2. We note that the word 'macro' indicates large scope, while 'micro' indicates a smaller scope. And so, the difference is that microeconomics concentrates on the behavior of individual consumers and firms, while macroeconomics focusses on the performance of the entire economy.
"If I didn't have class tonight, I would save the $4 campus parking fee and spend four hours at work where I earn $15 per hour." The opportunity cost of attending class this evening is:
Answer:
the opportunity cost is $64
Explanation:
The computation of the opportunity cost to attend the class at the evening is
= Parking fee saved + earning per hour × number of hours
where,
Parking fee saved is $4
Earning per hour is $15
And, the number of hours is 4
Now place these values to the above formula
So, the opportunity cost of attending the class is
= $4 + $15 × 4
= $4 + $60
= $64
hence, the opportunity cost is $64

In 1990, Johnson Company purchased a building for . In 2020, a real estate professional says the building has a fair value of . In 2020, a similar building down the street recently sold for $900,000. What value, before consideration of accumulated depreciation, is reported for the building on the balance sheet at December 31, 2020?
Answer:
The numbers are missing in this question, but I will use make my own:
"In 1990, Johnson Company purchased a building for $400,000. In 2020, a real estate professional says the building has a fair value of $950,000."
The building must be reported at purchase cost (following the historical cost principle) and the only adjustment to its carrying value is accumulated depreciation. Fixed assets must always be reported at purchase cost and in this case would be $400,000.

Leveraged ETFs (exchange-traded funds) are risky investments that can yield very high returns but of course also involve a large risk. Usually normal ETFs work on a 1:1 basis, leveraged ETFs work on a 200% to 300% basis, this means that for every dollar invested, it will borrow 1 or 2 dollars more and invest them.
An ETF follows a stock index, e.g. Nasdaq, S%&P 500, etc., and when the index increases by 1%, it will also increase by 1%. If the ETF is leveraged, the possibilities of gains or losses multiplies by 2 or 3.

The long-run aggregate supply curve shifts left if… Group of answer choices The capital stock decreases All of these answers are correct Immigration increases Technology advances
Answer:
The capital stock decreases
Explanation:
Options “ The capital stock decreases” is the correct answer because the decrease in capital stock will reduce production for example, if the number of plants or factories of a company decreases then its production capacity will also decrease. Therefore, the supply curve will shift left leftwards. Moreover, immigration increases the number of laborers, and advancement in technology increases the efficiency of production. Therefore, in such cases, the supply curve shifts rightwards.

Two brothers, Mark and Rick, each inherit $6000. Mark invests his inheritance in a savings account with an annual return of 2.5%, while Rick invests his inheritance in a CD paying 5.8% annually. How much more money than Mark does Rick have after 1 year?
Answer:
$198
Explanation:
Two brothers Mark and Rick each inherit $6,000
Mark invests his money in a savings account with an annual return of 2.5%
After one year the interest payment that will be received by Mark can be calculated as follows
= $6,000 × 2.5/100
= $6,000 × 0.025
= $150
Rick invests his portion of the money in a CD paying 5.8% annually
The amount of interest that will be received by Rick after one year can be calculated as follows
= $6,000 × 5.8/100
= $6,000 × 0.058
= $348
Therefore the amount of money that Rick has over Mark after a period of one year can be calculated as follows
= $348-$150
= $198
Hence Rick has $198 more than Mark after one year
If an economy can produce a maximum of 100 units of good X and the opportunity cost of 1X is always 5Y, then what is the maximum number of units of good Y the economy can produce
Answer:
500 Y
Explanation:
Opportunity cost can simply be defined as the cost of an alternative forgotten in order to acquire a particular good. For an example , if i have to forgo buying a sugar in order to buy bread , the opportunity cost of the bread is the cost of sugar that i did not buy.
In the scenario given , the opportunity cost of 1x is 5y. This means that for each x , 5 y have to be forgone. Now, if the maximum units that can be produced is 100 x, the equivalent maximum number of Y = 100 * 5 = 500.
The contribution approach to the income statement:Group of answer choicesOrganizes costs on a functional basis.Shows a contribution margin rather than a net operating income figure at the bottom of the statement.Is useful to managers in planning and decision making.Can only be used by manufacturing companies.
Answer: Is useful to managers in planning and decision making.
Explanation:
The Contribution approach to the income statement helps the company understand better the behaviour of it's variable and fixed assets because the Contribution Margin approach first subtracts variable costs from revenue and then subtracts fixed costs.
This allows the company to know which of the costs are more taxing on the company thereby enabling the company to know which to work on. It is therefore useful to managers in planning and decision making.

