Answer:

b. Horizontal merger.

Explanation:

Project Repat is merging with a company that produces similar products to its own markets them in similar markets as well, this is an example of a horizontal merger that results in increased synergies between the similar firms and a greater market share opportunity.

Vertical mergers are usually not in the same industry. They would either be with the suppliers of Project Repat or customers who retail Project Repat's products.

Conglomerate is an example of diversification and usually the merging firms have different operations.

There are no information of clashes of any sort within the two  merging companies so it is uncertain whether this is a hostile takeover.

Hope that helps.

kirill115 [55]

The answer is 200%.

If we see the world population index and compare the population in 1960 and 2000, we see that population in 2000 is double than 1960. 

World population in 1960 = 3,007,751

World population in 2000 = <span>6,104,538 which is approximately double than 1960.</span>

So when we express it as percentage multiply 2 with 100 and we get the percentage 200.

A currency speculator expects the spot rate of British Pounds (GBP) to change from $2.00 to $2.20 in 6-months. Assume the specul
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Borrow in dollars then at spot rate convert money to british pound. Invest in the pounds for half a year and convert back to dollars.

Explanation:

Access to credit = $20000000

We do a conversion to pounds

= 20000000/2

= £10000000

When this is invested for 6 months

10000000 x 1 +4% x6/12

= 10000000(1+0.04*0.5)

= 10000000x1.02

= 10200000

We then make a conversion back to dollars

10200000 x 2.2

= 22,440,000 dollars

Loan to be repaid

20000000(1+6%x6/12)

= 20000000 x 1 +0.06*0.5

= 20000000 x 1.03

= 20,600,000

Then arbitrage profit = 22440000 - 20600000

= 1840000

Imagine that two goods are available to you: apples (X) and pears (Y). You like apples half as much as pears. If your fruit budg
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

the value of the MktRS (market rate of substitution) is 0

Explanation:

The computation of the market rate of substitution is shown below:

Since it is mentioned that

You like apples half as pears

So the equation would be

X = 1 ÷ 2 Y

X ÷ Y = 1 ÷ 2

Now the market rate of substitution of the price is

= $2 ÷ $4

= 1 ÷ 2

So,

= 1 ÷ 2 - 1 ÷ 2

= 0

Hence, the value of the MktRS (market rate of substitution) is 0

The same is to be considered

Principal P= 1000

Rate r=0.08

Period n = 6
