The multiplier effect occurs when an initial increase (or decrease) in autonomous expenditure produces a greater increase (or decrease) in real GDP than the initial change. In which type of discretionary fiscal policy does the multiplier play a role? tax changes only neither government spending changes nor tax changes government spending changes only both government spending changes and tax changes Assume a marginal propensity to consume (MPC) of 0.5. Which discretionary fiscal policy would have a more pronounced impact on the economy? A 800 billion dollar increase in government spending, or a 800 billion dollar tax cut, would both have an equal impact on the economy. A 800 billion dollar increase in government spending would have a more pronounced impact on the economy. A 800 billion dollar tax cut would have a more pronounced impact on the economy.
Answer:
The answer is "Choice d and Choice b".
Explanation:
In question 1:
The multiplier effect is produced whenever an initial rise (or decrease) of self-employed market capitalization (or decreases) GDP Growth higher than the original change. Where both increases in public spending or adjustments in taxes are produced by a budgetary monetary strategy, a multiplier mostly on the economy plays a major role in public spending and new taxes.
In question 2:
This marginal demand risk of 0.5 would have a more noticeable influence on financial spending, via an 800 billion dollar increase in government expenditure. This will have more major economic effects on fiscal policy. More noticeable effects of increased spending will have on the aggregate throughout the economy.
The use of government budget funding policies to impact economic factors, particularly macroeconomic variables such as aggregate consumer spending, employment, inflation, and economic growth, is referred to as fiscal policy.
How is a fiscal policy that is discretionarily chosen?The multiplier impact occurs anytime an initial increase (or drop) in self-employed market capitalization (or reduces) GDP Growth that is greater than the original change.
When a fiscal monetary strategy produces both increases in public expenditure and tax adjustments, a multiplier based primarily on the economy plays a significant role in both public spending and new taxes.
This marginal demand risk of 0.5 would have a greater impact on financial expenditures, resulting in an 800 billion dollar rise in government spending.
This will have a greater impact on budgetary policy. The aggregate consequences of higher expenditure will be more visible throughout the economy.
Thus, Options B and D are correct.

Organizations with low turnover and satisfied employees tend to perform better. On the other side of the coin, organizations have to act when an employee's performance consistently falls short. Based on these concepts, organizations may distinguish between involuntary and voluntary turnover, recognize their effects on the organization, develop measures to encourage top performers to stay, and develop ways to manage the separation process fairly. Any organization wants to retain good performers and encourage or force low-performing employees to leave. There are two types of employee turnover. Involuntary turnover occurs when the employer requires employees to leave, often when they would prefer to stay. This action may potentially result in lawsuits and violence. Voluntary turnover occurs when employees initiate the turnover, often when the organization would prefer to keep them. These employees may retire or leave to work with different organizations. Both types of turnovers are costly because of subsequent needs to recruit, hire, and train replacements.
Roll over each of the following items, read the statements, and place them in the appropriate columnin the chart. Each category has three statements.

7. Promise
8. Careers
9. Employee layoff
A. Voluntary Turnover
B. Involuntary Turnover
C. Employee at Will Doctrine
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Voluntary Turnover:
Better Job: If an employee is offered a better job, he may choose to quit his current position.
Careers: If an employee is career-oriented and wishes to pursue higher education, he will willingly leave his employment.
Retirement: When an employee reaches the legal working age, he retires, which is referred to as voluntary retirement.
Involuntary Turnover:
Workplace Violence: An employer may decide to fire an employee who engages in workplace violence. This is what is known as spontaneous turnover.
Violating: If an employee is found to be in breach of the company's rules, he will be dismissed, resulting in involuntary turnover.
Employee layoffs: Forced turnover occurs when a company's employees are laid off in large numbers.
Employment at-will doctrine:
For some reason: This allows the employer to fire an employee for any cause.
Promise: Neither the employer nor the employee has made any commitments to each other.
Refusing to state the reason for the employee's termination: If the employer refuses to state the reason for the employee's termination,
Sunland purchased the license for distribution of a popular consumer product on January 1, 2020, for $158,000. It is expected that this product will generate cash flows for an indefinite period of time. The license has an initial term of 5 years but by paying a nominal fee, Sunland can renew the license indefinitely for successive 5-year terms. What amount should be amortized for the year ended December 31, 2020
Answer:
No amount should be amortized since the license can be renewed indefinitely for successive 5-year terms.
Instead, the license should be tested for impairment annually to determine impairment loss.
Explanation:
An intangible asset that can be used indefinitely is treated like purchased Goodwill. It should never be amortized. Annually, the asset should be tested for impairment. The test is to compare the market value of the license with the book value.

