Answer:

convexity = 37.6306

Explanation:

given data:

maturity time = 7 years

yield to maturity (y) = 8% = 0.08

coupon bond = 6%

price= $89.59 ( gotten from the summation of pv(cf) from the table attached below )

t = time

convexity can be found using this formula

= \frac{1}{p(1+y)^2}  *  summation of (t +t^2) * pv(cf)

= \frac{1}{89.59*(1.08)^2} * 3932.310   = 37.6306

In regard to firm growth, evidence shows that ________. service firms tend to generate sustained growth while manufacturing firm
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

At least during the last couple of decades, service firms tend to generate sustained growth while manufacturing firms do not.

Explanation:

The last president that recorded a steady manufacturing growth rate was Bill Clinton.

Service firms are growing steadily and probably will continue to do it. While manufacturing firms have been slowing down, their growth rate (if any) is not very large during the past few years and that tendency has increased with the new trade barriers imposed by our government during the last couple of years.

Another thing that helps the growth of service firms is that when manufacturing firms or agricultural firms grow, they need more services, so service firms will grow even more.

Three necessary conditions must be met before a seller can practice third-degree price discrimination. The conditions are: buyer
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A. The Seller Must Prevent Transfer of Sales Between the Groups or Submarkets

Explanation:

There are three degrees of price discrimination as follows:

First Degree - This is the perfect degree, where sellers charge consumers the reservation price for goods.

Second Degree - Sellers divide their consumers into groups called blocks and decide to charge certain blocks at the reservation price for goods.

Third Degree - At this point, sellers divide their consumers into sub-markets, each sub-market has its unique demand curve and sellers try to maximise profit in each sub-market.

Looking at the third degree therefore, if sellers are not able to prevent transfer of sales between submarkets then this price discrimination cannot work. Because Submarket A will be able to interact with Submarket B and this will influence the demand curve and even sales.

For instance, if the seller sells at $2 to Submarket A and at $4 to Submarket B; consumers of Submarket B can easily contact Submarket A and buy for $2.5 and cut off the seller completely. Therefore, the seller must prevent the transfer of sales between the submarkets for this degree of discrimination to work.
