Answer:

Question marks

Explanation:

The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix divides the company's portfolio of products or business units into four categories:

  1. Dogs: products that have a low market share and operate in a slowly growing market.
  2. Cash cows: products that have a high market share and operate in a slowly growing market. They generate the largest revenues.  
  3. Stars: products that have a high market share and operate in high growth industries. They generate a lot of cash but they also absorb a lot cash since constant investment is needed, if managed correctly can convert into cash cows.  
  4. Question marks: products that have a low market share and operate in high growth industries. Their future is uncertain, because even though the industry is booming, they are falling behind. If managed correctly can convert into stars.

An investor borrows an amount at an annual effective interest rate of 5% and will repay all interest and principal in a lump sum
Ghella [55]

Answer:

d. 101

Explanation:

first we must determine the amount of the loan:

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)²⁰ = $553.68

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 14.877 (PV annuity factor, 3%, 20 periods) = $595.08

Loan amount = $1,148.76

Future value of the loan = $1,148.76 x (1 + 5%)¹⁰ = $1,871.21

You will receive 20 coupon payments of $40 each, which will be reinvested at 2% semiannual rate. You will also receive $1,000 corresponding to the face value of the bond.

Future value of the coupon payments = $40 x 24.297 (FV annuity factor, 2%, 20 periods)] = $971.88

Total money received at the end of the 10 year period = $971.88 + $1,000 = $1,971.88

Gain = $1,971.88 - $1,871.21 = $100.67 ≈ $101

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Difficult entry, Mutual interdependence, Market is control by a few large firms.

Explanation:

An Oligopolistic market very few organisations control a particular market share. Likewise, when another organisation attempts to enter the market, there are obstructions set up by the current organisations. Similarly, if one organisation changes or alter a commodity, it affects all other firms and organisations. So there is mutual interdependence in the oligopolistic market. There is high mutual interdependence because firms produce identical or the same goods and services.

Ferdinand’s employer will match 50% of his $250 monthly contributions to his 401(k). This means that Ferdinand’s employer will p
irina [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the given question is shown below:-

Total Contributions = Monthly contribution + Amount invested in Ferdinand’s 401(k)

= $250 + $125

= $375  

1. Future Value = PMT [((1 + r)n - 1) ÷ r

Future value = 375 × ((1 + 0.03 ÷ 12) × 12 × 40 - 1) ÷ (0.03 ÷ 12)

= $347,272

2. Ferdinand deposit = Given Amount × Total number of months in a year × Number of years

= $250 × 12 Months × 40 Years

= $120,000

3. The Amount put in by the employer = 50% of $250 ×Total number of months in a year × Number of years

= $125 × 12 Months × 40 Years

= $60,000

4. Interest = Future value - Ferdinand deposit - The Amount put in by the employer

= $347,272 - $120,000 - $60,000

= $167,272

We simply applied the above formulas
