Answer:

higher

buyers to offer higher prices

Explanation:

When there's a shortage in the market, demand exceeds supply. A shortage can be caused either by an increase in demand or a fall in supply. When there's a shortage prices rise.

To curb the shortage, buyers would offer an higher price. This would either increase supply or decrease demand and equilibrium would be restored.

I hope my answer helps you.

You buy a seven-year bond that has a 5.25% current yield and a 5.25% coupon (paid annually). In one year, promised yields to mat
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

HPR = 0.371%

Explanation:

we must first determine the price of the bond in 1 year:

present value of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 6.25%)⁶ = $695.07

present value of coupon payments = $52.50 x 4.87894 (PV annuity factor, 6.25%, 6 periods) = $256.14

market price in 1 year = $951.21

since you bought the bond at face value (market value = YTM), the the holding period return is:

HPR = [(ending price - actual price) + dividends received] / actual price

HPR = [($951.21 - $1,000) + $52.50] / $1,000 = $3.71 / $1,000 = 0.371%

Ugo [173]

Answer:

C) The theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

The theory of Comparative Advantage is a theory of international trade and it comes into effect in a situation where the <u>opportunity cost of producing a good or offering by a service by a country is lower than that of other countries. </u>

Specifically, to understand the theory of comparative advantage the opportunity cost of production or offering a service has to be measured in terms of the trade off between those countries. It simply means when a country has the comparative advantage then it derives more benefits from other countries buying its products as compared to buying their products and vice versa.

In the question, the European Union has the Comparative advantage over South Africa because the trade-off between buying South Africa's edible fruits and nuts and selling other products to South Africa benefits the European countries.

European countries derive more benefits because South Africa buys their goods at a cost higher than it takes them to produce while they buy at the normal cost from South Africa. The <u>trade-off benefits Europe </u>

What makes McDonald's successful in business?
faust18 [17]
McDonalds is a fast food restaurant (I don't it's actually called a restaurant) and it has to best cheeseburgers and a slide. Lots of people bring their children there and the kids LOVE IT (I hope) so it is successful. Plus, there is almost 100 McDonalds in every City.
In 30 years, I think McDonalds is still gonna be in business because it has been successful for many, many years and I think if it goes out of business:
1. The world will be disappointed
2. it's impossible because it's 24/7.

I hope this helped!
