The Dominican Republic is considering placing a room tax on Eco Hotels. The preliminary analysis requires them to calculate consumer and producer surplus before the tax. Below are the demand and supply equations for eco hotel rooms in the Dominican Republic.
Demand equation: Qd = 2500 - 5P
Supply equation: Qs = 1OP - 500
Calculate consumer surplus. Number
Calculate producer surplus.
Answer:
The consumer surplus is 225,000
The producer surplus is 112,500
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Demand equation: Qd = 2500 - 5P
Supply equation: Qs = 1OP - 500
Therefore, the equilibrium is at demand equal to the supply
2500-5P=10P-500
15P=3000
P=200
Q=10P-500=10*200-500=1500
The inverse demand function is
P=500-0.2Q
Therefore, CS=0.5*(Pmax -Pe)*Qe
=0.5*(500-200)*1500
=225,000
The consumer surplus is 225,000
Regarding PS, maximum price or y-intercept of the demand curve
Pe and Qe are equilibrium price and quantity the inverse supply curve
P=50+0.1Q
PS=0.5*(Pe-Pl)Qe
Pl=y intercept of supply curve
PS=0.5*(200-50)*1500
=112,500
The producer surplus is 112,500
The following data are accumulated by Watershed Inc. in evaluating two competing capital investment proposals: Project A Project Z Amount of investment $55,000 $50,000 Useful life 12 years 15 years Estimated residual value $5,000 $6,000 Estimated total income over the useful life $57,600 $63,000 Determine the expected average rate of return for each project.
Answer:
Project Average rate of return
A 16%
Z 15%
Explanation:
The average rate of return (ARR) is the proportion of the average investment that is earned as profit.
Average rate of return(ARR) = average operating income/ Average investment
Project A=
Average income = 57,600/12 = 4800
Average investment = (55,000 + 5,000)/2 = 30000
ARR = 4,800/30,000 × 100 = 16%
Projecr Z
Average income = 63,000/15= 4200
Aveage investment = (50,000 + 6,000)/2= 28,000
ARR = 4,200/28,000× 100 = 15%
At the annual meeting of the HR division at an insurance company, the vice president of HR noted that pay compression was a problematic phenomenon for certain jobs for which there was high demand but low supply. This problem was especially acute for jobs in actuarial science and legal services. The vice president of HR has hired you as a compensation consultant to help them formulate an action plan for dealing with this situation. What would you say is the best solution to this situation?
Answer:
Prepare high performing employees for promotions to jobs at higher salary levels.
Explanation:
Pay compression occurs when there is little difference in pay between employees regardless of experience and skill they possess. This leads to low motivation ong employees to perform above others since compensation is the same.
In the given instance this is the problem in actuarial science and legal jobs where there is high demand and low supply of talent.
To remedy this there needs to be a framework to compensate high performers.
Promoting them to jobs that have higher salary will be a great way to recognise and motivate high fliers

Bluebird Mfg. has received a special one-time order for 15,000 bird feeders at $3.50 per unit. Bluebird currently produces and sells 75,000 units at $7.50 each. This level represents 80% of its capacity. These bird feeders would be marketed under the wholesaler's name and would not affect Bluebird's sales through its normal channels. Production costs for these units are $4.25 per unit, which includes $2.50 variable cost and $1.75 fixed cost. If Bluebird accepts this additional business, the effect on net income will be:
Answer:
Effect on income= $15,000 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Offer= 15,000 bird feeders at $3.50 per unit.
Production costs:
$2.50 variable cost
Because it is a special offer that won't affect actual sales and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= 15,000*(3.5 - 2.5)
Effect on income= $15,000 increase
g Suppose that more British decide to vacation in the U.S. and that the British purchase more U.S. Treasury bonds. Ignoring how payments are made for these purchases, a. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself raises U.S. net capital outflow. b. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow. c. the first action by itself lowers U.S. net exports, the second action by itself raises U.S. net capital outflow. d. the first action by itself lowers U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow.
