Answer:
A.Marginal Revenue $3
B. No
Explanation:
A.Calculation for the Marginal Revenue (MR) that the firm earn from sale of the output produced by the last worker employed
Based on the information given we were told that the Marginal Physical product of the last unit of labor was 5 units per hour in which the firm pays each worker an hourly wage of $15. Now let calculate the Marginal Revenue using this formula
Marginal Revenue = Employees hourly wages/Marginal Physical product unit of labor
Where,
Employees hourly wages=$15
Marginal Physical product unit of labor =5 units per hour
Let plug in the formula
Marginal Revenue =$15/5
Marginal Revenue =$3
B. No reason been that the current profit-maximizing hourly output was 100 units in which we were told that the firm sells at a price of $5 per unit. While the Marginal Revenue gotten in (A) above was $3 which is lesser or lower than $5 per unit which simply means that the firm does NOT sell its output in a well perfectly competitive market .

The HIJ bond has a current price of $800, a maturity value of $1,000, and matures in 5 years. If interest is paid semi-annually and the bond is priced to yield 8%, what is the bond's annual coupon rate
Answer:
Explanation:
The coupon rate is defined as the interest rate paid on a bond by its issuer for the term of the security.
Hence,
Par Value = $800
Face Value = $1,000
N = 5 x 2 = 10
Since the interest is semi annual
i = 8% / 2 = 4%
CF = $15.34
Coupon = $30.68 per year or 3.068%

The federal gas tax has been stuck at 18.4cents¢ a gallon since 1993. Today, Americans are driving fewer miles, and vehicles have become more fuel-efficient. Less gas consumption means less gas-tax revenue to repair the nation's roads. Source: Bloomberg News, July 17, 2014 Would a tax per mile driven by more efficient or less efficient than a tax per gallon of gasoline? Which tax would be more regressive? Explain your answers.
Answer:
1. A Tax per mile driven would be more efficient than a tax per gallon of gasoline.
2. A tax per gallon of gasoline is more regressive. The tax is based on a fixed dollar per gallon since 1993. instead of being based on a percentage per the price of gasoline per gallon. With the current rate, the price of gasoline per gallon may even be less than the tax. One can then ask, "what is the purpose of the tax?" Is the tax a road tax or a per gallon use tax?
Explanation:
When the federal gas tax remains at 18.4 cents per gallon for a very long period, the tax can be described as regressive as it does not take into consideration the trend that Americans are driving fewer miles, and vehicles have become more fuel-efficient. This means that the gas tax is not fit for purpose. If its purpose is to generate revenue for road repairs, then instead of a gallon tax, government should institute a road use tax.
Eliminating the queue of work dramatically quickens the time it takes apart to flow through the system. What are the disadvantages of removing those queues?
Answer:
quality may sufferexcess output mayExplanation:
Note that quality does not necessarily come quickly, and so even though eliminating the queue of work dramatically quickens the time it takes apart to flow through the system, it may result in excess output and poor quality.
Take for a stadium that has no entrance way (or doors) that is hosting an event, evidently it is less likely there will be a queue, as everyone would be rushing in quickly, but with possible consequences of overpopulation etc.
Suppose you know a company's stock currently sells for $70 per share and the required return on the stock is 14 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share?
Answer: $4.58
Explanation:
The required return is said to be evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield.
That means that Dividend Yield = 7%
Capital gains yield = 7%
The Dividend Yield is based on the next dividend and given the expected return the dividend is;
Expected Return = Dividend Yield + Capital gains yield
Expected Return = Dividend(1 + g)/stock price + Capital gains yield
0.14 = Dividend ( 1 + 0.07)/70 + 0.07
70 * (0.14 - 0.07 ) = Dividend ( 1.07)
4.9 = Dividend ( 1.07)
Dividend = 4.9/1.07
Dividend = $4.58
Suppose you bought a bond with an annual coupon rate of 4.2 percent one year ago for $900. The bond sells for $950 today. a. Assuming a $1,000 face value, what was your total dollar return on this investment over the past year? b. What was your total nominal rate of return on this investment over the past year? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. If the inflation rate last year was 2.5 percent, what was your total real rate of return on this investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a) total return = ($1,000 x 4.2%) + ($950 - $900) = $92
b) nominal rate of return = total return / total investment = $92 / $900 = 10.22%
c) we calculate the approximate real rate of return = nominal rate of return - inflation rate = 10.22% - 2.5% = 7.72%
if we want to determine the exact real rate of return:
exact real rate of return = [(1 + nominal rate) / (1 + inflation rate)] - 1 = (1.1022 /1.025) - 1 = 7.53%

