Answer:

Event Dimension BP stock prices falling 25% during the first month after the oil spill. ECONOMIC.

The Economic dimension of the environment deals with production in the economy which means that it deals with business entities and the financial system. Dimension BP stock price falling therefore falls under her.

Using deep-se submersibles to take pictures of the oil leak a mile below the surface of the water. TECHNOLOGICAL.

The Technological dimension of the environment refers to anything related to the use of technology and using deep-sea submersibles to take pictures of the leak below the surface of the water will definitely fall under technology.

People moving from Louisiana to Oklahoma to avoid the effects of the spill. SOCIOCULTURAL.

Sociocultural dimension deals with human beings and how they relate with themselves and the environment around them. People therefore moving from Louisiana to Oklahoma will fall under here.

Alpha Company is looking at two different capital structures, one an all-equity firm and the other a levered firm with $4.6 m

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The break-even EBIT using EPS is $1,288,000.

Explanation:

the break-even EBIT using EPS is the EBIT that will brings EPS under two different capital structure equal.

Denot X is the EBIT.

* We have:

+ EPS in all-equity firm = X/460,000

+ EPS in levered firm = ( X - interest rate)/230,000 = ( X - 4,600,000 x 14%)/230,000 = (X - 644,000) / 230,000.

* We have the equation:

X/460,000 = (X-644,000)/230,000 <=> X/460,000 = 2.8 <=> X = $1,288,000.

So, the break-even EBIT using EPS is $1,288,000.

You want to buy a car, and a local bank will lend you $25,000. The loan will be fully amortized over 5 years (60 months), and th

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Monthly payment: 460.41 dollars

Effective rate: 4.07%

Explanation:

we will calculate the PTM of an annuity of 25,000 over 5 year at 4%

$PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\$

PV $25,000.00

time 60

rate 0.003333333

$25000 \div \frac{1-(1+0.003333)^{-60} }{0.003333} = C\\$

C $ 460.413

Now we need to know the effective rate, which is the same as 4% compounding monthly:

$(1+0.04/12)^{60} = (1+ r_e)^{5}\\r_e = \sqrt[5]{(1+0.04/12)^{60}} - 1$

effective rate = 0.040741543 = 4.07%

Melanie invests $4,000 into an account offering 4% interest compounded annually. Gina invests $4,000 into a simple interest savi

denpristay [2]

Answer:

$4,900 (From simple interest method)

Explanation:

Given:

Amount invested (p) = $4,000

Interest rate for simple interest (r) = 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045

Interest rate for Compound interest (i) = 4%

Number of year (t) = 5

Computation of amount from simple interest method:

Amount = p(1+rt)

Amount = $4,000[1+(0.045 × 5)]

Amount = $4,000[1+0.225]

Amount = $4,000[1.225]

Amount (from simple interest method) = $4,900

Computation of amount from compound interest method:

$Amount = p(1+i)^t\\\\Amount = 4,000(1+0.04)^5\\\\Amount = 4,000(1.04)^5\\\\Amount = 4,000(1.2166529)\\\\Amount = 4,866.616\\\\$

Therefore, Amount from simple interest method is higher .

Comment les marchés imparfaitement concurrentiels fonctionnent-ils?

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Dans un environnement de concurrence imparfaite, les entreprises vendent différents produits et services, fixent leurs propres prix, se battent pour des parts de marché et sont souvent protégées par des barrières à l'entrée et à la sortie, ce qui rend plus difficile pour les nouvelles entreprises de les concurrencer.
