Answer:

a.) Long-run earnings growth occurs primarily because firms retain earnings and reinvest them in the business.

Explanation:

Retained earnings are portions of a firm's net income that is plowed back into the business. For example if it makes a net income of $2,000,000 and it pays out 30% of that as dividends, the dividends in dollars would be 0.30*2,000,000 = $600,000. The remaining portion i.e 70% is retained back into the company, hence the amount would be 0.70*2,000,000 = $1,400,000.

This retained amount could be used to invest in potential profitable businesses that will result in increase in shareholder value. In a nutshell,  the higher percentage of  retained earnings the higher the growth rate a company will experience.

Susan can pick 4 pounds of coffee beans in an hour or gather 2 pounds of nuts. Tom can pick 2 pounds of coffee beans in an hour
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

$96 per day

Explanation:

Competitive advantage refers to producing or doing something more efficiently than others. Susan has a competitive advantage in picking coffee beans as she can pick 4 pounds of coffee beans in an hour as compared to nuts which she can only pick 2 in an hour. She also has an advantage in picking coffee beans over Tom who can only pick 2 pounds of coffee beans while taking the same time as Susan do for 4 pounds.

Tom, on the other hand, has a competitive advantage in picking nuts as he can pick twice the amount of nuts than Susan can pick in an hour.

If both were to specialize in their competitive advantage,

  • Susan can pick, 4 × 6 = 24 pounds of coffee beans per day
  • Tom can pick, 4 × 6 = 24 pounds of nuts per day

So, if they sell their produces at the world market, they can collectively earn a total of $96 per day.

  • Total Earning = 24 pounds coffee beans × $2 + 24 pounds of nuts × $2 = $96
