Answer:

The correct answer that fills the gap is: Cartels generate the highest joint profit, they want to avoid a price war that leads to profit erosion and P=MC, a cournot oligopoly will generate more profit than a bertrand oligopoly

Explanation:

In Bertrand's model, consumers will buy the goods of the company that offers the lowest price. From this it can be intuited that the Nash equilibrium will be the one in which both companies set the same price. For this reason it is not attractive, since they are competition and for some of the two it may not be profitable to decrease the sale price of their products.

Stan is choosing between two goods, candy bars and sodas, and his marginal utility from each is as shown in the table. stan's da
vredina [299]

Answer: Stan will buy 3 units of Candy bars and 5 units of Soda.

Explanation:

The optimal consumption bundle s given by the point where the indifference curve is tangent to the budget line. At this point, the slope of the indifference curve is equal to the slope of the budget line.

That is

\frac{MRSc}{MRSs} = \frac{Pc}{Ps}

\frac{MUc}{Pc} =\frac{MUs}{Ps}

This marginal utility per dollar is equal for consumption bundles,

1 unit of candy bar, 4 units of soda = Total expenditure = $6 < Income. Thus not optimal

3 unit of candy bar, 5 units of soda = Total expenditure = $11 = Income. Thus optimal bundle

5 unit of candy bar, 6 units of soda = Total expenditure = $16 > Income. Thus not optimal

7 unit of candy bar, 7 units of soda = Total expenditure = $21 > Income. Thus not optimal

Therefore, 3 units of candy bars and 5 units of soda is the only optimal bundle which utilizes  all the income to maximize consumption.

What is the difference between Absolute Advantage and Compartive Advantage?
Kitty [74]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Absolute advantage simply means when an economic entity such as individuals or the firms can produce a particular good more efficiently than others who produce similar good. In this case, a larger quantity is produced when compared to others.

Comparative advantage is when an economic agent can actually produce goods at an opportunity cost that's lower than the opportunity cost of its competitors. Due to this, such economic agent can sell its good at a cheaper price than others and therefore make more revenue.

You are offered a court settlement in the following terms: you will receive 7 equal payments of $7,275 each every year, with the
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$34,244.98

Explanation:

For computing the settlement worth in present value terms  first we have to determine the future value which is shown below:

Value at year 4 = Annuity  × [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + interest rate)^number of years] ÷ interest rate

= $7,275 × [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + 0.07)^7] ÷ 0.07

= $7,275 ×  [1 - 0.6227497419 ] ÷ 0.07

= $7,275 ×  5.3892894016

= $39207.08

Now the present value is

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

$39,207.08 = Present value × (1 + 0.07)^2

So, the present value is

= $39,207.08 ÷ 1.1449

= $34,244.98

We simply applied the above formula so that the present value comes i.e today's value
