1. Unions have been in decline since the 1960s because of
Answer: <u>A. foreign competition.</u>
Explanation: Unions were often conducted in the past in order to protect workers from<em> "arbitrary decisions" </em>of employers. Such decisions resulted to the<em> laying off of workers </em>and<em> cutting of wages</em>. On the contrary, business owners have a different goal. They wanted to make more profit by cutting the wages, so they didn't like the unions. However, unions have been in decline in the 1960s, mainly because of international/foreign competitions. This is because the "bargaining power of the unions as they represent the employees were reduced."

Answer: 0.9
Explanation:
The Expected Return on an investment can be calculated using the Dividend Discount Model as it is a key component in thw formula which is,
P = D1 / r - g
where,
D1 is the dividend paid next year
P is the current stock price
g is the growth rate
r is the expected return
With the given figures we have,
84 = 4.20 / r - 0.08
84 ( r - 0.08) = 4.20
r - 0.08 = 4.20/84
r = 4.20/84 + 0.08
r = 0.13
The Expected Return can be slotted into the CAPM formula to find the beta.
The CAPM formula calculates the Expected Return in the following manner,
Er = Rf + b( Rm - rF)
Where,
Er is expected return
Rf is the risk free rate
Rm is the market return
b is beta
Slotting in the figures gives,
0.13 = 0.04 + b( 0.14 - 0.04)
0.13 = 0.04 + b (0.1)
0.13 - 0.04 = 0.1b
b = 0.09/0.1
b = 0.9
Using the constant-growth DDM and the CAPM, the beta of the stock is 0.9
