Answer:

D) Anticompetitive behavior

Explanation:

Venus LLC is using or abusing of its market power to try to force its customers to buy its products in bundles. When a customer is forced to buy a product he/she doesn't want in order to purchase the product they are interested in is called horizontal tying. E.g. you want to buy a TV and you must  also buy a subscription to a cable operator.

In this case, even the companies that manufacture the complementary products are being pressured to carry on this unethical practice. Sometimes horizontal tying can be considered illegal, but not always. It depends on the specific details of each case.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The answer is D - No,Yes, No

Explanation:

The payback period is the time it will take the company to recover the initial investment given the estimated cash-flows over the life of the project. This payback period can be calculate even when the company does not yet know the required rate of return to use in its capital budgeting.

Net Present value is the sum of the discounted cash-flows over the life of the project, including the initial outlay. In order to calculate the discounted cash-flows, the required rate of return must be known, and therefore without it, the net present value of the project cannot be calculated.

The internal rate of return  is the rate that equates the sum of the discounted cash-flows to zero. In other words, irrespective of what the required rate of return is, one can calculate this rate that would result in a net present value of zero from the given initial outlay and  cash-flows expected over the life of the project.

natita [175]

Answer: The most correct Option is option A) is problems in emerging market economies as a result of bond market instability.

Explanation: The question explains why it has been difficult for a nation to control the value of it's money, so as to achieve a fixed exchange rate with other currencies. This is because the bond market is not stable. This bond market is what the central bank uses to control the flow of money into the economy, to avoid depreciation or inflation of the economy. Because the market is not stable due to the rate of bond demand is not stable. This will make it difficult for the central bank to keep a fixed rate of MPR (monetary policy rate) and loans.

Even though all the options are related to the issue, but option A. is directly linked to the question. This can be seen by someone, that the central banks are having brain drain, because it is one of the major issue all central banks are facing. It can also be seen as a reason why money fluctuate. It can also be seen that nation's has ignored to Source more form of regulating money. But due to the fact that bond market instability is the major problem leading to all this. Option A. still remains the answer.