Continuity of the business
Explanation:
The business continuity assumption says that the loss or disaster would not significantly affect the functioning of the business operation and Business units, thus the costs must be recognized as per the business continuing basis. If the business units are severely affected and we are closing down the business unit then the event would result in presenting the event in discontinued operations in the financial statement or will be presented as break up basis, depending upon the severity of the event. Break-up basis is the method of presenting financial statements that signify that the entity's assets will be realised in near future because of liquidating the entity.
An investment of $ was made by a business club. The investment was split into three parts and lasted for one year. The first part of the investment earned 8% interest, the second 6%, and the third 9%. Total interest from the investments was The interest from the first investment was times the interest from the second. Find the amounts of the three parts of the investment. What is the amount of the first part of the investment? $ nothing What is the amount of the second part of the investment? $ nothing What is the amount of the third part of the investment? $ nothing Enter your answer in each of the answer boxes.
Answer:
18,000 is invested at 8%.
12,000 is invested at 6%.
20,000 is invested at 9%.
Explanation:
x = amount invested at 8%.
y = amount invested at 6%.
z = amount invested at 9%.
x + y + z = 50,000
.08x + .06y + .09z = 3960
interest on the first investment is equal to 2 times interest on the second investment.
.08x = 2 * .06y
solve for x to get x = .12y/.08 = 1.5y
since .08x = .12y, you can replace .08x with .12y.
since x = 1.5y, you can replace x with 1.5y
your two equations of x + y + z = 50,000 and .08x + .06y + .09z = 3960 become:
1.5y + y + z = 50,000
.12y + .06y + .09z = 3960
combine like terms in both equations to get: 2.5y + z = 50,000
.18y + .09z = 3960
you now have 2 equations with 2 unknown variables which can be solved simultaneously for a unique solution.
we will eliminate the z variable from the 2 equations in the following manner.
multiply both sides of the first eqution by 9 and multiply both sides of the second equation by 100.
you will get:
2.5y + z = 50,000 becomes 22.5y + 9z = 450,000.
.18y + .09z = 3960 becomes 18y + 9z = 396,000.
the 2 equations are now:
22.5y + 9z = 450,000
18y + 9z = 396,000
subtract the second equation from the first to get:
4.5y = 54,000
divide both sides of this equation by 4.5 to get:
y = 12,000
since x = 1.5y, then x must be equal to 18,000
since x + y + z = 50,000, then z must be equal to 20,000
you have:
x = 18,000
y = 12,000
z = 20,000
the interest on each of these investments is:
.08 * 18,000 = 1,440
.06 * 12,000 = 720
.09 * 20,000 = 1,800
add up the investments and you get 50,000
add up the interest and you get 3,960
the interest on the first investment is 2 times the interest on the second investment because 1,440 = 2 * 720.
all results are confirmed as good.
your solution is:
18,000 is invested at 8%.
12,000 is invested at 6%.
20,000 is invested at 9%.

Grant started a business this year. He earned $200,000 in revenues and had $150,000 in expenses. His other alternative would have been to go back to his old job, where he earned $70,000. What are Grant's "true" profits from his business
Answer:
Profit from the business = $50000.
Explanation:
Total revenue from the business = $200000
The total cost that occurred in business = $150000
Now we have to calculate the true profit from the business. So, it can be calculated by subtracting the total cost from the total revenue.
Below is the formula to find the profit.
Profit = total revenue – total cost
Now insert the given values in the formula.
Profit from the business = $200000 - $150000
Profit from the business = $50000
The amount of Grant's "true" profits from his business is $50000. Profits are termed as the total revenues that the firm earns on selling the produced goods and services.
Given information are:
Total revenue from the business = $200000
The total cost that occurred in business = $150000
Computation of profit:
Profit = Total Revenue- Total Cost
Profit = $200000- $150000
Profit = $50000
Therefore, the amount of profit the company earned is $50000.

Companies' considerations that range from cultural to political barriers to demographic considerations in the workforce and international aspects such as compensation describe
Answer:
The correct response will be "Global human resource management ".
Explanation:
Above mentioned management, also associated with global HRM, seems to be a paragliding concept that incorporates all facets including its HR, salaries, and benefits, as well as leadership development operation of the company operating on such a worldwide scale. As technological developments make life increasingly simpler for companies, growth strategy has now become a highly detailed perhaps not a requirement.Bond Issue On January 1, 2019, Lightfoot Corporation issues 10%, 5-year bonds with a face value of $275,000 when the effective interest rate is 9%. Interest is to be paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31.
Required:
Prepare the journal entry to record the first interest payment on June 30, 2019.
Answer and Explanation:
Before recording the journal entry first we have to determine the following calculations
Semi Annual interest payment is
= $275,000 x 10% × 6 ÷ 12
= $13,750
The Present value of principal is
= Par value of bonds × Present value factor (r%, n)
= $275,000 × Present value factor (4.5%, 10)
= $275,000 × 0.64393
= $177,080.75
Now Present value of interest is
= Interest × Present value annuity factor (r%, n)
= $13,750 × Present value annuity factor (4.5%, 10)
= $13,750 × 7.91272
= $108,799.90
Now
The Selling price of bond is
= Present value of principal + Present value of interest
= $177,080.75 + $108,799.9
= $285,881
Interest expense to be recorded is
= Carrying value of bonds × Effective interest rate × 6 ÷12
= $285,881 × 9% × 6 ÷ 12
= $12,865
And,
The Premium on bonds payable is
= Semi annual interest payment - Interest expense
= $13,750 - $12,865
= $885
Now the journal entry is
Interest expense $12,865
Premium on bonds payable $885
To Cash $13,750
(Being the interest payment is recorded)
