You are the manager of a firm that produces products X and Y at zero cost. You know that different types of consumers value your
arlik [135]

Answer and Explanation:

a)

If you charge $40 for X then everyone will buy as everyone is willing to pay atleast $40. this means all three groups buy that is 3*1000 buyers.So profit from X = 3000*40= $120,000

And since everyone is willing to willing to pay atleast $60 for Y again all three groups will buy so profit from Y =3000*60=$180,000

profits=$300,000

b)

If you charge $90 and $160 for X and Y respectively you will have only 1000 buyers for each product as others are unwilling to pay this much.

So profits = 1000*90 + 1000*160=$250,000

c)

for a bundle of X and Y buyers are willing to pay a total of $150, $210 and $200 across the three categories.

So everyone will buy a bundle of 1 X and 1 Y.

profits = 150*3000= $450,000

d)

If you charge $210 only the second will buy as they are willing to pay that much so profits =1000*210=$210,000

Also by selling X at $90 group 1 will buy X; profits=1000*90=$90,000

and by selling Y at $160 group 3 will buy Y; profits=1000*160=$160,000

total profits =$460,000

Suppose the fixed interest rate on a loan is​ 5.75% and the rate of inflation is expected to be​ 4.25%. The real interest rate i
Alex

Answer:

Lenders loose and borrowers gain

Explanation:

Whenever inflation increases the value of money falls and technically erodes interest rates (hence real interest rate falls although nominal rate stays the same)

In the scenario, if the inflation rate rises to 5.5%, then the real interest rate falls further from 1.5% to (5.75% - 5.5%) 0.25%, demonstrating that the lender is loosing further.

Contrarily, the borrower will technically be paying lesser interest to the lender because he will be paying lesser money in value to the lender both in terms of interest and principal
