 + Growth rate) × Retention ratio

= 8% / (1 + 8%) × 46%

= 0.08/(1 + 0.08) × 0.46

= 0.08/1.08 × 0.46

= 0.08/0.4968

= 0.1610

= 16.10%

Return on equity, ROE = 16.10%

We then calculate the profit margin. This will be:

= ROE / Asset turnover × Equity Multiplier

where,

Equity Multiplier = 1 + debt-equity ratio

= 1 + 0.37 = 1.37

Profit margin = ROE / Asset turnover × Equity Multiplier

= 16.10% / {(1/1.41) × 1.37}

= 16.10% / 0.71 × 1.37

= 0.1610 / 0.9727

= 0.1655

Profit margin = 16.55%

The profit margin is 16.55%,

Calculation of the profit margin:

First we have to determine the return on equity.

So, it should be

= Growth rate /(1 + Growth rate) × Retention ratio

= 8% / (1 + 8%) × 46%

= 0.08/(1 + 0.08) × 0.46

= 0.08/1.08 × 0.46

= 0.08/0.4968

= 0.1610

= 16.10%

Now the profit margin is

= ROE / Asset turnover × Equity Multiplier

= 16.10% / {(1/1.41) × 1.37}

= 16.10% / 0.71 × 1.37

= 0.1610 / 0.9727

= 0.1655

A company had inventory on July 1 of 5 units at a cost of $16 each. On July 2, they purchased 9 units at $28 each. On July 6 they purchased 5 units at $25 each. On July 8, 8 units were sold for $58 each. Using the LIFO periodic inventory method, what was the value of the inventory on July 8 after the sale?

Answers

Answer:

$248

Explanation:

The LIFO inventory method implies that the inventory that was purchased last would be the first to be sold.

Here, we would compute the inventory units as seen below;

= 5 units + 9 units + 5 units - 8 units

= 11 units

Now, the value of inventory is;

= 5 units × $16 + 6 units × $28

= $80 + $168

= $248.

The 6 units come from

= 11 units - 5 units

= 6 units.

Therefore, the value of inventory is $248.

A company manufactures various-sized plastic bottles for its medicinal product. The manufacturing cost for small bottles is $75 per unit (100 bottles), including fixed costs of $28 per unit. A proposal is offered to purchase small bottles from an outside source for $40 per unit, plus $4 per unit for freight.
a. Prepare a differential analysis dated July 31 to determine whether the company should make _______ or buy __________ the bottles, assuming fixed costs are unaffected by the decision.
b. Determine whether the company should make ___________ or buy ________ the bottles.

Answers

Answer:

Part a

Differential analysis to determine whether the company should make or buy  the bottles.

                                                                           Make         Buy

Variable manufacturing costs ($75 - $28)        $47

Purchase price                                                                     $40

Freight charges                                                                      $4

Total Cost                                                            $47           $44

Part b

The Company should Buy instead of making the bottles. This is because it costs $3 more to make the bottles than buying them.

Explanation:

The make or buy decision should be done by considering relevant costs. The fixed costs are irrelevant in this decision hence, we have to ignore them.

The alternative course which gives the lowest cost is the one to go for. This will minimize the costs for the entire business and in turn maximizes the profits of the company.

If there is an excess supply of money in the economy, A. there is also an excess demand for money B. there is also an excess demand for bonds C. there is also an excess supply of bonds D. the interest rate will rise E. the Fed must intervene to restore equilibrium

Answers

Answer: B. there is also an excess demand for bonds

Explanation:

When there is an excess supply of money in the economy, there is also an excess demand for bonds.

This is because in his case, rather than holding money, individuals will want to increase their being holdings and therefore, this will lead to the reduction in their holding of money. Equilibrium will further be restored as there'll be reduction in interest rate.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The number of pairs of ear buds that should be produced for maximizing the profits is

As we know that

MR = MC

Q =  35

And also the price is equal to the MC

Hence, the quantity that should be produced would be 35

b). The total cost of producing ear buds for maximizing the profit is

As we know that

TC = ATC × Q

= 4.5 × 35

= $157.5

c. The weekly profit is

As we know that

Profit = TR - TC

= (P - ATC) × Q

= (6 - 4.5) × 35

= $52.5

d) The weekly profit is  

Profit= (5.5 - 4.25) × 30

= $37.5

e. The normal profit could be earned at the time when the marginal cost is equivalent to the average cost that contains the minimum

Hence, the option a is correct
