Answer:
c. -$1 billion and $3 billion.
Explanation:
GDP = C + I + G
20 = 15 + 2 + G
G = 20 - 15 - 2 = 3
The government spending is 3 billion. which makes only option c or d correct.
Now we need to solve for public savings:
Taxes - Goverment Spending = Public savings
2 - 3 = -1
the government runs with a 1 billion deficit.
This makes option c correc
Answer:
a) actual dollar = $60
b) Constant dollar of the 15th payment = $38.710
Explanation:
Facts from the question:
The Face value of the bond = $1,000
Nominal Interest rate = 12% and it compounded annually
General inflation rate = 6%
The question: Determine the 15th interest payment on the bond.
Step 1: The coupon for the amount of semi annual payment is as follows:
Coupon= (Interest rate/ Number of compounding times in a year) x face value of the bond
= (0.12/2) x 1000
= $60 -= Actual dollar amount
Step 2: Determine the 15th payment and this will represent the middle of the 8th year or (7 1/2) year.
To calculate this=
Constant dollar amount of the 15th interest payment
= Actual dollar amount (above) / (1 + inflation rate)∧n
where n= the number of years = 7.5 years
= $60 / (1 + 0.06) ∧7.5
= $60/1.55
= $38.710
This means the constant dollar amount on that 15th payment = $38.710
Answer:
Big buy must sell at large at a smaller price which will give tough time to Radio Shack and this is the threat that RadioShack don't want to bear.
Explanation:
Best Buy will choose large quantity because it helps in satisfying the needs of public at large at a lower price. This will force RadioShack to lower its price which will result in losses and this fear of losses will act as a enterance deterent. Though the profit on this strategy is lower but it will safeguard future revenues as RadioShack will not enter the market or get defeated very quickly.

Answer:
Current value from operations is $534.71 million.
Explanation:
The value from operations can be calculated by discounting back the free cash flow of the firm. The first three year's FCF will be discounted back using the WACC and when the growth rate o FCF becomes constant after Year 3, the terminal value will be calculated and discounted back too.
The current value from operations = FCF1 / (1+WACC) + FCF2 / (1+WACC)² + FCF3 / (1+WACC)³ + [FCF3 * (1+g) / WACC - g] / (1+WACC)³
Current value from operations = 20 / (1+0.1) + 25 / (1+0.1)² + 30 / (1+0.1)³ + [30 * (1+0.05) / (0.1 - 0.05)] / (1+0.1)³
Current value from operations = $534.71 million
