Answer:

The answer is: B) Market B

Explanation:

Deadweight loss refers to an economic loss caused by market inefficiencies.

Market inefficiencies occur when supply and demand are not in equilibrium. In market A, the tax will barely affect the equilibrium quantity, so the deadweight loss will not be as large as in market B where the equilibrium quantity will be severely affected.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

A. $800

B. $1,000

C. a. The quantity of money demanded decreases as the interest rate rises

Explanation:

A. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 8%

Opportunity Cost for 8% interest rate=$8%*$10,000

B. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10%

Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate =10%*$10,000

Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate = $1,000

Therefore the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10% will be $1,000

C. Based on the information given the previous analysis suggest about for money: THE QUANTITY OF MONEY DEMANDED DECREASES AS THE INTEREST RATE RISES.

Serjik [45]

Answer:A and C

Interest is compounded in savings accounts and me to reduce the amount that I must deposit today and still have my desired $1 million on the day I retire then I should either, invest in a different account paying a higher rate of interest meaning the invested amount will be compounded at a higher rate thus my initial investment amount requirement reduced.

Komok [63]

Answer:

correct option is c. $2.51

Explanation:

given data

strike price of $30 = $2

underlying stock price = $29

dividend = $0.50

risk-free rate = 10%

solution

we use here pit call parity  that is

c - p = s - k e^{-rt} -D    .....................1

S is current price and c is call premium and r is rate and t is time

so price of put p will be

p = c-s + k e^{-rt} + D

put here value and we get

p  = 2 -29 + 30  e^{-0.1*0.5} + 0.5  e^{-0.1*2/12}  + 0.5 e^{-0.1*5/12}

p  = 2.508

p = $2.51

so correct option is c. $2.51
