A profit maximizing competitive firm in a market with NO externalities will produce the quantity of output where
- price = marginal cost
- marginal revenue = marginal cost
- marginal benefit = marginal cost
Option D
<u>Explanation:
</u>
All of the options are true.
In a highly competitive market, companies set marginal incomes at marginal cost level (MR= MC) in order to make a profit. MR is the pitch of the profit curve, which represents the (D) and price (P) of the demand curve as well.
It is necessary to have positive, or negative economic benefits in the shorter term. The company profits whenever the price exceeds the total average cost. The company loses on the market if premiums are less than average total costs.
Answer:
a. The Geometric average return is 1.72%
b. The Arithmetic average return is 1.75%
c. The Dollar weighted average return is 2.61%
Explanation:
a) In order to calculate the time-weighted geometric average return we would have to calculate first the Holding period return as follows:
Holding period return = (200 - 190) / 190 = 5.263%
Hence, Geometric average return = (1 + .05263)^(1/3) - 1 = 1.72%
b) To calculate time-weighted arithmetic average return we have to make the following calculation:
Arithmetic average return = 5.263% / 3 = 1.75%
c) To calculate time-weighted arithmetic average return we would have to make the following calculation:
Dollar weighted average return=-190*3 + 200/(1+r) + 200/(1+r)^2 + 200 / (1+r)^3 = 0
= 2.61%

Consumer goods are those goods that are purchased and used by consumers. Consumer goods are not used by manufacturers to produce other goods. In essence, consumer goods are ready for use since they have been taken through the production and manufacturing. For a country to have consumer goods it must trade with other countries either to acquire raw materials or trade in consumer goods. This trade process contributes greatly towards the development of LDC economies into MDC status.
