Answer:
At one time, the centrally planned economy of China encouraged farmers to produce iron in their backyards, rather than have factories make iron. This proved unsuccessful, since most of the farmers' iron was of poor quality. Why do you think this approach was unsuccessful? How could this experiment become a success in a free market economy?
The reason why the approach whereby farmers make iron in their backyard could not work out is as a result of not being inclined in that market as they are only skilled in agriculture, also they do not understand the rhetorics of the business.
The experiment would be a success in a free market as anyone is allowed to sell such product, this gives room for competition and helps to price reduction which is good for the consumers, also it would help in improvement of such product's quality because of competition involved

Answer:
Option A.
Includes partnering rather than competing with existing distributors
Explanation:
Through internet retailing, a business can partner with other distributors and enlist the products of the distributors on their website along side their products.They can charge a fee for each product sold via their platform, which can serve as additional revenue to the business, without much extra costs. This is because the platform is already available.
This is the business model that companies such as Amazon apply. They enlist products of other businesses on their online platform, sell them and make some profit for themselves.
This is what gives internet retailing a strong appeal.
Answer:
P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00
Explanation:
The two stage growth model of DDM will be used to calculate the price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow over time with two different growth rates. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The formula for price of the stock today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [ (D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n ]
Where,
- D0 is the dividend today or most recently paid dividend
- g1 is the initial growth rate which is 20%
- g2 is the constant growth rate which is 8%
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2.5 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.15) + 2.5 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.15)^2 +
2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.15)^3 +
[(2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 * (1+0.08) / (0.15 - 0.08) / (1+0.15)^3)
P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00
