Answer:

The answer is: remain the same

Explanation:

The marginal utility of a good or service is how much better we feel when consuming an extra unit of that good or service. For example if we are very thirsty, the marginal utility of consuming a can of Coke is very large, but once our thirst is quenched, an extra can of Coke will not provide use with that much satisfaction as before.

If the price of a substitute good increases, the marginal utility of the good whose price didn't change, will remain the same.

Let's go back to the Coke example. An extra can of Coke will give me 5 more satisfaction units (I'm assuming I can measure satisfaction) and an extra slice of pizza will give me 7 more units of satisfaction. If the price of Coke increases from 50 cents to $1, its marginal utility will decrease. I will buy more pizza because the satisfaction I get from drinking Coke is now smaller.

While everyone's personal financial goals will be unique to their situation, the means for achieving them will be similar. What
MrRa [10]

Answer:

increase their savings

Explanation:

Saving is the action of putting aside a portion of income in a safe place instead of spending.  It is a technique that firms and individuals use to achieve their financial objectives. Consistent saving for a duration of time helps accumulates a substantial amount of money that can be used to actualize financial objectives.

While savings is not the financial objective, it is a means to achieve the actual goal. For Example, if one goal is to own a home or a car, they start saving for the down-payment. Saving helps achieve their long term goals.

Here are data on two companies. The T-bill rate is 5.8% and the market risk premium is 7.4%.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

18.38% and 13.2%

Explanation:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

So for Discount store, it is

= 5.8% + 1.7 × 7.4%

= 5.8% + 12.58%

= 18.38%

And for everything store, it is

= 5.8% + 1.0 × 7.4%

= 5.8% + 7.4%

= 13.2%

The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium and the same is applied.
