Options:
<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>
<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>
<em>c. Stay the same</em>
<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
 $41.66
Explanation:
Let us assume the dividend in year n be denoted by Dn and the Stock price by Pn
Given that,
D0 = $1.50
Now 
Growth rate for next 3 years 
g1 = 15%
D1 = D0 × (1 + g1) 
     = 1.50 × (1 + 0.15) 
    = 1.725
D2 = D1 × (1 + g1) 
= 1.725 × (1 + 0.15) 
= 1.984
D3 = D2 × (1 + g1) 
= 1.984 × (1 + 0.15) 
= 2.282
Subsequent Growth rate = g2 = 4%
Now  
 D4 = D3 × (1 + g2) 
      = 2.282 × (1 + 0.04) 
      = 2.373
So, According to Gordon's Growth Rate,
P3 = D4 ÷(r - g2)
P3 = 2.373 ÷ (0.09 - 0.04) 
     = $47.46
Now  
Value of Stock now  is 
= P0 
= D1 ÷ (1 + r) + D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2 + D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3 + P3 ÷ (1 + r )^3
= 1.725 ÷ (1 + 0.09) + 1.984 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^2 + 2.282 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3 + 47.46 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3
= $41.66

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
weekly demand = 72 units
no of weeks in 1 year = 48
Then; total demand = 72 × 48 = 3456 units
No of orders = 
= 
∴
The periodic review (P) = 
= 

= 0.041956 year
≅ 2 weeks
Z score based on 88 percent service level = NORMSINV(0.88) = 1.18
Here;
Lead time = 3 wks
P = 2 weeks
Thus protection interval = ( 3+2) weeks 
= 5 weeks 
Safety stock = z-score × std dev. of demand at (P+L) days
std dev =  = 2.236 × 18
 = 2.236 × 18
std dev = 40.248 units
Safety stock = 1.18 × 40.248
safety stock = 47.49 units
Safety stock ≅ 48 units 
Average demand during(P + L) = 5 × 72 units
= 360 units
Target inventory level = average demand + safety stock 
= 360 units + 48 units
= 408 units
