If equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market the deadweight loss will equal the sum of consumer surplus and producer surpl
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

there is no deadweight loss.

Explanation:

In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.

This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.

Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;

1. Perfect information.

2. No barriers, it is typically free.

3. Equilibrium price and quantity.

4. Many buyers and sellers.

5. Homogeneous products.

Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.

Hence, if equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market then, there is no deadweight loss i.e a loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

$3,168

Explanation:

We will receive $4000 in future (after 4 years time) which means all we want to know is the amount that we Derek must deposit today.

This present value of the $4000 payment received after 4 years from today can be calculated using the following formula:

Present value = Future Value / (1 + r)^n

Here

Future Value is $4000

r is 6%

n is 4 years

So by putting values, we have:

Present value = $4000 / (1 + 6%)^4 Years

Present value = $3,168
