Answer:
debt trap
Explanation:
In simple words, debt trap refers to the situation when a company keeps on incurring debt for repaying off the loans taken earlier. It is called trap as the amount of interest on loan keeps on building up making it impossible for the firm to pay it off completely.
Usually the firms starts getting in debt trap when they lack of funds or due to failure of the specific project for which the loans has been taken specifically. Once the firm gets inside such a situation stepping back becomes nearly impassible leading to complete shut down of the firm.
Answer: The correct answer is option B; Add D2 to the right of D, showing an increase in demand and increase in equilibrium price.
Explanation: The demand for a commodity is usually affected either positively or negatively by some factors or determinants. Foremost among the factors of demand is price of the commodity. Other factors include;
(a) Price of substitute commodities
(b) Consumers preferences
(c) Population
(d) Weather conditions
(e) Advertising
In the question above, the use of a popular actor as the spokesperson of the product is a form of advertising that is intended to improve upon the perception of the commodity and hence encourage consumers to buy more of it. If the popular personality endorses a product, there is an almost one hundred percent likelihood that consumers would see the product as a preferred choice and this would cause the demand to go up or increase.
An increase in the market demand would be signified by the outward shift of the demand curve to the right from D to D2. Since the x-axis shows the quantity demanded increasing towards the right hand side, then an increase in market demand would be reflected by a shift of the demand curve to the right.
As a result of that, the price would now move from P to P2 which shows an increase in equilibrium price. Also the quantity demanded would move from Q to Q2 which also indicates an increase in demand.
Answer:
I would buy the APPLE stock
Explanation:
Microsoft stock price = $173
dividends earned = $4, $5 and $5.5
value after 3 years = $190
Apple stock price = $285
Dividends earned = $5.5, $8.5 and $10.5
value after 3 years = $330
Applying the dividend discount model
IVO = present value of dividend + present value of terminal price
for Microsoft
IVO = ( 4/1.1 + (5/(1.1/2)) + ( 5.5/(1.1/3)) + ( 190/(1.1/3))
= $154.65
for Apple
IVO = ( 5.5/1.1 + ( 8.5/( 1.1/2)) + (10.5/(1.1/3)) + ( 330/(1.1/3))
= $267.8
Note: the IVO's are less than the current price of the stocks ( IVO = the intrinsic value of the shares ) but Microsoft shares are overpriced compared to apple
Answer:
Accounts receivable financing
Explanation:
The accounts receivables are used as a collateral to receive a loan from the bank or factor. The amount received are deducted from the loan assigned and the remainder are paid back to the firms. The interest rate is agreed between the factor and firm using invoice discounting. Whereas the factoring is the assigning of the responsibility of accounts receivables management to the other organization. So both of these are the ways through which accounts receivables are used to finance the company's working capital or long term projects.
