Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The double coincidence of wants or coincidence of wants refers to the situation where two parties possess items that the other one wants so they exchange it directly without using money.  

Here, a fan possesses a Mike Trout baseball card who wants to trade it for a Giancarlo Stanton baseball​ card but he does not know anyone who wants a Trout card and possesses a Stanton card.  

Simply put, the fan doesn't know anyone who possesses the item he wants and is willing to trade it for the item he possesses. This is an example of failure in the double coincidence of wants.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Krell's dividend yield and equity cost of​ capital are 4.23% and 19.95%

Explanation:

Dividend yield = expected dividend/price today

                         = $ 0.89/$ 21.05

                         = 4.23%

Equity cost of capital = (Ending share price - Initial price + Dividend per share) / Initial price * 100

                                   = [($24.36 - $21.05 + 0.89)/$21.05]*100

                                   = 19.95%

Therefore, Krell's dividend yield and equity cost of​ capital are 4.23% and 19.95%

(c) how many times larger is the u.s. economy than the ethiopian economy?
Art [367]
To approximate the size of USA in relation to Ethiopia we proceed as follows:
Size of Ethiopia GDP in 2017=$ 76.9x10^9
Size of USA GDP=19.6x10^12
thus the scale factor of USA to Ethiopia will be:
19.6x10^12/76.9x10^9
=254.9
this can be written as a whole number to be
255
the economy of US is 255 times that of Ethipia
