The nation of Newbie is establishing its monetary system and is designing its currency. The first proposal is to issue the Newbi

e Nugget (their new currency) in only 3 denominations of paper bills (100, 500 and 1000 Newbie bills) but no coinage. In order to save time and resources they will print their currency on a heavy stock cardboard. The bills will be about the size of a business card so that the Newbian people will be able to easily carry it with them in their wallets. Why will the Newbie Nugget not function as a medium of exchange?

Answer:

The answer is yes, it will function as a medium of exchange.

Explanation:

Money has three functions, store of value, unit of account and medium of exchange. Money that can be used as a medium of exchange is money that is accepted as such by both buyers and sellers, and that is comfortable, or convenient enough, to be carried and exchanged

In this example, the nation of Newbie will issue a currency that can be easily transported. While heavy stock cardboard is a little bit heavier than the paper in which most modern-day currencies are printed, the weight is still light, and does not impede easy transportation and exchange of the currency bills.

Besides, the new Newbie Nugget will be what is know was the legal tender of the nation. The legal tender is the currency that a specific country accepts to collect taxes. This gives more legitimacy to Newbie Nugget and makes it a classical example of a medium of exchange.

Answer:

Dollar General

Consolidated means that the financial statements of the parents have been combined with the financial statements of its subsidiaries so that the combined entities are presenting a single set of financial statements, as if they were one entity, which they are in the group sense.

Explanation:

For example, the income statement of Dollar General will be combined or consolidated with the income statement of one or all of its subsidiaries so that the investor has a view of the consolidated net income of the group.  To achieve this, some transactions that were done with inter-group companies will be eliminated, especially when the transactions have not been completed with entities outside the group.  For example, inventories bought from one company by another in the group, which have not been sold to the outside of the group will be eliminated so that the group does not assume to have made profits from itself.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

It is not a legitimate excuse for engaging in unethical projects

Explanation:

Ensuring scientific integrity and avoiding professional misconduct is a collective role of Scientists and Engineers. Every professional, engineers inclusive, must ensure they stay committed and faithful to the oath of practice they have sworn to. Engineering is an important and learned profession. As members of this profession, engineers are expected to exhibit the highest standards of honesty and integrity.  Engineers must perform under a standard of professional behavior that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct.

Every engineer must be familiar with the code of ethics of the profession, abide by it, and report erring professionals for punitive measures to be taken rather than giving excuses for carrying out an unethical project.

The concept of responsible conduct emphasizes ethical decision making, professional responsibilities, and strict adherence to professional standards and values. Every engineer and professional must take into cognizance all the responsible conducts required by their professions

If Starbucks raises its price by 5 percent and McDonald’s experiences a 0.5 percent increase in demand for its coffee, what is t
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

<em>Cross-price elasticity of demand = 0.1</em>

Explanation:

We have the formula to calculate the cross-price elasticity of demand as below:

<em>Cross-price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity demanded for product X/ % change in price of product Y</em>

<em />

Starbucks raises its price by 5 percent, so that <em>percentage changes in price of Starbucks' products</em> are 5

McDonald's experiences a 0.5 percent increase in demand for its coffee, so that <em>percentage changes in quantity demanded for McDonald's coffee </em>is 0.5

=> <em>Cross-price elasticity of demand = % changes in quantity demanded for McDonald's coffee/ %changes in price of Starbucks' products</em>

<em>= 0.5/5=  0.1</em>

A soft drink costs 75 cents for a 12-oz can. A two-liter bottle costs $1.25. In which form is the soft drink more expensive? How
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The coldrink is more expensive in Can form.

Can is $0.044/oz more expensive than bottle

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of 12-oz can = 75 cents = $0.75

Cost of 2 Liter bottle = $1.25

Now,

Cost per oz for can = $0.75 ÷ 12

= $0.0625/oz

For bottle

Total oz contained = 2 × 1.057 × 32 oz     [As 1.0 L = 1.057 qt, 1 qt = 32 oz]

= 67.648 oz

Therefore,

Cost per oz for bottle = $1.25 ÷  67.648 oz

= $0.0185/oz

Hence,

The coldrink is more expensive in Can form.

Difference = $0.0625/oz - $0.0185/oz

= $0.044/oz

Hence,

Can is $0.044/oz more expensive than bottle

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

$11

Explanation:

"The required return for the computer chip industry is 15%, and the company has just gone ex-dividend (i.e., the next dividend will be paid a year from now, at t 1) (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)"

g = ROE*b

g = ROE * (1-Payout ratio)

g = 20% * (1-0.5)

g = 10%

P0 = D1/k-g

P0 = D0(1+g) / k-g

P0 = 0.5(1+0.10) / (0.15+0.10)

P0 = $11

S0, the market price of Chiptech stock is $11
