Answer:
a) Portfolio ABC's expected return is 10.66667%.
Explanation:
Some information is missing:
Stock Expected Standard Beta
return deviation
A 10% 20% 1.0
B 10% 10% 1.0
C 12% 12% 1.4
The expected return or portfolio AB = (1/2 x 10%) + (1/2 x 10%) = 10% (it is the same as the required rate for stock A or B)
The expected return or portfolio ABC = (weight of stock A x expected return of stock A) + (weight of stock B x expected return of stock B) + (weight of stock C x expected return of stock C) = (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 12%) = 3.333% + 3.333% + 4% = 10.667% <u>THIS IS CORRECT</u>
Options B, C, D and E are wrong.
Answer: .B. has a large dead weight loss
Explanation:
The labor market basically has two forces pulling against each other, we have firms who demand labor and we have workers who are Suppliers of labor. Firms will want to hire more labor at a lower wage price while more workers will want to work when the wage price is higher as the law of supply stipulates
The law of supply states that more is supplied at a higher price, now using the same law on the supply of labor we conclude that more labor will be supplied at a higher Wage which represents Price. A Labor Market is equilibrium when Quantity Demanded Equals Quantity Supplied. Elasticity measures the sensitivity of Demand or Supply to Price Changes. The amount of Change in the Quantity supplied or demanded depends on how elastic the demand or supply is to wage Price changes
When Supply Curve is highly elastic means a small change in wage price will have a huge impact on the Total amount Labor supplied. When government imposes Tax on labor, The Wage price will decrease and workers will now earn a wage net of tax,
The Supply curve is highly elastic meaning a small decrease in wages caused by a tax imposed on labor will only lead to a huge decrease in the quantity of labor supplied because more people will choose not work. The tax imposed on labor creates a huge dead weight loss in the labor market because the market is no longer in equilibrium. The Quantity of labor supplied is far less than the quantity of labor demanded.
Answer:
Technology improves production.
Explanation:
Supply refers to the quantity of goods and services produced and offered to the market for sale.
There are several factors that could cause the supply curve to shift to the right, one of which is technology improves production. An improvement in technology will phase out manual or slow process of production hence shifts supply curve to the right.
When government increases tax on a business, if will affect the income that should have accrued to the business hence supply curve inward. An increase in input prices will affect production cost thereby shifting supply to the left. Also when there is a decline in the numbers of consumers, it will shift supply curve inward because it is these consumers that will purchase whatever that is produced and supplied to the market.
Answer:
a. $700,000
86%
c. No
Explanation:
a. Jacobs will earn $700,000 per year. This equals the normal salary for a designer, $100,000, plus the economic rent he collects for his special talent, $600,000.
6/7 or 0.857 or 86% of his salary is thus economic rent. This is found by 600,000/700,000
b. The answer is No. If Jacobs’s employer withholds some of the additional revenue it takes in as a result of hiring him, some other advertising company will offer him a higher salary and still manage to earn an economic profit. Bidding for Jacobs will continue until firms are indifferent between paying him $600,000 and hiring any other designer for $100,000.
