Answer:

e. None of the answer choices are correct.

Explanation:

A capital structure that comprises of those securities which can dilute it's earnings per share to common stockholders, is termed as complex capital structure.

Convertible bonds grant the owners, the right to convert their bonds into stocks, which leads to a dilutive effect on earnings per share for common stock holders.

Similarly, stock options grants a right to employees to purchase company's stock at a rate lower than the market price. This again is dilutive in nature.

Warrants are just like call options but when those are exercised create a dilution effect on the earnings per share of the company. Here the holder gets an option to buy new shares at an exercise price at a future date.

Stock dividends refer to paying common stock holders in the form of additional stock issue rather than paying them cash dividend.  Those dilute the stock's price.

Thus, all four lead to a complex capital structure.

Suppose that the demand for my new book, Spatulas From Around the World, is such that the demand curve lies everywhere below the
dsp73

Answer:

C. Shut down the presses printing my book

Explanation:

Since the average variable cost of producing the book is above the demand curve, the best course of action is to shut down the printing (production) of more books. The author would lose less money by shutting down operations rather than continuing production at a variable cost higher than the demand he's receiving for the books.

In economics, when profit is less than the average variable cost, firms are advised to stop production in the short run and incur economic loss on fixed inputs. This is because with continued operations, total revenue would not only be lower than total cost, but rather, would also be less than total variable cost.

The cross-price elasticity of demand measures the a. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good in one location divi
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

d. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good divided by the percentage change in the price of another good.

Explanation:

Price-demand elasticity measures the demand sensitivity of a good when a change in the price of another good occurs. For example, what happens to the demand for bread when the price of butter varies? This depends on the cross elasticity of demand since these goods tend to be complementary.

 The price elasticity of cross demand between two goods is easily calculated by a formula where the numerator is the change in the quantity of a good and the denominator is the percentage change in the price of the complementary good.

If the calculation of elasticity is greater than 1, it means that the amount demanded for bread is sensitive (elastic) to the price of butter and tends to vary sharply. If the result is between 0 and 1, the demand is inelastic, that is, the amount of bread demanded will not change considerably when the price of butter varies. If the calculation is equal to 1, then the demand for bread varies perfectly with the price of butter.
