Many demographers predict that the United States will have zero populationgrowth in the twenty-first century, in contrast to average population growth of about 1percent per year in the twentieth century. Use the Solow model to forecast the effect ofthis slowdown in population growth on the growth of total output and the growth ofoutput per person. Consider the effects both in the steady state and in the transition between steady states
Answers
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
- The foremost thing is to first consider steady states. The Sluggish population growth rate swings in the line representing population growth and depreciation to the downward trend.
- The new stable rate has a superior level of capital per worker thereby having a higher level of output per worker.
- In Steady state, the entire output develops at rate n, whereas the output rate per worker grows at figure 0. Hence, slower population growth will hamper the figure of total output growth, but the rate of per-worker output growth will be the same.
- Now reflect on the transition. We know that the constant-state level of output per worker is higher with little population growth. Hence, for the period of the transition to the new steady state, output per worker should grow at a rate faster than 0 for a sometime.

Answer:
Laurel = -8.38%
Hardy = -14.85%
Explanation:
Present Price of Bond :
Laurel, Inc. = $1000
Hardy Corp. = $1000
After Percentage Price would be
Laurel, Inc = Present Value (i=6%, n=12, PMT=50, FV=1000) = $916.16
Hardy Corp = Present Value (i=6%, n=30, PMT=50, FV=1000) = $851.54
Percentage change in price
Laurel, Inc = (916.16-1000)/1000 = -8.38%
Hardy Corp = (851.54-1000)/1000 = -14.85%

Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
Mathematically,
Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life
It is recorded by debiting depreciation and crediting accumulated depreciation.
When interest is incurred as an expense but yet to be paid, it will be accrued for by Debiting Interest expense and crediting accrued Interest. The same applies to salaries incurred but yet to be paid.
When Supplies is purchased, Debit supplies and credit Cash/Accounts payable. As Supplies are used up, debit supplies expense (with the amount used) and Credit Supplies account.
Amount of supplies used up = $550 - $100

When a fee is received in advance for a service yet to be rendered, the revenue for such fee is said to be unearned. The entries required are

Earned revenue = $4,000 - $900

Answer:
The correct answer is option (D)
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The present value of equity factor for 5 years at 12% discount are = 3.60478
Then,
The present value of servicing costing = -$500 * 3.60478 = -$1802.39
Thus,
The present value of cost to buy =- $18000
The total Present value = -18000 + 1802.39 = -$19802.39
So,
The equivalent annual annuity = total Present value / present value of equity factor
= -$19802.39 / 3.60478
= -$5493.37
Therefore, the equivalent annual annuity of this deal is -$5493.37

Answers
Answer:
1. Overhead rate = Overhead costs / Direct material costs
Overhead rate = $684,000 / $1,900,000
Overhead rate = 0.36
Overhead rate = 36%
2. How much direct labor cost and overhead cost are assigned to this job?
Total cost of job in process $71,000
Less: Overhead applied $7,920
($22,000 * 36%)
Less: Material cost of job in process $22,000
Direct labor cost $41,080
Hence, direct labor cost is $41,080 and Overhead cost is $7,920
Final answer:
The predetermined overhead rate is 36%. For the last job with direct materials cost of $22,000, the direct labor cost assigned remains $210,000 and the overhead cost assigned is $7,920.
Explanation:
To answer your questions, first we need to determine the predetermined overhead rate which is the ratio of overhead costs to direct materials costs. Given that the total overhead costs were $684,000 and the total direct material cost was $1,900,000, the predetermined overhead rate would be $684,000 / $1,900,000 which equals approximately 0.36 or 36%.
Secondly, to calculate how much direct labor cost and overhead cost would be assigned to the last job which has a direct materials cost of $22,000: the direct labor cost remains the same as provided, which is $210,000. However, the overhead cost would be calculated by multiplying the direct materials cost of the job by the overhead rate (0.36), giving $22,000 * 0.36 = $7,920.

Answers
Answer: Option B
Explanation: As we know that,
where,
Operating income = $60,000
total asset = current asset base - decrease in current asset base
total asset = $500,000 - $120,000
= $ 380,000
Now, putting the values into equation we get :-
= 15.79%
