Answer:

Comment for statement A -  The firm must still compare the IRR with the opportunity cost of capital when using the IRR rule. Therefore, even with the IRR method, the   appropriate discount rate must still be specified.

Comment for statement B - There should be a higher discount rate on risky cash flows than the rate used to discount less risky cash flows.

Making use of the payback rule is equivalent to using the NPV rule with a zero discount rate for cash flows before the payback period and an infinite discount rate for cash flows thereafter.

Explanation:

a)

“I like the IRR rule. I can use it to rank projects without having to specify a discount rate”

The firm must still compare the IRR with the opportunity cost of capital when using the IRR rule. Therefore, even with the IRR method, the   appropriate discount rate must still be specified.

b.

“I like the payback rule. As long as the minimum payback period is short, the rule makes sure that the company takes no borderline projects. That reduces risk”

There should be a higher discount rate on risky cash flows than the rate used to discount less risky cash flows.

Making use of the payback rule is equivalent to using the NPV rule with a zero discount rate for cash flows before the payback period and an infinite discount rate for cash flows thereafter.

bazaltina [42]

Correct/Complete Question:

During a routine physical examination on an older female client, a nurse notes that the client is 5 feet, 3/8 inches (1.6 m) tall. The client states, "How is that possible? I was always 5 feet and 1/2? (1.7 m) tall." Which statement is the best response by the nurse?

a. "After age 40, height may show a gradual decrease as a result of spinal compression"

b. "After menopause, the body's bone density declines, resulting in a gradual loss of height."

c. "There may be some slight discrepancy between the measuring tools used."

d. "The posture begins to stoop after middle age."

Answer:

B, "After menopause, the body's density declines, resulting in a gradual loss of height."

Explanation:

The above statement in the answer section is the only response that answers the client's questions. This is because the statement answers properly, the question of why she has lost some inches in height.

Other options do not answer her question because the client records doesn't show spinal compression or any faults in measuring tools before that time.

i hope this helps.

When a movie theater charges a lower ticket price for senior citizens and/or students, the movie theater is engaging in_________
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

b) third-degree price discrimination.

Explanation:

The price gouging happens on prices when is carried out by the seller, goods, services or goods to a higher level than what is considered acceptable or fair and potentially considered unethically. This usually occurs after a demand or supply shock. Common examples include price increases for basic needs after hurricanes or other natural disasters.

First-degree discrimination (perfect price discrimination) appears when a business charges the maximum possible price for each unit consumed because prices are diverse among some units. In this case, where a company charges a different price for every good or service sold.

Second-degree price discrimination is the concept in which a company charges a different price when there are demands for different quantities consumed, such as quantity discounts on bulk purchases.

Third-degree price discrimination is the case in which a company charges a different price to different consumer groups. This is the type of most common type of price discrimination. If we see in the question there is given distinctive ticket price offers to senior citizens and/or students. That’s why we should choose third-degree price discrimination.

Economists say that individuals make decisions at the margin. What does its menas?
leva [86]

Answer:

When Economists say that humans make decisions at the margin they mean that decisions are made on the basis of the cost and benefit of getting an additional unit of a good/ service.

Marginal benefit refers to the additional utility that we will derive from consuming one extra unit of a good or service and factors in heavily into our decision making. We usually accept a decision if the Marginal benefit is higher or equal to the Marginal cost ( cost of the additional unit) of the good/service.

If the Marginal Cost is instead higher, the decision would most probably be cancelled.
