Answer: Option C

                                     

Explanation: In simple words, inelastic demand refers to a situation when the demand of the buyer does not change as per the price of the commodity. Thus, the price does not increase or decrease with decrease or increase in demand.

Hence the farmers should decrease the supply as there would be no profit for them to supply a product that has an inelastic demand.

given data

annual dividend of $3.73

increases dividend = 3.40 percent annually

stock price = $43.96 per share

to find out

What is the company's cost of equity

solution

we will use here Gordon model for compute company's cost of equity that is

market value = \frac{dividend* ( 1+growth\ rate)}{cost\ of\ equity - Growth\ rate}         ........................1

put here value we get

43.96 = \frac{3.73* ( 1+0.034)}{cost\ of\ equity - 0.034}

Tracy consumes dress shoes​ (D) and casual Crocs​ (C). Her marginal utility from consuming casual Crocs is MU Subscript Upper CM
Llana [10]

Answer:

The optimal bundle is 6 pairs of dress shoes and 3 pairs of Crocs.

Explanation:

From the question,

Allowance (M) = $450; Price of dress shoes, Pd = $50; Price of crocs, Pc = $50

Note: MRS-price ratio, MUC- marginal utility from consuming casual Crocs ,MUD- marginal utility from consuming dress shoes

Optimal bundle is determined where MRS = Price ratio

MRS = MUC/MUD = 20DC/10C2 = 2D/C

Price ratio = Pd/Pc = 50/50 = 1

So, 2D/C = 1

       Therefore, C = 2D

Budget constraint:  M = Pd*D + Pc*C

So, 50D + 50*(2D) = 450

      50D + 100D = 150D = 450

So, D = 450/150 = 3

C = 2D = 2*3 = 6

Suppose an investment offers to triple your money in 24 months (don't believe it). What rate of return per quarter are you being
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

30.77%

Explanation:

Assume investment = $1

Assume mount after 24 months = $5

Number of quarters in 24 months = 24/4 = 6

Future value = P*(1+r)^n; Where P is payment, r is interest rate per period, n is number of periods

5000 = 1*(1+i)^6

1*(1+i) = 5^(1/6)

1+i = 1.30766048601

i = 1.30766048601 - 1

i = 0.30766048601

i = 30.77%

So, the rate of return per quarter being offered is 30.77%

Assume that the economy grows by 3 percent, total factor productivity grows by 2 percent, and the labor force grows at 2 percent
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

correct option is A. True

Explanation:

given data

economy grows = 3 percent

total factor productivity grows = 2 percent

labor force grows = 2 percent

labor contributes = 40 percent

stock of capital rise = 0.33 percent

solution

we apply here Economy growth % formula that is

Economy growth % = total factor productivity + labor contributes × labor force grows + ( 1- labor contributes ) stock of capital   .............1

put here value

3% = 2% + 40% (2%) + 60% C

3% = 2.8 + 0.6 × C

C = \frac{0.2}{0.6}  

C = 33.33 %

so given statement is true
