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

Answers

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.  

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?

Answers

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

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

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.

Answers

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

Identify deficiencies in Wagner's participative budgetary policy for planning and performance evaluation purposes

Answers

Question Completion:

Behavioral Considerations and Budgeting Anthony Wagner, the controller in the Division of Transportation for the state, recognizes the im ance of the budgetary process for planning, control, and motivation purposes. He believes that properly implemented participative budgeting process for planning purposes and a management by exception reporting procedure based on that budget will motivate his subordinates to improve productivity within their particular departments. Based on this philosophy, Wagner has implemented the following budget procedures:

An appropriation target figure is given to each department manager. This amount is the maximum funding that each department can expect to receive in the next fiscal year Department managers develop their individual budgets within the following spending constraint as directed by the controller's staff:

1. Expenditure requests cannot exceed the appropriation target

2. All fixed expenditures should be included in the budget: these should include items such . . as contracts and salaries at current levels

3. All government projects directed by higher authority should be included in the budget in their entirety. The controller consolidates the departmental budget requests from the various departments into one budget that is to be submitted for the entire division. Upon final budget approval by the legislature, the controller's staff allocates the appropriation to the various departments on instructions from the division manager. However, a specified percentage of each department's appropriation is held back in anticipation of potential budget cuts and special funding needs. The amount and use of this contingency fund are left to the discretion of the division manager Each department is allowed to adjust its budget when necessary to appropriation level. However, as stated in the original directive, specific projects authorized b higher authority must remain intact. The final budget is used as the basis of control for a management by exception form of reporting. Excessive expenditures by account for each department are highlighted on a monthly basis. Department managers are expected to account for all expenditures over budget. Fiscal responsibility is an important factor in the overall performance evaluation of department managers .Each department is allowed to adjust its budget when necessary to operate within the reduced · Wagner believes that his policy of allowing the department managers to participate in the budget process and then holding them accountable for their performance is essential, e these times of limited resources.

Answer:

Deficiencies in Wagner's Participative Budgeting Policy

1. Fixed costs are not controllable by managers.  This defeats, to a large extent, the idea of participative budgeting policy by Wagner as his departmental managers' performances are evaluated based on goals they have not set for themselves.

2. Wagner's participative budgetary policy allows him to revise some approved budgets arbitrarily without seeking the participation of divisional managers in the revision.  This negatives the principle of participation.

Explanation:

An effective participating budgeting process ensures the utilization of specialist knowledge of the participants who are close to the daily operations of their departments. An effective process ensures the setting of more realistic and acceptable goals.  A good participative budgetary policy wins managers' commitment, improves communication and accountability, and ensures group cohesiveness.

What is the yield to maturity for an SWH Corporation bond on January 1, 2010 if the market price of the bond on that date is $950

Answers

Answer:

6.23%

Explanation:

From Jan 2019 to Jan 2010 = 9 years

N = 9 years*2 = 18

PV = $950

Coupon payment = $27.5 (1000*5.5%/2)

FV = $1000

We need to solve for YTM using the MsExcel function

Yield to maturity = YTM(n, pv, pmt, fv) * 2

Yield to maturity = YTM(18, 950, 27.5, 1000) * 2

Yield to maturity = 0.03117 * 2

Yield to maturity = 0.06234

Operating income = $105600

Operating assets = $419800

Margin = (Income*100/Revenue) = $105600*100/$1006000 = 10.50%

Turnover = (Turnover/Assets) = $1006000/$419800 = 2.4 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = 105600*100/419800 = 25.15%

Residual Income = (105600-419800*12%) = $55224

DIVISION Y

Revenues = $298200*1 = $298200

Operating income = $298200*14% = $41748

Operating assets = $298200

Margin = 14%

Turnover = 1 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = $41748*100/$298200 = 14%

Residual Income = (41748-298200*12%) = $5964

You are scheduled to receive $34,000 in two years. When you receive it, you will invest it for 7 more years at 7.5 percent per year. How much will you have in 9 years

Answers

Answer: $65186.16

Explanation:

