Answer:
(C) the forces of supply and demand
Explanation:
In a perfectly competitive industry, no single buyer nor seller will be able to influence prices thus marking the forces of demand and supply (the invisible hand) the determinant of pricing. Each buyer or seller will only account for a minute portion of total demand and supply thus making their influence of market price insignificant.
Options (A), (B) and (D) are incorrect as the largest firms, individual sellers and individual buyers do not influence pricing over price in a perfectly competitive market.
Answer:
Explanation:
a.Present value of inflows=cash inflow*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=150,000/1.12+210,000/1.12^2+360,000/1.12^3
=557580.18
NPV=Present value of inflows-Present value of outflows
=557580.18-460,000
=$97580.18(Approx)=Value of factory
b.Hence since net present value is positive;factory is a good investment
(Yes)
Answer: reduce output.
Explanation:
In a competitive market, firms do not have control over the price that they sell their goods in the market but they do have control over their costs. It is recommended to produce/ sell goods at a quantity where Marginal Revenue will equal Marginal cost (MR = MC).
In a Competitive Market, Price is the same as Marginal revenue which means that Marginal revenue here is $25 and the Marginal Cost is $26. At this quantity of output, the Marginal Cost is larger than the Marginal revenue.
Company should therefore reduce output to a quantity where Marginal Cost will equal Marginal revenue.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that arises for fixed-rate investments from fluctuating interest rates. How much interest rate risk a fixed-rate investment has depends on how sensitive its price is to interest rate changes in the market.
