Answer:
C. the market demand curve understates the relative importance of the product and resources are therefore underallocated to its production.
Explanation:
Positive external benefits refer to third party positive side effects, above & beyond private marginal benefit to the concerned consumer.
Eg : Education - Its consumption not only affects the concerned person, but the positive trickle down to the people & society around.
Personal consumption decisions are based on : equalisation - of private marginal benefit (demand) curve & private marginal cost curve. However, goods having positive external benefits have real marginal benefit curve increased over private benefit curve, by the extent of extra marginal social benefit.
So, market demand (based on private marginal benefit) curve understates the importance of product, and resources are therefore underallocated to its production (due to undervaluation of demand).
Answer:
100 units
Explanation:
Given that,
Annual demand (D) = 500 units
Ordering cost (S) = $5 per order
Holding cost (H) = $0.50 per unit per year
Optimal order quantity(Q):
= 100 units
So, the optimal number of diamonds to be ordered is 100 units.

Answer:
The demand and the supply of loanable funds both remained the same.
Explanation:
If the interest rates rise, but both demand and supply of loanable funds remanin constant, this means that demand and supply remained the same.
This would be a problem in the real world, because when interest rates rise, what should happen is that the supply of funds rise, while demand falls, because a rise in interest rates makes investment more expensive since interset rates are simply the price of the loanable funds.
In many companies, the chief executive officer (CEO), who holds the top management position in the company, also serves as chairman of the board. This is often the case with companies that have grown rapidly and still retain the initial founder in those roles.
