Answer:

eliminated due to firms entering the industry

Explanation:

In the long run , monpolistically competitive firms earn zero economic profit due to entry of firms into the industry.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a) 0.1728

b) 0.09183

c) 0.7354

d) $ 222.25

Explanation:

Given

mean = $\mu$ = $367

Standard deviation = $\sigma$ =$88

Cost of automobile repair is normally distributed.

a) We have to find P( x > 450 )

P( x > 450 ) = 1 - P( x <= 450 )

Using excel function, P( x <= x ) = NORMDIST (x, $\mu$ , $\sigma$ , 1 )

P( x > 450 ) = 1 - NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 )

= 1 - 0.8272 = 0.1728

P( x > 450 ) = 0.1728

b) P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( x < 250 ) = 0.09183

c) P( 250 < x < 450 ) = P( x <450 ) - P( x < 250 )

P( x <450 ) = NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.8272

P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.8272 - 0.09183 = 0.7354

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.7354

d) We have P( X < a ) = 0.05

We have to find a.

Using Excel, = NORMINV ( Probability, $\mu$ , $\sigma$ )

a = NORMINV ( 0.05 , 367, 88 ) = 222.2529

Cost = $ 222.25

Does a business neceşsarily have obligations to anyone<br> besides stockholders?

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

of course. Business have obligations and duties towards many parties. we call these people "stake holders". in other words, they are either interested in the business and activities or are effected by the business activities.

for an example, the community and the environment the business operates in are stakeholders and the firm has responsibility to ensure an environmental friendly production and practices are carried out by the firm.

Government and tax authorities are another example. firm has to make sure that the required disclosures are made and proper taxes are paid timely.

Potential investors are another example, the company has to make sure that they disclose all the relevant and material information that may give signals about the companies future and its direction.
