How much would Israel’s nominal GDP growth be next year if it experienced real GDP growth next year the same as its average over the past 50 years, with an inflation rate of 3% and population growth of 1%?

Answer:

1.3%

Explanation:

The real interest rate is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate from the nominal interest rate.

real interest rate=nominal interest rate-inflation rate

nominal interest rate=4.7%

inflation rate= 3.4%

real interest rate=4.7%-3.4%

real interest rate=1.3%

According to this, the answer is that the real interest rate is 1.3%.

Answer:

Orange Co.'s budget will include the cost of production, which is made up of raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.  The above cost of production and the accompanying items will not be found in the budget of Pineapple Company.  The latter's budget will focus on purchase of goods for sale (instead of raw materials) and inventories of finished goods (instead of raw materials and work in process).  Orange Co. determines its product cost per unit from the cost of production divided by the quantity produced.  Pineapple Company's product cost is based on the purchase price of goods, which includes the manufacturer's profit.

Explanation:

The operations and accounting for the cost of production of Orange Co. will be different from Pineapple Company's.  The difference is a reflection of their statuses as manufacturer and merchandiser respectively.  Orange Co. manufactures and sells goods while Pineapple Company sell manufactured goods.

Customer access strategy is a framework or a set of standards, guidelines and processes, which defines the means by which a customer and the organization can interact, and  means by which the customer has access to:

The arear of access are mainly information (value of the product, price of products, how products work) and logistics (means of getting the products, customer service on the after-purchase needs etc).

It has been studied extensively that companies are spending 3 to 4 times as much money on creating customer access than they do on advertising, this is because even if advertising is successful, the results will not be seen if customer access is not successful, and having an efficient customer access strategy can provide a competitive advantage to the producers.

Answer:

A) If you earned 10.5% interest each year, how much would you have when you turn 65?

assuming annual compounding:

future value = $5,000 x (1 + 10.5%)⁵⁶ = $1,340,471.47

B) If you earned 10.5% interest compounded monthly each year, how much would you have when you turn 65?

monthly compounding = 10.5% / 12 = 0.875% per month

future value = $5,000 x (1 + 0.875%)⁶⁷² = $1,743,869.89

C) If you wanted to have $2 million when you turn 65, what rate of interest would you need to earn assuming annual compounding?

$2,000,000 = $5,000 x (1 + r)⁵⁶

(1 + r)⁵⁶ = $2,000,000 / $5,000 = 400

(1 + r)⁵⁶ = 400

⁵⁶√(1 + r)⁵⁶ = ⁵⁶√400

1 + r = 1.1129

r = 1.1129 - 1 = 11.29%

Answer:

The GDP will increase.

Explanation:

The number of women taking a job will result in the rise of real GDP because their participation will increase the number of economic activities. Therefore, a rise in economic activities will boost the GDP. But it would be uncertain to say that the well being of the nation will be better off because daycare will harm the bond of children and parents. Moreover, lack of parental supervision will result in the low performance of children at the latter age and if the child is at the age in which breastfeeding is required then lack of breastfeeding may harm child's physical and mental health as well.

Answer:

6.47%

Explanation:

The computation of effective annual yield is shown below:-

Annual YTM = 6.37%

Semiannual YTM = 6.37% ÷ 2

= 3.185%

Effective Annual Yield = (1 + Semiannual YTM)^2 - 1

= (1 + 0.03185)^2 - 1

= 1.03185^2 - 1

= 1.0647 - 1

= 0.0647

or

= 6.47%

Hence, the effective annual yield is 6.47% i.e come after applying the above formula

Answer:

Cause-and-effect relationship - Cost of goods sold

This follows the cause and effect relationship because if the goods were not to be sold they would not have incurred a cost. Because the goods were sold, the business incurred costs.

Specific time period - Monthly salary payments to an office employee

The salary is monthly which means that it is for the specific time period of a month.

Answer:

the YTM is 9.38 %.

Explanation:

Bond Prices in most countries is expressed per $100. We shall use this as the Price for the bond in question.

