Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Return on the stock = (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (capital gain ÷ investment )

= (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (Final price of the stock - initial price of the stock) ÷ Investment

10 = (1 ÷ 20) × 100 + ((final price - 20) ÷ 20) × 100

10 = 5 + 5 × ( final price - 20)

Final price = 21

Therefore, the stock price should increase by [(21 - 20) ÷ 20] × 100

                                                                            = 5%

So the study of pricing among the various detergent producing firms in the United States is under the purview of macro economics

Monetary policy focuses on the tools that are used to regulate the entire economy especially the Federal Reserve through the regulation of the activities of member financial institutions.

Fiscal Policy focuses on the activities of government to control its expenditure, tax rates and overall monitor or regulate the economy
