Answer:
Quinn values the apple pie at $4 and the chocolate cake at $10 = total $14
- since one "half" will only be chocolate, he needs $7 out of chocolate = 7/10 of the chocolate cake.
- the other "half" will include 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $10) + $4 = $3 + $4 = $7
If Dustin chooses the second "half" he will receive 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $4) + $6 = $1.20 + $6 = $7.20
Answer: socially wasteful
Explanation:
Product differentiation is when a product is being distinguished from similar products in order to make it more appealing and therefore drive consumers choice.
It should be noted that critics of market-oriented economies may argue that product differentiation is socially wasteful.

Answer:
$291.56
Explanation:
Find the dividend amount per year;
D1 = D0(1+g ) = 3.40(1+0) = 3.40
D2 = 3.40*(1.05) =3.57
D3 = 3.57*(1.05) =3.7485
D4= 3.7485*(1.15) = 4.3108
D5 = 4.3108 *(1.10) = 4.7419
Find the Present value of each year's dividend;
PV (of D1) = 3.40/ (1.14 ) = 2.9825
PV (of D2) = 3.57/ (1.14² ) = 2.7470
PV (of D3) = 3.7485/ (1.14³ ) = 2.5301
PV (of D4) = 4.3108/ (1.14^4 ) = 2.5523
PV (of D5 onwards)
PV (of D5 onwards) = 280.7519
Next, sum up the PVs to find the maximum price of this stock;
= 2.9825 + 2.7470 + 2.5301 + 2.5523 + 280.7519
= 291.564
Therefore, an investor should pay $291.56
