Answer:

It is called d. the Coase theorem

Explanation:

"If private parties ... over externalities on their own" is the common wording of the Coase theorem.

Besides the commonly mentioned requirement that transaction cost must be zero, there are other assumptions to be satisfied including:

1. Clearly defined property rights (to bargain on)

2. No wealth effects (because the money you receive/pay for the benefits/costs will make you poorer/richer and change how valuable they are to you)

Answer:

<u> It doesn't consider differences in the cost of living.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Gross national income is a <em>cumulative</em> measure of the total income of the residents of a country in certain period usually a year.

It is misleading since it does not indicate the individual cost of living of residents. Remember, the individuals in the economy could be paying high taxes that eat up a greater part of their income, though it might seem as if the GNI value is good if you based your analysis of the economy on it.

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The fund with the highest ratio is Fund B.

Explanation:

Risk-free return = 6%

The average return on the market portfolio = 19%

The ratio equation formula is as follows:

FUND A: Return on fund - Risk free rate - Beta (Return on market portfolio - Risk free rate)/Standard deviation of fund

FUND A : 20 - 6 - 0.8(19 - 6 ) / 4 = 0.9

FUND B : 21 - 6 - 1(13)/1.25 = 1.6

FUND C : 23 -6 - 1.2 (13 ) /1.2 = 1.167

Therefore, the fund with the highest ratio is Fund B.

Of the following, what actions would be most helpful as Andrew develops his own brand? Check all that apply. Emphasis his degree

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The correct answers are letters "B" and "C": Talk about his three summer internships; Emphasize his leadership position in an on-campus organization.

Explanation:

Employers tend to look for relevant information on resumes. Usually, applicants that go further in selection processes are those whose resumes highlighted outstanding, unique information that shows the applicants have skills not easy no find for recruiters.

Thus, <em>Andrew should include his core competencies on his resume but pointing out capabilities that employees might be interested in such as leadership and teamwork. In case he has remarkable experiences such as cultural exchanges or internships, they must be added to his curriculum vitae as well.</em>

Your company manufactures two models of speakers, the Ultra Mini and the Big Stack. Demand for each depends partly on the price

Kipish [7]

Answer:

p1 = $259.53 p2 = $381.20

Explanation:

1. Find the revenue function.

This is a typical income maximization problem. Therefore, the first thing we should know is what are the revenues for each product.

Recall that the revenue is given by P * Q

1.a Find the revenue of the Ultra Mini (product 1):

$R_{1} = P_{1} Q_{1}$

$R_{1} =P_{1} (100,000 - 200P_{1} + 10P_{2} )$

$R_{1} =100,000P_{1} -200P_{1} ^{2} +10P_{2}P_{1}$

1.b Find the revenue of the Big Stack (product 2):

$R_{2} = P_{2} Q_{2}$

$R_{2} =P_{2} (150,000 + 10P_{1} - 200P_{2} )$

$R_{2} = 150,000P_{1+2} +10P_{1}P_{2} -200P_{2}^{2}$

2. Find the marginal revenues.

The revenue function must be derived from the price.

For product 1, we derive from P1:

$MR_{1} = 100,000 -400P_{1} +10P_{2}$

For product 2, we derive from P2:

$MR_{2} = 150,000 + 10P_{1} - 400P_{2}$

3. Create a system of linear equations in two unknowns

With the marginal revenue functions we create a system of linear equations in two unknowns (p1 and p2) and equal 0.

$100,000 - 400P_{1} +10P_{2} = 0\\150,000 + 10P_{1} -400P_{2} = 0$

4. Resolve the previous system

4.a. To make it easier, we can rethink the terms of the system like this:

$100,000 - 400P_{1} +10P_{2} = 0$ is the same as saying:

$P_{2} = \frac{-100,000 + 400P_{1} }{10}$

And $150,000 + 10P_{1} -400P_{2} = 0$ is the same as saying:

$P_{2}=\frac{150,000+10P_{1} }{400}$

Therefore:

$\frac{-100,000 + 400P_{1} }{10} =\frac{150,000+10P_{1} }{400}$

Notice that now we only have one unknown (P1).

4.b. In order to eliminate fractionals, we can multiply both terms by 400:

$\frac{400}{10} (-100,000 + 400P_{1} ) = \frac{400}{400} (150,000 + 10P_{1} )$

$(40)(-100,000+400P_{1}) =150,000+10P_{1}$

$-4,000,000+16,000P_{1} =150,000+10P_{1}$

4.c. We solve the equation, putting numbers on one side and unknowns on the other:

$-4,000,000-150,000=10P_{1} -16,000P_{1}$

$-4,150,000=-15,990P_{1}$

$\frac{-4,150,000}{-15,990} =P_{1}$

$P_{1} = $ 259.53$

4.d. Once P1 has been identified, we replace it in any of the terms of the original system of equations (those established in 4.a).

$P_{2}= \frac{-100,000+400(259.53)}{10}$

$P_{2} = 381.20$
