Answer: Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated
Explanation:
When there is a decrease in demand in a Perfectly Competitive Market, firms will have to start producing at a lower Quantity to manage their Marginal cost. This leads to Economic losses on their part in the short run.
In the long run however, should the situation remain the same, the new price would be less than their Average Cost which would deepen Economic losses. Firms would respond by exiting the market in the long run.
As the firms exit, the supply curve shifts left as supply drops. This drop in supply leads to a price rise. The exits will continue until enough firms leave that the market's remaining firms will stop suffering economic losses.
Jan. 1, 2013:
Initial investment = (100 shares)*($30/share) = $3,000.
End of 2013:
Dividend collected = ($2/share)*(100 shares) = $200
End of 2014:
Dividend collected = ($3/share)*(100 shares) = $300
End of 2015:
Dividend collected = ($4/share)*(100 shares) = $400
Returns::
From sales of 100 shares = ($33/share)*(100 shares) = $3,300
From dividends = 200 + 300 + 400 = $900
Total returns = 3,300 + 900 = $4,200
Realized returns = Total returns - Initial inestment
= 4200 - 3000
= $1,200
Answer: $1,200
If it costs $5.10 to get $4.10 from Friendly's then the loanee would pay about 24% which is a pretty high interest rate and presumably the interest rate would decrease with a higher amount loaned as on a larger amount the actual amount of interest earned would still be significant with a lower interest rate.

Answer:
As the $3,000 is unrecaptured losses, it will be carried forward to this year and would be set off against the current year's capital gains.
Explanation:
The previous year unrecaptured loss of $3000 will carried forward and would be set off against the capital gains of $12,000. The gain for the year can be calculated as under:
Capital Gain for the year = Gain Before unrecaptured losses - Carried Forward Losses
By putting values, we have:
Capital Gain for the year = $12,000 - $3,000 = $9,000
The resultant $9,000 would be the capital gain for the year.
