Answer:
joint venture
Explanation:
A joint venture is a strategic alliance where two or more parties, usually businesses, form a partnership to share markets, intellectual property, assets, knowledge, and, of course, profits. A joint venture differs from a merger in the sense that there is no transfer of ownership in the deal
Joint ventures provide a way for companies to enter foreign markets. For example, a foreign company enters into a joint venture with a U.S. company for sale of its product. The foreign company then benefits from the domestic company's governmental approval and business relationships in the industry.
Answer: C) $1.04/C$1
Explanation:
We define the inflation rate in a certain country as
- a rate at which the value of a currency is falling
- as a result the usual level of prices for goods and services keeps rising.
1 year ago the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was $1/C$1.
That time inflation rate in US was 4% greater than in Canada.
So, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars :
($1 + 4% of $1)/C$1
=($1+$0.04)/ C$1
=$1.04 / C$1
Hence, the correct option is C) $1.04/C$1
Answer:
The new price of the bond is $928.94
Explanation:
Initially the bond's price is equal to its par value which means the coupon rate on bond and the market interest rates are the same i.e. 6%.
Th bond's price is calculated as the sum of the present value of the annuity of interest payments by the bond and the present value of the face value of the bond that will be received at maturity. The discount rate used to calculate the present values is the market interest rate.
As the bond is a semiannual bond, we will use the semi annual coupon payment, the semi annual percentage of the annual rate of interest on market and the number of semi annual periods outstanding.
Semi annual coupon payment = 1000 * 0.06 * 6/12 = $30
Number of semiannual periods till maturity = 10 * 2 = 20 periods
New market interest rate = 6 + 1 = 7% annual
New semi annual market interest rate = 7% / 2 = 3.5%
Price of bond = 30 * [ (1 - (1+0.035)^-20) / 0.035 ] + 1000 / (1+0.035)^20
Price of bond = $928.938 rounded off to $928.94
We used the present value of annuity ordinary formula for preset value of interest payments and the normal present value of principal formula for the face value.
Answer:
a. nations will be unable to specialize in what they are good at and therefore end up consuming less
Explanation:
There is no country that can produce all goods and services efficiently (at the least cost ). It is for this reason that trade between countries becomes necessary. Trade between countries gives countries the opportunity to concentrate on the production of goods in which it is efficient in production and purchase goods for which it produces at higher costs.
If trade between nations is prohibited, countries would have to produce goods that they are both efficient and ijefficient in their production, resources would be wasted, specialisation in the production of goods would not occur and consumption would fall.
