Suppose that hubert, an economist from an am talk radio program, and kate, an economist from a nonprofit organization on the west coast, are arguing over government bailouts. the following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate: kate: to recent financial crises, the concept of bailouts is a hot topic for debate among everyone these days. hubert: indeed, it’s gotten crazy! a government bailout of severely distressed financial firms is unnecessary because free markets will properly price assets. kate: i don’t know about that. without a bailout of severely distressed financial firms, the economy will experience a deep recession. the disagreement between these economists is most likely due todifferences in scientific judgments . despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree? business managers can raise profit more easily by reducing costs than by raising revenue. central banks should focus more on maintaining low unemployment than on maintaining low inflation. employers should not be restricted from outsourcing work to foreign nations

When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount s present at time t, that is, ds/dt = rs, where r is the annual rate of interest. (a) find the amount of money accrued at the end of 3 years when $4000 is deposited in a savings account drawing 5 3 4 % annual interest compounded continuously. (round your answer to the nearest cent.) $ (b) in how many years will the initial sum deposited have doubled? (round your answer to the nearest year.) years (c) use a calculator to compare the amount obtained in part (a) with the amount s = 4000 1 + 1 4 (0.0575) 3(4) that is accrued when interest is compounded quarterly. (round your answer to the nearest cent.) s = $
