Answer: (b) -3.08
Explanation:
The relationship between the demand(q), price per unit product(p) and the disposable income,yd is given by the expression below;
q= 20ln(7yd-2p).
From the expression above, the marginal demand,
∂ q/∂ p is the differential of the equation of relationship between the demand, price and disposable income.
This involves considering the demand,q as the dependent variable and the price per unit product,p as the independent variable and the disposable income,yd is considered constant.
Therefore ,
∂ q/∂ p= (-40)÷(7yd-2p)
By substitution of
yd =$3000÷1000= $3
and p= $4
∂ q/∂ p= (-40)÷((7×$3)-(2×$4))
∂ q/∂ p= -40÷13= 3.08
Please see the attachment for knowledge on how ∂ q/∂ p was obtained.
I guess the correct answer is $32.14
Zeta Corporation just paid a $2.00 dividend. Analysts believe that Zeta Corporation’s dividend will grow by 20% next year, and then settle into a constant growth regime at 5% per year into the future. If investors assign a required rate of return of 12% to Zeta’s stock, the stock sell for today is $32.14.
Answer:the quantities of some factors of production are fixed; the quantities of all factors of production can be varied - D
Explanation:
In the short run, some factors of production are fixed, which is usually the capital. Therefore for a company to increase output, it would need employ more workers, but would not increase capital.
Therefore in the short run, we can get diminishing marginal returns, which may cause marginal costs to start increasing quickly.
Also, in the short run, prices and wages fall out of equilibrium because a sudden rise in demand may lead to higher prices, and companies may not have the the capacity to respond and increase supply.
Long run
In the long run, usually greater than 6 months, all main factors of production are variable. The company has time to build a bigger one making it respond to changes in demand which means that a sudden rise in demand, would have a complimentary increase in supply to meet the demands and prices can be adjusted.

Answer:
(d) debt; opposite direction
Explanation:
Bonds or debentures represent fixed interest bearing instruments issued by corporates to raise long term funds i.e usually greater than 1 year repayable after a fixed duration.
Bonds could be of various forms such as zero coupon bonds, deep discount bonds, face value bonds etc
The common aspect of all being bonds represent debt which a corporation owes which must be repaid after a fixed duration. Also bonds demand periodic interest payments i.e fixed obligation which cannot be refused by the issuer company.
There is an inverse relationship between bond prices and market interest rates.
Reason : This is because if a higher interest rate prevails in the market than the coupon rate offered by the issuer, the issuer will have to reduce the price of it's bonds so as to make them attractive else investors would rather invest in other bonds in the market offering a higher rate of return.
