Answer:
The invaders were able to govern the more advanced civilizations because they adopted most of the conquered civilizations' customs, rules of governance, and even languages and religion.
For example, in the case of the Germanic tribes that conquered the Western Roman Empire, the rulers adopted, one by one, the religion of the Roman Empire: Christianity, more specifically, the Roman Catholic variant.
They also began to use the language of the Empire: Latin, for ecclessiastical and political matters, and while political institutions did change a lot, some of the political institutions of the Empire did survive in the sucessor states that the Germanic rulers carved out of the Roman territory.
Answer:
Dividend yield is 4.79%
Cost of equity is 11.64%
Explanation:
The dividend yield on Krell Industries share price is the dividend of $1.09 divided by the price of the share today of $22.77
dividend yield=$1.09/$22.77=4.79%
The equity cost of capital can be calculated from the share price formula given below by changing the subject of the formula to cost of equity,r.
stock price=Do*(1+g)/r-g
Do is the dividend paid this year of $1.09
g is the dividend growth of dividend which is computed thus:
g=share price at end of the year-share price now/share price now
g=($24.33-$22.77)/$22.77=6.85%
r is the unknown
stock price is $24.33
24.33=1.09*(1+6.85%)/(r-6.85%)
24.33=1.164665
/r-6.85%
r=(1.164665
/24.33)+6.85%
r=11.64%

In order words, the project would cost society more than society would benefit from it so there is no need to embark on such a project.
Answer: Trade Deficit ($10 Billion).
Explanation:
C=40+0.8Y
Ig=$40 billion
X=$20 billion
M=$30 billion
where,
Y - GDP
C - Consumption
Ig - Gross investment
X - Exports
M - Imports
Balance of trade or Trade balance = Exports - Imports
Since, Imports are greater than the exports, so the nation is experiencing a trade deficit.
Trade deficit = Imports - Exports
= $30 - $20
= $10 billion
