liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

c. $125.00

Explanation:

Let us assume the x for invested in portfolio

Invested proportion × expected return of the optimal portfolio + (1 - invested proportion) × risk free rate = expected return

x × 7% + (1 - x) × 3% = 8%

7% x + 3% - 3% x = 8%

4% x = 5%

X = 1.25

Now the invested amount would be

= 1.25 × $500

= $625

So, the borrowed amount would be

= $625 - $500

= $125

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A. wastefulness - production inside PPC ; B. Economy growth - PPC shift outwards/rightwards ; C. Economy at Productive Efficiency - production on PPC ; D. Unattainable Production- Outside PPC

Explanation:

PPC is graphical representation of production combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

PPC is based on assumption : That resources are best efficiently utilised. So, all product combinations ON PPC reflect 'Economy is at Productive Efficiency'

All production points INSIDE PPC reflect inefficient utilisation of resources i.e 'Wastage'

Points OUTSIDE PPC are 'Unattainable Product Combinations'- as they are beyond economy's best optimum production, given resources & technology.

'Economic growth' is increase in resources &/or technology which increases economy's production potential and PPC curve SHIFTS rightwards or outwards.
