Answer:

Positive economic profit

Explanation: In the economic profit, we have to consider the revenue earned and the cost of production including the opportunity cost. In the scenario above, the economic profit is positive, because, the average and marginal cost falls by $0.15 at a time when the sales price of the product is $0.20. The economic profit here is positive, due to the further reduction in the marginal and average price of an important material in the production process. In this scenario, due to positive economic profit, the New firms are attracted to the market.

Suppose that the spot price of the euro is currently $1.30. The 1-year futures price is $1.35. Is the interest rate higher in th
valkas [14]

Answer:

The interest rate is higher in the US.

Explanation:

The forward price is calculated using the following formula,

F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t

where,

  • F = Forward rate
  • S = Spot rate
  • Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
  • Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
  • t = time in years

We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD

The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.

We can see this by the following example,

Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)

F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1   => $1.362 PER 1EUR

Suppose you buy some stock in the Alpha Corporation at a price of $45.95 per share. 410 days later you sell the stock for $48.27
kondaur [170]

Answer: 6.79%

Explanation:

The holding period return is:

= (Current price - Cost price + Dividend) / Cost price

= (48.27 - 45.95 + 1.20) / 45.95

= 7.66%

The annualized return is:

= ( ( 1 + holding period return) ^ number of days in a year/ number of days stock was held - 1)

= ( ( 1 + 7.66%) ³⁶⁵ / ⁴¹⁰ - 1)

= 6.79%
