Answer:
a. 2.20
Explanation:
The computation of the price elasticity of supply is shown below;
Here,
P1 = $1 Q1 = 100
P2 = $1.20 Q2 = 150
We know that
Price elasticity = percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price
where
Percentage change in quantity supplied = (Q2-Q1)÷(Q2+Q1) ÷ 2)×100
= (150-100) ÷(150+100) ÷ 2)×100
= 40
And,
Percentage change in price is
= (P2-P1) ÷ (P2+P1) ÷ 2)×100
= ($1.20 - $1) ÷ ($1.20 + $1) ÷ 2)×100
= 18.1818
So, price elasticity of supply is
= 40 ÷ 18.1818
= 2.20

C) higher; higher
D) lower; higher
The correct answer is: A) higher; lower.
Explanation:
The price of a bond can be above or below its parity for many reasons, including interest rate adjustments, if the credit rating of the bond has changed, supply and demand, a change in the creditworthiness of the bond issuer , if the bond has been redeemed or if it is likely to be (or not) redeemed, a change in prevailing market interest rates, and an endless number of other factors.
As with other financial assets, bond prices are determined by supply and demand. Each government sets the supply of state bonds, issuing more if necessary. Demand, on the other hand, depends on whether or not it is an interesting investment.
Interest rates can have a major impact on bond demand. If interest rates are lower than the coupon on a bond, the demand for that bond will increase - it represents a better investment. But if interest rates rise above the coupon percentage, demand will drop.
Some bonds are actively traded, while others may have no activity (there are neither buyers nor sellers interested) for weeks. As a general category, municipal bonds tend to be more sensitive to supply and demand forces than other fixed income categories. This has the net effect of increasing your market risk: If your bond is not popular with other investors at a time when you need to sell, the price you will get for the bond in the secondary market will be hit.
Yeah the answer is D) $80 bc it will take about 23 months, while the rest takes more.
