1) u. s. real gdp is substantially higher today than it was 60 years ago. what does this tell us, and what does it not tell us, about the well-being of u. s. residents? what are the limitations of the gdp as a measure of economic well-being? given the limitations, why is gdp usually regarded as the best single measure of a society’s economic well-being? 2) what is an intermediate good? how does an intermediate good differ from a final good? explain why it is the case that the value of intermediate goods produced and sold during the year is not included directly as part of gdp, but the value of intermediate goods produced and not sold is included directly as part of gdp.

Shrieves casting company is considering adding a new line to its product mix, and the capital budgeting analysis is being conducted by sidney johnson, a recently graduated mba. the production line would be set up in unused space in the main plant. the machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional $30,000 to install the equipment. the machinery has an economic life of 4 years, and shrieves has obtained a special tax ruling that places the equipment in the macrs 3-year class. the machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of use. the new line would generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding depreciation. each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. the sales price and cost are both expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation. further, to handle the new line, the firm’s net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales revenues. the firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of capital, which is the risk-adjusted cost of capital for an average project (r), is 10%. define “incremental cash flow.” (1) should you subtract interest expense or dividends when calculating project cash flow?
