In the Republic of Sildavia, a market basket of goods and services cost $130 in 2009, $140 in 2010, and $160 in 2011. Based on t

yarga [219]

Answer:

23.07%

Explanation:

For computing the inflation rate first we have to determine the price index for 2011 which is shown below:

Price index for 2011 is

= (market basket of goods and services cost in year 2011) ÷ (market basket of goods and services cost in year 2009) × 100

= ($160) ÷ ($130) × 100

= 123.07%

Now the inflation rate is

= (Price index for 2011 - price index for 2009) ÷ (price index for 2009) × 100

= (123.07 - 100) ÷ (100) × 100

= 23.07%

And, the price index for 2009 is

= ($130) ÷ ($130) × 100

= 100%

A t-shirt maker would be willing to supply 75 t-shirts per day at a price of $18.00 each. At a price of $20.00, the t-shirt make

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

c. 2.71, and supply is elastic.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the price elasticity of supply is shown below:

Price elasticity of supply = (Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price)

where,

Change in quantity supplied is

= Q2 - Q1

= 100 t-shirts - 75 t-shirts

= 25 t-shirts

And, an average of quantity supplied is

= (100 + 75) ÷ 2

= 87.5

Change in price is

= P2 - P1

= $20 - $18

= $2

And, the average of price is

= ($20 + $18) ÷ 2

= 19

So, after solving this, the price elasticity of supply is 2.71

A primary consideration for a potential franchisee is that the capital required to become a franchisee will likely be:

emmasim [6.3K]

I would say perhaps such capital would likely be non-refundable which would have to be balanced with the knowledge that since it is a franchise then it is likely that it would be a business that iswell known and well established ie with a good name and good products so that would increase chances of success given a hard working, industrious franchisee and a good location, presuming that the franchisor will help with the setting up of the business.

Assume that a three-year Treasury note (T-note) has no maturity premium, and that the real risk-free rate of interest is 3 perce

erik [133]

Answer: 12%

Explanation:

First find the Inflation premium:

= Nominal risk free rate - Real risk free rate

= 13% - 3%

= 10%

Plug it into the following equation:

Inflation premium = { (2 * expected average inflation rate over the next two years) + Inflation rate for third year) } / 3

10% = { (2 * 9%) + 1₃} / 3

3 * 10% = { (2 * 9%) + 1₃}

30% = 18% + I₃

I₃ = 30% - 18%

I₃ = 12%
