Answer:

This statement is true.

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market, there are a large number of firms in the market. There is no barriers to entry to exit in the market. The firms are producing homogenous products.

The firms in this market will earn positive profits in the short run as in short run, the firms can't enter the market.

In the long run, though the firms will be attracted to the positive profits earned by the existing firms to enter the market.

This will cause the supply in the market to increase, this increase in the supply will shift the supply curve to the left. This leftward shift in the supply curve will reduce the price of the product.

The market share and profits of the individual firms will decline. This will continue till the profits are reduced to zero.

The treasurer of a major U.S. firm has $29 million to invest for three months. The interest rate in the United States is .29 per
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Check the following calculations.

Explanation:

The U.S. firm has $29 million

Investment is for three months

And the interest rate in the United States is .29 percent per month

The value of the investment if the money is invested in U.S

= $29 million *(1+ 0.29%) ^3

= $29.2530 million

The interest rate in Great Britain is .33 percent per month.

The spot exchange rate is £.629

And the three-month forward rate is £.632.

The value of the investment if the money is invested in Great Britain

Value after spot exchange = $29 million *(£.629/$1) = £ 18.241 million

Value after three months interest earning = £ 18.241*(1+0.33%) ^3

= £ 18.4222 million

Exchanging again in US $ after 3 months

= £ 18.4222 *($1/£ .632) = $29.1490 million

Therefore the value of the investment if the money is invested in Great Britain is $29.1490 million.

The value of investment will be more if the money is invested in U.S.
