In a perfectly competitive market, every seller takes the price of its product as set by market conditions.

<h3>What is a Perfect Competitive Market?</h3>

Perfect competition is an ideal type of market structure where all producers and consumers have full and symmetric information and no transaction costs. There are a large number of producers and consumers competing with one another in this kind of environment.

Perfect competition is a market structure where many firms offer a homogeneous product. Because there is freedom of entry and exit and perfect information, firms will make normal profits and prices will be kept low by competitive pressures.

<h3>What are some examples of Perfectly Competitive Markets?</h3>

3 Perfect Competition Examples

  1. Agriculture: In this market, products are very similar. Carrots, potatoes, and grain are all generic, with many farmers producing them.
  2. Foreign Exchange Markets: In this market, traders exchange currencies.
  3. Online shopping: We may not see the internet as a distinct market.

Thus, we can say that the correct option is B.

Indirect cost (40000/10000)  <u>$4 </u>                        <u>$4 </u>              <u>$4</u>

Wayco Industrial Supply has a pretax cost of debt of 7.6 percent, a cost of equity of 16.8 percent, and a cost of preferred stoc
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

14.88%

Explanation:

Market value of common stock outstanding = 220,000 * $27 = $5,940,000

Market value of preferred stock = 25,000 * $41 = $1,025,000

Market value of bond = $550,000 * 101.2% = $556,600  

Wayco's total financing market value = $5,940,000 + $1,025,000 + $556,600 = $7,521,600

Weighted average cost of capital = [($5,940,000 / $7,521,600) * 16.8%] + [($1,025,000 / $7,521,600) * 9.1%] + [($556,600 / $7,521,600) * 7.6% * (1 - 34%)] = 0.1488, or 14.88%

Liz Mulig earns 52,000 per year as a philosophy professor. She receives a raise of 2.5% in a year in which CPI increases by 3.8%
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

She lost $754.05.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Liz Mulig earns 52,000 per year as a philosophy professor. She receives a raise of 2.5% in a year in which CPI increases by 3.8%.

<u>The rise in her salary allows her to increase her purchasing power. On the contrary, inflation decreases purchasing power. We need to calculate the differences between both effects and determine whether she can buy more or less.</u>

<u></u>

Increase in salary= 52,000*1.025= $53,300

Inflation effect= 52,000/(1-0.038)= $54,054.05

To maintain her purchasing power, now, she needs to earn $54,054.05.

She lost $754.05.
