Answers how will our employees behave
Answer: A. $250 million
Explanation:
The firm is a Monopoly and is lobbying Congress to remain that way. As a monopoly it makes $10 million a year and wants to remain a monopoly for the next 25 years.
Assuming there is no discount rate which means that the value of money stays the same over the 25 years, if they succeed in Congress, they have a chance to make a total profit of,
= 10 million * 25 years
= $250 million
If the maximum amount the firm can make if the lobbying is successful is $250 million, this is the maximum they will pay to lobby for a deterrence to entry. If they pay any amount more than $250 million, they will be making a loss and therefore it would make no sense to spend that amount of the lobbying.
Answer:
The market price is $12.81 per share.
Explanation:
The price of the stock today can be calculated using the constant growth model of DDM as the dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate. The formula to calculate the price of the stock under constant growth model is,
P0 = D1 / r-g
Where,
- D1 is the Dividend for the next period or D0 * (1+g)
- r is the required rate of return
- g is the growth rate in dividends
P0 = 2.44 * (1+0.05) / (0.25 - 0.05)
P0 = $12.81
Answer:
- $1,099,890 billion.
Explanation:
Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) = 0.990
Tax multiplier = - MPC ÷ (1 - MPC)
= - 0.990 ÷ (1 - 0.990)
= - 9
9
change in GDP = Change in taxes × Tax multiplier
= $11110 × (-99)
= - $1,099,890
the minus sign shows a decrease
Hence, the change in equilibrium GDP is - $1,099,890 billion.
