The answer is explained in detail below

Explanation:

a_{KC} = 2

a_{LC} = 2

a_{KF} = 3

a_{LF} = 1

Labor, L = 2000; Capital, K = 3000  

Labour constraint,

2Q_{c} + Q_{F} \leq 2000

Capital constraint ,

2Q_{c} + 3Q_{F} \leq 3000  

Solving the equation further, we get

Q_{F} \leq 2000 - 2Q_{C}

Q_{F} \leq 1000 - \frac{2}{3} Q_{C}

  • The range for the relative price of cloth such that the economy produces both cloth and food is  2/3 and 2
  • Low cloth production → economy will use relatively more labor to  produce cloth → opportunity cost of cloth is 2/3rd units of food.
  • High cloth  production → economy dips on labor → taking capital away from food  production → raising opportunity cost of cloth to 2 units of food.  
  • If relative price of cloth lies between 2/3 and  2 units of food, the economy  produces both goods.
  • If the price of cloth decreases below 2/3 → complete  specialization in food production → low compensation for producing cloth
  • If the price of cloth  rises above 2 → complete specialization in cloth production → low compensation for producing  food

What is the value of a zero-coupon bond with a yield to maturity of 9 percent, a par value of $1,000, and 10 years to maturity?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

$414.64

Explanation:

For computing the value of zero-coupon bond we need to apply the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 9% ÷ 2 = 4.5%

NPER = 10 years × 2 = 20 years  

PMT = $0

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after applying the above formula, the present value is $414.64
