Answer:
4.5%
Explanation:
Stock R (Beta) = 1.5
Stock S (Beta) = 0.75
Expected rate of return on an average stock (Rm)= 10%
Risk free rate (Rf) = 4%
Required Return (Re) = Rf +(Rm-Rf) B
Required Return = 0.04 + (0.10-0.04) B
Required Return = 0.04 + 0.06B
Stock R = 0.04 + (0.06 * 1.50)
Stock R = 0.04 + 0.09
Stock R = 0.13
Stock R = 13%
Stock S = 0.04 + (0.06 * 0.75)
Stock S = 0.04 + 0.045
Stock S = 0.085
Stock S = 8.5%
Here, the more risky stock is R and less risky stock is S. Since, R has more beta than the Stock S.
= 13% - 8.5%
= 4.5%
Answer:
0.875
Explanation:
The income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income.
Income elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in income
14% / 16% = 0.875
Demand is inelastic because the coefficient of elasticity is less than one.

Answer:
a) decrease in equilibrium price and an increase in equilibrium quantity.
Explanation:
As the input cost decreases for the companies the the supply of the goods increases hence the supply curve shifts rightwards.In the curve at the new equilibrium point the equilibrium price decreases and the equilibrium quantity increases.
Think it like if cost of creating anything is decreased for a company then the company will create more products .So there will be more products in the market.So to clear the products in the market the price will be reduced and the quantity of the product is more than before.

Explanation:
The Dominant Strategy in a game is the strategy that a player will choose that will provide them with the highest payoff regardless of what the other player does.
In the above, the dominant strategy will be for RAPHAEL to choose LEFT.
By choosing left Raphael makes a payoff of 4 if Susan picks Left as well and a Payoff of 6 if Sudan picks Right. This is better than him picking Right and he will get a Payoff of 3 if Susan chooses Right as well.
The Nash Equilibrium is the strategy where both are making the best that they can given the strategy of the other player and deviating from it will give them less pay out.
The dominant strategy therefore is for RAPHAEL to choose LEFT and for SUSAN to choose RIGHT.
This is because Raphael will pick Left as it maximises their payoff and Susan will then pick a strategy that gives her the highest payoff based on Raphael's decision which is to go RIGHT.
