Answer:
Short-run economics primarily affect price.
Explanation:
When demand decreases for any reason, prices go down in the short term. When demand spikes, prices go up. ... Long-run adjustments occur when sustained increases or decreases in demand cause a business to change its practices and can affect both price and the means of production.
Answer:
a. Project A requires an up-front expenditure of $1,000,000 and generates a net present value of $3,200.
Explanation:
a.
The company should accept project A because it provides a positive net present value of $3,200 that is the highest among all the projects.
b.
When the IRR of a project is lower than the required rate of return of the project, it will generate the negative net present value because at IRR the net present value of the project will be zero and at a higher rate than IRR it will be negative.
c.
The project with a profitability index of less than 1 generates a negative NPV because the present value of future cash flows is less than the initial cash outflow.
d.
Project D also generates a positive net present value but it is lower than project A. So, after comparing the results we will choose the project with higher NPV.

Gross profit= 390,000
Selling and administrative expense= (90,000)
Depreciation expense= (75,000)
Interest expense= (46,000)
Eearning before taxes (EBT)= 179,000
Taxes= (50,000)

Answer:
= 18.7%
Explanation:
<em>A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The return on a portfolio is the weighted average of all the return of the individual assets weighted according to the percentage of total funds allocated to each assets.</em>
Expected return on portfolio:
E(R) =( Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb)
Wa = 56% , Wb = 100-56 = 44%
Ra = 12%, Rb = 24%
E(R) = (0.56*24%) + (0.44× 12%)
= 18.7%
Answer:
1. This is true.
The Germans will pay a higher price for tuna because the tariff will increase the price of imported tuna and the reduction in completion with the local producers will lead to higher prices as the local producers take up their price.
2. This is true.
German producers no longer have to compete as much with imported tuna which was cheaper. They will therefore be able to raise their prices.
3. This statement is false.
The world price of Tuna DOES NOT increase because the tariff is only applicable in Germany. Other parts of the world will trade tuna as before. This is what is assumed.
4. This statement is true.
If Vietnam was exporting tuna to Germany, they will become worse off because they will see a decline in demand for their tuna on account of the tariffs making the tuna more expensive.
5. This is false.
Vietnamese tuna consumers will still pay the same price to get tuna because Vietnam produces the tuna. It is Vietnam's producers that will suffer not the consumers.
