Answer: a) increase in the demand for Kindles.
Explanation: the substitution effect for substitute goods gives that, if the price of good A rises, the demand for good B rises. Since a substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another, they are goods that a consumer perceives as similar or are comparable, in such a way that having more of one good causes the consumer to desire less of the other good. From the viewpoint of price, and given that consumers always prefer to spend less in instances where two goods are substitutes, it then means that Kindle can be used and preferred in place of Nooks given that the price of Nooks had gone up. Therefore, increasing the price of Nooks causes a corresponding increase in the demand for Kindles.
Answer:
The expected price of the stock is $122.03
Explanation:
To calculate the expected price of the stock at the end of the year or at Year 1, we first need to determine the required rate of return on the stock. We will use the CAPM equation to calculate the required rate of return.
The required rate of return is calculated as,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rM is the return on market
r = 0.05 + 1 * (0.14 - 0.05)
r = 0.14
We already have the price of the stock today, the D1 and the required rate of return. Using the constant dividend growth model of DDM, we calculate the growth rate in dividends to be,
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
115 = 9 / (0.14 - g)
115 * (0.14 - g) = 9
16.1 - 115g = 9
16.1 - 9 = 115g
7.1 / 115 = g
g = 0.0617 or 6.17%
Using the same formula and replacing D1 with D2, we can calculate the price of the stock at the end of the year or at start of Year 1.
P1 = 9 * (1+0.0617) / (0.14 - 0.0617)
P1 = $122.03
<span>In the insurance market, this is referred to as adverse selection. Adverse selection is simply just a situation where the seller has information that the buyer does not have about an aspect of the product or its quality, or vice versa. When it comes to insurance, adverse selection is the likelihood of those who preform dangerous jobs or are high risk to get life insurance.</span>
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Sales = $27000
Less: sales returned = -$660
Less: discount at 2% = ($27000 - $660) × 2% = -$526.8
Net sales = $25813.2
b. Net sales = $25813.2
Less: cost of goods sold = $15000 - $400 = -$14600
Gross profit = $11213.2
Operating expense:
Less: Selling and administrative expenses = -$2835
Operating income = $8378.2
Non-operating items:
Less: Interest expense = ($200
Add: Gain on land Sales = $900
Net Income= $9078.2
c. The interest expense be shown on the statement of cash flows in the operating expenses section. It'll be recorded in the operating activities.
d. The sale of the land would be under the investing activity as it's capital asset of the business. Therefore, the full sales price of the land, $9,250, would be shown as a cash inflow from investing activities on the statement of cash flows.
Option B is the correct answer.
