Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Beer prices will go down.

Explanation:

Usually, when two large companies merge they take most or almost all part of their market causing a monopoly. This implies the recently-merged company to set the price of the goods according to what they believe is suitable which does not necessarily match with the consumers' expectations. However, for the companies in the case to prove the government that the merger will benefit the economy, they must show that the price of the beer will go down which is the opposite of what is expected under other regular situations.

You have borrowed $28,000 at an interest rate of 12% compounded annually. Equal payments will be made over a four-year period, w
Sloan [31]

Answer:

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12 (1.12)^4}{(1.12)^4 -1}]

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12*1.574}{1.574-1}]

A=28000*0.3292 = 9218.564

So then the annual pay would be $ 9218.564 for this case

Explanation:

For this question we can use the Equivalent annual value (A) given by the following expression:

A = PV [\frac{i (1+i)^t}{(1+i)^t -1}]

Where PV = 28000 represent the pesent value

i = 0.12 since the rate is yearly

t = 4 since we have 4 years to pay

So then we have everything to replace and we got:

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12 (1.12)^4}{(1.12)^4 -1}]

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12*1.574}{1.574-1}]

A=28000*0.3292 = 9218.564

So then the annual pay would be $ 9218.564 for this case

And this amount would be paid each year in order to pay all the money after 4 years.
