291. Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the projection of increasing consumer spending this year. . A. projection of increasing consumer spending B. projection of consumers increasing spending for C. projected consumer spending increase 37 D. consumer spending that is projected to increase E. increase in consumer spending that is projected for
Answer:
The correct answer is E:
Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the increase in consumer spending that is projected for.
Explanation:
i. Much of the hope (this is the main Subject of the conversation)
ii. for continued improvement (this is the Prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “hope”)
iii. of the economy (this is a Prepositional phrase – it modifies the noun “improvement”)
iv. lies in the projection (This is the main Verb – “lies”)
v. of increasing consumer spending this year. (This is the prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “projection”)
At first glance, it would appear that the positive experience that is anticipated is the projection.
A projection (unqualified) in this case is an estimate of how a thing will be in the future.
Having stated this, we see that it is more logical to hope for a positive experience that will occur than to just hope. Hence the hope is really in the increase in consumer spending not in the projection as a separate word.
(E) therefore is the Correct option because in this option that in this option “that” modifies “increase”.

For example, the sticky-price theory asserts that the output prices of some goods and services adjust slowly to changes in the price level. Suppose firms announce the prices for their products in advance, based on an expected price level of 100 for the coming year. Many of the firms sell their goods through catalogs and face high costs of reprinting if they change prices. The actual price level turns out to be 90. Faced with high menu costs, the firms that rely on catalog sales choose not to adjust their prices. Sales from catalogs will _____________.
Answer:
fall
Explanation:
We know that when demand for goods and services are low, this can impact prices since there would be a fall in sales. This happened due to the fact that people would reduce their demand for the good given the increase in their price. From the question that we have here we have been told that the prices that were set by the catalogue when compared to the actual price level is on the high side.
given this explanation, the conclusion is that the sales from catalogues are going to fall
On April 1, 2021, Austere Corporation issued $320,000 of 15% bonds at 106. Each $1,000 bond was sold with 40 detachable stock warrants, each permitting the investor to purchase one share of common stock for $19. On that date, the market value of the common stock was $16 per share and the market value of each warrant was $3. Austere should record what amount of the proceeds from the bond issue as an increase in liabilities
Answer:
$300,800
Explanation:
First Calculate the proceeds from the issuance of the bond
Proceeds from bonds = Face value x Price rate = $320,000 x 106% = $339,200
Now calculate the fair value of the warrant issued
Fair value of warrant = Numbers of shares x Stock per bond x Market value of each Warrant = ( $320,000 / $1,000 ) x 40 x $3 = 320 x 40 x $3 = $38,400
Liability Portion = Procedds from bonds - Fair value of waarants = $339,200 - $38,400 = $300,800
Scenario: Over the last several months, there has been a rapid increase in the number of loans that banks have provided for mortgages and small businesses. This change has raised concerns for the Fed. Today, the Fed has announced an increase in the interest rates that it is charging banks. In this scenario, what is the Fed trying to do by increasing interest rates
Answer:
Decrease the total spending.
Explanation:
When the number of loanable funds market is high, interest rates are low, which thereby insentivises spending. Banks will loan out more and thus the economy will be in a short-term expansionary phase. The feds will implement an increase in interest rate via fiscal policies and decrease the overall spending.
This is known as *crowding out*.
State the type of skewness for a frequency distribution whose three quartiles are 21, 18 and 20.
Answer:
Left skew
Explanation:
Given the quartiles of a distribution :
21, 18 and 20
Lower quartile, Q1 = 18
Median, Q2 = 20
Upper quartile, Q3 = 21
Representing the quartiles of the distribution as box plot, we can see that the median, Q2 is much closer to the third quartile, Q3, Than it is to the first quartile, Q1. Hence, we have a left skew or a negatively skewed distribution.

Absolute advantage is the ability of an individual, firm, or country to produce: A. a certain good at a lower opportunity cost than other producers. B. more of a certain good than other competing producers, given the same number of resources. C. more of a certain good than other competing producers, given more resources. D. a certain good at a lower total cost than other producers.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is the ability of an individual, firm, or country to produce B. more of a certain good than other competing producers, given the same number of resources.
The term "absolute advantage" refers to the 'authority or power of an individual, firm, or country to do any economic activity that is more efficient than others. In other words, it is when a particular business is given the opportunity to produce goods more efficiently than others.
In economics, there are two types of advantages- absolute and comparative advantage. Absolute is where an individual firm, company, etc. is given the right to produce a better goods with a lesser labor force. On the other hand, comparative advantage is where the production cost is taken into consideration. This means that an individual firms or nation may be subjected to lower opportunity costs as compared to other producers.The economic concept where production rights are given more to a particular firm or nation or even an individual is referred to as absolute advantage. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A plaintiff sued a chimney sweeping company for personal injury and property damages resulting from an explosion in her chimney the evening after the company had cleaned it. The explosion, which occurred when the plaintiff lit a fire in the fireplace, caused minor damage to the chimney, roof, and to the plaintiff, who was hit by falling bricks. As evidence that she assumed the risk of injury, the company offers to have its foreman testify that he had told the plaintiff not to use the fireplace for 24 hours to allow certain chemicals to evaporate. Is the foreman's proposed testimony hearsay
Answer:
No, because the statement is not offered for its truth.

