hoose the statement that is incorrect. A. The consensus is that the crowding-out effect is strong enough to make the government expenditure multiplier less than 1. B. The government expenditure multiplier is the quantitative effect of a change in government expenditure on real GDP. C. The tax multiplier is the quantitative effect of a change in taxes on real GDP. D. The demand-side effects of a tax cut are likely to be larger than an equivalent increase in government expenditure
Answer: D. The demand-side effects of a tax cut are likely to be larger than an equivalent increase in government expenditure
Explanation:
There is now a consensus amongst economists that an increase in Government spending will have larger demand-side effects than a tax cut. This is because Government spending goes directly into the economy and stimulates growth through the ripple effect that it has that will see money multiplied.
Tax cuts on the other hand are only effective if consumers either consume the tax savings or invest them. While they will do this for most of the savings, there is a high probability that they will save some of them instead of spending them.
The exchange rate is: the price of one nation's currency in terms of the currency of another nation. the amount households will spend on imports. the amount of foreign capital a nation receives when there is a trade surplus. the amount charged by bankers for loanable funds
Answer: the price of one nation's currency in terms of the currency of another nation.
Explanation: The rate of exchange can simply be explained as the worth or value of a country's currency in terms of the currency of another country. It gives an aggregate amount of the value of currency held by a certain person or spent in a particular country in terms of the currency of choice in another country. The exchange rate of currencies is usually determined by the market forces of demand and supply even though some aren't. For example, the rate at which one can convert a certain amount of British pounds to it's equivalent amount in U.S dollar is the exchange rate of British pounds to U.S dollars.

The USDA maintains ethanol has an impact on food prices. "Higher ethanol production definitely and directly raises the price of corn," said USDA economist Ephraim Leibtag. In the long run in the corn market, what is true if the production of ethanol increases?
Answer:
new corn farmers will enter the market and decrease the market price.
Explanation:
In regards to the information provided, it can be said that in a long term perspective if the production of ethanol keeps increasing then new corn farmers will enter the market and decrease the market price. This is because as ethanol production increases, so does the price of corn. This will continue up to a certain point were profitability for farmers is high and many new farmers will enter the market hoping to profit from the corn as well. All these new farmers will drastically increase the production of corn and as the supply of corn rises the prices will begin to fall.
Several controls are used to safeguard inventory except a.keeping high-priced inventory behind lock and key. b.hiring security guards. c.allowing all employees access to the materials warehouse. d.installing sensors at all exits.
Answer:
Option C, allowing all employees access to the materials warehouse, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Option C is the correct answer because option C recommends allowing access to all the employees. However, allowing access to all employees will reduce security and increase the risk level.

Offshore oil-drilling operations entail an unavoidable risk of an oil spill, but importing oil on tankers presently entails an even greater such risk per barrel of oil. Therefore, if we are to reduce the risk of an oil spill without curtailing our use of oil, we must invest more in offshore operations and import less oil on tankers.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above.
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill.
B) Oil spills caused by tankers have generally been more serious than those caused by offshore operations.
C) The impact of offshore operations on the environments can be controlled by careful management.
D) Offshore operations usually damage the ocean floor, but tankers rarely cause such damage.
E) Importing oil on tankers is currently less expensive than drilling for it offshores.
Answer:
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill.
Explanation:
The option that if true most seriously weakens the argument above is: tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill because the statement says that importing oil on tankers entails a greater risk of an oil spill than offshore oil-drilling and the option chosen directly talks about that and says that the tankers can easily be redesigned to decrease the risks of an oil spill which goes against the argument given.
The other options are not right because the options B and C support the argument given. Also, options D and E doesn't talk about oil spill which is the topic on the argument presented.
A country has been in existence for only two years. In the first year, receipts were $1.0 million and outlays were $1.5 million. In the second year, receipts were $1.5 million and outlays were $2.0 million. At the end of the second year, the government had issued debt worth ______.
Answer: $1 million
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a country has been in existence for only two years and that in the first year, receipts were $1.0 million and outlays were $1.5 million. Since outlays us more than revenue, it shows that there's a debt of ($1.5m - $1.0m) = $0.5 million.
In the second year, receipts were $1.5 million and outlays were $2.0 million. This also shows that there is a debt of $0.5 million.
At the end of the second year, the government had issued debt worth:
= $0.5 million + $0.5 million
= $1 million

