Answer:

A). equal to marginal revenue.

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

Price = marginal revenue = average revenue

Justin Cement Company has had the following pattern of earnings per share over the last five years: Year Earnings Per Share 20X1
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

(a) $4.08

(b) $51.03

Explanation:

Constant growth rate for earnings:

= (EPS for any year ÷ EPS for the previous year) - 1

= (8.40 ÷ 8.00) - 1

= 0.05

= 5%

(a) EPS for 2016 = EPS for 2015 × (1 + 5%)

                          = 9.72 × 1.05

                          = $10.21          

Dividend for 2016 = 40% × EPS for 2016

                               = 40% × 10.206

                               = $4.08

(b) Stock Price at the beginning of 2016:

= Dividend for 2016 ÷ (Required rate of return - Constant growth rate)

= 4.0824 ÷ (0.13 - 0.05)

= $51.03
