Marquis is interested in the relationship between drinking coffee and esophageal cancer. He decides to look at surveys for the Lehman College Class of 2019 as a source of data. He tabulates the total cases of esophageal cancer that were reported as well as those members of the class who did not report esophageal cancer. He then calls all of those people and asks them if they can remember drinking coffee in 2010 and, if yes, about how much coffee did they drink daily, among other questions related to potential exposures, i.e. exercise, BMI, stress, etc. Which form of bias is likely to impact the measure of association reported in Marquis’s study?
a. sampling bias
b. recall bias
c. interviewer bias
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
In simple words, Recall bias can be understood as the systematic mistake that happens when individuals do not properly recall or omit information from past events or situations. The reliability and quantity of recollections can be impacted by future activities and situations.
In the given case, the interview asking the sample something that is not easy to remember. Drinking coffee and how much did they drink is not a valid question as this is too fragile to remember.
Agreement and disagreement among economists
Suppose that Yakov, an economist from a business school in Georgia, and Ana, an economist from a public television program, are arguing over budget deficits. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate:
Ana: Most people recognize that the budget deficit has been rising considerably over the last century. We need to find the best course of action to remedy this situation.
Yakov: I believe that a cut in income tax rates would boost economic growth and raise tax revenue enough to reduce budget deficits.
Ana: I actually feel that raising the top income tax rate would reduce the budget deficit more effectively.
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to ___.
Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?
A. Rent cellings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
B. Immigrants receive more in government benefits than they contribute in taxes.
C. Having a single income tax rate would improve economic performance.
Answer:
differing opinions on the point we are on the Laffer Curve
A
Explanation:
The Laffer Curve is a supply side economic theory developed by Arthur Laffer in 1974.
The curve depicts the relationship between tax rates and tax revenue
According to this theory, higher income tax rate reduces the incentive of labour to work and invest due to the fact that labour would have to pay higher tax. This means that at some point, increase in the tax rate would decrease government revenue rather than increase it.
The theory submits that there is an optimal tax rate at which tax income is maximised. Once this point is surpassed, increase in tax rate would reduce government revenue
Price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a product. It is binding when it is set below equilibrium price.
Effects of a binding price ceiling
1. It leads to shortages
2. it leads to the development of black markets
3. it prevents producers from raising price beyond a certain price
4. It lowers the price consumers pay for a product. This increases consumer surplus
A rent ceiling would lead to shortage of houses and a reduction of the quality of available housing.

n January 1, 2018, the Shagri Company began construction on a new manufacturing facility for its own use. The building was completed in 2019. The only interest-bearing debt the company had outstanding during 2018 was long-term bonds with a book value of $11,600,000 and an effective interest rate of 11%. Construction expenditures incurred during 2018 were as follows: January 1 $ 660,000 March 1 696,000 July 31 576,000 September 30 760,000 December 31 460,000 Required: Calculate the amount of interest capitalized for 2018.
Answer:
$183,700
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of interest capitalized for 2018.
First step is to calculate the Accumlated expenditure
Date Expenditure * Weight = Average
January 1 660000 * 12/12 =660,000
March 1 696000 * 10/12 = 580,000
July 31 576000 * 5/12 = 240,000
September 30 760000 * 3/12 =190,000
December 31 460000 * 0/12 = 0
Accumulated expenditure=660,000+580,000+240,000+190,000
Accumulated expenditure=$1,670,000
Now let determine the amount of interest capitalized for 2018
Interest capitalized for 2018=$1,670,000 * 11%
Interest capitalized for 2018=$183,700
Therefore the amount of interest capitalized for 2018 is $183,700
Which of the following is an an example of a sunk cost?
a. Jossie purchases a textbook online but returns it because it is the wrong edition
b. Maria goes to a lunch vending machine to get a quick snack. In her haste, she mistakenly pushes the wrong buttons and gets a wheatgrass sandwich instead of hot pocket she was craving.
c. Kennys new smartphone stops working, but it is still under warranty, so he is able to have it repaired at no cost.
d. Antonio goes to the movies. After the opening credits, he realizes he is in the wrong theater. He informs the manager and is able to get a refund.
Answer:
Option b is correct.
Explanation:
Option b is correct.
The sunk cost is the cost that has been incurred and which can not be recovered. Thus, anycost that can not be recovered is called the sunk cost. Therefore, the option 'b' that states pushing wrong button and getting a wheatgrass sandwich is the sunk cost because it can not be returned.
The Cavendish Company is considering a project with an initial investment of $8 million that has an accounting rate of return of 25%. The project will generate an annual net cash flow of $1.75 million and annual net operating income of $2 million. What is the project's payback period?
Answer:
4 years and 2 months
Explanation:
The project's payback period is the length of time that the future cash flows take to equal the initial investment of the project.
Initial Investment = $8 million
Annual cash flows = $1.75 million
It will take 4 years and 2 months ($1 million /$8 million x 12) for annual cashflows to equal the Initial Investment of $8 million.

