Answer: Return to the original output and price level
Explanation:
There is a general consensus in the Economic world that the Economy will usually adjust back to a level of full employment which is the Long Run Aggregate Supply curve.
When the short short-run aggregate supply curve experiences a decrease, the variables at play will adjust to such a point where they will return to the Original Output and price level assuming that was the Long Run AS level. For instance, if the price of a raw material needed in production rises, output will decrease as the inputs have become more expensive. As a result of this decrease in output, unemployment goes up which will theoretically mean that wages will go down as there are now more people looking for jobs. This will reduce the wage cost and producers will take advantage to start producing more bringing the Economy back to the original level.

Haver Company currently produces component RX5 for its sole product. The current cost per unit to manufacture the required 65,000 units of RX5 follows. Direct materials $ 5.00 Direct labor 9.00 Overhead 10.00 Total costs per unit $ 24.00 Direct materials and direct labor are 100% variable. Overhead is 80% fixed. An outside supplier has offered to supply the 65,000 units of RX5 for $18.00 per unit. Required: 1. Determine the total incremental cost of making 65,000 units of RX5. 2. Determine the total incremental cost of buying 65,000 units of RX5. 3. Should the company make or buy RX5
Answer:
1. The total incremental cost of making 65,000 units of RX5
Total Direct Material + Total direct Labour + Variable Overhead cost
Total Direct Material = 65,000 units * $5 = $325,000
Total Direct Labour = 65,000 units * $9 = $585,000
Variable Overhead cost = $65,000 * 10 = $650,000. $650,000 *(1- 80%) = $650,000 *20% = $130,000
Hence, The total incremental cost of making = $325,000 + $585,000 + $130,000 = $1,040,000
2. The total incremental cost of buying 65,000 units of RX5 =
The cost to buy the units = 65,000 units * $18 = $1,170,000
3. The company should be making the RX5 because the total cost of making the 65,000 unit of RX5 is lesser than cost of buying the 65,000 units of RX5
Wages of $8,000 are earned by workers but not paid as of December 31. Depreciation on the company’s equipment for the year is $11,440. The Office Supplies account had a $350 debit balance at the beginning of the year. During the year, $5,367 of office supplies are purchased. A physical count of supplies at December 31 shows $587 of supplies available. The Prepaid Insurance account had a $5,000 balance at the beginning of the year. An analysis of insurance policies shows that $1,800 of unexpired insurance benefits remain at December 31. The company has earned (but not recorded) $700 of interest revenue for the year ended December 31. The interest payment will be received 10 days after the year-end on January 10. The company has a bank loan and has incurred (but not recorded) interest expense of $5,000 for the year ended December 31. The company will pay the interest five days after the year-end on January 5. For each of the above separate cases, prepare adjusting entries required of financial statements for the year ended (date of) December 31.

Interest Receivables 700 debit
Interest Revenue 700 credit
----------------------------------------------------
interest expense 5,000 debit
Interest payable 5,000 credit
----------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
We follow the accountign rinciples: Debit = Credit
And one line per account
and all accounts posted must have a balance
Additional calculations:
Supplies
beginning + purchase = used + ending
350 + 5,367 = used + 587
used supplies = 350 + 5,367 - 587 = 5,130
Insurance
Beginning unexpired - Ending unexired = expired
5,000 - 1,800 = 3,200

