Consider the​ following: Year Population ​(Millions) Real GDP ​($ Billions) GDP Deflator 2018 121 2019 125 Calculate the percentage change in per capita real GDP between 2018 and​ 2019: nothing​%. ​(Enter your response as a percentage rounded to two decimal​ places.)

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%

Answer

a) $15

Explanation:

We will use the formula for Total labor variance to arrive at Standard rate.

Total labor variance = (Actual hours × Actual rate) - (Standard hours × Standard rate)

Substituting the data above into the formula, we'll have;

-$23,000 = (4,000 × $13) - (5,000 × SR)

-$23,000 = $52,000 - 5,000SR

Collect like terms

5,000SR = $52,000 + $23,000

5,000SR = $75,000

SR = $75,000 / 5,000

SR = $15

Answer:

$3,200 Favorable

Explanation:

For the computation of direct materials quantity variance first we need to find out the standard quantity which is shown below:-

Standard quantity = Standard quantity per unit × Number of units produced

= 2 gallon × 6,000

= 12,000

Direct materials quantity variance = (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) × Standard Price

= (12,000 - 11,200) × $4

= 800 × $4

= $3,200 Favorable

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.

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

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