If the price level is 100 for 1996 and the price level is 103.3 in 1998, a nominal GDP in 1998 of $8,800 billion would mean that real GDP in 1998 (in 1996 prices) would be closest to:_______
a. $9.090.4 billion.
b. $8,518.9 billion.
c. $8,800 billion.
d. $8696.7 billion
Answer: b. $8,518.9 billion.
Explanation:
Nominal GDP is calculated with current prices which means that the effects of inflation are present.
Real GDP removes this effect by basing the GDP calculation on the prices of a previous period:
Real GDP = Nominal GDP * 100/ Price level
= 8,800 * 100/ 103.3
= $8,518.877
= $8,518.9 billion

3. This cost has a component that remains the same over all volume levels and another component that increases in direct proportion to increases in volume. ⇒ MIXED COST
4. This cost increases when volume increases, but the increase is not constant for each unit produced. ⇒ CURVELINEAR COST.
5. This cost remains constant over all volume levels within the productive capacity for the planning period.⇒ FIXED COST.
6. This cost increases in direct proportion to increases in volume; its amount is constant for each unit produced. ⇒ VARIABLE COST.
On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 12% note payable, with a face value of $10,800. What is the maturity value of the note on March 1? (Use 360 days a year.)
a) $11,016
b) $10,800
c) $11,088
d) $11,232
e) $10,944
Answer: $11232
Explanation:
The maturity value of the note on March 1 will be calculated as thus:
Face value = $10800
Interest on note = $10800 × 12% × 120/360 = $432
Maturity value will now be:
= Face value + Interest on note
= $10800 + $432
= $11232
g An increase in the interest rate: has no effect on investment. may be caused by a drop in investment demand. increases planned investment because people who make money from interest have more money to invest. reduces planned investment because the interest rate is the cost of borrowing to finance investment projects.
Answer:
reduces planned investment because the interest rate is the cost of borrowing to finance investment projects.
Explanation:
There is an inverse relationship between interest rate and planned investment.
The higher interest rate is, the lower planned investment. This is because interest rate is the cost of borrowing. An higher interest rate means the cost of borrowing would increase.
On the other hand, a lower interest rate increases planned investment. This is because a lower interest rate means that the cost of borrowing would reduce.

Management aims to minimize the time from the beginning of the selling process to the end of cash collections so as to be liquid and avoid bad debts.
Assume each firm within an industry has similar operations and financial structures as the industry as a whole. Which one of these statements related to beta is correct given this assumption?
a. Industry betas are less reliable than firm betas.
b. Firms should use their own betas rather than the industry beta.
c. Betas should be computed on an annual basis.
d. The error in beta estimation for a single security exceeds the error for a portfolio of securities.
e. All firms in the industry will have the same beta.
Answer: D. The error in beta estimation for a single security exceeds the error for a portfolio of securities.
Explanation:
If each firm within an industry has identical operations and thesame financial structures as the industry as a whole, then the error in beta estimation for a single security exceeds the error for a portfolio of securities.
It should be noted that all the firms in the industry will not have the same beta. Also, betas should not be computed on an annual basis. Therefore, the correct option is D.
Which of the following entries could be considered as an adjusting entry? Group of answer choices Debit to Cash and Credit to Revenues Debit to Cash and Credit to Liabilities Credit to Cash and Debit to Expenses Debit to Expenses and Credit to Liabilities
Answer:
The entry that could be considered as an adjusting entry is:
Debit to Expenses and Credit to Liabilities
Explanation:
For example, to accrue salaries expenses in an accounting period when the cash payments have not been made, the Salaries Expenses account is debited with the amount of the unpaid salaries while the corresponding credit entry goes to the Salaries Payable account. Depreciation expense is also debited while the corresponding credit entry is made in the accumulated depreciation account.

(f) Find the present value of an investment that will pay $3,000 at the end of Years 10, 11, and 12. Use a discount rate of 8%.
Answer:
PV= $3,867.67
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Find the present value of an investment that will pay $3,000 at the end of Years 10, 11, and 12. Use a discount rate of 8%.
First, we will determine the future value of the payments:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual payment
FV= {3,000*[(1.08^3) - 1]} / 0.08
FV= $9,732.2
Now, the present value:
PV= FV / (1 + i)^n
PV= 9,732.2 / (1.08^12)
PV= $3,867.67

Suppose that a Country Club is considering what price to charge for adults. They know that if they charge a price of $100 then 70 adults will join and if they charge a price of $120 then 50 adults will join. What is the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand for adults at this Country Club
Answer:
1.43
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Price =120 /100 - 1 = 0.2
Quantity = 50/ 70 - 1 = 0.2857
0.2857 / 0.2 = 1.43
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price
p = 0,2
=0.2857
A justification for job training programs is that they improve worker productivity. Suppose that you are asked to evaluate whether more job training makes workers more productive. However, rather than having data on individual workers, you have access to data on manufacturing firms in Ohio. In particular, for each firm, you have information on hours of job training per worker (training) and number of non-defective items produced per worker (output).
Required:
a. Carefully state the ceteris paribus thought experiment underlying this policy question.
b. Does it seem likely that a firm’s decision to train its workers will be independent ofworker characteristics? What are some of those measurable and unmeasurable workercharacteristics?
c. Name a factor other than worker characteristics that can affect worker productivity.
d. If you find a positive correlation between output and training, would you haveconvincingly established that job training makes workers more productive? Explain.
Solution :
a). There is a way to state the question :
If there are two firms, firm A and firm B. Both the forms are same in all the respects but differ in only one thing, that firm A provides job training 1 hour per worker more than the number of hours of training of firm B, by how much the output of firm A would differ than the output from firm B?
b). The manufacturing firms that are located in Ohio will provide the job training based on the characteristics of workers. Some of the determining factors includes years of schooling, experience in a particular job, etc. The firms can even consider the worker's age, race or gender. The training will be provided to the less efficient workers based on their ability.
c). The amount of the capital as well as the technology that is available to the workers would affect the output of the firm. Thus the firms having the same kind of employees would have different outputs when the firms used different technology or different amount of capital.
d). No, unless the training is randomly assigned. The factors are listed above which can contribute to the finding of a positive correlation between the output and the training even when the job training does not improve the productivity of the worker.
