Answer: Input Prices have increased.

Explanation:

When an Economy sees prices rising but at the same time productivity is falling, the likely cause of that is an increase in Input prices.

Input Prices are the prices of the raw materials and other goods needed to produce finished goods. If these prices should rise, it becomes more expensive for producers to produce and they will therefore reduce the amount of goods they produce. This reduction in Quantity leads to an increase win prices because according to the Law of Supply and Demand, if supply reduces and demand remains the same then prices must increase till a new equilibrium is reached.

For example, imagine a hypothetical Economy of Steel Makers. If the price of Iron changed from $5 to $10, producers who were producing 20 units of Steel will see their costs double and react by producing only 10 units of Steel to maintain cost margins thereby dropping Productivity.

The 20 units of Steel used to be sold in the market at $20 but now that the supply has dropped to 10 units, the price doubles to $40 to cater for this reduction in Quantity.

Answer:

Price to pay now for the stock = $96.278

Explanation:

<em>The price of the stock would be the present value(PV) of the future cash flow expected from it discounted at the required rate of 13%</em>

<em>Hence we would add the present value of he dividend and the resent of he price at the end of the period</em>

PV = CF × (1+r)^(-n)

<em>CF- Cash Flow</em>

<em>R- rate of return- 13%</em>

<em>n- number of years</em>

PV of dividend =  2.60 × (1.13)^(-1) =  2.30

PV of stock price after a year = 120× (1.13)^(-1) = 93.97

Price to pay now for the stock =  2.30 + 93.97 = $96.278

Price to pay now for the stock = $96.278

Why might a person assume the Mr. White could be doing well financially
defon

\huge\color{purple}{\mathbb{ANSWER:}}

Mr. White was the third and final owner of the talisman in W. W. Jacobs' short story "The Monkey's Paw." He plucked it from the fireplace when the previous owner, Sergeant Major Morris, tossed it there to burn and end the chain of misfortune that came with it. He is motivated mostly by curiosity, since he seems happy with his life and is financially secure.

Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."

Ivenika [448]

Answer: Equilibrium price is $20 and equilibrium quantity is 4 units.

Explanation: Equilibrium is a situation of rest, a situation where demand for a good is equal to its supply. The price that balance demand and supply is known as the equilibrium price.

Q_{xd} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x}\\Q_{xs} = \[tex]Q_{xd} = Q_{xs}  14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x} =   \frac{1}{4} P_{x}  - 1 14 + 1 = \frac{1}{4} P_{x} + \frac{1}{2} P_{x}   15 = \frac{3}{4} P_{x}  20 = P_{x}[/tex] =  Equilibrium price


Equilibrium quantity is given by,

Q_{xd} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} P_{x} = 14 - \frac{1}{2} * 20= 14 - 10= 4
