Answer:
Option 4 is definitely correct: Whether real GDP increased cannot be determined with the information given.
Explanation:
The information that is given only states that there has been an increase in the market value of final goods and services in two years. So, we cannot conclude that production increased in Rushya or average price levels increased there as per Option A and C respectively, because market value can be increased by both increase in production or price levels. Even Option B cannot be concluded as the real GDP is dependent on other variables as compared to the total market value.
Thus, only appropriate statement is option D: we cannot determine increase in real GDP with the given information.
Answer: $320
Explanation:
The Profit as the question shows is the Total Revenue less the total cost.
Total Revenue.
This will be the amount of goods sold multiplied by the price they are sold at.
The monopolist maximises output where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost which from the graph is 4 units.
The price they sell at is the intersection of this quantity with the demand curve which is at $120.
Total Revenue = Units Sold * Price
= 4 * 120
= $480
Total Cost
The total cost will be the average cost per unit multiplied by the number of units sold. The relevant average cost is the cost associated with the maximised out of 4 units which according to the graph is $40.
= Average cost * number of units
= 40 * 4
= $160
Profit = 480 - 160
= $320
Answer:
Dollar profit loss = $3
Holding period return = negative 9%
Explanation:
In order to find the dollar profit or loss return we will add the dividend and selling price because that the dividend plus the selling price is the cash that Travis receives or the positive cash and we will subtract the buying price from it because it is the negative cash flow. So we will add all the positive cash flows and subtract negative cash flow from it in order to find the dollar profit loss or return.
Selling price = 27.65
Dividend = 0.85
Selling price + Dividend= 28.5
Selling price = 31.50
Dollar profit loss or return = 28.50-31.5=-3
Loss= $3
In order to find the holding period return we will divide add the dividend and selling price , subtract buying price from it and then divide it by buying price.
(27.65+0.85-31.5)/31.5= -0.09 = -9%
Holding period return = negative 9%
Answer:
Quantity of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change i.e increase & decrease in demand & supply respectively.
- ↑Dd = ↓Sy : Qty same
- ↑Dd > ↓Sy : Qty ↑
- ↑Dd < ↓Sy : Qty ↓
Explanation:
Libya is an exporter of Oil to China. It implies china's demand for oil is satisfied by Libya's imports.
Usual markets are at equilibrium when market demand = market supply, demand & supply curves intersect.
Political unrest in Libya decreasing oil production, would decrease supply (exported) of oil to China & sift supply curve leftwards. Simultaneously, increase in China demand for oil would shift the demand curve rightwards. These changes in demand, supply would create excess demand. Excess demand would cause competition among buyers & increase the new equilibrium price.
However, <u>Quantity </u>of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change , shift in demand & supply. If increase in demand is equal to decrease in supply, the quantity would remain<u> same.</u> If increase in demand is more than decrease in supply, quantity will <u>increase</u>. If increase in demand is less than decrease in supply, the quantity will <u>decrease.</u>
Answer:
<u>A Star.</u>
Explanation:
The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix depicts a product's market share against the market growth rate. The matrix is also known for it's cow- dog metaphor.
The matrix represents 4 situations namely:
1. Stars : Products with high market share in high growth markets i.e high- high situation.
2. Cash Cows: Products with high market share in low growth markets.
3. Question Mark: Products with low market share in a high growth markets.
4. Dogs: Products with low market share in low growth markets.
In the given case, the product dominates the market i.e high market share. Secondly, it operates in a high growth market. Which means, the product belongs to the situation of a Star.
