General Motors operates several divisions in supplying cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs to its customers. Each division engages the

usual business participants, overlaps management functions with other divisions, and works in basically the same functional areas as all of the others. Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, Saturn, and GMC trucks are among the company's product lines. Its few major competitors include Ford, DaimlerChrysler, Nissan, Honda, and Toyota. Each automaker sells a large portion of all the products sold in the marketplace, and each differentiates its product lines. If the automobile industry included many rather than few manufacturers of differentiated their products, we might conclude that it was characterized by _____ conditions.
(a) Bipolistic
(b) Monopolistic
(c) Multipolistic

Answer: Monopolistic

             

Explanation: In simple words, monopolistic refers to a structure under which the industry constitutes many producers that sells differentiated products and no one product is the perfect substitute of the other.

In the given case, the firms are few but they are manufacturing slightly different automobiles for the customers so that they can build a brand image and customer loyalty.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

IN UK

Explanation:

Contents

Rules for access to waters after the UK leaves the EU

Quota allocations and fishing opportunities

North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) Convention Area

Regional fisheries management organisations (RFMOs)

Access to ports

EU and non-EU (third country) vessels landing into UK ports

Import and export of fishery products

Exporting UK-caught fish and fishery products to the EU

Importing EU-caught fish and fishery products to the UK

Labelling and marketing of fishery and aquaculture products

European Maritime and Fisheries Fund

Eels and eel products

Rules for access to waters after the UK leaves the EU

When the UK leaves the EU, the government will control and manage access to fish in UK waters. It will be responsible for managing the UK’s:

territorial waters (out to 12 nautical miles)

Exclusive Economic Zone (out to 200 nautical miles or the median line with other states)

The UK government will make sure that fisheries control and enforcement continue.

UK waters

There will be no change to your rights and responsibilities if you have a UK-registered vessel fishing in UK waters. You must continue to comply with the law and the conditions of your licence, including the economic link criteria.

Non-UK-registered vessels will no longer have automatic access to UK waters. This will be subject to any existing agreements covering territorial waters.

EU and non-EU (third country) waters

There will be no automatic access for UK-registered vessels to fish in EU or non-EU (third country) waters. This will be subject to any existing agreements covering territorial waters.

Quota allocations and fishing opportunities

If you’re a UK quota holder, the UK fisheries administrations will tell you what your allocation will be. They aim to do this in October 2019.

The government will also confirm arrangements for:

non-quota shellfish (scallops, edible crabs and spider crabs)

demersal species under the Western Waters effort regime (demersal species live mainly on or near the sea floor)

There will be no automatic access for:

the UK Fisheries Administrations to exchange fishing opportunities with EU member states

EU member states to exchange fishing opportunities with the UK

North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) Convention Area

You can prepare for the UK joining the NEAFC. For UK-registered vessels to continue fishing in the convention area, and landing into the EU, you must hold a current UK domestic licence. You’ll need this before you can apply for an international licence from the relevant fisheries authority.

Please contact your local fisheries authority office if you want further guidance on fishing internationally. You’ll also need to register with the NEAFC’s electronic Port State Control system and complete the Port State Control 1 forms.

Regional fisheries management organisations (RFMOs)

The UK will join all relevant RFMOs as quickly as possible - it will no longer be a member of RFMOs through EU membership. The joining process may take up to 6 months.

During this time, UK vessels may not be able to fish in international waters covered by RFMOs. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) will keep fishermen informed of progress and what the outcome of a decision will mean in practice.

Access to ports

If you have a UK-registered vessel, you’ll no longer have an automatic right to land fish in any EU port. You’ll be allowed access to EU designated ports for:

port services

landings

transhipment

the use of market facilities (where vessels meet EU requirements on illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing)

You must notify the relevant Fisheries Monitoring Centre of your intention to arrive into a designated port. You must notify vessel and catch-related information

Assume that a war breaks out abroad, and foreign investors choose to invest more in a large safe country, the United States. The
goldenfox [79]

Answer: the U.S. real interest rate and net exports will both rise.

Explanation: Due to the ongoing war abroad, there would be a reduction in production of goods and services in the affected countries and a rise in the production of goods and services in the safe haven country (US) leading to increased levels of export to meet the demand.

War affects investments negatively. As a result, investments are also moved to the US for safety. However, pressure on US producers and eventual shortage due to increased exports, would lead to inflation and increase in prices of goods and services. To mitigate these effects and to reduce the supply of money, government would increase interest rates.

This explains why both interest rates and export both rise.

Decide whether you agree or
Leona [35]

Answer:

A. Disagree

B. Disagree

C. Disagree

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Demand is elastic if a small change in price leads to a greater change in quantity demanded. The absolute value of elastic demand is usually greater than 1.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on the quantity demanded. The absolute value of inelastic demand is usually less than 1.

Demand is unitary, if a change in price has the same proportional effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of unitary elasticity of demand is equal to 1.

The absolute value of elasticity for cocaine is 0.2 which indicates that it has an inelastic demand, if price increases, there would be no change in the quantity demanded. Amount spent on cociaine would increase and producers revenue would rise.

The absolute value of elasticity for Christmas three is 1.3 which indicates that it has an elastic demand. If price falls, the quantity demanded would rise and revenue earned by sellers would rise as a result.

When elasticity of demand is unitary, an increase in price leads to the same proportional increase in revenue.

What is the value today of receiving $5,000 at the end of six years, assuming an interest rate of 8% compounded semiannually?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$3,122.96

Explanation:

Future value = 5000

i = 8%

n = 6

m = 2

Present Value = FV(1+i/m)^mn

Present Value = 5,000(1+0.08/2)^-2*6

Present Value = 5,000(1.04)^-12

Present Value = 5,000 / (1.04)^12

Present Value = 5,000 / 1.6010322

Present Value = 3122.985284118583

Present Value = $3,122.96
