Answer:

b) 156

Total utility of other four products = Total utility - utility of fifth product

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) since MR=MC, then 15-2Q=3+Q. So, the monopolist produce Q=4

price P=15-Q=10-4=6

profit=6*3-TC=18-(3+4+0.5*4^2)=3

b)since the P=6=6, domestic production will stay the same. The domestic consumption will stay the same. For Wilknam, it will import soccer balls.

c)yes, it holds that Wiknam will be an importer. Because the price for domestic production is 6 which is same as the world price 6.

d)Since the price within country is the same with price out of country, and also, MC=3+Q=7>6, Wiknam will import soccer balls. The monopolist market will become a competitive market.Even though the price won't change,the product will be of high quality and so on. The market will become more equilibrium.

A security will make payments of $25 per month for the next 5 years, plus $1000 at maturity. Which of the following is true? Gro
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: If the price increases from $1,500 to $1,600 then the yield to maturity will decrease.

Explanation:

If Yields in the market fell, Bonds would still be making the same coupon payments they always have been regardless of this fall. This will lead investors to buy more bonds which will have the effect of raising bond prices.

This therefore shows that Bond prices and Yields are inversely related. If one rises, the other falls. If the price of the security (bond) increases from $1,500 to $1,600 then it follows that the yield to maturity will decrease.

How much more is a perpetuity of $1,000 worth than an annuity of the same amount for 20 years? Assume an interest rate of 10% an
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The perpetuity is worth $1486.43 more than the ordinary annuity

Explanation:

A perpetuity that with an annual cash inflow or cash outflow payable for a foreseeable future - for an infinite number of period

The present value of a perpetual annuity is calculated as

PV= A/r

PV = 1000/0.1

PV =&10,000

On the other hand, an annuity with  annual cash inflows or cash outflows for certain number of years is called an ordinary annuity.

The present value of an ordinary annuity is determined as follows:

PV = (1 - (1+r)^n)/r   × A

     = (1-(1+0.1)^(-20))/0.1 × 1000

    = 8.5135  × 1000

   = 8513.56

Difference in PV =  10,000 - 8513.56

                            = $1486.43

The perpetuity is worth $ 1,486.43 more than the ordinary annuity
