77julia77 [94]

Answer: a) an increase in the Equilibrium price of "regular" cars.

Explanation:

It is stated that the automobile companies use their inputs to make either the hybrid cars or the regular cars.

If the price of the Hybrid cars rises sharply, Automobile companies will make more Hybrid cars so as to take advantage of the situation and make more profit.

This would reduce the amount of inputs that they have available for regular cars and so they will make less regular cars.

As this supply of regular cars decreases,the supply curve will shift to the left and the price will increase to cater for this reduction in supply.

A 20-year maturity bond with par value $1,000 makes semiannual coupon payments at a coupon rate of 8%. Find the bond equivalent

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The bond equivalent yield to maturity = 8.52%

The effective annual yield to maturity of the bond = 8.71%

Explanation:

Here, we start with calculating the yield to maturity YTM using the financial calculator

To find the YTM, we need to put the following values in the financial calculator:

N = 20*2 = 40;

PV = -950;

PMT = [8%/2]*1000 = 40;

FV = 1000;

Press CPT, then I/Y, which gives us 4.26

So, Periodic Rate = 4.26%

Bond equivalent yield = Periodic Rate * No. of compounding periods in a year

= 4.26% * 2 = 8.52%

effective annual yield rate = [1 + Periodic Rate]^(No. of compounding periods in a year) - 1

= [1 + 0.0426]^2 - 1 = 1.0871 - 1 = 0.0871, or 8.71%

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

a. monopolistic elements in the economy will prevent an immediate sharp fall in prices as a result of decreasing demand

Explanation:

When there is recession the price of the factor goes down and with that, the insufficient demand for a certain good or services is eliminated. The reasoning is that the decrease in prices stimulates demand and adjust the market.

Keynes among other economist consider that unemployment increase during recessions because the nominal wages rate do not fall. As the union and worker do not want to see their wage decrease. Same is applied to prices which makes then inflexible in a downward direction.

While "supply creates its own demand" is "Says's Law" which is rejected in keynes main book "The general theory"
