Answer:

- Higher demand for paper, less wood for bats, the higher price of bats, OR less supply of bats.(have to pay a higher price for wood, and if price doesn't change, they have to make less).

- Higher demand for cheese, cows kept alive, leather is scarce, the higher price of mitts. (less supply because more of the resource is allocated to the milk instead of the leather).

Explanation:

The baseball bats, as well as, paper both, are made employing the resources generated from wood resources. Similarly, the catcher's mitts and cheese are made using the cows as the resource. If two products are made employing similar resources, an increase in the price of one leads to an increase in the other as well. This occurs primarily due to the fact that if the price of the first good increases, the producer of that good is likely to pay more to get the resource and sell the good at a higher price later. Thus, the other producer will either buy less and produce less or spend more to get the resource as per his need.

laiz [17]

Answer:

Statement A

Explanation:

The 2 statements are:

A: The firm Delta Insurers typically affirms claims within 120 days after it receives proof of loss statements

B: The firm Delta Insurers typically denies claims within 120 days after it receives proof of loss statements

- In this case, it takes 120 days to verify, process and then agree (affirm) to release funds (claims) to the affected customer.

So the answer is Statement A.

You purchased 340 shares of a particular stock at the beginning of the year at a price of $77.03. The stock paid a dividend of $

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Return on the investment = 10.8%

Explanation:

The return on a stock is the sum of the capital gains(loss) plus the dividends earned.

Capital gain is the difference between he value of the stocks when sold and the cost of the shares when purchased.

Total shareholders Return =

(Capital gain/ loss + dividend )/purchase price × 100

So we can apply this to the formula:

Dividend = 1.8 × 340= $612

Capital gain = (83.54-77.03)× 340 =$ 2213.4

Cost of shares = 340 × 77.03= $26,190.2

% return = (612 + 2213.4)/ 26,190.2 × 100

= 10.8%
