Answer: $1,250,000

Explanation:

The implicit value of a person's life can be found by using the elasticity approach.

i.e. On comparing the change/reduction  in earnings with the change/reduction in probability of dying in a workplace accident.

Given :

Billy Bob earns $45000 with a 0.007 probability of accident

whereas,

Jim Bob earns $41000 with a 0.0038 probability of accident.

thus, value of life = (45000 - 41000)/ (0.007 - 0.0038) = $1,250,000

First National Bank (FNB) has a reserve ratio of 20 percent, a required reserve ratio of 10 percent, and deposits of $1,000. If
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is then it has required reserves of $110 and holds excess reserves of $190.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Total deposit = $1,000 + $100 = $1,100

So, we can calculate the total reserve required by using following formula:

Total reserve required = 10% × Total deposit

= 10% × $1,100 = $110

And Previous excess = $100

Current access = $90

So, Excess reserve =  Previous excess +  Current access

= $100 + $90

= $190

Explanation:

First we calcualte the physical units.

then the equivalent units.

we solve for equialent cost per unit by dividing the cost of the period by the equivalent unit

then, we make the cost reconciliation

notice how the cost accounted (beginning + incurred during the period)

matches the cost assigned (trasnferred + ending WIP inventory)

Consider the following balance sheet for TD. Assets Liabilities Reserves 493 Deposits 2900 Loans 2407 4. Suppose that TD is a ty
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

what is the money multiplier?

  • 5.88

what is the total change in the M1 Money Supply?

  • Just because a client deposits money into a bank it does not increase M1, it just changes its composition. The immediate effect of the deposit in the total money supply is nothing. If the bank loans the money to other clients ($581 in total loans are possible), and other clients deposit the funds in the same bank or other banks, then the money supply could increase up to $3,416.

what is the minimum amount by which the money supply will increase?

  • If the bank loans the disposable funds, the money supply should increase by $581 at least.

Explanation:

The bank's required reserve ratio = reserves / deposits = $493 / $2,900 = 0.17 or 17%.

the money multiplier = 1 / required reserve ratio = 1 / 0.17 = 5.88

if a client deposits $700, the minimum amount by which the money supply will increase = $700 x (1 - required reserve) = $700 x (1 - 0.17) = $700 x 0.83 = $581

the maximum amount by which the money supply could increase = ($700 x 5.88) - $700 = $4,116 - $700 = $3,416

Dayna’s Doorstops, Inc. (DD) is a monopolist in the doorstop industry. Its cost is C  100  5Q  Q2, and demand is P  55  2Q.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the following data about Dayna's Doorstep Inc(DD) :

Cost given by; C = 100 - 5Q + Q^2

Demand ; P = 55 - 2Q

A.) Set price to maximize output;

Marginal revenue (MR) = marginal cost (MC)

MR = taking first derivative of total revenue with respect to Q; (55 - 2Q^2)

MC = taking first derivative of total cost with respect to Q; (-5Q + Q^2)

MR = 55 - 4Q ; MC = 2Q - 5

55 - 4Q = 2Q - 5

60 = 6Q ; Q = 10

From

P = 55 - 2Q ;

P = 55 - 2(10) = $35

Output

35(10) - [100-5(10)+10^2]

350 - 150 = $200

Consumer surplus:

0.5Q(55-35)

0.5(10)(20) = $100

B.) Here,

Marginal cost = Price

2Q - 5 = 55 - 2Q

4Q = 60 ; Q = 15

P= 55 - 2(15) = $25

Totally revenue - total cost:

(25)(15) - [100-(5)(15)+15^2] = $125

Consumer surplus(CS) :

0.5Q(55-25) = 0.5(15)(30) = $225

C.) Dead Weight loss between Q=10 and Q=15, which is the area below the demand curve and above the marginal cost curve

=0.5×(35-15) ×(15-10)

=0.5×20×5 = $50

D.) If P=$27

27 = 55 - 2Q

2Q = 55 - 27

Q = 14

CS = 0.5×14×(55 - 27) = $196

DWL = 0.5(1)(4) = $2
