Answer:

Market segmentation theorists would argue that the upward slope is due to the fact that under current economic conditions there is greater demand for​ long-term loans for items such as real estate than for​ short-term loans for seasonal needs.

Correct option A

Explanation:

Market segmentation theory is based on the belief that the market for each segment of bond maturities consists mainly of investors who have a preference for investing in securities with specific durations: short, intermediate, or long-term.

Market segmentation theory asserts that the buyers and sellers who make up the market for short-term securities have different characteristics and motivations than buyers and sellers of intermediate and long-term maturity securities.

Followers of the market segmentation theory would say that the slope upward is evidence that the market has a greater demand for long term loans as opposed to short term loans.

Answer: The answer is A

Explanation:

The market segmentation theory states that there is no relationship whatsoever between the long term interest rate and the short term interest rate in the financial market .In the sense that ,the long term loan or bond are secured from capital market while short term loan can be secured from the money market. As a result of these the interest rate of one does not have effect on the other one. Another fact of the issue is that the investors in the market are not the same.

The yield curve is a line which shows the relationship between interest rate on a loan or bond and the time for such loan or bond to reach their maturity. Therefore, the upward slope is due to the fact that under current economic conditions there is a greater demand for long term loans for such items such as real estate than for short term loans for seasonal needs.

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Hi the demand for each  product for this question is missing, however, i have provided step by step approach to solving the problem below .

Explanation:

First Calculate the contribution per unit of each product

                                                        A                           B                            C

Sales price                                  $65.50                $57.50                  $75.25

Less Total variable cost            ($28.85)              ($26.50)                ($38.95 )

Less Direct material cost            ($11.25)                ($8.90)                 ($22.75)

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Calculate the contribution per limiting factor of each product and rank the products

<em>contribution per limiting factor = contribution per unit ÷ quantity per limiting factor per unit</em>

                                                        A                           B                            C

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Quantity of limiting factor             4.65                      6.3                          5.9

Contribution per limiting factor   5.46                      3.51                        2.25

Ranking                                            1                           2                             3

Allocate the limiting factor according to the limiting factor

The company will on produce Product A as this is the most profitable.

Contribution =  $25.40

Wims, Inc., has current assets of $3,900, net fixed assets of $26,500, current liabilities of $3,400, and long-term debt of $7,5
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

equity = $19500

Explanation:

Given data:

current assets $3900

net fixed assets $26,500

current liabilities $3400

debt = $7500

Total liabilities = current liabilities + long term debt

                         = 3400 + 7500 = $ 10,900

Total assets = current assets + net fixed assets

                     = 3900 + 26,500 = $30,400

We know

total assets  = total liabilities + equity

30400 = 10900+ equity

equity = $19500

sladkih [1.3K]

A trade deficit occurs when the import of a country's is more than the export of the country for a given period of time period. The main cause is when there's an imbalance between the savings of a country and the investment rates.

Ricardo paid an annual premium of $1,200 in total liability coverage for his car, including up to $200,000 in bodily injury cove
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

No, the cost of the annual premium for 10 years was less than the accident claims

Explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that the annual premium is $1,200, $200,000 is the bodily injury coverage and $100,000 should be the property damage coverage

Also the $40,000 and $20,000 represent the medical cost and the car damage

So here the cost should not outweight the benefit of the transferring the risk as the annual premium cost for ten years should be lower than the accident claims
