Answer:

According to the unbiased expectations theory, the current rate for a two-year treasury security should be 0.98%.

Explanation:

Unbiased Expectations Theory help us predict future short-term interest rate by using current long-term interest rates.

T-bill rate = 0.33%

Expected one-year rate 12 months from now = 1.30%

1R2= [(1 + 0.0033)(1 + 0.013)]^{\frac{1}{2}}− 1

= 1.0098 - 1 = 0.98%

Both firms in a Cournot duopoly would enjoy lower profits if:
daser333 [38]

Answer:

each firm simultaneously increased output above the Nash equilibrium level.

Explanation:

A French mathematician, Antoine Augustine Cournot developed the Cournot duopoly in his economic model “Researches into the mathematical principles of the theory of wealth”, of 1838.

Cournot duopoly also known as the Cournot competition, is an economic model where two (2) business firms having identical cost functions compete in a oligopolistic market of imperfect competition with homogeneous products.

Under the Cournot duopoly, the competing firms offer identical products and thus, choose an amount or quantity to produce independently and at the same time because they cannot collude.

Both firms in a Cournot duopoly would enjoy lower profits if each firm simultaneously increased output above the Nash equilibrium level.

Hence, the advantage of the Cournot duopoly is that, it inhibits competing firms from deviating unilaterally.

UNO [17]

Answer:

a) 15.69%

Explanation:

The computation of the expected return is shown below:

= (Current year dividend ÷ current price) + growth rate

where,

Current year dividend = Dividend × ( 1 + dividend growth rate)

                                     = $0.46 × (1 + 14.5%)

                                     = $0.527

And, the other item values remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= ($0.527 ÷ $44.12) + 0.145

=  15.69%