Suppose you are the money manager of a $5.21 million investment fund. The fund consists of four stocks with the following investments and betas: Stock Investment Beta A $ 320,000 1.50 B 780,000 (0.50) C 1,260,000 1.25 D 2,850,000 0.75 If the market's required rate of return is 10% and the risk-free rate is 5%, what is the fund's required rate of return
Answer: 8.65%
Explanation:
First find the weights of the stocks:
Total = 320,000 + 780,000 + 1,260,000 + 2,850,000
= $5,210,000
Stock A:
= 320,000 / 5,210,000
= 6.14%
Stock B:
= 780,000 / 5,210,000
= 14.97%
Stock C:
= 1,260,000 / 5,210,000
= 24.18%
Stock D:
= 2,850,000 / 5,210,000
= 54.70%
Then calculate Portfolio Beta.
Portfolio beta = (6.14% * 1.50) + (14.97% * - 0.5) + (24.18% * 1.25) + (54.72% * 0.75)
= 0.7299
Required rate of return using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)
= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - risk free rate)
= 5% + 0.7299 * (10% - 5%)
= 8.65%

Date Description Units Unit Cost Total Cost June 1 Beginning 12 $ 8 $ 96 11 Purchase 38 9 342 24 Purchase 20 11 220 30 Ending 24 Required: Calculate the cost of ending inventory and the cost of goods sold under the (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) weighted average cost methods.
Answer:
a. FIFO
cost of ending inventory = $256
cost of goods sold = $402
b. LIFO
cost of ending inventory = $204
cost of goods sold = $454
c. Weighted average cost
cost of ending inventory = $225.60
cost of goods sold = $432.40
Explanation:
Periodic method means cost of sales and inventory balance are determined at the end of the period.
Step 1 : Units Sold
Units Sold = Units available for Sale - Units in Inventory
= (12 + 38 + 20) - 24
= 46
Step 2 : FIFO
FIFO assumes that the units to arrive first, will be sold first.
cost of ending inventory = 20 x $11 + 4 x $9 = $256
cost of goods sold = 12 x $8 x 34 x $9 = $402
Step 3 : LIFO
LIFO assumes that the units to arrive last, will be sold first.
cost of ending inventory = 12 x $9 + 12 x $8 = $204
cost of goods sold = 20 x $11 x 26 x $9 = $454
Step 4 : Weighted average cost
Weighted average cost method calculates a new unit cost with every purchase made. this unit cost is then used to calculated cost of sale and ending inventory.
Unit Cost = Total Costs ÷ Units available for sale
= (12 x $8 + 38 x $9 + 20 x $11 ) ÷ (12 + 38 + 20)
= $9.40
cost of ending inventory = Units in Inventory x Unit Cost
= 24 x $9.40
= $225.60
cost of goods sold = Units Sold x Unit Cost
= 46 x $9.40
= $432.40

Effect on Net Income $6,838
Note : We have considered the avoidable component of fixed costs in this calculation. Ignore common fixed costs (unavoidable) since they are irrelevant for decision making.
Conclusion :
The effect on net income is an increase by $6838.
Decide whether each of the following is frictional, structural, or cyclical unemployment:
a. The economy gets worse, so General Motors shuts down a factory for four months, laying off workers. cyclical structural frictional
b. General Motors lays off 5,000 workers and replaces them with robots. The workers start looking for jobs outside the auto industry. cyclical structural frictional
c. About 10 workers per month at a General Motors plant quit their jobs because they want to live in another town. They start searching for work in the new town.
Answer and Explanation:
The classification is as follows:
a. Cyclical unemployment
Since the economy got worse and the factory would be shut down for 4 months so this represent that the economy would go into recession
b. Structural unemployment
As General motors would lays off 5,000 workes and wants to subsitute with robots so here there is a mismatch of the skills & characteristics according to the job requirements
c. Frictional unemployment
Frictional unemployment is classify as a short-term unemployment that occurred for matching the workers with the available jobs
Lindsey Company uses activity-based costing. The company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 5,000 units and of Product B is 2,000 units. There are three activity cost pools, with estimated total cost and expected activity as follows: Estimated Expected Activity Activity Cost Pools Overhead Cost Product A Product B Total Activity 1 $ 24,000 200 800 1,000 Activity 2 $ 36,900 750 150 900 Activity 3 $ 63,000 1,000 800 1,800 The overhead cost per unit of Product A under activity-based costing is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24,000 / 1,000= $24 per activity unit
Activity 2= 36,900 / 900= $41 per activity unit
Activity 3= 63,000 / 1,800= $35 per activity unit
Now, we can allocate costs to product A:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24*200= $4,800
Activity 2= 41*750= $30,750
Activity 3= 35*1,000= $35,000
Total allocated costs= $70,550
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 70,550 / 5,000= $14.11
Lake Corp., a newly organized company, reported pre-tax financial income of $100,000 for Year 1. Among the items reported in Lake's Year 1 income statement are the following: Premium on officer's life insurance with Lake as owner and beneficiary $15,000 Interest received on municipal bonds 20,000 The enacted tax rate for Year 1 is 30% and 25% thereafter. In its December 31, Year 1 balance sheet, Lake should report a deferred income tax liability of
Answer: $0
Explanation:
A deferred income tax is simply referred to as the liability that's being recorded in the balance sheet when there's a difference in the income that's recognized by the company and the tax laws.
First, we should note that the premium on officer's life insurance will make no difference to the taxable income. Also, the interest received on municipal bonds which is $20,000 are usually exempted from the federal income tax and should not be taxable as well.
Therefore, based on the above explanation, Lake should report a deferred income tax liability of $0.
a company acquired a truck for 130,000 residual value was estimated to be $20,000 the truck can be driven for 50,000 miles or a useful life of four years. Actual usage of the truck was recorded as 10,000 miles for the first year. What is the amount of depreciation expesne for the first year calculated by the double
Answer:
$65,000
Explanation:
Depreciation Expense = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP
where,
SLDP = 100 ÷ 4 = 25 %
BVSLDP = $130,000 (FIRST YEAR)
therefore,
Depreciation Expense = 2 x 25 % x $130,000 = $65,000

