Suppose the rate of return on a 10-year T-bond is 5.00% and that on a 10-year Treasury Inflation Protected Security (TIP) is 2.1

0%. Suppose further that the expected average rate of inflation over the next 10 years is 2.0%, that the MRP on a 10-year T-bond is 0.9%, that no MRP is required on TIPs, and that no liquidity premiums are required on any T-bonds. Given this data, what is the real risk free rate of return, r*? Disregard cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average.

Answer:

2.06%

Explanation:

in order to determine the real risk free rate of return we can use the following formula:

real risk free rate = [(1 + T-bond yield - T-bond maturity risk premium) / (1 + inflation rate)] -1

real risk free rate = [(1 + 5% - 0.9%) / (1 + 2%)] -1 = (1.041 / 1.02) - 1 = 1.0206 - 1 = 0.0206 = 2.06%

Both firms in a Cournot duopoly would enjoy lower profits if:
daser333 [38]

Answer:

each firm simultaneously increased output above the Nash equilibrium level.

Explanation:

A French mathematician, Antoine Augustine Cournot developed the Cournot duopoly in his economic model “Researches into the mathematical principles of the theory of wealth”, of 1838.

Cournot duopoly also known as the Cournot competition, is an economic model where two (2) business firms having identical cost functions compete in a oligopolistic market of imperfect competition with homogeneous products.

Under the Cournot duopoly, the competing firms offer identical products and thus, choose an amount or quantity to produce independently and at the same time because they cannot collude.

Both firms in a Cournot duopoly would enjoy lower profits if each firm simultaneously increased output above the Nash equilibrium level.

Hence, the advantage of the Cournot duopoly is that, it inhibits competing firms from deviating unilaterally.
