Answer:
1- Walmart wanted global expansion and it availed the opportunity to expand its business by entering Indian market, however the Indian market is far different than the US market that is why a joint-venture was required to enter the different market as Bharti Enterprises was already operating in Indian market.
2- To enter a new market Joint-venture will be suitable because:
In acquisition the investor acquires all the shares of an existing organisation in this way the investor will not be able to operate with the same name as in other markets as the organisation whose shares are purchased already will have a name which if changed all the goodwill will be lost. In a Joint venture the investor and a local investor invests together to form a different organisation, in this method the organisations jointly own a newly formed organisation in which they both jointly decide the name and the local investor have knowledge about the local market which can be helpful if the customer taste is different than the investors market. In a Greenfield investment the investor purchases shares and bonds of an organisation already operating in the targeted market, in this way the investor will not be able to operate with the same name as in other markets as the organisation whose shares are purchased already will have a name which if changed all the goodwill will be lost.

Answer:
$ 915.71
Explanation:
In order to determine the second bond price we need to determine the number of years to maturity of the first bond using nper formula in excel.
=nper(rate,pmt.-pv,fv)
rate is the semiannual interest rate of 6% (12%*6/12)
pmt is the semiannual interest=$1000*8.3%*6/12=$41.50
pv is the current price at $813.04
fv is the face value of $1000
=nper(6%,41.50,-813.04,1000)= 16.00
The years to maturity=16/2=8 years
The years to maturity of second bond=8+3=11 years
price of second bond=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is 6%
nper is 11 years multiplied by 2= 22
pmt =5.3%*$1000=$53
fv is $1000
=-pv(6%,22,53,1000)=$915.71
Answer:
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
In an unregulated market, negative externality results in a higher social marginal cost than the firm marginal cost because this market is not properly regulated by the government officials. Hence, these firms are not taking into account the effect of negative externalities in their cost.
We know that the consumer's decision is more offenly based on the point where the marginal cost is equal to the marginal benefit because they are not taking the impact of negative externalities.
If proper action is not taken by the government, negative externality will result in a market inefficiencies.