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $900 a month in a stock account and $600 a month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 8 percent, and the bond account will pay 5 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a return of 6 percent. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 15-year withdrawal period
Answer:
$15,533.69
Explanation:
the future value of your stock account = $900 x 1,490.48048 (FV annuity factor, 0.6667%, 360 periods) = $1,341,432.43
the future value of your bond account = $600 x 832.32019 (FV annuity factor, 0.4167%, 360 periods) = $499,392.11
after 30 years, the balance of your 2 accounts = $1,840,824.54
the monthly withdrawal = $1,840,824.54 / 118.50531 (PV annuity factor, 0.5%, 180 periods) = $15,533.69

Requirement 3. If Radig Travel expects each helicopter to make, on average, 1,200 round-trips in the coming year, what should its estimated operating budget for the helicopter fleet be? Radig Travel's estimated operating budget for all 8 helicopters in the fleet combined should b
Answer:
the first part of the question is missing:
"Radig Travel offers helicopter service from suburban towns to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City. Each of its 8 helicopters makes between 1,000 and 2,000 round-trips per year. The records indicate that a helicopter that has made 1,000
Round-trips in the year incurs an average operating cost of $300 per round-trip, and one that has made 2,000 round-trips in the year incurs an average operating cost of $250 per round-trip.
Using the high-low method, estimate the annual operating costs:"
variable costs per trip (per helicopter) = ($500,000 - $300,000) / (2,000 - 1,000) = $200,000 / 1,000 = $200 per trip
fixed costs = $500,000 - (2,000 x $200) = $500,000 - $400,000 = $100,000
the estimated operating budget per helicopter = $100,000 + (1,200 x $200) = $100,000 + $240,000 = $340,000
operating budget for the whole fleet (8 helicopters) = 8 x $340,000 = $2,720,000

A profit-maximizing firm in a competitive market that is producing on a production curve where the marginal product of labor is diminishing also has
Answer: A. a downward-sloping labor demand curve.
Explanation:
The labor demand curve is plotted with the quantity of labor demanded vs the real wages paid to labor. In a firm that is producing in a market with a diminishing marginal product of labor, the demand curve will be downward sloping to reflect that the more labor that a company has, the less it pays them.
This is because the extra labor is bringing in less additional revenue and so will need to be paid accordingly to reflect that as more labor is hired, the output decreases.
Suppose you invested in the Ishares High Yield Fund (HYG) a month ago. It paid a dividend of today and then you sold it for . What was your dividend yield and capital gains yield on the investment?
Complete Question:
Suppose you invested $100 in the Ishares High Yield Fund HYG your dividend yield and capital gains yield on the investment?
It paid a dividend of $2 today and then you sold it for $95. What was Dividend Yield and Capital Gains Yield on the investment?
Answer:
Dividend Yield is 2%
Capital Gains Yield is -5%
Explanation:
Dividend Yield:
We can calculate the Dividend Yield using the following formula:
Dividend Yield = D0 / Initial Stock Price
Here
D1 was Dividend paid just now and is $2 per share
Initial Stock Price before the dividend payment was $100 per share
By putting values, we have:
Dividend Yield = $2 per share / $100 per share = 2%
Capital Gains Yield:
We can find capital gains yield by using following formula:
Capital Gains Yield = (P1 - P0) / P0
Here
P1 is $95
P0 is $100
By putting values we have:
Capital Gains Yield = ($95 - $100) / $100 = -5%
