Answer:

C. <u>at least several</u>

Explanation:

Competitive advantage refers to a favorable situation or position a business enjoys over it's competitors owing to it's specialization or strength in performing a specific operation.

For example, in case of telecommunication, one company's competitive advantage could be superior network coverage with lower call drops than it's competitors.

In order to survive and grow, a business should try and gain competitive advantages in at least several fields and yet at the same time retain and maintain those competitive advantages over a period.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Closed-End Fund

Explanation:

Close-End Funds raise money through an IPO and then its stocks are traded on secondary markets. There are no new issuance of stocks, nor there are repurchases of stocks, therefore, the price of their stocks is determined by the market.

nper is the number of coupons the bond has left to pay(23 years*2)

pmt is the semiannual coupon of the bond=$1000*5.3%*6/12=26.5

pv is the curren price=$1000*105%=$1050

2.47% is the semiannual yield

annual yield=2.47% *2=4.94%

Black_prince [1.1K]

Nina said she was still thinking about her son's proposal and had not decided yet, so there was no contract.

Oral contracts is a spoken agreement between two parties that may be legally binding.

Breach of oral contract can be hard to prove since it is not written down.
