Andrej [43]

Answer:

The present value of the future earnings is $51,981,214.36

Explanation:

The present value of the earning can be calculated by discounting the earnings for the next five years along with calculating the terminal value of earnings at the end of the five years when the growth rate in earnings becomes constant and discounting it back to the present value.

Taking the value in millions,

Present Value = 1 * (1+0.3) / (1+0.08)  +  1 * (1+0.3)^2 / (1+0.08)^2  +  

1 * (1+0.3)^3 / (1+0.08)^3  +  1 * (1+0.3)^4 / (1+0.08)^4  +  1 * (1+0.3)^5 / (1+0.08)^5  + [( 1 * (1+0.3)^5 * (1+0.02) / (0.08 - 0.02)) / (1+0.08)^5]

Present value = $51.98121436 million or $51,981,214.36

A drought decreases the supply of agricultural products, which means that at any given price a lower quantity will be supplied;
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

supply curve to the right.

Explanation:

A drought decreases the supply of agricultural products, which means that at any given price a lower quantity will be supplied; conversely, especially good weather would shift the supply curve to the right. Drought refers to a period characterized by little or no rainfall in a geographical location over a specific period of time. When there's a drought, the production of agricultural products will be very much affected, thereby causing a decrease in the quantity of farm products.

On the other hand, a good weather would cause an increase in the quantity of farm products and as a result of this, the supply curve would shift rightward because there's enough product to meet the customer's demands or needs.
