Simora [160]

6.29% is the rate of growth

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>The following formula is used </u>

Price = D1 / ke -g

39.86 = 1.2 multiply with (1 + g) / 0.095 - g

3.7867 – 39.86 g = 1.2 + 1.2 g

2.5867 = 41.06 g

Now, we have to calculate the value of g  

g = 2.5867 divide 41.06

= 0.0629  

= 6.29 %

Where:

G = growth, ke = market rate of return, D1 = dividend ( annual), P = price of the share of company

An economist would be more likely to argue against reducing inflation if she thought that a. the central bank lacked credibility
Fantom [35]

Answer:

b. the central bank lacked credibility and if bonds were usually indexed for inflation.

Explanation:

Economics can be classified into two (2) categories, namely;

1. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets.

Hence, it is focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.

2. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.

Inflation can be defined as the persistent general rise in the price of goods and services in an economy at a specific period of time.

Generally, inflation usually causes the value of money to fall and as a result, it imposes more cost on an economy.

When this persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy becomes rapid, excessive, unbearable and out of control over a period of time, it is generally referred to as hyperinflation.

In conclusion, an economist is more likely to argue against a reduction in inflation if she thought that the central bank lacked credibility and if bonds were usually indexed for inflation.
