vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Quantity of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change i.e increase & decrease in demand & supply respectively.

↑Dd = ↓Sy : Qty same
↑Dd > ↓Sy : Qty ↑
↑Dd < ↓Sy : Qty ↓

Explanation:

Libya is an exporter of Oil to China. It implies china's demand for oil is satisfied by Libya's imports.

Usual markets are at equilibrium when market demand = market supply, demand & supply curves intersect.

Political unrest in Libya decreasing oil production, would decrease supply (exported) of oil to China & sift supply curve leftwards. Simultaneously, increase in China demand for oil would shift the demand curve rightwards. These changes in demand, supply would create excess demand. Excess demand would cause competition among buyers & increase the new equilibrium price.

However, <u>Quantity </u>of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change , shift in demand & supply. If increase in demand is equal to decrease in supply, the quantity would remain<u> same.</u> If increase in demand is more than decrease in supply, quantity will <u>increase</u>. If increase in demand is less than decrease in supply, the quantity will <u>decrease.</u>

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

The decision-making process followed by consumers assumes that consumers are rational beings who are trying to maximize their satisfaction using their limited income.

So these consumers will consume the good or combination of goods that maximize their total utility derived from the consumption of these goods.

The consumers have limited income, they are aware of the marginal utility they derive from the consumption of an additional unit and they are also able to rank their preferences.

The Sisyphean Company has a bond outstanding with a face value of $ 5 comma 000 $5,000 that reaches maturity in 5 5 years. The b

lilavasa [31]

Answer: $5,219.59905

the price that the bond traded for would be closest to

$5,220 (rounded to whole number)

Explanation:

Using the price of bond formula below:

Price = C × 1 - [(1+r)^-n] /r + F/ (1+r)^n

C = coupon rate = 9.1% of face values ($5,000)

F= Face value(par value) = $5,000

n = number of years to maturity; 5

r = YTM (yield to maturity) = 8% = 0.08

Price = 455 × 1 - [(1+0.08)^-5]/0.08 + 5,000/(1+0.08)^5

Price = 455 × 1 - [(1.08)^-5]/0.08 + 5,000/(1.08)^5

Price= 455 × ( 1 - 0.680583197)/0.08 + 5,000 / 1.46932808

Price= 455 × (0.319416803)/0.08 + 3,402.91598

Price = 1,816.68307 + 3,402.91598

Price= $5,219.59905

≈$5,220 to the nearest whole number.

If the Fed announces that it will decrease U.S. interest rates, and the European Central Bank takes no action, then the value

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

c. appreciate

Explanation:

If the Federal Reserve reduces the interest rate of the US dollar this will lead to lower cost of funds, more people will borrow money and this increases money supplied to the economy.

Excess money will pursue less goods leading to inflation where the purchasing power of the US dollar will reduce.

All things being equal the value of the euro will appreciate against the US dollar if interest rate is decreased.

As the euro strengths against the US dollar, one will need less euros to purchase the weakened dollar.
