the american free enterprise system is based on private property, profit, competition and consumer choice. so govt role is to make sure those conditions are there; e.g. there is fair competition, regulate monopolies so consumer will have choices, enforce laws protecting property rights n so on.

i would believe that the government plays an important role in a market economy As we saw in our discussion of competitive markets, a free enterprise system is largely self-regulating. Therefore, government plays a limited, but important, role, allowing individuals to make most of the economic decisions.

Luda [366]

Answer:

The value of the stock at start-up = $67.5

Explanation:

According to the dividend valuation model , the current price of a stock is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return

This principle can be applied as follows:

The value of stock today is the present value of the future return discounted at the required rate of return

The return can be computed as the ROE × Book value of share

Return = 15%× 30 =4.5

Price of stock today = D× (1+g)/r-g

D= current return, g- growth rate, r-required rate of return

DATA: D= 4.5, g= 5%, r= 12%

PV = 4.5× (1.05)/(0.12-0.05)

= 67.5

The value of the stock at start-up = $67.5

Nutech Corp. is expecting the following cash flows—$79,000, $112,000, $164,000, $84,000, and $242,000—over the next five years.

Alja [10]

Answer:

$429,560

Explanation:

Present value will be calculated through the PV formula,

$PV = \frac{C1}{1+r} + \frac{C2}{(1+r)^{2} } + \frac{C3}{(1+r)^{3}} + \frac{C4}{(1+r)^{4}} + \frac{C5}{(1+r)^{5}}$

r = 15%

C1 = $79,000 ,C2 = $112,000 ,C3 = $164,000 ,C4 = $84,000 ,C5 = $242,000

Substituting the values in the formula,

$PV = \frac{79,000}{1.15} + \frac{112,000}{(1.15)^{2} } + \frac{164,000}{(1.15)^{3}} + \frac{84,000}{(1.15)^{4}} + \frac{242,000}{(1.15)^{5}}$

PV = 68,695.66 + 84,688 + 107,838 + 48,030.2 + 120,338.14

PV = $429,560

The present value of the cash flows of Nutech Corp. over the next five years is $429,560.

Lynn regularly works a 40-hour week and earns $9 per hour. She receives time-and-a-half pay for each hour of overtime she works.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Her regular gross pay is $360

Explanation:

Regular gross pay is that pay which the person earn on daily basis or it is a fixed amount which he gets after completing a month.

In the question, we have to find out the regular gross pay which includes the daily earning of a person

So, her regular gross pay is equal to

= number of hours × rate per hour

= 40 × $9

= $360

We don't include overtime wages as it is not included in regular gross pay. So, it is ignored.

Hence, her regular gross pay is $360

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Inferior good

Explanation:

Inferior goods are those type or the kind of goods whose demand falls or decline when the income of the person or customer or individual rises or increases.

In short, the demand of the inferior goods is related inversely to the customer or person income.

So, in this case, the person bought 10 frozen pizzas per month, but when the person start earning, then the person would not buy the frozen pizzas. The frozen pizza will be inferior good for the person as the income of the person will rise.
