Answer:
D) a rise in price
Explanation:
At the equilibrium point, the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied are the same. There is no excess shortage or supply in both demand and supply.
A shortage occurs when suppliers are not able to meet the market demand. Here, demand is the quantity that buyers are willing to buys at a specific price over time. As per the law of demand, high product price causes demand to decrease while low price results in increased demand.
A shortage of a product means its demand is high. Many buyers are willing to buy the commodity at the current price. As per the law of demand, a price increase will result in reduced demand and achieve equilibrium.
Answer:
$24.18
Explanation:
Dividend for year 0 = $2.2
Dividend at year end 1 = $2.2
Dividend at year end 2 = $2.2(1 + .05) = 2.31
Dividend at year end 3 = $2.31 (1 + .05) = 2.4255
Dividend at year end 4 = $2.4255 (1 + .17)= 2.8378
Dividend at year end 5 = $2.8375 (1 + .09)= 3.0932
Dividend at year end 6 = $3.0932 (1 + .09) = 3.371

where MPS = Market price of share
D= Dividend for different years
k = Cost of equity
g= constant growth rate after year 5
putting values in above equation we get,
MPS = 1.864 + 1.65 + 1.478 + 1.463 + 1.352 + 0.4371 × 37.462
MPS = $24.18

Answer:
A. 56.32 days
B. 40.38 days
Explanation:
The Operating cycle is the Inventory period + AR period
Inventory period= 365/(Cost of goods sold/Average inventory)
Average inventory= (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory)/2
Accounts Receivable period= 365/(Credit Sales/Average Accounts Receivable )
Average Accounts Receivable= (Beginning Accounts Receivable + Ending Inventory Accounts Receivable)/2
Calculated Inventory period= 42.58 days
Calculated Accounts Receivable period= 13.74 days
The Cash cycle is also called the Net Operating cycle which is the Inventory period + Accounts Receivable period- Accounts Payable period
Accounts Payable period= 365/(Cost of goods sold/Average Accounts Payable)
Average Accounts Payable = (Beginning Accounts Payables + Ending Inventory Accounts Payable)/2
Calculated Accounts Payable period= 15.94 days
Answer:
1. Neither ; 2. Consumer Surplus ; 3. Producer Surplus
Explanation:
Consumer Surplus is the difference between a good's price paid by consumer, & maximum price the consumer is willing to pay for the good.
Producer Surplus is the difference between a good's price received by a seller, & minimum price at which the seller is willing to sell the good.
1. Willing to pay $209 for watch, buyer willing to sell at $196, no trade as price ceiling at $190 : It illustrates neither concept as transaction has not actually occurred, so no price established.
2. Willing to pay $39 for sweater, purchased it for $32 : It illustrates 'Consumer Surplus' case = $7 , as it shows difference between maximum willingness to pay by buyer ($39) & the actual buy price ($32)
3. Willing to sell laptop at $190, sold it at $199 : It illustrates 'Producer Surplus' case = $9 , as it shows difference between minimum willingness to sell price ($190) & actual sale price ($199)
