Answer:

ATC > P = MR = MC

Explanation:

A monopolistic firm is a price taker, it faces a downward-sloping demand curve.  

If a monopolistic competitive firm is operating in the short run at an optimal level and earning negative economic profits, it means that the price is not able to cover the average total costs.  

If the firm is at the optimal level, the price must be equal to marginal revenue and marginal cost. But the price is not covering costs, so the firm is incurring losses.

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

A) decrease MPC​, increase MPS​, and decrease the multiplier so that changes in planned investment will have a smaller impact on equilibrium output.

Explanation:

When you receive money, e.g. get paid by your employer, the first thing you do is pay for your basic necessities which are classified as autonomous spending. Then hopefully you will have some money left which is classified as disposable income. You can do two things with your disposable income, either spend it or save it.

The proportion that you spend is called the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) and the remaining part that you save is called the marginal propensity to save (MPS). If the MPS was 1% in 2007 and increased to 5% in 2009, then the MPC was 0.99 in 2007 and 0.95 in 2009.

The formula to calculate the economic multiplier is 1 / MPS:

  • the economic multiplier in 2007 = 1 / 1% = 100
  • the economic multiplier in 2009 = 1 / 5% = 20

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

10%

Data provided in the question

Purchase value of the stock = $80

Number of years = 15

Times = 4

So, the return on owning this stock is

= Number of times^(1 ÷ number of years) - 1

= 4^(1÷15) - 1

= 4^0.0666666667  - 1

= 1.0968249797  - 1

= 0.0968249797

= 10% round off

All other things that are mentioned in the question is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
