Answer:

7,657 bonds

Explanation:

In order to determine the minimum number of bonds first we have to find out the present value of the bond which is to be shown in the attached spreadsheet.

Data provided in the question

Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = $1,000 × 9% ÷ 2 = $45

Rate of interest = 10% ÷ 2 = 5%

NPER = 20 years × 2 = 40 years

The formula is shown below:

= PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the present value of the bond is $914.20

Now the raise amount is $7 million

So, the number of minimum number of bonds is

= $7,000,000 ÷ $914.20

= 7,657 bonds

How can a country gain from specialization and​ trade? A. A country can specialize in producing that for which it has an absolut
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

C. A country can specialize in producing that for which it has a comparative advantage and then trade for other needed goods and services.

Explanation:

<em>Comparative advantage</em> is simply evaluating the opportunity cost of other benefits or costs, if the country is opting to choose for a specific category of goods for production purposes.

For example, let's say US can produce 20 Television (TV) sets and 50 Air Conditioners in a month. Here, the opportunity cost of producing 1 TV set is 50/20 i.e. 2.5 Air Conditioners. Similarly, the opportunity cost of producing 1 Air Conditioner (AC) is 20/50 i.e. 0.4 TV set. Hence, US should produce Air Conditioners over TV sets as per <em>Comparative Advantage</em> concept.

Take another example, let's say UK can produce 50 Television (TV) sets and 20 Air Conditioners in a month. Hence, the opportunity cost of producing 1 TV set is 20/50 i.e. 0.4 Air Conditioner. On the other hand, the opportunity cost of producing 1 AC is 50/20 i.e. 2.5 TV sets. Thus, UK should produce TV sets over AC's as per <em>Comparative Advantage </em>model.

Hence, US should export AC's to UK and import TV sets from UK to gain from specialization and trade.

<em> In this way nations can gain from specialization and trade by making use of Comparative Advantage theory</em>.

It is to be noted that <em>Absolute Advantage model </em>of Adam Smith is also good as it highlights production of that good by a country, which it can produce in large quantities with fewer resources and minimal time than any other nation in the world. But the <em>Comparative Advantage Model </em>developed by David Ricardo considers opportunity cost and is much more refined than Absolute Advantage Model.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The given approach would be "Proxy indicators".

Explanation:

  • A proxy indicator would be a parameter that often used substitute throughout that would be harder to quantify individually.
  • This would be an ambiguous indication of either estimate which may well approximate or otherwise be indicative of such an occurrence or without the existence of either a specific measurement.

So really the answer above would be appropriate.
