Answer:
a. nations will be unable to specialize in what they are good at and therefore end up consuming less
Explanation:
There is no country that can produce all goods and services efficiently (at the least cost ). It is for this reason that trade between countries becomes necessary. Trade between countries gives countries the opportunity to concentrate on the production of goods in which it is efficient in production and purchase goods for which it produces at higher costs.
If trade between nations is prohibited, countries would have to produce goods that they are both efficient and ijefficient in their production, resources would be wasted, specialisation in the production of goods would not occur and consumption would fall.

Answer:
b. Horizontal merger.
Explanation:
Project Repat is merging with a company that produces similar products to its own markets them in similar markets as well, this is an example of a horizontal merger that results in increased synergies between the similar firms and a greater market share opportunity.
Vertical mergers are usually not in the same industry. They would either be with the suppliers of Project Repat or customers who retail Project Repat's products.
Conglomerate is an example of diversification and usually the merging firms have different operations.
There are no information of clashes of any sort within the two merging companies so it is uncertain whether this is a hostile takeover.
Hope that helps.

1. The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the <u>value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year</u> using <u>this year's prices </u>by the <u>value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year </u>using <u>the base year's prices</u> and multiplying by 100.

Answer:
Option (d) 7 times
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Net income = $250,000
Dividends paid to common stockholders = $50,000
Common stock outstanding = 50,000
Selling price of the common stocks = $35
Now,
The price-earnings ratio is calculated as:
⇒ ( Stock price ) ÷ ( Earnings per share )
also,
Earnings per share = ( Net income ) ÷ ( common stock outstanding )
= $250,000 ÷ 50,000
= $5
or
Price-earnings ratio = $35 ÷ $5
or
Price-earnings ratio = 7 times
Option (d) 7 times
