Explanation:
The article is, ''<em>Social Security checks to rise modestly amid push to expand benefits
'' </em>by<em> Associated Press. </em>
Blahous is a former program trustee who believes that the current inflation adjustment rate at which Social security is increasing is overcompensating seniors because it does not take into account that seniors could be switching to buying cheaper products which is the Substitution effect.

Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following formula:
Purchase price= $67,560
Salvage value= $6,900
Useful life= 6 years
<u>To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:</u>
<u></u>
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (67,560 - 6,900) / 6
Annual depreciation= $10,110
<u>2022:</u>
Annual depreciation= (10,110/12)*3= $2,527.5
<u>2023:</u>
Annual depreciation= $10,110
<span>Having a nominal interest rate less than 0 would mean that a depositor pays a bank to hold its money. If the annual nominal interest rate is negative 1 percent, a deposit of $1000 dollar would come out $10 dollar short the following year which is why someone with dollar bills will never agree to loan with a nominal interest rate that is negative percent.

<u>Solution and explanation:</u>
<u>Given data:
</u>
Ask price: 98.4062, bid price: 98.2812, par value of the bond: $10,000
<u>The following formula is used in order to calculate the actual value of the bond
</u>
The ask price will be used while calculating the actual value of the bond and the par value of the bond will be used
Ask price will be multiplied with par value of the bond and divided by 100
= $9840.62
Therefore, the par value as per the above calculation is $9840.62
