<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>
<em>c. Stay the same</em>
<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.

Answer:
$427,011.92
Explanation:
We use the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attached spreadsheet
Given that,
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7.5%
NPER = 15 years
PMT = $45,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
And, in type we write the 1 instead of 0
So, after solving this, the present value is $427,011.92
Answer:
It's best to invest in the second economy
Explanation:
The question does not provide information on the hypothetical economic expectations of the two economies, but as a risk-averse investor, it's a better idea to try to "spread" the risk instead of concentrating it.
In the first economy, conditions might or might not be good. If they are good, returns will be extraordinary because all stocks will provide good returns, but if conditions take a turn for the worse, all stocks prices will fall and the financial consequences will be catastrophic.
In the second economy, results might never be as good as in the first economy, but they also will not ever be as bad. The risk is spread between various stocks, and while some may fall in price, others will rise, and viceversa. For a risk-adverse investor, this a far better option.
