(LG 5.3) Fantastic Footwear can invest in one of two different automated clicker cutters. The first, A, has a $100 000 first cost. A similar one with many extra features, B has a $400 000 first cost. A will save $50 000 per year over the cutter currently in use. B will save $150 000 per year. Each clicker cutter will last five years. If the MARR is 10 percent, which alternative is better? Use an IRR comparison.

Each term (3 months) the current group of economics students completed a questionnaire as to how much they would spend on new purchases compared to how much they would save/pay off bills, if they suddenly and unexpectedly received a check for $1,000. The average MPC is shown in the table below. Month in which student poll was taken Average of students’ responses as MPC March 0.41 June 0.30 September 0.22 December 0.56 What do these MPC’s imply about the students’ thinking over the course of the year? (Enter response here.) What is likely happening in the economy during the same period of time?
Select 3 courses from a list of 7. How many different courses can be selected? Group of answer choices 7*6*5 = 210 (7*6*5)/3 = 70 (7*6*5)/(3*2*1) = 35 3*7 = 21 7*6 = 42
Is there any graph that can support this answer?
This question is intended to have a written response given. The writtenresponse should be 2-3 paragraphs maximum and focused on answer the specific questions of interest using the tools/concepts from lecture/tutorials. You may include agraph to support your argument/ideas, but this is not required (note: I would recommend you sketch a graph when thinking about how to answer this question, thoughthat does not need to be submitted). Leung and Seo wrote an article “How do government transfer payments affect retail prices and welfare? Evidence from SNAP” (Jan,2023) in the Journal of Public Economics. To answer this question, you do not need togo read the paper. I would in fact recommend against it as the paper is very technicaland assumes a knowledge of statistics that most students taking Econ 201 will nothave (some of the ideas will be discussed in Econ 233 and Econ 333). We will use theinformation/main ideas as a starting framework.In the United States, one of the largest welfare…
