Answer:

price-taking assumption.

free entry assumption.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is one in which different firms compete for consumers of their products. The characteristics of the perfectly competitive market are:

- products are nearly identical

- all the firms are price takers. That is they are not able to determine price independently

- buyer knowledge of information about products is perfect and available to all

- free entry and exit to the market

- resources are perfectly mobile

In the given scenario above two of these rules are not obeyed.

Alcoa was effectively the sole seller of aluminum because the firm owned nearly all of the aluminum ore reserves in the world.

So they determine the price ( they are not price takers)

Also since they own nearly all the aluminium reserves there is no free entry for new firms

Ted purchased an annuity today that will pay $1,000 a month for five years. He received his first monthly payment today. Allison
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The correct option is E,Ted's annuity has a higher present value than Allison's

Explanation:

Both annuities do not have equal amount today as $1000 received today is higher in value terms than $1000 receivable in a month's time since cash receivable earlier is much more valued than the one receivable later.

Ted's annuity is an  annuity due not an ordinary annuity

Allison's annuity is an ordinary annuity not annuity due

Allison's annuity has a lower present value than Ted's and not the other way round.

The only correct statement is option E,since Ted is expected to receive $1000 today, his annuity has a higher present value compared to Allison's

=20,000=v80-100000

   v80=100,000.00+20,000

    v80=120,000

         v=  120,000/80

Volume =1,500
