If a consumer places a value of $20 on a particular good and if the price of the good is $25, then the:___________. a. consumer has consumer surplus of $5 if he buys the good. b. consumer does not purchase the good. c. price of the good will rise due to market forces. d. market is out of equilibrium.
Answer: b. consumer does not purchase the good.
Explanation:
The price a Consumer buys a good is dependent on the amount they value the good. A good that is selling at a price higher than the value ascribed to it by the consumer will not be purchased because it is higher than the amount that the consumer wants to spend.

Explanation:
You bought a stock six months ago for $74.82 per share. The stock paid no dividends. The current share price is $77.59. What is the APR and EAR of your investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
Percentage returns is
= (End value - Beginning value) ÷ Beginning value
= ($77.59 - $74.82) ÷ $74.82
= 3.70%
Now
APR is
= 3.70 × 2
= 7.40%
As the given months is six but we have to compute for 12 months that why we multiplied it by 2
And,
EAR = (1 + APR ÷ m)^m - 1
where
m = compounding periods
So,
= (1 + 0.074 ÷ 2)^2 - 1
=7.54%

A tax may be used as a corrective device in the case of a negative externality because it will __________ marginal private costs and __________ supply.
Answer:
b. increase; increase
Explanation:
As if there is taxes so it increased the marginal private cost and reduce the supply. If the tax is imposed so it rise the production cost i.e. the raw material prices are more that ultimately increased the final cost
So here the marginal private cost would be increased
In the case when there is a rise in the cost so the producer would have lower money so that he or she is able to decreased the suppply on the other hand the demand of the consumer would be decreased due to rise in prices.
So, the supply would also be increased
Hence, the correct option is b.

Discount on the bond is contra liability account and it has debit balance because liabilities normally have a credit balance, so the contra account of liabilities must have a debit balance.
Discount on Asset is reported under the bond payable value. The net payable on the bond is calculated by deducting the discount on bond value from the bond payable value ( usually face value of the bond. )
A bank loans money at an annual rate of 20 percent. Interest is compounded daily. What is the actual rate the bank is charging?
Answer:
22.13%
Explanation:
The effective annual rate formula below can be used to determine the actual rate charged by the bank as follows:
Effective annual rate=(1+APR/n)^n-1
APR=20%
n=number of times interest is computed yearly=365
Effective annual rate=(1+20%/365)^365-1
Effective annual rate=1.221335858 -1
Effective annual rate=22.13%
The actual rate of interest on bank loan is 22.13%

A corporate bond that pays interest rates annualy yields a rate of return of 9.50%. the inflation rate for the same period is 3%. What is the real rate of return on this bond?a. 1.06%.
b. 12.50%.
c. 3.00%.
d. 6.31%.
e. 3.17%.
Answer:
d. 6.31%
Explanation:
The relationship between the nominal interest rate(9.50%),inflation rate( 3%) and the real rate of return is shown by the formula below:
(1+nominal rate of return)=(1+inflation rate)*(1+real rate of return)
nominal rate of return=9.50%
inflation rate=3%
real rate of return is the unknown
(1+9.50%)=(1+3%)*(1+real rate of return)
1.095=1.03*(1+real rate of return)
1.095/1.03=1+real rate of return
real rate of return=(1.095/1.03)-1
real rate of return=6.31%
Suppose you take a fixed-rate mortgage of $150,000 at 3.21% per annum for 30 years. How much of the payment is interest in 72 month?a. $349.40 b. $640.53 c. $875.56 d. $65,432 e. none of the above
Answer:
$349.40
Explanation:
The interest in 72 month is only obtained when an amortization table for this mortgage is constructed.
So we first need to find the annual instalment as follows :
PV = $150,000
i = 3.21%
N = 30
P/YR = 1
FV = $ 0
PMT = ?
Using a financial calculator to input the values as above, the annual instalment is $7,862.08.
In 72 months, this will be 6 years. So in the 6th year, the interest will be $4,293.52. Monthly interest will approximate $349.40 ($4,293.52 ÷ 12).
Palms, Inc. wants to sell enough palm trees to earn a profit of $20,000. If the unit sales price is $40, unit variable cost is $22, and total fixed costs are $120,400, how many trees must be sold to earn a profit of $20,000?a. 6,689.
b. 312,000.
c. 7,800.
d. 8,911.
Answer:
c. 7,800
Explanation:
Contribution margin per tree = Unit selling price - Unit variable cost = $40 - $22 = $18
Sales(trees) required = (Fixed costs+Operating income) / Contribution margin per tree = ($120,000+$20,000) / $18 = $140,000 / $18 = 7,800 trees
Answer: Number of tress to be sold = 7,800-C
Explanation:
Contribution margin = Selling expense - Variable cost
= $40- $22
= $18
Contribution Margin Ratio= Contribution Margin/ sales expense x 100
=18/ 40 x 100
= 45%
To earn a target profit of $20,000
A) Sales to attain the target profit = [(Fixed expenses + Target profit) ÷ Contribution Margin ratio]
= ($120,400+ $20,000) / 0.45
$140,400/0.45
= $312,000
No. of tress to be sold =Sales to attain the target profit/ selling price
$312,000/$40
=$7,800
A loan of $100,000 is taken out which requires an annual interest payment of 6% of the borrowed amount of money (in market dollars). No principal payments are made, only interest is paid. Inflation is 3.1% per year. what will be the value of interest payment at the end of fifth year in real dollars?A. $5,930 B. $6,000 C. $5,150. D. $6.989
Answer:
C. $5,150
Explanation:
Calculation for what will be the value of interest payment at the end of fifth year in real dollars
First step is to calculate the Interest amount per year
Interest amount per year = 100,000*6%
Interest amount per year = $6,000
Now let calculate the value of interest payment at the end of fifth year in real dollars
Value of interest payment in 5th year in real dollars = 6,000/(1+3.1%)^5
Value of interest payment in 5th year in real dollars= 6,000/1.164913
Value of interest payment in 5th year in real dollars= $5,150
Therefore the Value of interest payment in 5th year in real dollars will be $5,150

