question-1-answer-questions-1-4-based-on-the-following-information-charles-is-starting-an-online-book-seller-business-before-doing-that-he-was-working-for-a-large-publisher-at-a-salary-of-75-56277

Answer questions 1-4 based on the following information: Charles is starting an online book seller business. Before doing that, he was working for a large publisher at a salary of $75,000 per year (this includes the value of his non-wage benefits). He has savings of $50,000 that earn 5% interest per year. To start his business, he wants to convert his basement (which could be rented out for $6,000 per year) into an office, which would cost $50,000 (this cost includes equipment and supplies), which he pays for with his savings. He would be the firm's only worker, so he pays nothing for labor. Expected revenues from the first year are $125,000. What are Charles' explicit costs? A. $50,000 B. $52,500 C. $58,500 D. $133,500 QUESTION 2 What are Charles' implicit costs? A. $75,000 B. $77,500 C. $81,000 D. $83,500 QUESTION 3 How much economic profit would Charles earn? A. -$8,500 B. 0 C. $41,500 D. $75,000 QUESTION 4 Suppose Charles has an uncle that approves of entrepreneurship, and he loans Charles the $50,000 he needs to start his business at 0% interest. How does that affect Charles' economic profit? A. No effect B. His economic profit would increase by $2,500 C. His economic profit would increase by $50,000 D. His economic profit would increase by $52,500 QUESTION 5 What counts as an implicit cost? A. Foregone wages B. Foregone rent C. Foregone interest D. All of the above

1. An economy is described by the following equations: C =500 + 0.75(Y − T ) I =1, 000 − 50r M/P =Y − 200r G =1, 000 T =1, 000 M =6, 000 P =2 a. Drive and graph the IS curve and the LM curve. Calculate the equilibrium interest rate and income. Label that point A on your graph. b. Suppose a newly elected president cuts taxes by 20%. Assuming that the money supply is held constant, what are the new equilibrium interest rate and income? What is the tax multiplier? c. Now assume that central bank adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant. What is the new equilibrium income? What must the new money supply be? What is the tax multiplier? d. Now assume that the central bank adjust the money supply to hold income constant. What is the new equilibrium interest rate?What must the money supply be? What is the tax multiplier?

Exercise 1 (Simple Rate of Return Method) The management of Ann Gee MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for P80,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs P33,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost P10,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a scrap value of P5,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: Compute the simple rate of return on the new automated bottling machine. Exercise 2 (Basic Present Value Concepts) Each of the following parts is independent. (Ignore income taxes.) 1. Amano Freightlines plans to build a new garage in three years to have more space for repairing its trucks. The garage will cost P400,000. What lump-sum amount should the company invest now to have the P400,000 available at the end of the three-year period? Assume that the company can invest money at: a. Eight percent. b. Twelve percent. 2. Lorna Products, Inc., can purchase a new copier that will save P5,000 per year in copying costs. The copier will last for six years and have no salvage value. What is the maximum purchase price that Lorna Products would be willing to pay for the copier if the company's required rate of return is: a. Ten percent? b. Sixteen percent? 3. Tom has just won the million-peso slot machine jackpot at a gambling casino. The casino will pay her P50,000 per year for 20 years as the payoff. If Tom can invest money at a 10% rate of return, what is the present value of her winnings? Did she really win a million pesos? Explain.
