Ur at a 50:50 chance of getting right. Just guess :p
Explanation:
Over the past several decades, advances in technology, greatly reduced the cost of making computers which resulted in the decline of the equilibrium price of computers and also resulted in increased equilibrium quantity. The reduction in the computer prices also caused an increase in the consumer surplus.
computer price down -> equilibrium price down
computer price down -> equilibrium quantity up
computer price down -> consumer surplus up
The producer surplus increases due to increase in quantity and at the same time producer surplus decreases due to decrease in price.
computer price down -> producer surplus down
computer quantity up -> producer surplus up
A bachelor's degree (from Middle Latin baccalaureus) or baccalaureate (from Modern Latin baccalaureatus) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded by colleges and universities upon completion of a course of study lasting three to seven years (depending on institution and academic discipline).
Answer:
Required rate of return = 8%
Explanation:
<em>The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.
</em>
This model is represented as follows
D(1+g)/(r-g) = P
Price, D- dividend payable in now, ke- required rate of return, g- growth rate
35 = 1×(1.05)/ke-0.05
35 × (ke-0.05) = 1.05
35ke - 1.75
= 1.05
35Ke = 1.05 + 1.75
35ke = 2.8
ke= 2.8/35= 0.08
Ke = 0.08× 100 = 8%
Required rate of return = 8%
Answer:
keep producing in the short run but exit the industry or go out of business in the long run
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
A firm should shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost. But since the diner's price is greater than average variable cost, it should continue production.
A firm should exit the industry in the long run if price is less than average total cost. the diner's price is less than average total cost, so it should shut down in the long run
