o-na [289]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Brazil only.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the ability of an organization or individual to produce at lower opportunity costs. This is achieved by introducing efficient productivity strategies or achieving economies of scale.

For the case given, the comparative advantage of Brazil and Chile is based on labor productivity only. Then:

The comparative advantage of Chile on sugar = $\frac{2 units of sugar}{5 units of coffee}$ = 0.4
The comparative advantage of Brazil on sugar = $\frac{1 unit of sugar}{2 units of coffee}$ = 0.5

Thus, Brazil has a comparative advantage over Chile on sugar.

stich3 [128]

Answer:

$565

Explanation:

First of all, the person that receives a gift does not pay taxes for it. Also, proceeds from a life insurance policy are not taxable either. Municipal bonds are not taxed by the federal government.

This means that Juanita's taxable income = $400 interests from Treasury bonds + $165 interests from savings account = $565.

You have $13,000 to invest in a stock portfolio. Your choices are Stock X with an expected return of 13 percent and Stock Y with

kolezko [41]

Answer:

You should invest $8,970 in stock X and $4,030 in stock Y.

Explanation:

These can be estimated as follows:

PER = (ERX * wX) + (ERY * wY) ....................... (1)

Where,

PER = Portfolio expected return = 11.45%, or 0.1145

ERX = Expected return of X = 13%, or 0.13

ERY = Expected retun of Y = 8%, or 0.08

wX = Weight of X = ?

wY = Weight of Y = 1 - wX = ?

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

0.1145 = [0.13 * wX] + [0.08 * (1 - wX)]

0.1145 = 0.13wX + [0.08 - 0.08wX]

0.1145 = 0.13wX + 0.08 - 0.08wX

0.1145 - 0.08 = 0.13wX - 0.08wX

0.0345 = 0.05wX

wX = 0.0345 / 0.05

wX = 0.69

Since wY = 1 - wX

Therefore,

wY = 1 - 0.69

wY = 0.31

Total amount to invest = $13,000

Investment in stock X = Amount to invest * 0.69 = $13,000 * 0.69 = $8,970

Investment in stock Y = Amount to invest * 0.31 = $13,000 * 0.31 = $4.030

Therefore, you should invest $8,970 in stock X and $4,030 in stock Y.