McCoy's Fish House purchases a tract of land and an existing building for $940,000. The company plans to remove the old building and construct a new restaurant on the site. In addition to the purchase price, McCoy pays closing costs, including title insurance of $2,400. The company also pays $12,800 in property taxes, which includes $8,400 of back taxes (unpaid taxes from previous years) paid by McCoy on behalf of the seller and $4,400 due for the current fiscal year after the purchase date. Shortly after closing, the company pays a contractor $47,000 to tear down the old building and remove it from the site. McCoy is able to sell salvaged materials from the old building for $3,800 and pays an additional $10,400 to level the land.
Required: Determine the amount McCoy's Fish House should record as the cost of the land. (Amounts to be deducted should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer:
$1,004,400
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of land is shown below:-
The Total cost of land = Purchase price of the land + Title Insurance + Property Taxes + Cost of removing the building + Level the land - Salvaged materials
= $940,000 + $2,400 + $8,400 + $47,000 + $10,400 - $3,800
= $1,004,400
Therefore for computing the total cost of land we simply applied the above formula.
Trina's property is listed with Avalon Homes. The market is a little slow, and Trina's listing is a high-end home, where sales are even slower. She's had several showings, but no offers. The term of the listing agreement is nearly over. What happens when the termination date is reached?
Answer: Listing expires and terminated
Explanation: In the scenario above, Avalon homes only serves to aid the sale of Trina's property and as such will not be held liable for any offense if the property isn't sold within the listing period. Avalon homes isnt responsible for either the slow nature of market at the time or the fact that Trina's property belongs to the high end category which often takes even more time to get a buyer for. Therefore, once the contract period of Trina's listing is reached, the listing expires and it's terminated unless another listing contract is struck between both parties.

a) true
b) false
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Under a just-in-time inventory system, a company can reduce the amount of working capital it needs to finance inventory, freeing capital for other uses and/or lowering the total capital requirements of the enterprise.
In Business management, Just-in-time (JIT) is an inventory management method used by a company wherein goods, products, components, and labor are made available exactly when needed or just few hours before they are needed in the production process.
Basically, It is an inventory management system that companies use to reduce wastage to the barest minimum, thereby, freeing capital for other uses and/or lowering the total capital requirements of the enterprise.
Hence, just-in-time when used judiciously can help a company reduce the amount of working capital it needs to finance inventory management.
Using the assembly-line balancing procedure, which of the following is the required cycle time in minutes per unit if the daily production time is 480 minutes and the required daily output is 50 units?
a- 480
b- 0.104
c- Cannot be determined from the information above
d- 50
e- 9.6
Answer:
e - 9.6
Explanation:
Since the daily production time is 480 minutes, and the daily output is 50 units. The required cycle time in minutes per unit can be determined by;
[tex]\frac{minutes}{units}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{480}{50}[/tex]
= 9.6 min/unit
This implies that it takes 9.6 minutes to produce a unit daily. Then 480 minutes to produces 50 units daily.
J&R Renovation, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 20 years to maturity that is quoted at 107 % of face value. The issue makes semi-annual payments and has a coupon rate of 9 % annually.
A. What is the company's pretax cost of debt?
B. If the tax rate is 35 %, what is the aftertax cost of debt?
Answer:
a) 8.36%
b) 5.43%
Explanation:
to find the pretax cost of debt we must find the yield to maturity:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]
YTM = {45 + [(1,000 - 1,070) / 40]} / [(1,000 + 1,070) / 2] = 43.25 / 1,035 = 0.04178 x 2 = 0.08357 = 8.36%
after tax cost of debt = 8.36% x (1 - 35%) = 8.36% x 0.65 = 5.43%
A company uses the weighted-average method for inventory costing. At the end of the period, 19,000 units were in the ending Work in Process inventory and are 100% complete for materials and 68% complete for conversion. The equivalent costs per unit are materials, $2.58, and conversion $2.20. Compute the cost that would be assigned to the ending Work in Process inventory for the period.
Answer: $77,444
Explanation:
Given the following :
Ending work in process inventory = 19,000 units
Complete for materials = 100%
Complete for conversion = 68%
Equivalent cost per unit (material) = $2.58
Equivalent cost per unit (conversion) = $2.20
Cost of ending work in process inventory (materials) :
Cost per unit (material) * (ending work in process inventory) * complete for material
$2.58 * 19000 * 100% = $49,020
Cost of ending work in process inventory (conversion) :
Cost per unit (conversion) * (ending work in process inventory) * complete for conversion
$2.20 * 19000 * 68% = $49,020
$2.20 * 19000 * 0.68 = $28,424
Total cost (ending work in process inventory) :
Material cost + conversion cost
$49,020 + $28,424 = $77444