Then the Yield to Maturity (YTM), r of the Bond can be determined as follows

Pv = - $103

pmt = ($100 × 9.80) ÷ 2 = $4.90

p/yr = 2

n = (14 - 2) × 2 = 24

Fv = $100

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator,  the Yield to Maturity (YTM), r is 9.38 %

Answer:

16.63%

Explanation:

effective annual rate (EAR) = (1 + periodic interest rates)^m - 1

M = number of compounding

periodic interest rates = 15.5 /12 = 1.29%

1.0129^12 - 1 = 0.166269 = 16.63%

Answer:

Answer:

By applying a process of natural hedging, with integrated operational management, logistics and infrastructural investments, Trafigura can diversify its activities and investments so that risks are flattened out.  For instance, its investments in storage and shipping capabilities ensure that if the demand for storage is low, the demand for shipping will increase and vice versa.

Furthermore, when Trafigura is not trading actively in the physical commodity, it can use its asset management, logistics, and distribution capabilities and globalized network of subsidiaries and activities to offset the low revenue from trading.  These diversified investments and assets, therefore, enhance and complement its various activities so that its risk profile is constantly being managed in a balanced manner without incurring so much risk costs.

Explanation:

Trafigura Group Pte. Ltd. according to sources, is one of the world's "largest independent and integrated commodity traders and a logistics, warehousing, asset management, mining, and energy distribution conglomerate."  As a multinational commodity trading company founded in 1993, Trafigura trades in base metals and energy, and is registered and headquartered in Singapore.

Answer:

outputs, short

Explanation:

Variable costs is an expense which changes as production output changes. When production is increasing, variable cost is increasing and when production is decreasing, variable cost is decreasing as well.

Variable costs can be seen as short-term as it can be adjusted.

Examples of variable costs are: utility costs, costs of raw materials, direct labor costs, etc.

Answer:

a) EOQ = 763 vaccines

annual total cost = $2,289.45

b) if order cost increase, then the EOQ will also increase since the total number of orders placed should decrease in order to keep total costs as low as possible.  

Explanation:

EOQ = √(2SD / H)

s = order cost = 140

h= holding cost per unit = 3

d = annual demand = 520 x 12 = 6,240

EOQ = √[(2 x 140 x 6,240) / 3] = 763.15 ≈ 763

annual total cost = [(6,240 / 763) x $140] + [(763 / 2) x $3] = $1,144.95 + $1,144.50 = $2,289.45

if K (I believe K = S) increases to lets says $200:

EOQ = √[(2 x 200 x 6,240) / 3] = 912 units

annual total cost = [(6,240 / 912) x $200] + [(912 / 2) x $3] = $1,368.42 + $1,368 = $2,736.42

if we used EOQ = 763, then:

annual total cost = [(6,240 / 763) x $200] + [(763 / 2) x $3] = $1,635.65 + $1,144.50 = $2,780.15

Answer:

Explanation:

The country that has a competitive advantage in producing something is the one that has less opportunity cost when they do so. In other words, they give up less of another good in order to produce a good.

The Japanese can either produce 4 cars or 5 tons of grain in a year. If they forgo 1 car therefore they produce 5/4 = 1.25 tons of grain per year.

If Americans forgo 1 car they produce 10/4 = 2.5 tons of grain.

Japan has a lower opportunity cost producing cars so they have a comparative advantage.

For Japan to produce 1 ton of grain they will forgo 5/4 = 0.8 cars. For Americans to produce 1 ton of grain they will forgo 4/10 = 0.4 cars.

America has a lower opportunity cost producing grain so they have a comparative advantage.

Answer:

18%

Explanation:

Lochemere is evaluating a taxable bond at 7%

= 7/100

= 0.07

The municipal bond is 5.75%

= 5.75/100

= 0.0575

Therefore the break even tax rate can be calculated as follows

Municipal bond = taxable bond × (1-tax rate)

0.0575= 0.07 × (1-t)

0.0575= 0.07(1-t)

1-t= 0.0575/0.07

1-t = 0.82

t= 1-0.82

t= 0.18×100

t= 18%

Hence the break-even tax rate is 18%

Answer:

a. Set point

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the maintenance of internal body environment within a given range.

The set point is the range around which normal body environment should be. For example the set point for body temperature is 37°C. The body works to maintain temperatures around this value.

When a stimulus happens the sensory organs sends the final to the control center.

The control centre ascertains if condition is around the set point.

It then sends signals to the effector to restore balance.

So when platelets release chemical signals to activate more platelets, it is a set point feedback loop trying to restore normal conditions.
