Answer:
Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
In United states:
Can produce 25 tons of steel or 250 automobiles,
Opportunity cost of producing a ton of steel = 250 ÷ 25
= 10 automobiles
Opportunity cost of producing 1 automobile = 25 ÷ 250
= 0.1 tons of steel
In Japan:
Can produce 30 tons of steel or 275 automobiles,
Opportunity cost of producing a ton of steel = 275 ÷ 30
= 9.17 automobiles
Opportunity cost of producing 1 automobile = 30 ÷ 275
= 0.11
Therefore,
United States has a comparative advantage in producing automobiles because the opportunity cost of producing automobiles is lower than the Japan.
Japan has a comparative advantage in producing steel because the opportunity cost of producing steel is lower than the United states.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is,
Presently, Stock A pays a dividend of $1.00 a share, and you expect the dividend to grow rapidly for the next four years at 20 percent. Thus the dividend payments will be
Year Dividend
1 $1.20
2 1.44
3 1.73
4 2.07
After this initial period of super growth, the rate of increase in the dividend should decline to 8 percent. If you want to earn 12 percent on investments in common stock, what is the maximum you should pay for this stock?
Answer:
The maximum that should be paid for the stock today is $40.29
Explanation:
We will use the two stage dividend growth model of DDM to calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price under the two stage model is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [Dn * (1+g2) / (r - g2)] / (1+r)^n
P0 = 1.2 / (1+0.12) + 1.44 / (1+0.12)^2 + 1.73 / (1+0.12)^3 + 2.07 * (1+0.12)^4 +
[2.07 * (1+0.08) / (0.12 - 0.08)] / (1+0.12)^4
P0 = $40.2853 rounded off to $40.29
Answer:
A. principle of least privilege
Explanation:
According to The Principle of Least Privilege, a subject should be given only those privileges that are essential for it to complete its task. The principle works by giving just enough access to perform the required job. It dictates that users be assigned the least set of privileges they need to do their jobs, according to their roles. The principle aids in the creation of protective systems.
