a (B) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year

this year's prices

Value of all goods and services produced in the economy in the base year

by the base year's prices

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The GDP price index for this year is calculated by dividing the (A) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy in the base year (B) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year (C) cost of a given market basket of goods and services using 2) ______ (A) the base year's prices (B) this year's prices by the 3) ________ A) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy in the base year (B) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year (C) cost of a given market basket of goods and services using 4) ______ (A) the base year's prices (B) this year's prices

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP price index = (nominal GDP / Real GDP ) X 100

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

For example, country A produces 10 kg of rice at $10 per kg in 2019 and 50kg of beans at $30 per kg in 2018. In 2019, it produces 10 kg of rice at $20 per kg in 2019 and 50kg of beans at $40 per kg in 2019. 2018 is the base year.

Nominal GDP in 2018 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

Nominal GDP in 2019 = (10 x $20) + (50 x $40) = $2200

Real GDP in 2018 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

Real GDP in 2019 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

GDP price index in 2019 =  nominal gdp in 2019 / real gdp in 2019 ) x 100

(2200 / 1600 ) x 100 = 137.5

First of all, this question is not complete and lacks the group of answer choices. However, I have found that question with complete options on the internet.

So,

The Correct option is: D

Option D =  Not enough information

Reasoning:

For overestimated or underestimated or not full information required i.e. cost under traditional method and cost under activity based cost method , both information required for compare methods cost under each method.

Under Activity base costing all indirect cost is applied as per activities use by each product but under traditional method only one key factor use for applied overheads i.e. direct labor hours or machine hours etc.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be reported for patent amortization for the year 2021 is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

The value of the patent as of 31st Dec, 2020

Purchase Value as of Sep 1,2019 $405000

Less:- Amortization Expense for the year 2019 $13,500

($405000 ÷ 10 × 4 ÷ 12)

Less:- amortization expense for the year 2020 $40500 ($405,000 ÷ 10)

Value of patent as on 1st Jan, 2021 $351,000

Add:- fees to defend $99000

New Book Value for the year 2021 $450,000

Now Remaining Useful Life 5 years

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "58,044".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Service cost,

= $43,200

Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation,

= 321,800

Actual and expected return,

The Postretirement benefit expense will be:

= [tex]Service \ cost +Interest \ cost-Actual \ and \ expected \ return[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

$7,000 Favourable

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The Step Company's sales-price variance is:

Using this formula

Sales Price Variance = (Actual Sales Price – Budgeted Sales Price) * Actual Sales Volume

Let plug in the formula

Sales Price Variance=[($ 147,000÷14,000)-(150,000/15,000)]*14000

Sales Price Variance = ($10.5 – $10) * 14000

Sales Price Variance = $7,000 Favorable

Therefore The Step Company's sales-price variance is: $7,000 Favorable

Answers

Answer:

Standard deviation=11.82%

Explanation:

Standard deviation is measure of the total risks of an investment. It measures the volatility in return of an investment as a result of both systematic and non-systematic risks. Non-systematic risk includes risk that are unique to a company like poor management, legal suit against the company .

Standard deviation is the sum of the squared deviation of the individual return from the mean return under different scenarios

Expected return (r) = (30% × 0.25 ) + (15% × 0.65) + (-14%× 0.10)=15.8%

Outcome (R- r )^2 × P

Boom      (30%-15.8)^2× 0.25 = 50.05

Normal    (15%-15.8)^2×0.65 =   0.47

Bust       ( 13.6%- 15.8)^2 ×0.1=    89.10

                                                    139.63

Standard deviation =√139.63= 11.82%

Standard deviation=11.82%

Aloma, a university graduate who started a successful business, wants to start an endowment in her name that will provide scholarships to CE students. She wants the scholarship to provide $11,000 per year and expects the first one to be awarded on the day she fulfills the endowment obligation. If Aloma plans to donate $250,000, what rate of return must the university realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever

Answers

Answer:

the rate of return is 4.60%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of return is shown below;

= Scholarship provided per year ÷ (Expected donated amount - Scholarship provided per year)

= $11,000 ÷ ($250000 - $11,000)

= $11,000 ÷ $239,000

= 4.60%

Hence, the rate of return is 4.60%

(a) What are capital structure weights on a book value basis

Answers

Answer:

Equity = 20.34%Debt = 79.66%

Explanation:

Book value of stock:

= 8,300,000 * 4

= $33,200,000

Total book value = BV of stock + BV of bonds

= 33,200,000 + 70,000,000 + 60,000,000

= $‭163,200,000‬.

Weight of Equity:

= 33,200,000 / ‭163,200,000‬

= 20.34%

Weight of debt:

= (70,000,000 + 60,000,000) / ‭163,200,000‬

= 79.66%

= $285,000

Loss on debt securities:

= $45000 × (1 - 25%)

= $45000 × 75%

= $45000 × 0.75

= $33750

Answers

Answer:

$1,193,562

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the transaction price for this contract.

First step is to calculate the probabilities

Probabilities

August 1, 2021 =70 % *$153,300

August 1, 2021 =$107,310

August 8, 2021= 20%*$51,100

August 8, 2021= $10,220

August 15, 2021 =6%*$102,200

($153,300-$51,100)

August 15, 2021 =$6,132

After August 15, 2021= 4%*$0

After August 15, 2021= $0

Now let calculate the transaction price for this contract.

Total transaction price =$1,069,900+ $107,310+$10,220+$6,132+$0

Total transaction price =$1,193,562

Therefore the transaction price for this contract will be $1,193,562

The government of Uwannastan protects its newly privatized firms from foreign competition by imposing stringent barriers to international trade and foreign direct investment. As a result of this, the newly privatized firms will: have no control over production and pricing. import raw materials and many industrial goods at low tariffs. continue operating like State-owned enterprises continue operating like private companies under capitalism

Answers

Answer: Continue operating like State-owned enterprises

Explanation:

Newly privatized would imply that they were once government owned which means that they were probably monopolies. These new companies are protected from foreign competition which means that their goods will be the dominant ones in the economy.

They will therefore keep operating as though they are state-owned companies because their goods will be dominant making them monopolies which is what government owned companies usually are.