Since the individual is scheduled to receive $34,000 in two years and will then invest it for 7 more years at 7.5 percent per year. The amount that the person will have in 9 years will be:

FV = PV(1 + rate)^n

where,

PV = present value = $34000

Rate = 7.5% = 0.075

n = number of years = 7

FV = 34000 × (1 + 7.5%)^9

FV = 34000 × (1 + 0.075)^9

FV = 34000 × 1.075^9

FV = 34000 × 1.91724

FV = $65186.16

The amount in 9 years will be $65186.16

If the bank is offering a 6 ​% interest​ rate, compounded​ annually, how much will the CD be worth at maturity if Jonathan picks a a. two ​-year investment​ period? b.  six ​-year investment​ period? c.  ten ​-year investment​ period? d.  fifteen ​-year investment​ period?

Answers

Answer:

A = P * (1 + r/n)^nt. Where A = Maturity amount = ? P = Principal amount = $8,000, r = Rate of interest = 6%, n = Number of compounding per year = 1, t = Number of year

a. t = 2

A = $8,000 * (1 + 0.06/1)^1*2

A = $8,000 * (1.06)^2

A = $8,000 * 1.1236

A = $8,988.80

b. t = 6

A = $8,000 * (1 + 0.06/1)^1*6

A = $8,000 * (1.06)^6

A = $8,000 * 1.418519

A = 11348.152

A = $11,348.15

c. t = 10

A = $8,000 * (1 + 0.06/1)^1*10

A = $8,000 * (1.06)^10

A = $8,000 * 1.7908477

A = 14326.7816

A = $14,326.78

d. t = 15

A = $8,000 * (1 + 0.06/1)^1*15

A = $8,000 * (1.06)^15

A = $8,000 * 2.3965581931

A = 19172.4655448

A = $19,172.47

The diameter of a brand of tennis balls is approximately normally​ distributed, with a mean of 2.56

inches and a standard deviation of 0.04

inch. A random sample of 11

tennis balls is selected. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) below.

Answers

Answer:

sample mean = 2.63 inches

sample standard deviation = \frac{standard \hspace{0.15cm} deviation}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{0.03}{\sqrt{9} } = \frac{0.03}{3} = 0.01

b) P(X < 2.61) = 0.0228

c.) P(2.62 < X < 2.64) = 0.6827

d.) Therefore 0.06 = P(2.6292 < X < 2.6307)

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the diameter of a brand of tennis balls is approximately normally distributed.

ii) mean = 2.63 inches

iii) standard deviation = 0.03 inches

iv) random sample of 9 tennis balls

v) sample mean = 2.63 inches

vi) sample standard deviation = \frac{standard \hspace{0.15cm} deviation}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{0.03}{\sqrt{9} } = \frac{0.03}{3} = 0.01

=0.01

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)

what is least likely to get managers to act in best interest of the owner threat of a prozy fight stock option plans

Answers

Answer:

The least likely to get managers to act in the best interest of the owner is:

stock option plans.

Explanation:

But with the threat of a proxy fight, managers get up to speed, acting in the best interest of the owners of the firm because their jobs are at stake.  The main purpose of a proxy fight is the removal of the current management of the firm.  During a proxy fight, contest, or battle, some shareholders in a company attempt to oppose and vote out the current management or board of directors.  On the other hand, stock option plans reward managers with employee ownership rights at discounted prices.

Turner Enterprises is analyzing a project that is expected to have annual cash flows of $77,400, $21,300 and -$6,200 for Years 1 to 3, respectively. The initial cash outlay is $84,900 and the discount rate is 11 percent. What is the modified IRR

Answers

Answer:

8.26%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the modified IRR

First step is to calculate the Modified Year 2 cash flow

Modified Year 2 cash flow = $21,300 + (-$6,200)/1.11

Modified Year 2 cash flow= $15,714.41

Now let determine the Modified IRR

Modified IRR:$0 = -$84,900 + $77,400/(1 + IRR) + $15,714.41/(1+ IRR)^2

Modified IRR= 8.26%

Therefore the modified IRR is 8.26%
