Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: Risk.

Explanation:

In Finance, risk refers to the potential loss inherent in an investment. Typically, the higher the risk is over investment, the more possibilities of higher returns it contains but the higher the level of losses it might bring to the investor. There is a risk in every investment. What makes one different from the other is <em>the speed at which the investment will grow, how available the return will be when requested, </em>and <em>how safe the investment is going to be.</em>

2. Why might an investor choose to become a partner in a limited partnership instead of purchasing the stock of an open corporation? If an investor decided to join in a limited partnership instead of purchasing the stock on an open corporation they would have less to do with the business side as they would in an open corporation. When an investor joins in a limited partnership they have less management responsibility and little to no liability besides their initial investment.

3. Is growth a good thing for all firms? How does management know when a firm is ready to grow? Growth is not a good thing for all firms. Depending on what a company is looking to achieve long term, the financial assets they have now to achieve their growth and other goals are all subject to what the company is able to do with the finances and staffing they have. When a corporation is trying to decide whether or not they should grow, management will examine all aspects of the company to make sure they align with the growth plan.

4. If you were to start a business, which ownership form would you choose? What factors might affect your choice? If I were to start a business, I would probably choose a limited liability company (LLC) as the ownership form and structure. An LLC is where the members within the company are not held personally liable for the company’s debts or liabilities. Think ownership form works well if you were to join forces an open up a business with a friend or family member. An LLC keeps the tax side of the business easier as allowing the individuals to be self-proprietors. When considering factors that may change this decision they would include: who I am going in business with, what I am in business for, my end goals, current goals and current financial status. </span>

If the same number of units of good Y must be given up as each successive unit of good X is produced, then the PPF for these two
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

PPF : Downward Sloping Straight Line

Explanation:

PPF is the locus of product combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

It is downward sloping : Because of inverse relationship between two goods- if one has to be increased other has to be decreased , because of same resources & technology.

Marginal Opportunity Cost (Slope of PPC): is ratio of a good sacrifised to gain each additional unit of the other good.

∆ Good sacrifised / ∆ Good gained

If this ratio is same i.e constant amount of a good is sacrifised to gain an additional amount of the other one , the slope of PPC is constant & it is a straight line

Eg : Good1    Good2     MOC [∆Good2/∆Good1]

      0               20             _        

      10             10           -10/10 = -1                  (10-20)/(10-0)

       20              0           -10/10 = -1                   (0-10)(/20-10)

So , same (1) good 2 is sacrifised to attain a good 1 each time.

However Generally: MOC is increasing , because of assumption that resources are unequally efficient in various goods production - shifting good from efficient to inefficient increases sacrifise each time. This makes PPC usually concave.
