3. The classical dichotomy and the neutrality of money

The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this distinction.

Amy spends all of her money on paperback novels and mandarins. In 2015, she earned $18.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9.00, and the price of a mandarin was $1.00.

Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable? Check all that apply.

Amy's wage is 2 paperback novels per hour in 2015.

Amy's wage is $18.00 per hour in 2015.

The price of a mandarin is $1.00 in 2015.

Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply.

Amy's wage is $18.00 per hour in 2015.

Amy's wage is 18 mandarins per hour in 2015.

The price of a paperback novel is 9 mandarins in 2015.

Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2015 and 2020. In 2020, Amy's wage has risen to $36.00 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18.00 and the price of a mandarin is $2.00.

In 2020, the relative price of a paperback novel is   .

Between 2015 and 2020, the nominal value of Amy's wage   , and the real value of her wage   .

During 2020 credit sales were $2,100,000 and cash collections from customers were $3,700,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $42,000 at the beginning of 2020 and $70,000 in receivables were written off during the year as uncollectible. In addition, $20,000 was collected from a customer whose account was written off in 2019. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined by an ageing of accounts receivable. An aging of accounts receivable at December 31, 2020, reveals the following:

Age Group 0-60 days 61-90 days 91-120 days Over 120 days

Required:
