Answer:

$80.364.45

Explanation:

The lump sum that would make the employee indifferent can be determined by calculating the present value of the annuity

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $10,000  

Cash flow in year 1 = $40,000  

Cash flow in year 2 = $40,000

I = 9%

PV = $80,364.45

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Answer:

GDP= 9,872

Explanation:

The Expenditure Approach is a method of measuring GDP by calculating all spending throughout the economy including consumer consumption, investing, government spending, and net exports. This method calculates what a country produces, assuming that the finished goods and services of a country equals the amount spent in the country for that period.

The formula is:

GDP=C+I+G+/-NX

GDP: Gross Domestic Product

(C) consumer spending – this is the amount that all consumers spend on goods and services for personal use.

(I) investment – this is the amount that businesses or owners spend to invest in new equipment or expansions.

(G) government spending – this includes spending on new infrastructure like bridges and roads.

(NX) net exports – this includes spending on a country’s exports minus its spending on imports.

GDP= 6,728+1,767 +1,741+(1,102-1,466)

GDP= 9,872

Consumer surplus is the difference between the total amount a consumer is willing to pay for an item and what they actually pay. The total amount that Natasha, Nelson and Nikolai are willing to pay for the flashlight is $34, the amount they do pay is $20. So, the total consumer surplus for them is $14.

babunello [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) using 2-year moving average :

Year 6 : (3800 + 3700) = 7500 / 2 = 3750

2) Mean absolute deviation based on the forecast above :

(3000 + 4000) = 7000/2 = 3500

(4000 + 3400) = 7400/2 = 3700

(3400 + 3800) = 7200/2 = 3600

3000

4000

3400 __3500__100

3800__3700__100

3700__3600__100

Mean absolute deviation = (100 + 100 + 100) /3 = 300/3 = 100

C) weight of 0.4 and 0.6

(0.4*3000 + 0.6*4000) = 3600

(0.4*4000 + 0.6*3400) = 3640

(0.4*3400 + 0.6*3800) = 3640

3000

4000

3400 __3600__200

3800__3640__160

3700__3640__60

(200 + 160 + 60) = 420 / 3 = 140

Jacqui decides to open her own business and earns $50,000 in accounting profit the first year. When deciding to open her own bus
ohaa [14]

Answer: $4,000

Explanation: Economic profit can be defined as the difference between the total revenues generated from operations and cost incurred plus any opportunity cost taken.

Opportunity cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone, that is loss of profits that occurred due to choosing one alternative over other. In the given case loss of interest and loss of highest salary are opportunity cost for Jacqui .

Hence,

economic profit = revenues - (interest + salary)

                        =  $50,000 - ($1000 + $45,000)

                        = $4,000