Answer:
b. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow.
Explanation:
Net exports are equal to the difference between the value of a nation's total export of goods, services and the value of all the goods and services it imports.
U.S. net export raises as more British decide to vacation in the U.S. and U.S. net capital outflow reduces as the British purchase more U.S. Treasury bonds.
So, option b is correct.
Reliance Corporation sold 4,500 units of its product at a price of $20 per unit. Total variable cost per unit is $11.00, consisting of $10.10 in variable production cost and $0.90 in variable selling and administrative cost. Compute the contribution margin for the company.
Answer:
$40,500
Explanation:
A Companies Contribution Margin is a product's price minus all associated variable costs, this final value gives the products incremental profit earned for each unit sold. Therefore in this scenario, the Contribution Margin for the company is as follows
(4,500 * $20) - (4,500 * $11)
$90,000 - $49,500
$40,500
Therefore the final Contribution Margin for the company is $40,500 dollars.

If your employer offers a retirement plan, don’t participate in it. Don’t bother to set target dates for achieving your financial goals. Pay credit card balances in full each month. Start saving early in life and save throughout your life.
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
If your employer offers a retirement plan, don’t participate in it. Yes.
Having a retirement plan with your employer especially one in which you are a 100% vested is a drain on your income. It might have benefits in future when you retire but if you want to engage in financial planning, you need to have access to every penny and that includes the money going to the retirement plan.
Don’t bother to set target dates for achieving your financial goals. No
Setting a target date for various amounts in your financial goals enables you to work towards them with more determination. It is important to set target dates.
Pay credit card balances in full each month. Yes
Paying your credit card balance in full every month helps you avoid interest accruing as well as increasing your credit score. It is therefore very important to pay off the balance in full every month which will be easier as long as you charge things to it that you can afford.
Start saving early in life and save throughout your life. Yes.
The more you save the more you have to invest. This is why you should start saving early if you want to engage in financial planning. You need to formulate the determination to save every time. And don't just save for saving's case, save to invest.

Assume India can produce either 15 bottles of milk or 50 cartons of eggs using all of its available resources, and Indonesia can produce either 25 bottles of milk or 35 cartons of eggs using all of its available resources. After each country fully specializes in producing the good in which it has a comparative advantage, how many cartons of eggs will India produce
Answer:
50 cartons of eggs
Explanation:
The comparative advantage is a principle in which a country specializes in the production a good in which it has a lower opportunity cost than others.
Bottles of milk cartons of eggs
India 15 50
Indonesia 25 35
In this situation, the opportunity cost for India of producing 1 bottle of milk is producing 3.33 cartons of eggs. The opportunity cost for Indonesia of producing 1 bottle of milk is producing 1.4 cartons of eggs. This means that Indonesia has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in producing bottles of milk.
In the other part, the opportunity cost for India of producing 1 carton of eggs is producing 0.3 bottles of milk and the opportunity cost for Indonesia of producing 1 carton of eggs is producing 0.71 bottles of milk. This means that India has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in producing cartons of eggs.
According to this, India would specialize in producing eggs as it has a comparative advantage and the country will produce 50 cartons of eggs.
Investment Management Inc. (IMI) uses the capital market line to make asset allocation recommendations. IMI derives the
following forecasts:
• Expected return on the market portfolio: 12%.
• Standard deviation on the market portfolio: 20%.
• Risk-free rate: 5%.
Samuel Johnson seeks 'Ml's advice for a portfolio asset allocation. Johnson informs IMI that he wants the standard deviation of the portfolio to equal half of the standard deviation for the market portfolio. Using the capital market line, what expected return can IMI provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint?
