Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

The price of Kate's breakfast special is $5.

The average variable cost is $3.95.

The average fixed cost is $1.25.

The average total cost

= $3.95 + $1.25

= $5.20

The price is not covering the average total cost but it is covering the average variable cost. The firm can continue operating in the short run but stop production in the long run.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Decrease in the interest rate

Explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

let me use an example to illustrate

the present value of $100 in year 0 discounted at 6% = $100

the present value of $100 one year from now discounted at 6% = $94.33

the present value of $100 two years from now discounted at 6% = $89

We can see that present value decreases with an increase in time

2. the present value of $100 one year from now discounted at 6% = $94.33

the present value of $90 one year from now discounted at 6% = $84.91

We can see that present value decreases with a decrease in the future value.

3.  the present value of $100 one year from now discounted at 6% = $94.33

the present value of $100 one year from now discounted at 5% = $95.24

We can see that the lower the discount rate, the higher the present value
