Answer:

c. firms are free to enter and exit the market.

Explanation:

A monopolistically competitive market is a market in which there are a lot of organizations that sell products that are similar and it tends to be easy to enter and leave the industry. Because it is easy for a company to enter the market and there is a lot of competition, in the long run the economic profit is zero. According to this, the answer is that in the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because firms are free to enter and exit the market.

The other options are not right because a monopolistically competitive market has zero profits because of its low entry barriers and amount of competitors not because of government regulations or an illegal agreement between organizations to control competition. Also, in a monopolistically competitive market the products are similar.

Darya [45]

Answer:

1. 1,000 bushels of wheat

2.  d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other

Explanation:

1 & 2. Autarky refers to a situation where a country does not engage in trade with other countries but rather relies on its own production capacities to feed the consumption in the country.

Autarkies in the current world are not a thing because countries trade with each other. Even North Korea trades with Russia, China and others.

In an Autarky situation therefore, the United States would only be able to consume the wheat that it produces itself which according to the question is 1,000 bushels of wheat.

Mobray Corp. is experiencing rapid growth. Dividends are expected to grow at 32 percent per year during the next three years, 22
KatRina [158]

Answer:

$1.3794

Explanation:

The computation of the projected dividend for the coming year is shown below:

Last year dividend paid = Do

Expected Dividend in Year 1 (D1) = Do ( 1+g) = Do × 1.32

Dividend in Year 2 (D2) = Do ( 1+g)^2  = Do × 1.32^2

Dividend in Year 3 (D3) =  Do ( 1+g)^3 = Do × 1.32^3

Dividend in year 4 , (D4) = D3 ×  (1+g) = Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22

Now the price at year 4 is

P4 = D4 × (1+g) ÷ ( R-g )

= Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22 × (1 + 0.07 ) ÷ ( 0.10 - 0.07 )

= Do × 100.08

Use Gordon Growth Model

The Current Price of Stock is

= D1 ÷ ( 1+ R)^1 +D2 ÷ ( 1+ R)^2 + D3 ÷ ( 1+ R)^3 + D4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4 + P4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4

$78  = Do ( 1.32 ÷ 1.1 + 1.32^2 ÷ 1.1 ^2 + 1.32^3 ÷ 1.1^3 +1.32^3 × 1.22 ÷ 1.1^4 + 100 .08 ÷ 1.1^4)  

$78 = Do ( 1.2 +1.44 + 1.728 + 1.9165 + 68.36 )

Do = $1.045

Now

Projected Dividend for Year 1 is

= Do × 1.32

= $1.045 × 1.32

= $1.3794

A company purchased $1,800 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 2/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $200 worth of merchandise. On
pychu [463]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The amount of cash paid on July 8 is computed as:

Amount of goods worth = Purchased amount - Returned goods worth  Amount of goods worth = $1,800 - $200

Amount of goods worth  = $1,600

As the amount is paid within the terms of 10 days, so the amount is eligible for the discount of 2%, it is as:

Amount to be paid in cash = Amounts of goods worth - ( Amounts of goods worth × Discount)

where

Amounts of goods worth is $1,600

Discount is of 2%

Putting the values above:

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,600 - ($1,600 × 2%)

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,600 - 32

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,568
