You are a U.S. investor who purchased British securities for 2,340 pounds one year ago when the British pound cost $1.52. No div
Olin [163]

Answer:

Total Return = 10.45%

Explanation:

To calculate the return, we must first determine the appreciation in the value of the securities in terms of the US dollar.

The initial investment in terms of US dollar was of,

Initial Investment in USD = Investment in Pounds * Exchange rate

Initial Investment in USD = 2340 * 1.52

Initial Investment in USD = $3556.8

The current value of the investment in terms of USD is,

Current value of investment in USD = 2440 * 1.61

Current value of investment in USD = $3928.4

The formula to calculate total return is,

Total Return = (Current Value - Initial Value) / Initial Value

So, the total return based on US dollars was:

Total return  = (3928.4 - 3556.8) / 3556.8

Total Return = 0.10447 or 10.447% rounded off to 10.45%

Describe the shifts in the world economy over the past 30 years. What are the implications of these shifts for international bus
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

There has been a drastic change and shift in the world economy over the past 30 years.

There is a migration from a world where national economies were once self-contained entities, separated and isolated from each other due to some barriers like time zones, distance, government regulations, investments, language and business systems.

During the 1960s, there were four stylized facts that described the demographics of the global economy.

First, the U.S dominated the world economy and the world trade.

The second was the U.S dominance in the world foreign direct investment picture.

Thirdly, was the dominance of large, multinational U.S companies in the international business scene.

Although, the U.S is still dominating world's economy, but it's share of world output and world's export has declined since 1960.

It doesn't spell doom for U.S economy but rather reveals the growth in industralization in developing and growing economies like China, South Korea, India, etc.

Shifts in the world economy can be spotted in the shifts in multinational enterprises.

Two major trends are found in the demographics of the multinational enterprises.

One is seen in the rise of non-U.S multinationals especially the Japanese multinationals.

Secondly, is the emergence of small and medium-sized multinationals.

These shifts are seen in the fall of the Communist in Eastern Europe and the republic of the former Soviet Union.

The implications of these trends are similar to U.S and Britain. These had been the big players in the international scene. But that has changed. To win orders, the U.S and Britain have to compete with competitors around the world.

There is great opportunities for companies in Hong Kong to seriously pursue export market due to the decline in the influence of the U.S and Britain in the world economy.

We can say that we are moving to a world where barriers to cross-border trade and investments are declining, perceived distances are being eliminated due to the advances in transportation and technology and national economies are merging into interdependent, integrated global economic system.

The distinction between efficiency and equality can be described as follows:
larisa [96]

Answer:

The correct answer is the letter b. Efficiency refers to maximizing the size of the pie; equality refers to distributing the pie fairly among members of society.

Explanation:

Efficiency is about maximizing production while minimizing costs, ie producing as much as possible with available resources. Equality refers to the distribution of production, that is, the division into economically considered fair parts of what was produced among the agents of society. In the example, efficiency would be to produce the largest pie possible given the existing resources. Equality would be the distribution of the pie considered socially fair.
