Answer:
c. The equilibrium quantity is less than the socially optimal quantity.
Explanation:
Externalities are positive / negative side effects to other parties, which are not monetarily valued & compensated.
Positive Externalities cause extra positive side effect, have extra social benefit apart from private benefit. Their free market unregulated equilibrium under estimates their Total Benefit (considering only private benefit , ignoring social benefit). So the equilibrium quantity is also under estimated. Hence, Equilibrium quantity is less than socially optimal quantity.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option C: the higher the price the higher the quantity that the sellers are willing to supply.
Explanation:
To begin with, to understand why the supply curve slopes upwards we need to understand that <u>there is a direct relationship</u> between the quantity that the suppliers are willing to sell and tha price of the product offered and therefore that when the price increases the amount that the suppliers will be willing to offer will increase due to that direct relationship and that is reason why the supply curve slopes upwards.
Answer:
Sharpen Ratio = <u> Rp - Rf</u>
standard deviation of portfolio
= <u>13.8% - 3.6%</u>
173.11%
= 0.05892
= 0.059
workings
Return of portfolio = Ra*wa + Rb*Wb
= 15%*0.6 + 12%*0.4
= 9% + 4.8% = 13.8%
Standard deviation of portfolio = square root of variance
= √ stdA²wa² + stadB²wb² + 2wawbcorrAB
= √(24%*0.6)² +(14%*0.4)² + 2*0.6*0.4*1.27
= √207.36% + 31.36% + 0.6096
= √2.9968
= 1.73
= 173.11%
