Answer:

No, not at all. You should not go for producing that good.

Explanation:

A company do business in order to earn profits. A company earns profits by selling the product, good or service they produce or provide to the consumers. But if the cost of producing the goods is more than the profits earned due to that product, then there is no use of doing business. In order to earn profits, the cost of the product produced must be less than the price of that product. The price of the product should be set at a level which can cover all the costs incurred to produce that product. So in this question, if the price is $12 and cost is $40, then there is no need to product that product any more because this product is only incurring loss to the company.

Note whether the following phenomena would be consistent with or a violation of the efficient market hypothesis.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

D) Stock prices of companies that announce increased earning in January tend to outperform the market in February.    

Explanation:

The above is consistent with the Efficient Market Hypothesis. All others are a direct contravention.

<em>The efficient market hypothesis (EMH), also known as the efficient market theory, is a hypothesis that states that the prices of shares contain all information and that consistent alpha generation is impossible.</em>

According to the hypothesis, stocks always trade at their fair value on exchanges, making it impossible for investors to purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks for inflated prices.

This means that it should not be possible to outperform the overall market through professional stock selection or market timing.

The only way according to EMH that an investor can obtain better returns is by purchasing riskier investments.  

By implication, this also means that it is not possible to "beat the market" consistently on a risk-adjusted basis since market prices should only react to new information.  

You would note that in the option D, earning (which is a key driver for demand of stock) is announced in one month. The natural reaction would be for the demand for that stock to surge in the next month.

Suppose the government launches a successful advertising campaign that convinces workers with high school degrees to quit their
quester [9]

Suppose the government launches a successful advertising campaign that convinces workers with high school degrees to quit their jobs and become full time college students. This would cause the labor force participation rate to decrease.

Let's imagine that the government employs a convincing advertising campaign to persuade those with high school diplomas to quit their jobs and devote their full time to attending college. As a result, the rate of labor force participation would decrease.

The labor force participation rate provides an estimate of the size of the labor force in an economy. The percentage of the working-age, non-institutionalized population, aged 16 and over, that is employed or actively seeking employment is used in the calculation. When paired with the unemployment rates, it can help put the state of the economy in some sort of context.
