Answer:

Correct option is 6.59

Explanation:

Selling price of stock at the end of the year is $6.99. Annual return rate is 6%. Price of stock at the beginning will be present value of stock valued at the end discounted at 6%. Computation is as shown below:

Present\ value\ or\ price\ of\ stock = Selling\ price\left ( \frac{1}{1+i} \right )^{n}

= 6.99\left ( \frac{1}{1+0.06} \right )^{1}

= \frac{6.99}{1.06}

= $6.59

Therefore, Stock's price in the beginning of the year is $6.59.

You are an adviser to the Indian government. Until now, government policy in India has been to severely limit imports into India
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

1. The size of the economy as a whole grows as a result of free trade.

2. Consumers benefit from free trade.

3. Free trade can reduce cost of trading:

Explanation:

The three strongest arguments that you can offer to the Indian government about why the policy shift to freer trade is desirable for India are as follows:

1. The size of the economy as a whole grows as a result of free trade: It provides for more efficient production of goods and services. This is because it encourages goods and services to be created in areas with the finest natural resources, infrastructure, or skills and experience. It boosts productivity, which can lead to greater long-term wages. There is universal consensus that growing global trade has boosted economic growth in recent decades.

2. Consumers benefit from free trade: By removing barriers and promoting competition, it lowers prices. Quality and choice are likely to improve as a result of increased competition.

3. Free trade can reduce cost of trading: Non-tariff barriers can be reduced, resulting in less red tape and lower trading costs. Companies that deal in multiple nations might reduce their compliance expenses by working with a single set of laws. In principle, this will lower the cost of goods and services.

Unlike a general partnership, in a limited partnership
Trava [24]

In a limited partnership:

The inactive partner has limited liability for the business's debts

Explanation:

In a general partnership all partners share equal financial responsibility for the firm's decisions.

This means that all partners are supposed to have equal liabilities but hat is not the case for limited ones.

In limited partnerships there is a general partner who owns most of the business and has most of the availability and the limited partner has pooled resources for the business but has very little personal responsibility to it.

This model is usually there when the firm needs some investors and the person running business is usually the owner only.

vovangra [49]

Answer:
