dimaraw [331]

Answer: E.When there are so many industry rivals that the impact of any one company's actions is spread thinly across all industry members

If all the assumptions of perfect competition hold, why would firms in such an industry have little incentive to carry out techn
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1. In a Perfectly Competitive Market firms will always copy the products of other firms to make profit which will drive down the Profitability of the original firm. If firms in a Perfect Competition engage in Research and Development for new products and Technology, they would be incurring a massive expense on their part because such undertakings are not cheap. Were they to succeed and come up with a new product, that Product would be copied within a short period of time by their competitors who did not put up the amount of Investment that the original company did. This is what firms in Perfectly Competitive Markets are trying to avoid.

b. Government Intervention in the form  of enforcing Patents, Copyright Protection and Intellectual Property will be needed. If firms can be sure that when they come with a new product, their rights to it will be protected in such a way that they make enough returns from it, they will engage in these R&D endeavors to be able to have an edge over their competitors in the market.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

$10,000 divided by the future amount of an ordinary  annuity of 40 payments of $1 each at an interest rate of  3% per period.

Explanation:

given data

semiannual payments = $10,000

time period = 20 year

annual rate = 6%

solution

The question has future value because it calculates the periodic amount of the annual amount that must be invested to produce the given amount in the future.

Accordingly, the appropriate factor showing the effect of compound interest is derived from the formula for the future value of the common annuity of $1

This factor multiplied by the periodic payment is equal to the future amount. If the payment is unknown, the future amount of the regular annuity formula can be calculated by dividing the future amount ($ 10,000) by the appropriate factor obtained.

when payment is made semiannually for 20 years,

then 40 compounding period is involved.

If the interest rate is 6% the semiannual interest rate is 3%.
