The correct answer that fills the gap is: Cartels generate the highest joint profit, they want to avoid a price war that leads to profit erosion and P=MC, a cournot oligopoly will generate more profit than a bertrand oligopoly
Explanation:
In Bertrand's model, consumers will buy the goods of the company that offers the lowest price. From this it can be intuited that the Nash equilibrium will be the one in which both companies set the same price. For this reason it is not attractive, since they are competition and for some of the two it may not be profitable to decrease the sale price of their products.
Answer:
Voluntary consent:
In the current case there exists an absence of the voluntary consent with respect to Mr Jerome because of over the top impact and coercion. Mr Jerome relies totally upon Mr Philip because of which the last could impact him. Mr Jerome can show that he didn't genuinely consent to the agreement so he can either hold fast to the agreement or pull back. Mr Philip had a great deal of impact over the old Mr Jerome and consequently could beat his free will. Under the current conditions the agreement was gone into under an excessive amount of impact and is voidable.
Answer:
c. 5
Explanation:
L Q MPL (ΔinQ/ΔinL) VMPL
4 52
5 60 8 80
6 66 6 60
7 70 4 40
8 72 2 20
Note: Labour hired per day = L, Total product = Q, Marginal Product of labor=MPL, VMPL =Price*MPL
A firm will maximize the profit by increasing the number of labor as long as VMPL is higher than or equal to the wage rate. In this case, we observe that VMPL ($80)>wage rate ($75) for L=5 but VMPL ($60)<wage rate ($75) for L=6. So, the optimal number of labor to be hired is 5.
Answer:
The answer is $862.35
Explanation:
Explanation:
This is a semiannual paying coupon, meaning interest are paid twice in year.
N(Number of periods) = 30periods ( 15 years x 2)
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6 percent
PV(present value or market price) = ?
PMT( coupon payment) = $50
FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 30; I/Y = 6; PMT = 50; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= -862.35
Therefore, the market price of the bond is $862.35.
