Answer:
The correct answers are:
1) "B": a common resource.
2) "A": excludable and rival.
Explanation:
1) A common resource is one that provides tangible benefits. This is the type of resource that can be used by several people at the same time without excluding the availability for its use to others. If they are not owned by anyone they take the name of open-access resources.
2) A good is excludable and rival if someone can prevent the use of it and when its use necessarily implies others not using it. Under this category fall all private resources since their ownership belongs to a certain number of people only if not only one.
The correct answer is B.
A price floor is a policy established by economic authorities that consists on setting a threshold so that the price of a certain product or service cannot decrease under that. It distorts the market outcome when it is larger than the equilibrium price, because the amount supplied at the price floor level would the larger than the amount demanded by consumers and, hence, there is an excess of supply or surplus. Therefore, <u>the market does not clear because the rationing function of prices has been externally influenced. </u>
A price ceiling is a similar policy established by economic authorities. A threshold is set so that the price of a certain product or service cannot increase over it. It distorts the market outcome when it is smaller than the equilibrium price, because the amount supplied at the price ceiling level would the smaller than the amount demanded by consumers and, hence, there is an excess of demand of shortage. Again, <u>the market does not clear because the rationing function of prices has been externally distorted. </u>
<em>A market clears when the equilibrium is reached and the amount supplied equals the amount demanded, so that the desires of both producers and consumers meet. </em>
Answer:
Total $53.0656 (millions)
Explanation:
We will need to add the present value of the coupon payment
and the present value of the maturity date
<u>present value of the annuity:</u>
C= 60 million x 5% /2 1.5
time= 20 years 2 payment per year = 40
rate = 6% annual = 0.06/2 = 0.03 semiannually
PV $34.6722
<u>present value of the bonds:</u>
Maturity 60
time 40
rate 0.03
PV $18.3934
<u>The value of the bond will be the sum of both</u>
PV c $34.6722
PV m $18.3934
Total $53.0656
