The correct option is <u>limiting the types of goods and services produced. </u>

When discussing comparative and absolute advantage,<u> limiting the types of goods and services produced</u> describes the best specialization.  

Further Explanation:

Comparative absolute advantage:  

In-comparative advantage, a country is making any product, and comparatively at less cost than the other country. The country should make that specific product in which they can make the product cheaper than other countries. If a country had a specialization in making a product then they will make than product and this is the comparative advantage to them.

Absolute advantage:

The absolute advantage refers to in which it allows a country to produce or make those products in which they are efficient and effective of making the specific products.

(B)

Limiting the types of goods and services produced: This option is correct.

The absolute and comparative theories are about making of products efficiently, and effectively. If one country is sufficient and effective in making a specific product, then that country should make that product to reduce the cost of production, time, and labour. Basically to limit the different types of goods and services produced, and focusing on making a specific specialized product by dividing the distribution of production in such a way, if one country is efficient in making a specific product, that country will make that specific product and then they will export that product, and can import other products, in which other countries are efficient in making of the product.

(C)

Targeting specific consumers and retailers: This option is incorrect.

The absolute and comparative theories are about making of products efficiently, and effectively. If one country is sufficient and effective in making a specific product, then that country should make that product to reduce the cost of production, time, and labour.

(D)

Producing certain items for specific market segments: This option is incorrect.

The absolute and comparative theories are about making of products efficiently, and effectively. If one country is sufficient and effective in making a specific product, then that country should make that product to reduce the cost of production, time, and labour.

The answer is: limiting the types of goods and services produced

When a certain country decided to do a specialization, it will utilize most of their time and effort to one specific sectors. These sectors usually be chosen because that country had a certain competitive advantage  over another country due to the resources that they possess.

For example, Malaysia is conducting a specialization in latex related products. They choose to do this because they possess the environment that is perfect for  latex tree to grow. Currently, they are among the top three latex producers in the world.

What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to (a) $44;
gayaneshka [121]

Suppose that Intel currently is selling at $40 per share. You buy 500 shares using $15,000 of your own money, borrowing the remainder of the purchase price from your broker. The rate on the margin loan is 8%.

What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of Intel immediately changes to (a) $44; (b) $40; (c) $36?

Answer:

Initial worth of brokerage account = 500 × $40 = $20,000

a). if the price changes to $44, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $44 = $22,000

∴ percentage increase = (22,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 10% increase.

b). if the price changes to $40, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $40 = $20,000

∴ percentage increase = (20,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 0 or no increase.

c). if the price changes to $36, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $36 = $18,000

∴ percentage increase = (18,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 10% decrease

motikmotik

Answer:

4.76%

Explanation:

The requirement in this question is determining the discount rate which gives the same present value in both cases since discount rates discount future cash flows to present value terms.

PV of a pertuity=annual cash flow/discount rate

PV of a pertuity=$17,000/r

PV of ordinary annuity=annual cash flow*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

PV of ordinary annuity=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r

$17,000/r=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r

multiply boths side by r

17000=30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18

divide both sides by 30000

17000/30000=1-(1+r)^-18

0.566666667=1-(1+r)^-18

by rearraging the equation we have the below

(1+r)^-18=1-0.566666667

(1+r)^-18=0.433333333

divide indices on both sides by -18

1+r=(0.433333333)^(1/-18)

1+r=1.047554315

r=1.047554315-1

r=4.76%
