A proportional tax is a fixed tax.This means that the tax base is constant despite an increase and decrease in tax.On the other hand, a progressive tax is a variable tax, in that, when the tax rate increases, the taxable amount also increase.A regressive tax is inversely proportional such that when tax rate decreases, the taxable amount increases.In doing this, all these taxes meet the criteria of simplicity and equity.

If the United States imports more than it exports, then this means that Group of answer choices the demand for dollars is likely
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus.

Explanation:

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.

Trade can be defined as a process which typically involves the buying and selling of goods and services between a producer and the customers (consumers) at a specific period of time.

If the United States imports more than it exports, then this means that the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus.

Generally, when import exceeds export there would be a deficit in the financial account of the country.

Hence, a deficit on the current account is because the value of goods and services exported is lower than the value of goods and services being imported in a particular country.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Barry cannot contribute any amount to Roth IRA

Explanation:

For a single/ unmarried individual to be able to contribute to Roth IRA plan, his Adjustable Gross Income (AGI) should range between $117,000 and $132,000.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

one-year forward rate for year 2:

(1+4.75%)(1+f)=(1+4.95%)^2    

(1+4.75%)(1+f)=1.10145025

(1+F)=1.10145025/1.0475

(1+f)=1.0515

f= 5.15%

one-year forward rate for year 3 :

(1+4.95%)^2 (1+f)=(1+5.25%)^3    

(1+4.95%)^2 (1+f)=1.16591345312

(1+f)=1.16591345312 /1.10145025

(1+f)=1.0585

f=5.85%

one-year forward rate for year 4 :

(1+5.25%)^3 (1+f)=(1+5.65%)^4

(1+f)=1.0685

f= 6.85%

Suppose there are only three firms in a market. The largest firm has sales of $500 million, the second-largest has sales of $300
belka [17]

Answer:

50% share.

Explanation:

Given:

There are only three firms in a market.

The largest firm has sales of $500 million.

The second-largest has sales of $300 million.

The smallest has sales of $200 million.

Question asked:

The market share of the largest firm is ?

Solution:

As we know:

Market\ share=\frac{Total\ sales\ of\ the\ firm}{Total\ sales\ of\ the \ market} \times100

Total sales of the largest company = $500 million.

Total sales of the market = Sales of largest firm + Sales of second largest firm+ Sales of smallest firm

Total sales of the market = $500 million + $300 million + $200 million

                                          = $1000 million

Market\ share=\frac{Total\ sales\ of\ the\ firm}{Total\ sales\ of\ the \ market} \times100

                       =\frac{500}{1000} \times100\\ \\ =\frac{50000}{1000} \\ \\ =50\%

Therefore, the market share of the largest firm is 50%.
