Answer:
1. the prices of existing bonds would rise
Explanation:
General Interest rates and price of a bond are inversely related. The market interest rate also reflects an investors expected rate of return also referred to as yield to maturity i.e YTM.
Mathematically, price of a bond is the present value of it's future stream of coupon payments as well as principal repayments discounted at investors expected rate of return i.e YTM.
So, when market interest rates fall in general, this would lead to a rise in the price of bonds as general interest rates represent yield to maturity.
Answer:
$50.67 per share
Explanation:
using the discounted cash flow model, we can determine Arras's total value:
CF₀ = $7.6
CF₁ = $7.98
CF₂ = $8.379
CF₃ = $8.79795
CF₄ = $9.2378475
CF₅ = $9.699739875
CF₆ = $9.893734673
we must first find the terminal value at year 5 = $9.893734673 / (7% - 2%) = $197.874694
now we can discount the future cash flows:
firm's value = $7.98/1.07 + $8.379/1.07² + $8.79795/1.07³ + $9.2378475/1.07⁴ + $9.699739875/1.07⁵ + $197.874694/1.07⁵ = $7.458 + $7.319 + $7.182 + $7.048 + $6.916 + $141.081 = $177.004 million
the shareholders' share of the firm's value = $177.004 million - $25 million = $152.004 million
price per share = $152.004 million / 3 million shares = $50.668 ≈ $50.67 per share

ANSWER CHOICES
A. operating with decreasing returns to scale
B. a natural monopoly
C. a legal monopoly
D. monopolistically competitive
E. productively efficient
Answer:
Based on this data, the market for product Z is:
A. operating with decreasing returns to scale.
Explanation:
For the Average Revenue (Price) to equal the Average Total Cost (ATC) and enable the firms operating in the market to break-even, the firms must increase their production units from 2 million to 3.5 million units. The conclusion that the market for product Z is operating with decreasing returns to scale for a single supplier is because it will take a 75% increase in production for the average total cost to fall from $7 to $5 for the single producer. In other words, the percentage increase in production does not result in a proportionate decrease in average total cost.
