Answer:
(a) $0 (b) 0% (c) 50% (d) -40% (e) 0.444 and 0.556 (f) -0.05
Explanation:
(a) Profit (in $) = (increase in price per share of Harley-Davidson * number of Harley-Davidson shares held) - (decrease in price per share of Yahoo * number of Yahoo shares held)
= $90 - $60 = $30 increase in Harley Davidson and $25 - $15 =$10 decrease in Yahoo
= ($30*100) - ($10*300) = $0
(b) return on portfolio = return/capital invested * 100 = $0/($60 * 100 + $25 * 300) = $0/$13500 = 0%
(c) return on investment in Harley = return/capital invested in Harley * 100 = $30*100/$60*1000 = $3000/$6000 = 50%
(d) return on investment in Yahoo = return/capital invested in Yahoo * 100 = -$10*300/$25*300 = -$3000/$7500 = - 40% (negative rate of return)
(e) Weighting at the beginning of year (in decimals)
Harley Davidson = $60 * 100 units/ total invested ($60 * 100 + $25 * 300)
= $6000/$13500 = 0.444
Yahoo = $25 * 300 units/ total invested
= $7500/$13500 = 0.556
(f) realized returns (as a decimal) of the portfolio = 0.444*50% + 0.556*-40%
= -0.0493728
= - 0.05 (to decimal places)
Answer:
The value of price will be exactly what demand is willing to pay, without possibility of change.
Explanation:
We call that a perfectly elastic demand. When we have that kind of price elasticity, any change in price upwards will affect the demand, making it fall to almost zero. On the opposite, if we have a change in price downwards, the demand will not increase. Bread, books, and pencils are good examples of that.
1) <span>A supply shock is a sudden increase in the price of an important natural resource, resulting in a leftward shift of the sras curve. Because the change is so sudden it really affects the equilibrium price of the good or service within the economy.
2) S</span><span>tagflation is a combination of inflation and recession. Stagflation typically occurs because of supply shock.
3) S</span><span>tagflation occurs when a supply shock shifts the sras to the left, increasing the price level and decreasing actual GDP. </span>