Answer:
a channel member bypassing another member to sell or buy product directly.
Explanation:
A marketing channel can be defined as the process of developing marketing techniques and sales strategies by a firm, so as to enhance the availability of goods and services to meet the needs of the end users or consumers. There are four (4) main types of marketing channels;
1. Direct selling.
2. Dual distribution.
3. Reverse channel.
4. Sales through intermediaries.
The marketing intermediaries consist of retailers, wholesalers, agents or brokers, franchises, and distributors or dealers in the supply of goods and services to the customers.
The three (3) main functions of the intermediaries includes;
I. Logistical function: it involves assortment, sorting, storing and transportation of goods.
II. Transactional function: it involves an intermediary buying, selling and taking risks with respect to goods and services.
III. Facilitating function: it involves financing, marketing, grading and conducting research on a product or service.
Disintermediation can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves cutting out or isolating one or more intermediary (middleman) such as retailers, wholesalers, banks, agents (brokers), franchises, distributors (dealers) and other third parties from a supply chain, decision-making process, or business transactions.
This ultimately implies that, disintermediation involves a channel member bypassing another member to sell or buy product directly.

Olivia bought a $1,874 sprinkler system with her credit card. Her credit card has an APR of 10.31%, compounded monthly. She made no other purchases on the card until the sprinkler system was fully paid for, which took four years of identical monthly payments. Over the eight years that Olivia kept the sprinkler system, it used an average of $2.11 in water per week. After eight years, what percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system did the original price make up
Answer:
Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = 59.07%
Explanation:
The monthly payments for the sprinkler system can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or original price of the sprinkler = $1,874
P = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = APR / 12 = 10.31% / 12 = 0.1031 / 12 = 0.00859166666666667
n = number of months = number of years of payment * 12 = 4 * 12 = 48
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve P, we have:
$1,874 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00859166666666667))^48) / 0.00859166666666667)
$1,874 = P * 39.1976732321759
P = $1,874 / 39.1976732321759
P = $47.81
Therefore, we have:
Total payment for the sprinkler = Monthly payments * Number of months = P * n = $47.81 * 48 = $2,294.88
Total cost in water = Cost in water per week * Number of weeks in a year * Number of years that Olivia kept the sprinkler system = $2.11 * 52 * 8 = $877.76
Total lifetime cost of the system = Total payment for the sprinkler + Total cost in water = $2,294.88 + $877.76 = $3,172.64
Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = (Original price of the sprinkler / Total lifetime cost of the system) * 100 = ($1,874 / $3,172.64) * 100 = 59.07%

(Step by step explanation)
A firm has a demand function p=108-5q and the cost function c=-12q+q^2. find the price at which profit is maximum. find the maximum profit. also find the output for maximum cost.
Answer:
[tex](a)\ q=3.5[/tex]
[tex](b)\ t_{max} = 120.25[/tex]
(c) No maximum
Explanation:
Given
[tex]p = 108 - 5q[/tex]
[tex]c = -12q + q^2[/tex]
Solving (a): The price at maximum profit.
The profit (t) is calculated using the following function
[tex]t = p - c[/tex] --- price- cost
So, we have:
[tex]t = 108 - 5q - (-12q + q^2)[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]t = 108 - 5q +12q - q^2[/tex]
[tex]t = 108 +7q - q^2[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]t = - q^2 + 7q + 108[/tex] --- this is the profit function
A quadratic function is represented as:
[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]
The maximum is:
[tex]x = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
By comparison:
[tex]q = -\frac{7}{2*-1}[/tex]
[tex]q=3.5[/tex] ----- price at maximum profit
Solving (b): The maximum profit
The profit function is:
[tex]t = - q^2 + 7q + 108[/tex]
The maximum is:
[tex]t_{max} = -3.5^2 + 7 * 3.5 +108[/tex]
[tex]t_{max} = 120.25[/tex]
Solving (c): Maximum cost
We have:
[tex]c = -12q + q^2[/tex]
The maximum price of the above function is:
[tex]q = -\frac{-12}{2*1}[/tex] ---- from x = -b/2a
[tex]q = \frac{12}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q = 6[/tex]
So, the maximum cost is:
[tex]c_{max} = -12 * 6 + 6^2[/tex]
[tex]c_{max} = -36[/tex]
The cost function has no maximum; only minimum
