Answer: No, it is not easy for new firms to enter to market where there is oligopolis competition.

Explanation:

Oligopolis is a market condition in which few firms take the advantage to run their business and they do not allow small competitors to interfere and put barriers and obstacles for small competitors so that they cannot compete with them and do not earn anything. Those powerful competitors can make up the huge amount of profit. Also few sellers attain significant power in the market and prevent other.

Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.

Arturiano [62]

Answer: $8.81

Explanation:

To solve this, add the present values of the dividends from years 3, 4 and 5 and then add the present value of the terminal value of the stock at year 5.

Year 3 dividend = $0.50

Year 4 dividend = 0.50 * (1 + 49%) = $0.745

Year 5 dividend = 0.745 * 1.49 = $1.11005

= Dividend in year 3 / (1 + required rate of return)³ + Dividend in year 4 / (1 + required rate of return)⁴ + Dividend in year 5 / (1 + required rate of return)⁵ + (Dividend in year 5 * (1 + growth rate) / ( required rate of return - growth rate ) ) / (1 + required rate of return)⁵

= 0.5 / 1.16³ + 0.745/1.16⁴ + 1.11005/1.16⁵ + ( 1.11005 / (16% - 9%)) / 1.16⁵

= $8.81

A bond par value is $2,000 and the coupon rate is 5.8 percent. The bond price was $1,946.47 at the beginning of the year and $1,

mestny [16]

Answer:

The bond's real return for the year is 4.54%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the bond's real return for the year we would have to calculate first the nominal rate of return as follows:

nominal rate of return=(price end+coupon-price beginning/price beginning)*100

nominal rate of return=(price end+coupon rate*par value-price beginning/price beginning)*100

nominal rate of return=($1,981.96+0.058*$2,000-$1,946.47/$1,946.47)*100

nominal rate of return=7.78%

Therefore, in order to calculate the bond's real return for the year we would have to use the following formula:

(1+real rate of return)*(1+inflation)=(1+nominal rate of return)

(1+real rate of return)=(1+nominal rate of return)/(1+inflation)

(1+real rate of return)=(1+0.078)/(1+0.031)

(1+real rate of return)=1.0454

real rate of return=4.54%

The bond's real return for the year is 4.54%
