<h3>Increased factory product indicates derived demand is True statement. </h3>

Explanation:

The dealers kept waiting lists of people wanting Toyota Prius, so ordering more raw materials required to ramp up production is a clear example of derived demand.

Derived demand is an economic term that describes the demand for a certain good or service arising from a demand for similar, necessary goods or services.  

Derived demand represents the association between the demand of customers for the output of a company and the purchase by the company of the required inputs for the production or assembly of that particular output.

1.If Enviromax wants to maximize profit, what price would they charge?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

The question is incomplete. However, kindly find below the complete version of the question:

Question

Jack and Diane own Enviromax, a monopolistically competitive firm that recycles paper products. (1.)If Enviromax wants to maximize profit, what price would they charge?  (2).What is their profit per unit if they are operating at the profit maximizing output?

Answer / Explanation

(1) First before we continue to answer this question, let us define what a monopoly is: This is a kind of market situation where the sole production or manufacturing of a product have been given to a single entity.

The graph attached below will give us a proper understanding and illustration of the answer.

Where:  MR in the graph is defined as the additional revenue obtained when producers produce 1 more unit of good and the AR refers to the total revenue divided by the amount of output produced which is essentially  the price of one unit of good.

MC refers to the additional cost incurred by producers when they produce 1 more unit of good  and is upwards sloping due to increasing opportunity costs of production.  

Noting that since the firm is a monopolistic type, the MR curve is lower than the  AR curve because if the firm wants to sell an additional unit of output it will have to lower the  successive price.  This is unlike the case of a firm operating in a PC where it takes the price as given and hence has no  ability to set prices.  it should also be noted that profit maximizing for all firms (whether PC or non-PC) occurs at MC=MR. This is because if MC>MR  this means the additional cost of producing this unit of good > additional revenue obtained from selling  this unit of good and is hence not profit maximizing. If MC<MR, this implies that the firm should not stop  at producing this unit of good because it will be forgoing the additional net revenue (profit) should it do  so. Hence all firms will produce at the point where MC=MR.

(2) Now referring back to the graph, the profit-maximising point where MC intersects MR hence occurs at  output Q. The firm will hence produce Q and hence price at P according to the AR (DD) curve.

In the graph below, since AR > AC at the profit maximizing level, this implies that per unit revenue > per unit costs and the firm makes a supernormal profit (defined as what excess profit above what is  needed to keep firms in production which is normal profit) of the shaded area.  If the firm was operating in a perfectly competitive market however, then the profit maximizing point  would occur at AR =MC (since AR=MR in a PC market) and the firm would be producing at Qpc and Ppc

Tell whether the statement is TRUE or FALSE. Deregulation always leads to lower prices for the consumer.
SVEN [57.7K]
FALSE. Deregulation allows vendors or sellers to set individual prices with no regulation, therefore more likely to set higher rates.

The YTM on a 2 year zero coupon bond is 5% and the YTM on a 1 year zero coupon bond is 3%. What does the no-arbitrage condition
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<em>$111.11 or 111.11% of face value</em>

Explanation:

Assuming the face value of $100 for all bonds (without loss of generality)

If the two year coupon bond is repackaged as a one year zero coupon bond paying $12 after one year and another two year bond paying $112 after 2 years, the price of the two zero coupon bonds are given as

Price of one year Zero coupon bond = 12/1.05 = $11.43 (one year ZCB has YTM of 5%)

Price of two year Zero coupon bond = 112/1.06^2 = $99.68 (two year ZCB has YTM of 6%)

So, one can sell the repackaged bonds at a price = $11.43+ $99.68 = $111.11 or 111.11% of face value

How do society, politics, and culture affect HRM?
saul85 [17]

Explanation:

Human resource management is responsible for attracting, retaining and helping employees to develop skills that will contribute to an organization achieving its objectives and goals.

Therefore, this strategic business area is directly impacted by society, politics and culture, as human capital in companies is increasingly valued in companies, as today's society is more connected and more informed, which requires companies to adapt to increasingly developed and organized standards with respect to labor relations.

The globalized world directly impacted the relationship between the employee and the company, as it is necessary to stand out in an environment where there is so much competition, and this is also included in the area of ​​human resources, because through an effective HR management, it is possible to capture and retaining talent for the organization that adapts to a world where there is greater interaction, greater need for innovation and vision.

The policy is also essential for the protection of employees and their rights, which means that HR must not only comply with legislative requirements for hiring, but also offer benefits that exceed those required, so that candidates are attracted to work in a company well positioned in the market.
