Answer:

The total cost of producing a given level of output is:____.

d. minimized when the ratio of marginal product to input price is equal for all inputs.

Explanation:

With the above situation, the marginal cost (input price) = the marginal revenue (marginal product). The producer can then maximize profit if it can lower its average total cost per unit below the marginal cost for producing one additional unit of its product. In all cost situations, it is better for the producer to have the total revenue exceeding the total costs, at all times, but more especially with increasing production.

Answer:

The rate of return is 7.20%

Explanation:

a) Assuming you purchased the bond for $880, in order to calculate the rate of return you earn if you held the bond for 25 years until it matured with a value $5,000 we would have to calculate the following formula:

Rate of Return = [FV/PV]1/n - 1

Rate of Return= [$5,000 / $880]1/25 - 1 = [5.6818]0.04 - 1 = 1.0720 - 1 = 0.0720, or 7.20%

Rate of Return= [5.6818]0.04 - 1

Rate of Return= 1.0720 - 1

Rate of Return=0.0720, or 7.20%

The rate of return is 7.20%
