Answer:

(a) $18,000

(b) $3,600

Explanation:

(a) Profit would be:

= (No. of shares × Undervalued) - (No. of shares × Overvalued)

= (1,800 × $16) - (1,800 × $6)

= $28,800 - $10,800

= $18,000

(b) Only half your order will be filled.

With rationing (and being an uninformed investor) we expect our profits:

= (No. of shares × Undervalued) - (No. of shares × Overvalued)

= (900 × $16) - (1,800 × $6)

= $14,400 - $10,800

= $3,600

Suppose a third firm enters the market. If they all don't cheat, then they split the profits three ways so that each firm gets 2
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: Harder to sustain cooperation

Explanation:

When the number of firms in an oligopolistic market increases as is the case here, cooperation becomes harder because profits become smaller so companies start to become more selfish.

Also in this scenario, the cheating firm has the incentive to do so because the profit is so much higher than sharing so companies will always be looking to cheat in order to make this profit. The other firms would reply by reducing prices and all of them would suffer.

If trade between nations is prohibited, a. nations will be unable to specialize in what they are good at and therefore end up co
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a. nations will be unable to specialize in what they are good at and therefore end up consuming less

Explanation:

There is no country that can produce all goods and services efficiently (at the least cost ). It is for this reason that trade between countries becomes necessary. Trade between countries gives countries the opportunity to concentrate on the production of goods in which it is efficient in production and purchase goods for which it produces at higher costs.

If trade between nations is prohibited, countries would have to produce goods that they are both efficient and ijefficient in their production, resources would be wasted, specialisation in the production of goods would not occur and consumption would fall.

I hope my answer helps you
