Answer:
yield to maturity = 9.78%
Explanation:
yield to maturity = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / n]]
YTM = {$50 + [($1,000 - $913) / 2]} / [(($1,000 + $913) / 2]] = $93.50 / $956.50 = 0.09775 = 9.78%
The yield to maturity represents the total rate of return that an investor should receive if he/she holds a bond until it matures.
Answer:
Elastic demand
Unit elastic demand
Inelastic demand
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price.
Denand is elastic if when price is increased, the quantity demanded changes more than the increase in price. Quanitity demanded is more sensitive to changes in price.
If price is increased, the quantity demanded falls and as a result the total revenue earned by sellers falls.
The elasticity of demand is usually greater than 1 when demand is elastic.
Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional change on quantity demanded. The coefficient of elasticity is equal to one.
If price is increased, the quantity demanded changes by the same proportion so there's no change in total revenue of sellers.
Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.
Coefficient of elasticity is usually less than one.
If price is increased, there is little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result the revenue earned by sellers increase.

Answer:
c. feels the marginal benefit of an extra hour of studying exceeds the marginal cost of not playing basketball.
Explanation:
Russel made a choice to study for an hour instead of playing basketball. When making choices people weigh the benefits of an action against its opportunity cost.
Opportunity cost is the forgone alternative when we choose to do something.
In this instance Russell chose to study and the opportunity cost was to enjoy playing a basketball game.
For him to choose to study it means he saw the benefit of reading to be greater than the marginal cost of playing basketball. So he chose the most beneficial activity for him.
