Explain the effects of each of the following factors on the market price and quantity of cell phones available in the market:
An increase in consumers’ income = if there is an increase in consumers income, there may be a decrease in the cell phones available for purchase because more people would have money to purchase phones. If more people are willing and able to purchase phones, the market price may increase on the device.
Technical improvements that reduce production costs = If production costs of the devices go down, the market price may decrease making the phones more affordable. If phones become more affordable and decrease in price, the quantity sold may rise to reflect the change.
A sharp decline in the cost of making fixed-line calls = if the cost of making fixed-line calls decreases, there may not be any change to the market price of phones however their may be an increase in quantity sold.

Answer: C. Decreasing returns to scale
Explanation: Economic of scale refer to a situation where as the level of output increases, the average cost will decrease. In the case of constant return to scale here the average cost will not change as the output increases.
In this question the firm is operating in the negative sloped portion of the long-run average total cost curve, which shows that it has a "Decreasing returns to scale " .
Since he is planning on an annual inflation rate of 2%., the statement that explains the interest rates relating to the CD is nominal interest rate is 3% while the real interest rate is 1%.
A real interest rate refers to the nominal rate which is adjusted for inflation.
- We are given that Interest (nominal rate) is 3% and planned Inflation rate = 2%
- Real interest rate = 1% (Nominal rate - inflation rate)
Hence, the statement that explains the interest rates relating to the CD is nominal interest rate is 3% while the real interest rate is 1%.
Therefore, the Option B is correct.

Answer:
a. Assuming that fixed payments are to be made monthly for three years and that the loan is fully amortizing, what will be the monthly payments? What will be the loan balance after three years?
- monthly payment = $997.95
- principal balance after 36th payment = $145,090.59
b. What would new payments be beginning in year 4 if the interest rate fell to 6 percent and the loan continued to be fully amortizing?
- monthly payment = $905.34
c. In (a) what would monthly payments be during year 1 if they were interest only? What would payments be beginning in year 4 if interest rates fell to 6 percent and the loan became fully amortizing?
a. $875
b. $935.98
Explanation:
A 3/1 adjustable rate mortgage is a 30 year mortgage where the interest rate is fixed for the first 3 years, and then it can vary.
I prepared an amortization schedule that shows the first 3 payments with a 7% interest rate and then the rest of the payments will carry a 6% interest rate.
The monthly payment for the first 36 months is $997.95 (principal balance after 36th payment $145,090.59), then it decreases to $905.34 per month.
See amortization schedule 1
if the monthly payments only covered interest expenses during the first 3 years, they would be $150,000 x 7%/12 = $875
then the monthly payments would be $935.98.
See amortization schedule 2
