Answer:
The answer is option C. She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Explanation:
She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Investors who hold onto their bonds until maturity are assured of to receive the face value of the bond. In our case, if Andrea would have chosen to hold her $5,000 bond investment for 10 years, she would have been assured the bonds face value, however since she prefers to use the cash to work abroad, she can sell the bonds immediately.
Selling a bond before it's maturity date can either be beneficial or detrimental. This depends on the value of the bond at the time of sale. If at the time of sale the bond would have gained value, then the bond will sell at a higher price than when it was bought. On the other hand, if the bond at the time of sale has lost value, then the bond will sell at a lower price than the price which it was bought.
In our case, the best option for Andrea would be to sell the bonds immediately, since she really needs the cash. If it happens that at the point at which she sells the bonds they will have gained value, then she will have more than $5,000 cash, however, if at the point she decides to sell the bonds they will have lost value, then she will have less than $5,000 depending on how much value was lost from the time she bought the bonds and the time she sold the bonds.
Answer:
The answer is: E) workers in Alzania have higher productivity due to better education and training.
Explanation:
Alzania and its neighbor both produce cotton and they both have the same amount of workers in the production of cotton. If Alzania is able to produce more cotton (or any type of product) using the same amount of resources (in this case labor) than its neighbor, we can conclude that Alzania does have an absolute advantage in that industry.
This absolute advantage exists because Alzania's workers are more productive than their neighbor's workers.
For example, lets say both countries have 5,000 cotton workers. Alzania produces 100 tons of cotton per worker, while its neighbor only produces 80 tons of cotton per worker. That means Alzania's workers are more productive, and labor usually gains productivity through education or training.
