Answer:higher real interest rate discourages current consumption and higher real interest rate encourages more saving.
Explanation:The supply curve is a graphic representation of the correlation between the cost of a good or service and the quantity supplied for a given period. In a typical illustration, the price will appear on the left vertical axis, while the quantity supplied will appear on the horizontal axis.
Our measure of credit demand is an indicator variable for a firm's need for bank loans decreasing during the period. We measure credit supply using information on whether a firm's loan application was rejected, or the firm received less than 75% of its desired amount.
Credit supply curve is a curve that plots the quantity of credit supplied at different real interest rates.
Answer:
Equal to
Explanation:
Financial theory assumes that financial markets are efficient and that there is no information failure in conducting financial transactions. However, this is an assumption and there could, in some instances, be asymmetric information in the form of adverse selection and moral hazards. For example, if managers of a corporation know how well or how poorly their business is doing than stockholders (as organizational performance determines the price of a security), then there would be an information failure or informational inefficency. Also, a potential investor who cannot distinguish between a firm whose security has a high potential for profit and low risks compared to that with a low potential for profit and high risk will be willing to pay a price that lies between the value of stock from bad firms and the value of stock from good firms. This will not augur well for good firms as their stock is underpriced and they will be reluctant to sell.
When the financial market is efficient, investors of stock would be able to earn supernormal returns on their investments. It is therefore neccessary that the price of a corporation's common stock should be equal to the present value estimate of the firm's expected cash flows discounted by it appropriate rate of return.
Answer:
Reward to risk ratio = (Expected return - Risk free rate) / Beta
Reward to risk ratio of Y = ( 0.145 - 0.056) / 1.2
Reward to risk ratio of Y = 0.089 / 1.2
Reward to risk ratio of Y = 0.0741666
Reward to risk ratio of Y = 7.42%
Reward to risk ratio of Z = (0.093 - 0.056) / 0.7
Reward to risk ratio of Z = 0.037 / 0.7
Reward to risk ratio of Z = 0.0528571
Reward to risk ratio of Z = 5.29%
Security market line (SML) reward-to-risk ratio is the market risk premium itself which is 6.6%.
Stock Y has a reward-to-risk ratio that is higher than the market risk premium, it is currently under-valued in the market. Similarly, since stock Z has a reward-to-risk ratio that is lower than the market risk premium, it is currently over-valued in the market.
Answer:
![STC = 20K + 25L = 20*5 + 25*[\frac{Q^2}{25}] = 100 + Q^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20STC%20%3D%2020K%20%2B%2025L%20%3D%2020%2A5%20%2B%2025%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7BQ%5E2%7D%7B25%7D%5D%20%3D%20100%20%2B%20Q%5E2%20)
Explanation:
We are given:
K units of capital and L units of labor.
•Each unit of capital cost = 20
• Each unit of labor cost =25
• Level K is fixed at 5 units
We are told production function Q = K√L
Using the production functions and the values given, we can get that Q=5√L.
To find Q, the amount of labor will be given as:
Therefore, the Short run total cost function (STC) will be:
![20K + 25L = 20*5 + 25[\frac{Q^2}{25}] = 100 + Q^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%2020K%20%2B%2025L%20%3D%2020%2A5%20%2B%2025%5B%5Cfrac%7BQ%5E2%7D%7B25%7D%5D%20%3D%20100%20%2B%20Q%5E2%20)
Answer: Cash in advance
Explanation: Cash in advance is a type of payment that is used in some trade agreements.
This method of payment will require a buyer to pay the seller in cash before a shipment is received and sometimes before a shipment is even made.
Cash in advance is a strategic form of payment that can be used in any transaction in where there is a delay between the sales agreement and the sales delivery.
In the scenario given in the question, we can see that the German company has already placed an order, but the company has also caused a delay in the transaction by requesting for extra modifications.
This will prompt EastSide Tractors to feel the need to safeguard their interests in case the German company should default. This is why a Cash in advance payment system will come into play.
