Answer:
C. 2.2.
Explanation:
Mid point elasticity is calculated as follows:
<em>% change in qty supplied/ % change in price</em>
<em />
<em>% change in qty supplied</em>
= (600-400)/(600+400)/2
= 0.4
<em> % change in price </em>
= (12 -10)/(12+10)/2
= 0.181
Mid point elasticity
= 0.4/0.18
=2.2
Answer:
Options (a), (b) and (d) are correct.
Explanation:
Gross domestic product refers to the total value of production of goods and services during a period of time within the boundaries of the nation. GDP of a nation also represents the standard of living of that nation. If the GDP of a nation increases then it is assumed that the standard of living of that nation also increases.
But there are some flaws or loopholes in this assumption as non-marketing activities and the underground economy makes the GDP an imperfect measure of a particular economic activity.
Is doesn't includes the quality of goods received by the consumers as it doesn't contribute towards GDP of a nation.
It doesn't takes into account the non-market activities such as self service and house work. If a person is cleaning his home then this doesn't contribute towards GDP but if he hires someone to do the same job then then this will contribute towards the calculation of GDP as it is counted as a consumption expenditure.
Loss of enjoyment will also not counted while determining the GDP.
Government pay checks to soldiers will be included in the GDP because it increases the GDP of a nation.
Answer:
a.
Excess return for Zynga today will be -3.38%
b.
Excess return on P&G today will be -1.04%
Explanation:
The excess return is the return earned above/beyond the benchmark return. This benchmark can be set at either the risk free rate or any other stock or portfolio's return.
The return on a stock is usually calculated using the CAPM equation. The CAPM considers risk free rate, the return on market and the stock's beta to calculate the expected return on a stock.
The market always has a beta of 1. Beta is the measure of the volatility of stock returns. If the excess return on the market falls or rises, the effect of this on a stock's excess return will be based on its beta.
a.
The excess return of Zynga today will be = -2.6% * 1.3 = -3.38%
b.
The excess return of P&G today will be = -2.6% * 0.4 = -1.04%
Answer:
Ethics
Explanation:
Ethics also called moral philosophy involves how an individual systemises, defends and recommends the concept of right or wrong.
Summer is facing an ethical decision of either returning the bag or keeping it for herself. Her decision will be based on her definition of right or wrong.
If her moral philosophy is one that does not see theft as something that is wrong, she will decide to keep the bag. If on the other hand she sees keeping the bag that is not her own as wrong she will decide to return it.
