Answer:

The slope of the demand curve at point A is  - $0.40/unit

The slope of the demand curve at point B is - $0.14/unit

Explanation:

See the file attached with the figure corresponding to this question.

The slope of a curve at a given point is the slope of the line tangent to the curve at that point.

Point A:

The tangent line to the demand curve at point A is drawn and passes through the points (20, 34) and (45, 24).Then, the slope is:

slope = rise / run = ΔP / Δq = $ (34 - 24) / (20 - 45) units

slope = - $10 /25units = - $2/5units = - $0.40/unit.

The minus sign indicates the that price decreases when the quantity increases

Point B:

The tangent line to the demand curve at point B passes through the points (90, 12) and (140, 5).Then, the slope is:

slope = rise / run = ΔP / Δq = $ (12 - 5) / (90 - 140) units

slope = - $7 /50units = - $7/50units = - $0.14/unit.

Again, the negative sign indicates that when the number of units increase the price decreases.

suter [353]

Answer:

Wealth will be redistributed from creditors to debtors

Explanation:

Deflation refers to the general fall in the price level of goods and services when rate of inflation becomes lesser than 0%.

Due to the fall in the price level, goods and services become cheaper, credit providers reduce the quantum of credit provided.

Fall in the prices leads to lower expenditure by the purchasers owing to lower level of confidence and such buyers delay their purchases.

Deflation increases the purchasing power of consumers since at the same level of income, buyers can now buy more compared to previously.

Hence, those who earn fixed pension observe an increase in the value of such pension.

NeTakaya

Answer:

$131.58

Explanation:

The computation of the new stock price is shown below:

= Selling price of stock per share ÷ current number of shares

= $250 ÷ 1.90

= $131.58

Since the 90% dividend is declared. It means for each share 90% dividend is declared so after stock dividend, the number of shares would be

= 1 + 90%

= 1 + 0.9

= 1.9

We simply divide the selling price by the current number of shares

Assume that the U.S. one-year interest rate is 3 percent and the one-year interest rate on Australian dollars is 6 percent. The

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

you invest $100,000 today and purchase A$145,137.88

in one year, you will have A$152,394.78

since the PPP stands, the spot rate in one year should be:

0.703 US$ per A$ (since Australia's inflation rate is 2% higher than the US inflation rate, the Australian dollar will depreciate by 2%)

with your A$152,394.78, you can purchase $107,133.53

if you invested in the US instead, you would have $103,000

this means that your Australian investment yielded ($107,133.53 / $103,000) - 1 = 0.04 or 4%