Suppose that Rihanna sells 1,000 tickets to a concerts at $480 each. If the equilibrium price is $600 per ticket for a fixed supply of 1,000 tickets, what is the value of the additional economic rent that Rihanna could earn if she charged the market clearing price?
Answer:
$120,000
Explanation:
Calculation of the value of the additional economic rent that Rihanna could earn if she charged the market clearing price
The first step to find the total amount of the tickets that Rihanna sold
Since we were told that she sells 1,000 tickets to a concert at $480, this means the total amount will be:
Total amount = 1,000 * $480
= $480,000.
Since the Supply is fixed for 1,000 tickets and equilibrium price per each ticket is $600 which means the total amount will be calculated as :
Total amount = 1,000 * $600
= $600,000.
The last step is to find the additional economic rent
Additional economic rent=$600,000 - $480,000
Additional economic rent=$120,000.
Therefore the value of the additional economic rent will be $120,000
Environmentalist: The commissioner of the Fish and Game Authority would have the public believe that increases in the number of marine fish caught demonstrate that this resource is no longer endangered. This is a specious argument, as unsound as it would be to assert that the ever-increasing rate at which rain forests are being cut down demonstrates a lack of danger to that resource. The real cause of the increased fish-catch is a greater efficiency in using technologies that deplete resources.
The environmentalist's statements, if true, best support which of the following as a conclusion?
(A) The use of technology is the reason for the increasing encroachment of people on nature.
(B) It is possible to determine how many fish are in the sea in some way other than by catching fish.
(C) The proportion of marine fish that are caught is as high as the proportion of rain forest trees that are cut down each year.
(D) Modern technologies waste resources by catching inedible fish.
(E) Marine fish continue to be an endangered resource.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The main difference between the classical model of the price level and the modern understanding of the relationship between the money supply, the price level, and real GDP is that according to classical economists, _____, while today's economists _____
Answer:
D. classical economists the adjustment of prices to changes in the money supply is instantaneous, while economists today argue that this adjustment process takes some time.
Explanation:
The difference between the classical and modern understanding of the price level is highlighted in the Classical and Keynesian theories. The Classical model assumes that the economy moves towards full employment and is self-adjusting. It also stipulates that prices and wages are flexible based on the demands at the present time. So it simply explains changes in the short-run which automatically resolve themselves without requiring and external help from the government or any other source.
The Keynesian model was developed after the Great Depression when there was massive unemployment. It holds that the economic output reflected in the real GDP, as well as price level, can remain below its optimum potential for a long period of time, thus requiring external factors to stabilize them. Therefore, the adjustment process takes some time to be fully resolved.

In hopes of earning a few dollars on belongings they no longer use or want, some people take their household items to consignment shops, while other people sell their items on eBay. Which method of selling can be argued to have more structural holes?
Answer:
Selling through a consignment shop
Explanation:
Structural holes refer to a situation in which parties in a network are not able to interact.
A consigment shop is a store where you can take things to sell and the owner decides a price to pay and then, the objects are sold to someone else at a higher price and the owner gets a profit.
eBay is an online shopping site that allows people to sell things directly to buyers.
According to this, the answer is that the method of selling that can be argued to have more structural holes is selling through a consignment shop because buyers can't negotiate directly with the sellers which they can do in eBay.
CompuTop Company sells toy laptop computers for $30 each. If the variable cost for each laptop is $20 and fixed costs total $25,000, how many laptops must CompuTop sell to generate a target income of $66,667?
Answer:
$9,166.70
Explanation:
The computation of the number of laptop need to sell is shown below:
= (Fixed expenses + target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)
where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit
= $30 - $20
= $10
And, the fixed cost is $25,000 + profit is $66,667
Now putting these values to the above formula
So, the number of laptops sells is
= ($25,000 + $66,667) ÷ ($10 per unit)
= $9,166.70
Lawrence recently bought a brand new Bentley Mulsanne, a very expensive car, but he is suffering from buyer's remorse. He wishes he would have bought something that made a bigger impression on the ladies at the Taco Bell drivethrough. Howard, however, recently purchased a preowned '86 Camaro with a flame job on the hood from a car dealer, and when he rolls through Taco Bell with the T-tops off, the drive-through ladies are always staring at his car and his mullet hairdo. Howard is far more satisfied with his car than Lawrence. From a marketing point of view, which of the following concepts has contributed to Howard feeling satisfied with this purchase?
a. CRM implementation
b. Howard's full partnership with his '86 Camaro
c. Perceived value of the car
d. Customer loyalty
Answer:
The marketing concept that contributed to Howard feeling satisfied with his purchase of "a preowned '86 Camaro with a flame job on the hood" is
c. Perceived value of the car
Explanation:
Howard evaluates the merits of this preowned '86 Camaro as it has the ability to satisfy his needs for winning the attention of the drive-through ladies at Taco Bell. When he "rolls through the Taco Bell with the T-tops off the ladies keep staring at his car." It is this attention that he needs. And the car investment ensures that he achieves this attention from the ladies. Howard's feeling of satisfaction is accentuated the more when compared with the less-than-impressive attention that Lawrence pools with the girls, while driving his expensive Bentley Mulsanne through the same Taco Bell.
