1. fixed and indirect
2. variable and direct
3. variable and direct
4. fixed and indirect
5. fixed and indirect
6. variable and direct
Explanation:
<u>Fixed and variable costs</u>
A fixed cost is expected to be constant for a short term period whilst a variable cost is expected to vary in direct proportion to the number of units produced in this case it is the individual classes.
Depreciation expense on classroom building and on computers is a fixed cost that is expected to remain constant and the instructor wage varies with the number of classes thus a variable cost.
<u>Direct and Indirect costs</u>
A direct cost can be directly traced to the cost object by observation whist the indirect cost can not be directly traced on a cost object.
The instructors wage is a direct cost, his effort is seen with the success of the classes whist the depreciation expenses are indirect costs.

</span>QUESTION 2.
According to Davidson, the republican and the democrat philosophies are two fundamentally different economic philosophies that impact the debt crisis faced by the United States.

I think I would agree more with the Democrat philosophy because equity and fairness to everyone is<span> a key public value outcome in every society.

</span>- The parties are so divided chiefly because they have extreme opposites points of view on several issues.
- On the issues, I lean towards the Democrat view.
QUESTION 4.
Towards the end of his talk, Davidson says he fears that the longer we delay any solution, the more the world will look to the U.S. not as the bedrock of stability in the global economy, but as a place that can't resolve its own fights. He explains that the higher interest rates are going to be, the quicker we're going to have to face a day of horrible calamity.
Answer:
Correct Answer is (B)
Explanation:
We look at the objectives the government has in mind to achieve;
- stability in international trade
- stability in investment
Which of the listed policies will achieve these goals?
- the tool here used to control international trade is foreign exchange trading
- the tool used to control investment is interest rate
To achieve stability in these 2 indicators, both tools should be controlled. Thus the monetary policy & exchange rate regime to choose here is:
Controlling the interest rate in the country and imposing restrictions on foreign exchange trading.
Option (C) won't suffice because an independent monetary policy is necessary.
Answer: $920,000
Explanation:
Given the following :
Beginning balance = $800,000
Brown's earning = $600,000
Casg Dividend = $200,000
Dexter's portion of brown's outstanding shares = 3000/ 10000 = 0.3
Therefore, Dexter's investment account is as follows :
Beginning balance + (earning × 0.3) - (Dividend × 0.3)
$800,000 + ($600,000 × 0.3) - ($200,000 × 0.3)
$800,000 + $180,000 - $60,000
$980000 - $60000 = 920000
