Answer: The correct answer is "C. can earn​ positive, negative, or zero economic profit in the short​ run, but will earn zero economic profit in the long run".

Explanation:  

In perfect competition we have a dynamic economy with technology and changing consumer tastes, we will always have some competitive industries with economic benefit and others with economic losses, as adjustments are made.

The economic benefits are forced to zero because companies enter without barriers to entry into the industry.

Losses are eliminated due to companies that leave the industry to obtain at least a normal profit elsewhere and  Resources are reallocated, from industries that have losses, to industries that have economic benefits.

Therefore, in the short term it is possible for companies to obtain extraordinary benefits, while in the long term the entry and exit of companies eliminates these exceptional benefits.

Ex-dividend stock price = Stock closing price - Stock dividend × (1 - tax rate)

= $105.64 - $7.75 × (1 - 19%)

= $105.64 - $7.75 × 0.81

ki77a [65]

Answer:

Annual deposit= $37,714.37

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The villa costs​ $500,000 today, and housing prices in Mexico are expected to increase by​ 6% per year. Manny and Irene want to make fifteen equal annual payments into an​ account, starting​ today, so there will be enough money to purchase the villa in fifteen years.

The account earns​ 10% per​ year.

First, we need to calculate the final value of the house with the following formula.

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 500,000*(1.06^15)=$1,198,279.1

Now, we can calculate the annual payments required:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (1,198,279.1*0.10)/[(1.10^15)-1]

A= $37,714.37
