Answer:

A) Competing firms working together to fix prices and output.

B) Collusion.

C) Illegal

Explanation:

A cartel is when a group of competing producers of a good collude together for their own economic good and benefits. They generally form oligopolistic market structures with coordination and thus can take decision on restricting production of a articular good and influencing prices for their own good.

A collusion thus helps a hand full of companies to dominate the market of a particular product that they all produce. They can even form artificial barriers to entry for new firms as they control all or most of the relevant market forces.

In USA cartels are illegal as per the provision of anti-trust laws.

Hope that helps.

If the company were to issue an annual zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 2 years and par value of $1,000, what would be the ar
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Note: <em>The complete question is attached as picture below</em>

1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.

PV * (1 + S1) = FV

1 + S1 = 1000 / 900

S1 = 1.1111 - 1

S1 = 0.1111  

S1 = 11.11%

1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950

Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50

950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2

950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2

1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905

(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905

1 + S2 = 1.160221/2

S2 = 7.714%

1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586

Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92

The current value of a property is $60,000. For real estate tax purposes, the property is assessed at 30 percent of its current
Damm [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Current value, C = $60000

Assessed value, A = 30 percent of its current value

= 30% × C

Equalisation factor, E = 1.25

The tax rate is $4 per $100 of assessed valuation.

Assessed value, A = 30/100 × 60000

= $18000

Total assessed valuation = assessed value × E

= $18000 × 1.25

= $22500

Tax rate of $4/$100 × assessed valuation

Tax amount = tax rate × assessed valuation

= ($4 × $22500)/$100

= $900
