Answer:
The answer is: Following the expected value criterion the investor should choose indistinctively between the conservative or neutral alternatives.
Explanation:
The formula we use to calculate the expected return value of the different alternatives is:
ERV = ∑ (expected return x probability of occurrence)
The conservative alternative has an expected return value of of 4.5%
ERV Conservative = (6% x 25%) + (4% x 75%) = 4.5%
The neutral alternative also has an expected return value of of 4.5%
ERV Neutral = (12% x 25%) + (4% x 75%) = 4.5%
The aggressive alternative has an expected return value of of -1%
ERV Aggressive = (20% x 25%) + (-8% x 75%) = -1%
Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
A perfectly competitive market has a large number of buyers and sellers. The firms are price takers and the price is determined by the market forces. Thus the monopoly firms face a horizontal demand curve. This horizontal line represents price, average revenue, and marginal revenue. The equilibrium is obtained where price, (average revenue and marginal revenue) is equal to marginal cost. There is no restriction on entry and exit of firms in the long run. That's why firms face a break-even in the long run.
While in a monopoly market there is a single firm. This firm fixes price higher than marginal cost. The demand curve of the monopoly is a downward sloping showing relatively elastic demand. A monopoly firm can earn profits in both the short run as well as the long run.
