Answer: A. costs of moderate inflation are nearly zero whereas high inflation is quite costly.

Explanation:

Economists generally believe that moderate inflation is actually good for the economy as prices need to increase in a healthy manner overtime in order to drive consumption. This means that to them, the cost of moderate inflation is nearly zero.

This is a sharp contrast to high inflation which most economists generally believe to be costly as it reduces the savings of people as well as their real wages and welfare.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer and Explanation:

1. At 0fficial exchange rate:

100 * 0.5 = $50

what I want to buy would be purchased at $50

at market exchange rate:

0.25 x 100 = $25

100 x 0.25% = $25

the price is $25

Larry Nelson holds 1,000 shares of General Electric common stock. The annual shareholders meeting is being held soon, but as a m

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Larry must have signed a PROXY AGREEMENT that gives the management group control over his shares.

A proxy agreement is generally used for stockholders voting procedures, they basically grant another person the right to vote on behalf of another stockholder.

Larry's current investment in the company is $86,000.

= 2,000 stocks x $43 = $86,000

If the company issues new shares and Larry makes no additional purchase, Larry's investment will be worth $82,560.

company's new market value = (20,000 x $43) + (5,000 x $34.40) = $1,032,000

new stock price = $1,032,000 / 25,000 stocks = $41.28

= $41.28 x 2,000 = $82,560

This scenario is an example of STOCK DILUTION.

The stock price will lower because the increase in the company's value is less than proportional to the increase in the number of stocks.

Larry could be protected if the firm's corporate charter includes a PREEMPTIVE provision.

Preemptive rights give current stockholders the right to purchase more stocks (in case the company issues more stocks) before any outside investors.

If Larry exercises the provisions in the corporate charter to protect his stake, his investment value in the firm will become $103,200.

= [(5,000 / 10) x $34.40] + $86,000 = $17,200 + $86,000 = $103,200
