valkas [14]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: Decreasing marginal product.

Marginal product is the change in the level of output, when there will be an extra input employed in the production of a certain commodity.

So, Marginal Product = \frac{change\ in\ Q}{Change\ in\ I}

Where,

Q = Output

I = Input

Marginal product of 1st bag = 500

Marginal product of 2nd bag =  \frac{800-500}{2-1} = 300

Marginal product of 3rd bag =  \frac{900-800}{3-2} = 100

∴ From the above calculations, we can seen that as we employed one more bag of seeds as a result marginal product goes on diminishing.

Hence, Joan's production function exhibits decreasing marginal product.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

A Tying Contract

Explanation:

If a seller requires an intermediary to purchase a supplementary product to qualify to purchase the primary product the intermediary wishes to buy, it results in a tying contract. It is mostly treated as an illegal because it pushes  intermediary organization to buy other products if they wishes to purchase the products which is actually needed to be purchased. Some companies make it compulsory for their intermediaries in doing so. For example, if you have to buy 10 packs of Lays, then you must be buying 5 extra boxes of Pepsi as well. It is being done because of the power and market share that company is enjoying in the market, so they take its advantage.

Which of the following options strategies would be best for an investor interested in maintaining his long position in the marke
9966 [12]

Answer:

buying puts

Explanation:

A put option is a sale option. It gives the buyer the right (but not the obligation) to sell an asset in the future to the seller of the option at a previously determined price.

The owner or buyer of a put option benefits from the option if the underlying asset falls, that is, if when the put option expires, the asset (a share for example) has a price lower than the agreed price . In that case, the option buyer will exercise his right and sell the asset at the agreed price and then buy it at the current market price, earning the difference.

If the price turns out to be higher than the agreed price, known as the strike or strike price, the buyer will not exercise his right and will simply have lost the premium he paid to acquire the option. Therefore, your benefit may be unlimited, but your loss is limited to the premium you paid.
