Answer:
d) The change to the equilibrium price of French chocolate souffle is ambiguous and the equilibrium quantity of French chocolate souffle falls
Explanation:
Inferior goods are those goods whose demand falls with the rise in the income of the consumer.
As per the given case, French chocolate souffle is an inferior good. When income of the consumer rises, his demand for French chocolate souffle will fall.
Similarly, when producers of such an inferior good decrease, the supply of French chocolate souffle shall fall.
With respect to the original equilibrium level, the demand curve shall experience a leftward shift i.e decrease whereas the supply curve too experiences a leftward shift i.e supply falls.
At the new equilibrium level, definitely the equilibrium quantity shall fall, but the change in equilibrium price cannot be ascertained as per the given information.
Answer:
The correct answer is option D.
Explanation:
The ethical principles in business are not much different from the ethical principle in general. They are not separately based on some other special rules to judge business conduct. They are judged from the society's perspective of right and wrong.
There are two schools of ethical principles, namely, ethical universalism and ethical relativism. Universalism believe that the concept of right and wrong are universal. While, on the other hand, relativism school believes that they vary according to local customs.
Though universal ethical principles from different societies form a kind of informal contract that all individuals and organizations have to follow.
Failure to observe these principles not only corrode company's reputation but have also other adverse effects and costs involved.
Answer:
A. ($16,000)
Explanation:
The computation of the expected value of return equal to
= (Higher return × probability rate) - (Less return - probability rate)
= ($20,000 × 70%) - ($100,000 × 30%)
= $14,000 - $30,000
= - $16,000
For computing the correct value we have to deduct the tighter money conditions from the normal conditions.
D. You are willing and able to buy the good at the given price
Answer:
6.78%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Total return i.e nominal rate = 15% = 0.15
Real return = 7.7% = 0.077
Now,
Inflation rate =
- 1
on substituting the respective values, we get
Inflation rate =
- 1
or
Inflation rate = [ 1.15 ÷ 1.077 ] - 1
or
Inflation rate = 0.0678
or
Inflation rate = 0.0678 × 100% = 6.78%
