Answer:
PV = $78.46153 rounded off to $78.46
Explanation:
A perpetuity is an unlimited series of cash flows that are of constant amount and occur after equal intervals of time. As they are unlimited in number, we say that they are perpetual. A perpetual preferred stock can also be said to be in form of a perpetuity as it pays a constant dividend after equal intervals of time. To calculate the price of the preferred stock, we use the present value of perpetuity formula which is,
PV = Cash flow / r
Where,
- r is the required rate of return
PV = 5.1 / 0.065
PV = $78.46153 rounded off to $78.46
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": be a straight line.
Explanation:
The Production Possibility Frontier (<em>PPF</em>) aims to determine what the maximum production would be using finite factors. Typically, the higher production of a good implies lowering the production of another. The PPF is represented by a graph with a vertical "X" axis and a horizontal "Y" axis for easiness in understanding.
Thus, if the factors for production were perfectly adaptable, the PPF curve will display a straight line in a graph.
Answer:
there is no deadweight loss.
Explanation:
In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.
This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.
Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;
1. Perfect information.
2. No barriers, it is typically free.
3. Equilibrium price and quantity.
4. Many buyers and sellers.
5. Homogeneous products.
Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.
Hence, if equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market then, there is no deadweight loss i.e a loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services.
