Answer:
a: 12.8%
Explanation:
Standard Deviation would be calculated with the probability approach since there is probability given in the question.
- Formula of Standard Deviation and the solution is given in the pictures below.
- Although ERR the required part to calculate Standard Deviation is calculated in the text.
Calculating ERR:
ERR= Sum of Probabilities × Rate of returns.
In our question = ERR= 0.2 × 30% + 0.5 × 10% + 0.3 × (-6%) = 0.128 = 12.8%
Thus, by putting all the values in the formula you will get the answer 12.8%.

The answer is explained in detail below
Explanation:



Labor, L = 2000; Capital, K = 3000
Labour constraint,
Capital constraint ,
Solving the equation further, we get


- The range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food is 2/3 and 2
- Low cloth production → economy will use relatively more labor to produce cloth → opportunity cost of cloth is 2/3rd units of food.
- High cloth production → economy dips on labor → taking capital away from food production → raising opportunity cost of cloth to 2 units of food.
- If relative price of cloth lies between 2/3 and 2 units of food, the economy produces both goods.
- If the price of cloth decreases below 2/3 → complete specialization in food production → low compensation for producing cloth
- If the price of cloth rises above 2 → complete specialization in cloth production → low compensation for producing food
Answer: (a) Fall
(b) Increase
(c) Increase
(d) Unchanged
Explanation:
Suppose there is a competitive market with a downward sloping demand curve and horizontal supply curve. In a competitive market there are large number of buyers and sellers. So, if there is a downward shift in the supply curve, as a result equilibrium price will fall, equilibrium quantity will increase, consumer surplus now become larger and producer surplus remains the same because of the horizontal supply curve.
