Answer:

86%

2074

Explanation:

The four-firm concentration ratio is the concentration ratio of the four largest firms.

four-firm concentration ratio = 27% + 26%, 21%, + 12% = 86%

The HHI index is found by squaring the concentration ratio of all the firms and adding them together.

729 + 676 + 441 + 144 + 64 + 16 + 4 = 2074

I hope my answer helps you.

1. Assume that the money demand function is (M / P)d = 2,200 – 200r, where r is the interest rate in percent. The money supply M
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

r= 3

Explanation:

Due that the level price does not changed, the first thing that you have to do to find the equilibrium is put the two equations with an equal

Money demand =Supply of money

2,200 – 200 r= 2,000

Now you have to find the value of r and you have to clear the formula and first you have to:

2,800- 2,200 = 200r

Now that you have the number together you have to apply the operation

600 = 200r

As the 200 is multiplying the r you have to pass the 200 to divided the 600

r= (600/200)

r= 3%

The interest rate is 3%

You have an investment that will pay you 1.18 percent per month. a. How much will you have per dollar invested in one year? (Do
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is $1.15 and for option (b) is $1.33.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Present value (PV) = $1

Rate of interest (R) = 1.18% per month

Time period (for option a) (t1)= 12 months

Time period ( for option b) (t2)= 24 months

So, we can calculate the future value by using following formula:

FV = PV × ( 1 + R )^t

(a). By putting value in the formula:

FV = $1 ( 1 + 0.0118)^12

= $1 × 1.1511610877

= $1.15

FV = PV × ( 1 + R )^t

(b). By putting value in the formula:

FV = $1 ( 1 + 0.0118)^24

= $1 × 1.32517184983

= $1.33

American Chemical Company manufactures a chemical compound that is sold for $52 per gallon. A new variant of the chemical has be
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000

Explanation:

increase in selling price = selling price of new variant of chemical - selling price of chemical compound

                                         = $83 - $52

                                         = $31

Net increase in profit = total increase in selling price - additional processing cost

                                    = $31*8000 - $160000

                                    = $248000 - $160000

                                    = $88,000

Therefore, If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000.

net increase in profit =

Julli [10]

Answer:

$170,000.00

Explanation:

The amount of $170,000.00 will still be recorded as the value of the building, before considering accumulated depreciation.

<em>Fair value</em> of $1,000,000.00 or <em>selling price</em> of $900,000.00 does not affect the original value of the building in the company's balance sheet.
