kramer

Answer:

(b) a loss of $750

Explanation:

Given;

Amount of spice mixture to be purchased = 1500 pounds

Price of spice mixture in 2014 = $5.00 per pound

Changed price of sugar mixture = $4.50 per pound

Now,

The amount to be received on the day of contract in 2014

= Amount of spice mixture to be purchased × Price of spice mixture in 2014

= 1500 × $5.00

= $7,500

and,

The amount to be received in 2015

= Amount of spice mixture to be purchased × Price of spice mixture in 2015

= 1500 × $4.50

= $6,750

The difference in Expected amount and the amount to be received

= $7500 - $6750

= $750

Since the amount to be received is less than the expected amount on the day of contract

Therefore,

a loss will be recognized

Hence,

the correct answer is option (b) a loss of $750

A stock's dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% a year, which of the following statements is CORRECT? The stock
Llana [10]

Answer:

a. The stock's price one year from now is expected to be 5% above the current price.

Explanation:

Under gordon model:

\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value

If we calculate the value of the stock for the year after that:

\frac{divends x (1 + growth)}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value

to calculate the value of the increase we divide next year over current year.

\frac{divends(1+growth)}{return-growth} \div \frac{divends}{return-growth}\\\\\frac{divends(1+growth)}{return-growth} \times\frac{return-growth}{divends}\\\\\frac{divends(1+growth)}{divends}= 1+ growth

We have demostrate that next year stock should increase by 1 + growth so statement c is correct.

Which of the following statements is true?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

A monopoly is a market structure where there is a single firm in the market with no close substitutes. The firm is a price maker. There is high barriers to entry in the market.

Similar to monopoly other imperfect competition such as monopolistic competition and oligopoly also have barriers to entry, and are price makers. But the firms in such markets have different  demand curve than the market demand curve.

But in a monopoly there is only single firm, so the market demand curve is the same as  individual firm's demand curve.
