The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
An oligopoly can cause market failure because companies that form the oligopoly do not allow other companies to enter and compete in the market. This action limits consumers to choose from a variety of options, including quality, the best price, and service.
Often, oligopoly associates the strongest or more powerful companies in order to wipe out other minor competitors. They want to establish a dominant presence that affects prices and consumers participation.
Oligopoly practices result in inefficiency and instability in the market. That is why oligopolies are not good for the economy.
The automobile industry is mostly associated with an oligopoly.
When a market is controlled by just a few numbers of companies, but none of them is above the others, we are talking about an oligopoly. They can collude intentionally or not, to establish prizes and to not let other companies compete with them.
Answer:
∑( Cash flow × PVF) = 79,347
Explanation:
Given:
Opportunity cost = 9%
Cash flow for 1-5 years = 10,000
Cash flow for 6-10 years = 16,000
Now,
Present value factor (PVF) = 
here, n is the year
For year 1 to 5
Year Cash flow PVF Cash flow × PVF
1 10000 0.9174 9174
2 10000 0.8417 8417
3 10000 0.7722 7722
4 10000 0.7084 7084
5 10000 0.6499 6499
for years 6 to 10
Year Cash flow PVF Cash flow × PVF
6 16000 0.5963 9540.8
7 16000 0.547 8752
8 16000 0.5019 8030.4
9 16000 0.4604 7366.4
10 16000 0.4224 6758.4
========================================================
∑( Cash flow × PVF) = 79,347
========================================================
taking the PVF to 5 decimal places will make 79,347 ≈ 79,348
for a business to be viable,it must make a good or proper sales
Answer:
E-travel-1.15
Pricecheck-0.38
Explanation:
Debt to equity ratio compares the finance provided by outsiders viz-a-viz that which is provided by the original owners of the company,the shareholders, in order to determine whether or not the company is at risk of slow growth if outsiders withdraw their funds.
Debt to equity=total liabilities/equity
E-Travel:
total liabilities is $2,854,475
total equity $2,482,681
debt-equity ratio=$2,854,475/$2,482,681=1.15
Debtholders provided more capital funding than the stockholders
Pricecheck:
total liabilities is $472,610
total equity is $1,257,614
debt-to-equity ratio=$472,610/$1,257,614 =0.38
