Answer: Option B and C

         

Explanation: In simple words, oligopoly refers to the market structure in which there are few firms operating at a huge level and selling products that are close but not absolute substitutes of each other.

     The high level of investment and too much of legal formalities makes it difficult to entry in such industries. Firms in such industries produce identical goods thus they do not compete in the amaretto with respect to price.

the firms operate their market on the basis of non price factors such as advertisements but still are mutually interdependent on each other as a minor decrease in price of other can deregulate the demand in the whole industry. Automobile sector is one the primary examples of oligopoly.

A firm has estimated the following demand function for its product:
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

(i) Q=300

(ii) Elasticity of Demand=-3.33 (elastic)

(iii) Income Elasticity= 2.5 (normal good)

(iv) Advertising Elasticity: 1.5

Explanation:

The Demand function is given by

Q=100-5P+5I+15A

(1) To solve (i) we need to replace P = 200, I = 150, and A = 30 in the demand equation:

Q=100-5(200)+5(150)+15(30)=300

(2) To find the price elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with price) we use the point price elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}\frac{P}{Q}

From the above equation we get: \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}=-5

Replacing in the elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=-5\frac{200}{300}=|-3.33|>1

in absolute terms the elasticity is bigger than one so it is an elastic demand.

(3) For income elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with income), we proceed similarly as above. But the derivative is respect to income

\eta_{Income}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta I}\frac{I}{Q}=5\frac{150}{300}=2.5>1[/tex]

Which is bigger than one, denoting this is a normal good because it's bigger than one.

(4) Advertising elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with expenditures in advertising), we proceed as before

\eta_{advertising}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta A}\frac{A}{Q}=15\frac{30}{300}=1.5

You want to buy a new sports coupe for $84,500, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you an APR of 5.2 percent fo
just olya [345]

Answer:

Ans.  Your monthly payments will be  $1,602.37  ; The effective annual rate is 5.33%

Explanation:

Hi, first, we need to convert this APR rate into an effective monthly rate, that is, dividing 0.052/12 =0.00433 (or 0.4333%). Then we need to use the following equation and solve for A.

PresentValue=\frac{A((1+r)^{n}-1) }{r(1+r)^{n} }

Where:

PresentValue= 84,500

A = periodic payments (the monthly payments that you need to make)

r = 0.004333333

n=60 months

So, let´s solve for A.

84,500=\frac{A((1+0.004333333)^{60}-1) }{0.004333333(1+0.004333333)^{60} }

84,500=\frac{0.296201791}{0.005616874} A

84,500=A(52.73427328)

A= 1,602.37

Now, in order to find the effective annual rate, we need to use the following equation.

r(EffectiveAnnual)=((1+r(EffectiveMonthly))^{12} -1

Notice that to find an effective rate you have to start with another effective rate, otherwise it won´t work. So everything should look like this.

r(EffectiveAnnual)=((1+0.004333333))^{12} -1=0.0533

Meaning that the equivalent effective annual rate to 5.2% APR is 5.33% effective annual.

Best of luck.

In the management process, if the planning is perfect, then there is no need for controlling. 
madreJ [45]

The assumption that if planning is perfect there is no need for controlling is false.

This is because controlling is a very vital and important part of

management. Controlling helps to organize the various factors needed in

the completion of a project. This helps to prevent and reduce mistakes to

the barest minimum that may arise as we are all prone to errors.

A management process without any form of control will result in the target

and exact instructions not being met or adhered to.

Identify the type of unemployment for the following scenarios:
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

1) b)Frictional

2) c) Cyclical

3) a) Structural

Explanation:

1) Caroline just graduated from college and is looking for a full-time position with an investment banking firm.

FRICTIONAL.

This is a situation of frictional unemployment, which occurs when there is mobility of labor and workers. It occurs in a natural situation, at the time when individuals are looking for a job.

2) Frances is a real estate agent. House sales in her area have declined because the region has been going through a recession. She has no clients and is currently looking for a new full-time job.

CICLYCAL.  

This is a situation that occurs when the economy of a locality cannot sustain the condition of full employment, it can occur in a situation of slow economic growth or certain setbacks.

3) Antonio recently lost his job as a waiter at a local restaurant. A recent increase in the minimum wage keeps local employers from adding more of the low-skill positions for which he qualifies, so he has been unable to find work. He continues to look for a job, but he's considering going back to school for vocational training.

STRUCTURAL.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is not a sufficient number of jobs in a given sector, which can result from several different variables, such as the incompatibility between the vacancies available and the skills of workers.
