Answer:
Investor A = $545216 .
Investor B = $352377
Investor C = $897594
Explanation:
Annual rate ( r ) = 9.38%
N = 41 years
<u> Calculate the balance at age of 65</u>
1) For Investor A
balance at the end of 10 years
= $2000 (FIA, 9.38 %, 10) (1 + 0.0938) ≈ $33845
Hence at the end of 65 years ( balance )
= $33845 (FIP, 9.38 %, 31) ≈ $545216 .
2) For investor B
at the age of 65 years ( balance )
= $2000 (FIP, 9.38%, 31) = $322159 x (1 + 0.0938) ≈ $352377
3) For Investor C
at the age of 65 years ( balance )
= $2000 (FIP, 9.38%, 41) = $820620 x (1 + 0.0938) ≈ $897594
Answer:
d. a monopoly firm reducing its price in an attempt to maintain its monopoly.
Explanation:
In a competitive system, a firm practices predatory pricing when it charges prices below its costs in order to eliminate competitors. When the prevailing system is a monopoly, the firm is the only company providing the good and it can practice predatory pricing in the short term to prevent a competitor from entering the market. Thus the firm remains monopolistic.
