Over the past year, productivity grew 2%, capital grew 1%, and labor grew 1%. If the elasticities of output with respect to capital and labor are 0.2 and 0.8, respectively, how much did output grow

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The output growth rate is 3%.

Explanation:

Use the growth accounting equation as follow

ΔA% = ΔY% - αΔK% - βΔL%

Where

∆A = change in productivity = 2%

∆K = growth in capital =

∆L = growth in labor =

α = elasticity of capital = 0.2

β = elasticity of labor = 0.8

∆Y = change in output = ?

Placing values in the formula

2% = ΔY% - ( 0.2 x 1% ) – ( 0.8 x 1% )

2% = ΔY% - 1%

ΔY% = 2% + 1%

ΔY% = 3%

Hence, the output growth rate is 3%.

Answer:

i) Loan principal = $178,033 ($176,590 + $443 + $1,000)

ii) Required stock purchase = $1,000

iii) Annual loan payment (fully amortized at 6.19%) is:

= a. $15,032.59

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Required loan amount = $176,590.00

Period of loan = 22 years

Interest rate = 6.19%

Loan fee = $443.00

Stock purchase = lesser of $1,000 or 3.00% of loan amount

= lesser of $1,000 or $5,297.70 ($176,590 * 3%)

i) Loan principal = $178,033 ($176,590 + $443 + $1,000)

ii) Required stock purchase = $1,000

iii) Annual loan payment (fully amortized at 6.19%) = $15,030 approximately :

Answers

Answer:

$32,480

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The incremental income or loss on reworking the units is:

First step is calculate the Net benefit per unit to rework

Incremental revenue from reworking $16.80

($22.60 - $5.80)

Less Incremental cost to rework ($5.20)

Net benefit per unit to rework $11.60

Now let calculate the Incremental income from reworking

Incremental income from reworking= ($11.60 * 2,800 units)

Incremental income from reworking=$32,480

Therefore The incremental income or loss on reworking the units is:$32,480

Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 46,000 units per month is as follows:

Per Unit Direct materials $45.60
Direct labor $8.70
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.70
Fixed manufacturing overhead $18.50
Variable selling & administrative expense $3.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $14.00

The normal selling price of the product is $98.10 per unit.

An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,600 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.80 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.

Variable manufacturing overhead                 $1.70

Fixed manufacturing overhead                   $18.50

Variable selling & administrative expense  $3.00

Fixed selling & administrative expense     $14.00

The normal selling price of the product = $98.10 per unit.

Special order = 2,600 units

Relevant costs:

Total relevant costs per unit                      $57.20

Total variable cost for the special order = $148,720 ($57.20 * 2,600)

Loss sales revenue (1,000 * $98.10)              98,100

Which of the following types of mortgages would be most advantageous to have on your house if you expected the annual rate of inflation would be higher than most people thought?
a. reverse annuity mortgage
b. interest-only mortgage
c. adjustable-rate mortgage
d. fixed-rate mortgage

Answers

Answer:

d. fixed-rate mortgage

Explanation:

Inflation can be defined as the persistent general rise in the price of goods and services in an economy at a specific period of time.

Generally, inflation usually causes the value of money to fall and as a result, it imposes more cost on an economy.

On a related note, when the level of inflation is low in a particular country; their current account balance would be high. However, when the level of inflation is high; it results in low growth and as such increases the home country's current account balance, other things being equal (ceteris paribus).

Hence, if you anticipate a higher annual rate of inflation than most people thought, the fixed-rate mortgage would be most advantageous to have on your house because the interest is fixed or constant over the life of the mortgage loan.

A fixed-rate mortgage can be defined as an installment or fully amortizing mortgage loan that has a fixed (constant) interest rate that doesn't change throughout the entire duration of the loan.

This ultimately implies that, an equal amount of money is paid as principal and interest throughout the life of the mortgage loan.

According to the interest parity condition, if the domestic interest rate is 12 percent and the foreign interest rate is 10 percent, then the expected _________ of the foreign currency must be _________ percent. Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer: Appreciation; 2%

Explanation:

From the information given in the question,

Domestic Interest rate = 12%

Foreign interest rate = 10%

Let's assume,

S = spot exchange rate

F = forward exchange rate,

Based on the per interest rate parity, the forward exchange rate will be:

F = S × (1 + 10%) / (1 + 12%) = 0.98x

F = S × (1+0.1)/(1+0.12) = 0.98x

Therefore, the forward exchange rate will be expected to fall by:

= 1 - 0.98

= 0.2

= 2%

Midsouth Stitchery wants to improve their productivity. Their process yield is currently 91.56% based on 9816 yards of material. If they are going to improve their productivity to 92.10, how many yards of finished material will they have to produce from the same amount of material input

Answers

Answer:

9,040.54 yards

Explanation:

Input material amount I = 9,816 yards

Productivity P = 92.10%

Let Output Material amount be O

O = I * P

O = 9,816 yards * 0.9210

O = 9040.536

O = 9040.54 yards

So, the unit of yards they will have to produce from the same amount of material input is 9,040.54 yards

In the short run, open-market purchases a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates. b. increase real GDP and interest rates, and decrease investment. c. increase investment and interest rates, and decrease real GDP. d. decrease investment, interest rates, and real GDP.

Answers

Answer: a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates.

Explanation:

During an Open Market Purchase, the central bank of the country would be buying back securities from the public which means that it would be infusing money into the economic system.

With an increased amount of money in the economy, people will be able to save more which means that interests rate will drop because there are now more loanable funds. This drop in interest rates will encourage more companies and people to borrow cash for investment which will then lead to a higher GDP.

In the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

The interest rate has been the amount of interest lent onto the principal sum. The GDP has been the gross domestic product that has been the market value of the final products.

In the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in the amount of money in the market. The government has been buying the securities and results in the market flow of money. The market flow will eventually result in an increase in the GDP with the decreased interest rates.

Thus in the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.
