<span>Given:
check written year 1 year 2 year 3
yes 225 175 125
no 275 325 375
</span><span>The expected number of shoppers who pay by check in year 1 if there is no difference in the proportion of shoppers who pay by check among the three years is 175.
Each year has 500 customers, and its proportion of customers paying in check gradually decreased from 45% to 25%. If there is no difference in proportion, I am assuming that the data is averaged. Thus, (225+175+125) / 3 = 525 / 3 = 175.</span>

To get the growth rate, we will follow the Gordon Growth modelP= D/(K-G)whereP= stock value=$68D= Expected dividend=$3.85G= Growth rateK= required rate of returnG =K-(D/P)Substitute the given valuesG= 0.11-(3.85/68)
G= 5.34%The growth rate for stock required is 5.34%
Answer: will increase but this will not affect living standards
Explanation:
GDP is sometimes called an incomplete measure because there are certain measures that it does not include such as the black market.
If firms in the black market shift to the formal sector, they will now be included in GDP which means that GDP will increase.
The living standards of people in the country will probably not change however because the firms involved were simply shifting sectors and are not said to be more or less prosperous as a result. Assuming they remained the same, nothing changes for living standards.
