Answer:
the answer for the first question is $166667.
the answer for the second question is $210526
the answer for the third question is An inverse.
Explanation:
given information that i will invest in a $10000 scholarship that will pay forever.
the interest rate charged is 6.00% per annum therefore this is a perpetuity present value problem where there is streams of income forever therefore we use the formula :
Pv of perpetuity= Cf/r
where Cr is the cash flows payed by the single investment forever in this case $10000 then r is the interest rate of the investment amount which is 6% in this case.
Pv of Perpetuity= $10000/6%
=$166667 therefore i must invest this amount to get the scholarship running with streams of $10000 forever.
in the second problem if now the interest rate is changed from 6% to 4.75% then the amount to be invested would be :
Pv of perpetuity = $10000/4.75%
=$210526 therefore this is the amount to be invested for a forever $10000 stream of incomes for a scholarship.
the relationship is indirect cause as the interest rate decreases the present value of the perpetuity that must be invested increases.
Answer: A. Market Period.
B. Long Run
C. Short Run
Explanation:
A.Output and the number of firms are fixed
The MARKET PERIOD is a very short period that refers to a situation where all resources are FIXED. This means that Output itself is fixed and therefore cannot adjust to demand.
B.Plant capacity is flexible. Firms can enter and exit an industry.
This is the LONG RUN. A time where all resources are Variable. This means that factors such as Plant Capacity which is FIXED in the Short Run will simply be Variable and hence flexible in the long run. Other Firms are also free to enter or leave the Industry during this time.
C.Plant capacity and the number of firms are fixed. Firms can employ more labor if needed
This refers to the SHORT RUN which is a situation where AT LEAST one resource is FIXED and others are VARIABLE. As long as there is a Fixed Resource with some Variable Resources, it is the Short Run. Plant Capacity and Number of Firms are fixed but Labor is Variable. This makes this scenario a Short Run Scenario.

Calculating average cost of steak initially when only 5000 pounds was produced
Average cost= 50000/5000
AC= 10$
Now when 1 pound is added only 9$ is added in total cost so marginal cost
MC= 9$
From above calculations we can see that AC>MC
so we can say that the average cost of production is greater than marginal cost so it will be beneficial to produce more