Answer:
The expected return that IMI can provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint is 8.5%
Explanation:
Capital Market Line (CML)
Expected return on the market portfolio, E([tex]r_m[/tex]) = 12 %
Standard deviation on the market portfolio, σ[tex]_p[/tex] = 20%
Risk-free rate, [tex]r_f[/tex] = 5%
E([tex]r_c[/tex]) = [tex]r_f[/tex] + [ E([tex]r_p[/tex]) - [tex]r_f[/tex] ] × ( σ[tex]_c[/tex] ÷ σ[tex]_p[/tex])
= 0.05 + [ 0.12 - 0.05] × (0.10 ÷ 0.20)
= 8.5%
Rovinsky Corporation, a company that produces and sells a single product, has provided its contribution format income statement for November. Sales (5,700 units) $ 319,200 Variable expenses 188,100 Contribution margin 131,100 Fixed expenses 106,500 Net operating income $ 24,600 If the company sells 5,300 units, its net operating income should be closest to:
Answer:
Net operating income is $ 15,400.00
Explanation:
The company's operating income if it sells 5,300 units is calculated thus:
sales (5,300*$319,200/5,700) $296,800.00
variable expenses($188,100/5700*5300) ($174,900.00)
Contribution $ 121,900.00
Fixed expenses ($106,500.00)
Net operating expenses $ 15,400.00
The net operating expenses dropped when 5,300 units were sold because the higher the volume, the more the contribution towards covering fixed expenses
Answer:
Net operating income= $15,400
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales (5,700 units) $319,200
Variable expenses 188,100
Contribution margin 131,100
Fixed expenses 106,500
Net operating income $ 24,600
Sales now= 5,300 units
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 131,100/5,700= $23
Contribution margin for 5,300:
Total contribution margin= 23*5,300= $121,900
Fixed costs= 106,500
Net operating income= $15,400
Suppose that the government implements expansionary fiscal policy that raises aggregate demand, but the policy is unanticipated. According to new classical theory, in the short run the price level would ____________ and Real GDP would ______________. In the long run, new classical theory would predict that the price level would ______________ compared to its original long-run equilibrium level and that Real GDP would ____________.
Answer:
Rise;rise;rise;remain unchanged.
Explanation:
The new classical theory also known as the neoclassical economic theory is one that repudiates and tends to restructure the John M. Keynes theory of macroeconomics, popularly referred to as the Keynesian Macroeconomics theory.
The new classical theory argues that efficient demand and supply is the most important feature or key behind the level of output, pricing, and consumption of goods and services by the people at a specific period of time in a country. Also, the new classical theory assumes that the wages of the employees in a country is flexible in contrast to the Keynesian macroeconomic theory.
Suppose that the government implements expansionary fiscal policy that raises aggregate demand, but the policy is unanticipated. According to new classical theory, in the short run the price level would rise and Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would rise. In the long run, new classical theory would predict that the price level would rise compared to its original long-run equilibrium level and that Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would remain unchanged.

Ivanna, who has three children under age 13, worked full-time while her spouse, Sergio, was attending college for nine months during the year. Ivanna earned $28,000 and incurred $9,100 of child care expenses. Ivanna and Sergio's credit for child and dependent care expenses is?
Answer:
$1,260
Explanation:
Remember, we are dealing with a case of a married couple. Therefore, we apply the tax credit rule patterning to legally married couples.
Note that the rule is restricted to the lesser of
- real expenses,
- $6,000 (in this case they have three children which implies they have more than two qualifying children),
- the total earned income of the lowest taxpayer in the family.
Since the rule gives an exception for students. We could assumed that Sergio earned $500 for each month he was attending college. That is 9 * $500 = $4,500; the Credit = $4,500 * 28%= 1,260
Based on the period Sergio attended college and the relevant tax laws, Sergio's credit is $1,260.
When a person is going to college, they are assumed to make $500 per month. Sergio's earnings are therefore:
= 500 x 9 months
= $4,500
With a joint Adjusted Gross Income of $28,000 for the both of them, they can get a tax credit of 28% of their earnings.
As Sergio is assumed to have made $4,500, the tax credit is:
= 28% x 4,500
= $1,260
In conclusion, Sergio's credit is $1,260.
