In this market, it can be concluded that at a price level of $100 per unit, there is <em>C. a shortage of 0.4 million units.</em>
- This market shortage occurs because 0.4 million units of the goods were not supplied. There is excess demand and shortage in supply.
- The market demand increased from the equilibrium quantity of 5 million units to 5.2 million while the market supply reduced from the equilibrium quantity of 5 million units to 4.8 million.
- The shortage of 0.4 million units results from the difference between the quantity demanded (5.2 million) and the quantity supplied (4.8 million) as a result of reduced price.
Thus, the market shortage shows the reduced willingness of suppliers to supply goods at the new price of $100 per unit instead of at the acceptable equilibrium price of $120 per unit.

Answer:
$200 (a deduction)
Explanation:
The accounting standard for inventories IAS 2 requires that inventory be carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory will initially be recognized at the cost ( which includes the cost of the item and other associated cost such as freight ). However, its carrying amount must be reviewed to ensure it is not higher than the realizable value.
Given that the selling price is now $15 which is lower than the cost of $16, it means that the amount that can be realized from the sale of a unit is $15.
= $16 - $15
= $1
As such, an adjustment in form of a reduction of the carrying amount of $1 per unit is required. The amount of the lower cost of market adjustment the company must make as a result of this decline in value
= $1 × 200 units
= $200 (a deduction)
Answer:
7.44 %
Explanation:
The Yield to Maturity (YTM) is the Interest rate that makes the Present Value of Coupons and Principle equal the Market Price or Current Price of the Bond.
The Yield to Maturity can be calculated using a financial calculator as follows :
PV = - $100
N = (15 -2) × 2 = 26
PMT = ($100 × 7.30%) ÷ 2 = $3.65
FV = $103
P/YR = 2
YTM = ?
Therefore, Inputting the values in the calculator as shown gives the Yield to Maturity is 7.44 %.
Answer:
The price of the stock is $38.33
Explanation:
The dividend growth is zero on a preferred stock thus its dividends are just like a perpetuity as the stocks have no defined life. The formula for the price or value of a perpetuity or the zero growth model is,
P0 = D / r
Where,
D is the dividend
r is the required rate of return
Thus, the price of the stock is:
P0 = 3.22 / 0.084 = $38.33
