Answer:
Natural monopoly
Explanation:
A natural monopoly refers to a type of monopoly that occurs when the start-up costs or infrastructural costs are high or economies of scale in an industry are very powerful in such a way that only the largest supplier in the industry which is usually the first supplier in the market has a great advantage over potential competitors and therefore becomes the only supplier in the industry.
On the long-run average cost (LRAC) curve, a natural monopoly exists when the quantity demanded is less than the minimum quantity that is required to be at the bottom of the LRAC curve.
Therefore, a <u>natural monopoly</u> exists when the quantity demanded in the market is less than the quantity at the bottom of the long-run average cost curve.
Answer:
16.59%
Explanation:
First we look at the formula which to determine the future value of the security and then work back to determine the annual return in terms of percentage
Future Value = Present Value x (1 +i)∧n
where i = the annual rate of return
n= number of years or period
We then plug the given figures into the equation as follows
we already know Present value to be $10,000 and the future value to be $100,000 and the number of years to be 15
Therefore, the implied annual return or yield on the investment is
100,000 = 10,000 x (1+i)∧15
(1+i)∧15 = 100,000/10,000 = 10
1 + i = (10∧(1/15))=1.165914
i= 1.165914-1
= 0.1659
= 16.59%
<span>The Gramm-leach-Bliley Act requires banks and financial institutions to alert customers of their policies and practices in disclosing customer information. The act was created in 1999.
