Answer:

Residents (people's) reaction to Incentives

Explanation:

An incentive represents something, an action or a law that causes people to act or change their behaviour about something at a particular time. Basically, incentives work by making rewards available to individuals who change their behaviour on a targeted issue.

Usually, since people rationally compare the costs and benefits of their actions, incentives gives them the opportunity to raise their perception of this costs and benefits and also induces them to respond.

Florida increases the tax on alcoholic beverages, the people still see the benefits of taking alcohol but not at the increased, the reaction therefore, is to purchase in surrounding states where they are still cheaper without a tax increase.

It should be noted from the Florida example that the reaction of people to incentives can both be negative and positive. This example shows a negative response as a result of raised costs when compared with benefits.

raketka [301]

Answer:

10.4%

Explanation:

The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-

Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)

= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)

= 5% + 5.4%

= 10.4%

Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.

The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium

Answer:

b. The slope of the budget constraint is the same for each woman.

Explanation:

Budget Line is the combination of two goods that a consumer can buy, given prices & money income (all spent).

Equation : p1x1 + p2x2 = m ;

where p1 & p2 are price of good 1 & 2 , x1 & x2 are quantities of good 1 & good 2 , m = money income  

  • Abby's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 80
  • Bobbi's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 60
  • Deborah's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 40 [ I = Icecream, N = Novel ]  

Slope of Budget Line represents change (sacrifise) of a good needed to get change (gain) of other good, given same prices & income.

Slope = ΔY/ΔX = Px / Py

Since prices are same for each woman, price ratios & hence the slope of budget line will also be same for all of them.