Elizabeth reports the following items for the current year: Nonbusiness capital gains $ 5,000 Nonbusiness capital losses (3,000) Interest income 3,000 Itemized deductions (including a $20,000 casualty loss in a Federal disaster area) (27,000) In calculating Elizabeth's net operating loss and with respect to these amounts only, what amount must be added back to taxable income (loss)
Answer: $2000
Explanation:
In calculating Elizabeth's net operating loss and with respect to these amounts only, the amount that must be added back to taxable income (loss) will be the difference between the nonbusiness capital gains and the nonbusiness capital losses. This will be:
= $5000 - $3000
= $2000
Reid Company is budgeting production of 100,000 units of product R for the month of September this year. Production of one unit of product R requires three units of material B. For material B, the actual inventory units at September 1 were 22,000 units and budgeted inventory units at September 30 are 24,000. How many units of material B is Reid planning to purchase during September?
Answer:
Purchases= 302,000 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 100,000 units
Production of one unit of product R requires three units of material B.
For material B:
Beginning inventory= 22,000
Desired inventory= 24,000
To calculate the purchases, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 100,000*3 + 24,000 - 22,000
Purchases= 302,000 units

Use Annual Cost Analysis to determine whether Alternative A or B should be chosen. The analysis period is 5 years. Assume an interest rate of 6% per year, compounded annually Alternative A Alternative B Initial Cost 2800 6580 Annual Benefit 450 940 Salvage Value 500 1375 Useful Life (yrs) 5 5 Group of answer choices Alternative A should be chosen, because its initial cost is lower than Alternative B's Alternative A should be chosen, because its equivalent annual cost is $252.15 lower than Alternative B's Alternative B should be chosen, because its annual benefit is higher than Alternative A's Alternative B should be chosen, because its equivalent annual cost is $252.15 higher than Alternative A's
Answer:
A should be chosen, because its equivalent annual cost is $252.15 lower than Alternative B's.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Interest rate = 6% per year
Alternative A Alternative B
Initial Cost 2800 6580
Annual Benefit 450 940
Salvage Value 500 1375
Useful Life (yrs) 5 5
Annuity factor = 4.212 for 5 years at 6%.
Present value factor = 0.747 for 5 years at 6%.
Alternative A Alternative B
Present value of
annual benefits $1,895.40 $3,959.28
PV of salvage value 373.50 1,027.12
Total present value
of benefits $2,268.90 $4,986.40
Initial Cost 2,800 6,580
Net present value $531.10 $1,593.60
The equivalent annual cost
= NPV/PV annuity factor
($531.10/4.212) ($1,593.60/4.212)
Equivalent annual cost $126.09 $378.35
Difference:
Alternative B = $378.35
Alternative A = $126.09
Difference = $252.26
(1 point) The manager of a large apartment complex knows from experience that 110 units will be occupied if the rent is 300 dollars per month. A market survey suggests that, on the average, one additional unit will remain vacant for each 2 dollar increase in rent. Similarly, one additional unit will be occupied for each 2 dollar decrease in rent. What rent should the manager charge to maximize revenue
Answer:
$270
Explanation:
If the rent is $300 then 110 units will be occupied. The manager of the apartment complex should set a price which will maximize the revenue. When the rent is increased by $2 then one additional unit will be left vacant. This will reduce the revenue of the apartment manager. The equation to find the best possible rent which maximizes the total revenue is:
Profit = 110 (p - 300)
P = 110p - 330
P = 270.
The rent for the apartment should be 270 so the total revenue will be maximized.
