Answer:

C) the monopoly model

Explanation:

First of all, collusion is illegal, and it is defined as secret cooperation between individuals or organizations that should be competing against each other.

In this case, the oligopolistic firms should be competing against each other trying to earn a larger market share, but since they collude together, they will act as if they were one single large monopoly. Usually collusion leads to higher prices, benefiting the companies but hurting the customers. Since all the competing firms in the market decided to work together, they will set their prices in a similar manner to a monopoly since there is no real competition between them.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

(a) $34.4

(b) $38.70(Approx).

(c) $61.9524

Explanation:

(a) Current price:

=\frac{D1}{Required\ return-Growth\ rate}

=\frac{2.15\times(1+0.04)}{0.105-0.04}

=\frac{2.15\times 1.04}{0.105-0.04}

      = $34.4

We use the formula:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{n}

where,

A = future value

P = present value

r = rate of interest

n = time period

(b) A=P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{n}

A=34.4(1.04 )^{3}

         = 34.4 × 1.124864

         = $38.6953

         = $38.70(Approx).

(c)  A=P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{n}

A=34.4(1.04 )^{15}

         = 34.4 × 1.80094351

         = $38.6953

         = $61.9524

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

a) Appeal to the receiver's sense of responsibility and pride in the company's good name

Persuasive messages refer to communicating an idea so as to persuade the recipient towards an action.

Such messages are usually drafted by sales and marketing personnel.

While drafting a persuasive message, AIDA (Attention, interest, desire and action) principle is usually followed by the marketers.

In the given case, Mikhail's claim has already been denied once and he is drafting the second persuasive message.

He may choose to express, what the receiver's responsibility and duties are and how non performance of those puts the company's reputation (pride) at stake.
