Explain the effects of each of the following factors on the market price and quantity of cell phones available in the market:
An increase in consumers’ income = if there is an increase in consumers income, there may be a decrease in the cell phones available for purchase because more people would have money to purchase phones. If more people are willing and able to purchase phones, the market price may increase on the device.
Technical improvements that reduce production costs = If production costs of the devices go down, the market price may decrease making the phones more affordable. If phones become more affordable and decrease in price, the quantity sold may rise to reflect the change.
A sharp decline in the cost of making fixed-line calls = if the cost of making fixed-line calls decreases, there may not be any change to the market price of phones however their may be an increase in quantity sold.

Answer:
d. Selling Price
Explanation:
Break even point is calculated as 
Thus, break even point in units only in two cases,
- Fixed cost is reduced that is decreased,
- Contribution per unit is increased.
Now, here the options are
a. Increase in units sales volume is of no relevance as will not impact the fixed cost or contribution per unit.
b. Increase in fixed cost will result in higher break even point, as numerator in the fraction will increase.
c. Increase in unit variable cost will ultimately decrease the contribution thus, it is of no relevance.
d. Increase in selling price will increase the contribution per unit, that is the increase in denominator value in fraction, thus, break even units will decrease.
Correct option is
d. Selling Price
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Current price is
= D1 ÷ (Required return - Growth rate)
= ($1.20 × 1.04 ÷ (0.1 - 0.04)
= $20.8
b. Now the price in three year is
P3 = Current price × (1 + Growth Rate)^3
= $20.8 × (1.04)^3
= $23.40
c. For price in 10 year it is
P10 = Current price × (1 + Growth Rate)^10
= $20.80 × (1.04)^10
= $30.79
We simply applied the above formula
Answer:
liquidity premium theory
Explanation:
The liquidity premium theory states that those that invest in bonds do prefer high liquid as well as securities that are short-dated so that it can be sold fast compare to long-dated ones. It states that investors do get compensation for higher default risk when there is change in interest rate.
It should be noted that The liquidity premium theory of the term structure states the following: the interest rate on a long-term bond will equal an average of short-term interest rates expected to occur over the life of the long-term bond plus a term premium that responds to supply and demand conditions for that bond.