If the variable cost per unit increases by $1, spending on advertising increases by $1,700, and unit sales increase by 240 units, what would be the net operating income?3. What is the break-even point in unit sales?4. What is the break-even point in dollar sales?5. How many units must be sold to achieve a target profit of $16,800?
Answer:
1. If the selling price increases by $2 per unit and the sales volume decreases by 100 units, what would be the net operating income?
net operating income = $73,800 - $46,800 - $21,840 = $5,160
2. If the variable cost per unit increases by $1, spending on advertising increases by $1,700, and unit sales increase by 240 units, what would be the net operating income?
net operating income = $99,200 - $65,720 - $23,540 = $9,940
3. What is the break-even point in unit sales?
780 units
4. What is the break-even point in dollar sales?
$62,400
5. How many units must be sold to achieve a target profit of $16,800?
1,380 units
Explanation:
contribution margin per unit = $28,000 / 1,000 = $28
fixed expenses = $21,840
break even point = $21,840 / $28 = 780 units
($21,840 + $16,800) / $28 = 1,380 units

Why would an advocate of the efficient market hypothesis believe that even if many investors exhibit the behavioral biases, security prices might still be set efficiently?
Answer:
Advocates of the efficient market hypothesis believe that stocks are always priced correctly by the market and they are never overvalued or undervalued. They will argue this is true even if investors exhibit behavioral basis. Behavioral bias is basically when an investor's decision is based on some irrational thought, e.g. they have a hunch that some stock will perform better, or they like a product so much that they believe it will be a hit in the future. According to the efficient market hypothesis, this investors that act irrationally, are arbitrageurs that want to make a profit from underpriced or overpriced stocks.
Even as these arbitrageurs operate, the efficient market hypothesis will still be valid, because their actions will make the market correct itself. I.e. the irrational actions of some investors will result in the market pricing the stocks correctly.
I personally do not believe in this theory, since stock prices are not always rational. E.g. today is November 21, and Tesla's is worth more than Toyota, GM, Volkswagen and BMW together. Why? Because they build electric cars. But Toyota, GM, Volkswagen and BMW also build electric cars and they outsell Tesla by millions of cars per year. I believe that in the future, Tesla's stock price will take a deep dive because you cannot live on unfulfilled promises all your life. At some point, reality bites. But according to the efficient market hypothesis this type of situation where stocks are clearly overpriced doesn't exist.
Exeter has a materials standard of 1 pound per unit of output. Each pound has a standard price of $27 per pound. During July, Exeter paid $141,000 for 4,970 pounds, which it used to produce 4,760 units. What is the direct materials quantity variance?a) $10,320 favorable
b) $27,780 unfavorable
c) $11,220 unfavorable
d) $17,460 unfavorable
Answer:
the direct material quantity variance is $5,670 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the direct material quantity variance is shown below:
= (Standard quantity - actual quantity) × standard price
= (4,760 units × 1 pound per unit - 4,970 pounds) × $27 per pound
= (4,760 pounds - 4,970 pounds) × $27 per pound
= $5,670 unfavorable
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
Hence, the direct material quantity variance is $5,670 unfavorable
It is unfavorable because the actual pounds is more than the standard one

The demand for automobiles falls when the economy experiences a recession. If an automobile manufacturer lays off workers during a recession, this would be an example of:________. a. cyclical unemployment. b. natural unemployment. c. structural unemployment. d. frictional unemployment.
Answer:
a. cyclical unemployment.
Explanation:
Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;
I. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).
II. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).
III. Structural unemployment rate (SU).
IV. Actual unemployment rate (AU).
V. Natural Rate of Unemployment (NU).
In this scenario, the demand for automobiles falls when the economy experiences a recession. Thus, if an automobile manufacturer lays off workers during a recession, this would be an example of a cyclical unemployment.
A cyclical unemployment can be defined as a type of unemployment which is typically related to changes in the business, economy or industry cycle such as recession, governmental policies etc.
Mathematically, cyclical unemployment rate can be calculated using the formula;
[tex]Cyclical \; unemployment \; rate (CU) = Actual \; unemployment \; rate (AU) – Natural \; unemployment \; rate (NU)[/tex]
