Answer:

c. 0.25

Explanation:

Cross-price elasticity = [(Q2-Q1/)((Q1-Q2)/2) * 100] / [(P2-P1/)((P1-P2)/2) * 100]

Cross-price elasticity = [(65-55)/((65+55)/2)*100] / [(2-1)/((1+2)/2)*100]

Cross-price elasticity = 16.6667/66.6667

Cross-price elasticity = 0.25000037

Cross-price elasticity = 0.25

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

20.1%

Explanation:

In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:

<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>

Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>

Putting all the number together, we have:

Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%

<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>

dybincka [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: a person with a high opportunity cost of time.

Explanation:

To begin with, the opportunity cost of something is what the person sacrificies in order to be doing that thing. Therefore that when we talk about the opportunity cost of time it refers to what the person sacrificies in order to do something with that time. If the person has a high opportunity cost of time then the sacrificies that he made with that time will be higher than other person that has a low opportunity cost of time, meaning that the time spent by that person is less important than to the one that has a lot of time to spare.

ad-work [718]

NOTE: Your question isn't clear, Johnson. Would you mind checking it and writing it in a way you can be better helped?

Meanwhile, I hope these explanation below helps.

Answer and Explanation:

Two goods are said to be complementary goods if an increase in the price of a particular one leads to a commensurate decrease in the demand that buyers placed for the other one.

A good is said to be a normal good if the reason for an increase in demand is due to an increase in the income of the buyers.

A good is said to be an inferior good if there is a decrease in demand even though the buyers have experienced increase in their income.
