Answer:
Mrs.Smith should continue to operate the business in the short run but shut down in the long run.
Explanation:
According to the shut down rule, at the profit-maximizing positive level of output, a business in a competitive market should continue to operate in the short-term if the price equals to or is greater than the average variable cost, but should shut down in the long term if the price is less than or equal to total cost. Here,
price = $8.10
avg variable cost = $8.00
avg total cost = $8.25
Mrs.Smith should continue to operate the business in the short run but shut down in the long run.
Answer:
Portfolio B has a higher return but more volatile stocks. However it depends on how the individual can tolerate risks.
Explanation:
Expected return= free return + Beta (Expected rate of return – risk free rate)
Portfolio A
6%+ +.8*6%
= 6%+4.8%= 10.8%
Portfolio B
6%+1.5(6%)
6%+9%= 15%
It depends on different factors. Portfolio B has a higher return but more volatile stocks. However it depends on how the individual can tolerate risks.
