Answer:
c. firms are free to enter and exit the market.
Explanation:
A monopolistically competitive market is a market in which there are a lot of organizations that sell products that are similar and it tends to be easy to enter and leave the industry. Because it is easy for a company to enter the market and there is a lot of competition, in the long run the economic profit is zero. According to this, the answer is that in the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because firms are free to enter and exit the market.
The other options are not right because a monopolistically competitive market has zero profits because of its low entry barriers and amount of competitors not because of government regulations or an illegal agreement between organizations to control competition. Also, in a monopolistically competitive market the products are similar.
The two sentences meant to persuade are the following: "This is something no other computer can do at present. This is the best buy on the market." These two sentences definitely compel the customers to buy or at least want to buy the item. The other sentences merely provide information to the customers but aren't decisive or directly decisive in the buyer's decision making.
Answer:
The correct answer is: whenever they over- or under-allocate resources to a project.
Explanation:
A government is considered to be wasteful by the economists if it over-allocates or under-allocates resources on a project. Whenever resources are not efficiently or optimally allocated it is considered wasteful.
In case resources are over-allocated, the reason is given that the excess resources could have been used somewhere else.
In case resources are under-allocated, the reason is given that the given resources will not be able to provide the desired output.

Answer:
The portfolio return is 12.6% and the portfolio SD is 15.4%. Thus, option a is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The expected return of a portfolio is the weighted average of the individual stock returns that form up the portfolio. Thus, the expected return for a two stock portfolio is,
Return of Portfolio = wA * rA + wB * rB
Where,
- w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio
- r represents the return of each stock
Portfolio return = 0.7 * 0.15 + 0.3 * 0.07 = 0.126 or 12.6%
The standard deviation of a two stock portfolio containing one risky and one risk free asset is the weight of risky asset in the portfolio multiplied by the standard deviation of the risky asset. The risk free asset has zero standard deviation.
Standard deviation of such a portfolio is,
Portfolio SD = w of risky asset * SD of risky asset
Portfolio SD = 0.7 * 0.22
Portfolio SD = 0.154 or 15.4%
