Answer:

5.52%

Explanation:

For computing the coupon rate we first have to determine the PMT by applying the PMT formula

Given that,  

Present value = $954

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 6.2%

NPER = 9 years

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(Rate;NPER;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the monthly payment is $55.18

Which explains why the price indicated by p2 on the graph is lower than the equilibrium price?
Vsevolod [243]

According to economic principles, as prices fall, quantity demanded goes up.

What is equilibrium price?

The market price at which the amount of goods supplied and the amount of goods sought are equal is referred to as the "equilibrium price."

The demand and supply model's reasoning is straightforward. For instance, when sugar prices are lower, the market's demand is automatically increased.

Excess demand is depicted in the graph. The price is less than the equilibrium price, as shown by p2 on the graph, since as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases.

As a result, option (a) As prices fall, quantity demanded goes up is correct.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: $50

Explanation:

We can use the Gordon Growth Model of Stock Valuation. The formula is thus,

P = D1 / r – g

D1 = the annual expected dividend of the next year

r = rate of return

g = the expected dividend growth rate (assumed to be constant)

There is no growth potential and dividends are expected to stay the same so no growth rate and D1 will be the same as D0.

Plugging that into the formula therefore will give us

P = D1/r

P= 4.5/0.09

= $50

Current Stock Price is $50.

horsena [70]

Answer:

the experience curve

Explanation:

The experience curve refers to a company having lower production costs due to increasing experience of the manufacturing process.

This concept applies to most activities in life, do you remember "practice makes perfect", well practice is equal to experience. For example the first time you drove a car, it probably took you a long time to go from your point of origin to your destination. Your driving inexperience increased the costs of driving from one place to another (more time and fuel spent). But after a while, when driving was something normal you are able to drive the same distance at a lower cost (less time and fuel).

Imagine for a car company that is trying out a new model. The first units are usually assembled with several flaws that must be corrected and are used to research possible design or equipment flaws. Those failures are corrected as the workers acquire more experience.
