Answer:

The answer is: All the options are correct (I, II and III)

Explanation:

The larger the number of individuals (e.g. securities analysts, investors) who are informed about the price system of securities, the prices of securities will approach informational efficiency.

When the system approaches informational efficiency, you can determine which securities are riskier than others. Therefore you can price riskier securities so that they offer higher expected returns.

Answer:

a) Limited liability company

Explanation:

Considering the options given, as an advisor the form of business that I would recommend is: limited liability company that is a structure in which the owners are not responsible with their personal assets for the company's debts as the three owners are concerned about this risk.

I would not advise the other forms of business because the sole proprietorship is a firm that is run by one person, the general partnership is a structure in which two or more people agree to share unlimited liability which means that they share all their personal assets and are responsible for any debt the company has with them and the master limited partnership is a company that trades securities in the market.

An increase in the cost of fishing will lead to a decrease in the supply of fishes. This happens because the suppliers will be able to supply less at the same cost.

So the supply curve will move to the left. This leftward shift in the supply curve will cause the equilibrium price to increase and the equilibrium quantity to decrease.

All the other options would have caused the equilibrium quantity to increase either through increased demand or increased supply.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

take the payments over time payout

Explanation:

My personal opinion/advice would be to take the payments over time payout. There are many reasons for this, the first one being that most individuals are not used to receiving large sums of cash and usually end up wasting all the money as soon as they receive it, which usually does not occur if the payments are made over time. The second and more important reason is that if the payments are made over different years your would pay a much lesser amount on taxes every year that passes. This means that the even with the interest rate you would most likely have more overall money if you take the payments over time.
