Mkey [24]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

b. set by market supply and demand. 

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Because goods are homogenous and there are many buyers in the industry, sellers do not set the price for their goods and services. Prices are set by the market forces of demand and supply. This makes sellers price takers.

Other features of perfect competition are :

1. No barriers to entry or exit of firms

2. Firms make zero economic profit in the long run.

I hope my answer helps you.

defon

Answer: 8.79%

Explanation:

The premium or discount as a percent of NAV will be calculated thus:

NAV will be calculated as:

= (Market value of portfolio - liabilities ) / shares outstanding

= ($310 million - $3million) ÷ 10 million

= $30.7 per share.

Then, the calculation for the discount percent will be:

= (selling price - NAV) / NAV

= ($28 - $30.7) / $30.7

= ($-2.7) / $30.7

= (0.0879)

= 8.79%

Therefore, NAV is trading at discount of 8.79%

Professional athletes attempting only to maximize income will defer larger salaries if:
GenaCL600 [577]
Professional athletes attempting only to maximize income will defer larger salaries if DEFERRED PAYOUTS ARE ADJUSTED UPWARD TO COMPENSATE FOR FOREGONE INTERESTS.
If professional athletes, whose sole aim is larger income are asked to wait for sometime before collecting their salaries, with the promise that their incomes will be raise for the period of their waiting, then, most of them will gladly agree to the arrangement, since, they are sure of higher amounts.

The weekly incomes of shift foreman for a given industry follow a normal probability distribution. With a mean of $1,000 and a s
mylen [45]

Answer:

There is a 0.2419% for a foreman to earn either $1,100 or $900

Explanation:

We calculate the probability of a normal distribution of 0;1

(X-mean)/deviation = Z

(1,100 - 1,000)/100 = 100/100 = 1

900 - 1,00/100 = -100/100 = -1

Given the zame Z value, we have the same probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900

As we are asked for the foreman salary, wewill calcualte the Z for non cumulative, just the probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900 dollars.

We look into the normal distribution table for the value of z = -1 or 1

0.002419707  = 0.2419%

You have your choice of two investment accounts. Investment A is a five-year annuity that features end-of-month $2,500 payments
oee [108]

Answer:

$119,176.06

Explanation:

Calculation for How much would you need to invest in B today

First step is to calculate the Future value of annuity (FVA)

FVA =$2,500 * ({[1 + (.115 / 12)](5 × 12) - 1} / (.115 / 12))

FVA = $201,462.23

Since we have known the FVA Second Step will be to calculate the Present value (PV)

PV = $201,462.23 × e-1 × .105 × 5

PV= $119,176.06

Therefore the amount that you would need to invest in B today will be $119,176.06
