Consider the monthly market for whole grain bread in Tasmania with an upward sloping supply curve and a downward sloping demand curve. The current equilibrium price of whole grain bread is $3 per loaf and 30,000 loaves are bought and sold each month.

1. Draw a diagram showing the monthly market for whole grain bread in Tasmania. Include and label the demand curve, supply curve, equilibrium price and quantity.

2. If the price per loaf was temporarily $4 explain how the price would return to the equilibrium price of $3 per loaf.

3. If the wages of bakers who make the bread increase, show and explain any changes in demand or supply and equilibrium price and quantity of whole grain bread in Tasmania.

d. If the price of margarine increases show in a new diagram and explain any changes in demand or supply and equilibrium price and quantity for whole grain bread in Tasmania. State any assumptions you are making about the relationship between whole grain bread and margarine.

Present and Future Values of Single Cash Flows for Different Interest Rates

Use both the TVM equations and a financial calculator to find the following values. Round your answers to the nearest cent. (Hint: Using a financial calculator, you can enter the known values and then press the appropriate key to find the unknown variable. Then, without clearing the TVM register, you can "override" the variable that changes by simply entering a new value for it and then pressing the key for the unknown variable to obtain the second answer. This procedure can be used in parts b and d, and in many other situations, to see how changes in input variables affect the output variable.)

Questions 6, and 7 refer to the following information:

At the end of the year, a company offered to buy 4,740 units of a product from X Company for a special price of $11.00 each instead of the company's regular price of $18.00 each. The following information relates to the 65,000 units of the product that X Company made and sold to its regular customers during the year:

Fixed cost of goods sold for the year were $124,150, and fixed period costs were $68,250. Variable period costs include selling commissions equal to 3% of revenue.

6. Profit on the special order is

7. Assume the following two changes for the special order: 1) variable cost of goods sold will decrease by $0.73 per unit, and 2) there will be no selling commissions. What would be the effect of these two changes on the special order profit?

PLEASE ANSWER BOTH

You work for a large consulting firm and were assigned to the Gold Star LAN project. Work on the project is nearly completed and your clients at Gold Star appear to be pleased with your performance. During the course of the project, changes in the original scope had to be made to accommodate specific needs of managers at Gold Star. The costs of these changes were documented as well as overhead and submitted to the centralized accounting department. They processed the information and submitted a change order bill for your signature. You are surprised to see the bill is 10 percent higher than what you submitted. You contact Jim Messina in the accounting office and ask if a mistake has been made. He curtly replies that no mistake was made and that management adjusted the bill. He recommends that you sign the document. You talk to another project manager about this and she tells you off the record that overcharging clients on change orders is common practice in your firm. Would you sign the document? Why? Why not?

You are the senior system administrator in your company and are known for your Active Directory expertise. Your specialty is Group Policy Objects (GPO) and tracking changes. Your boss tells everyone about a tool developed by Microsoft called “Policy Analyzer” for tracking changes and troubleshooting GPO. He would like you to conduct a “lunch and learn” about Policy Analyzer for your Windows Administration Team. You realize that the product’s name has been changed to “Microsoft Security Configuration Toolkit”. Diplomatically conduct the lunch and learn and discuss the history of the tool, the name change, the features of the product and the benefits to your Windows Administration team in managing GPO.

A minimum of two references is required one of which can be your textbook.

8a.  Until fairly recently, the FED did not pay interest on bank reserves but a few years ago the FED changed its policy and currently pays interest on bank reserves.  Under its original policy, for every $100 in checkable deposits how much did banks sacrifice in lost interest income due to reserve requirements if a bank charged 11% on their loans to the public when the required reserve ratio was set at 8%?  

8b.  For every $100 in checkable deposits, how much would a bank lose in interest income (opportunity cost) due to reserve requirements if banks charged 16% on their loans to the public when the required reserve ratio was 15%?  Finally, if you were an investor holding shares of common stock in a commercial bank, how are bank profits (and therefore your returns) affected by changes in the required reserve ratio?  Similarly, how are bank profits affected by changes in the market interest rates which your bank charges on loans to the public?

QUESTION 37

Because of the problems of adverse selection and moral hazard, it has been suggested that the World Bank and International Monetary Fund

Suppose you are working as an economic consultant and you are supposed to explain the consequences of the following cases to your clients. Answer each part separately. a) (3 pts) Suppose due to a war in a neighbouring country, the country received refugees which increased the labour force. Also, there is a huge reduction in global oil prices. By using the Aggregate Supply curve, show the possible effects of these two changes on the price level and aggregate output in the Short-Run. Explain each step in your graph. b) (3 pts) Suppose there is an increase in interest rate. By using the Aggregate Expenditure (AE) – Aggregate Output (Y) graph, show the effects of this change on AE and Y in the Short-Run. Then, show the effect of increased interest rate by using the IS curve, explain what will happen to the IS curve. c) (3 pts) Now suppose government expenditure (G) increases and there is an increase in the overall price level (P). By using the IS curve and Fed (Central Bank) Rule curve graph, explain the effect of these changes on the interest rate and output in the ShortRun. Explain each step in your graph. d) (3 pts) Now assume that there is an increase in government expenditure (G), an increase in the labour force and a reduction in oil prices. By using the AS-AD graph, explain the effects of these changes on equilibrium output and equilibrium price level in the Short-Run. Explain each step in your graph. e) (3 pts) Now assume that for some reason Aggregate Demand shifts to the left (downwards) and suppose wages fully adjust. By using the AS-AD graph, show the effects of this shift on the equilibrium output and price level in the Short-Run and in the Long-run.
