Answer:
<u>fostering competition</u>
Explanation:
By deciding to focus on a particular niche these smaller firms in effect foster competitions among other larger firms.
For example, if in a market for shoes, a small firm A, that is newly established decides to focus only on selling shoes for children after recognizing they cannot match up with an existing larger company B that sells a variety of shoes (both children and adult shoes). At a point in time when a number of small businesses are operating in this manner, the larger companies would recognize and account for their influence on the market.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
The z core is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:
, x = raw score
Given that mean (μ) = 15 minutes per car, standard deviation (σ) = 2.4 minutes.
1) For x > 18:
From normal distribution table, P(x > 18) = P(z > 1.25) = 1 - P(z < 1.25) = 1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056
2) For x < 10:
From normal distribution table, P(x < 10) = P(z < -2.08) = 0.0188
3) For x > 12:
For x < 16:
From normal distribution table, P(12 < x < 16) = P(z < 0.42) - P(z < -1.25) = 0.6628 - 0.1056 = 0.5572
Answer:
$75
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Ke = risk free rate of return + beta×(market portfolio - risk free rate of return)
= 8% + 0.60 × (18% - 8%)
= 8% + 6%
= 14%
= 0.14
Now using the constant-growth DDM model :
Intrinsic value of the stock = Dividend ÷ (Ke - expected growing rate)
= $3 ÷ (0.14-0.10)
= $75
Hence, Intrinsic value of the stock is $75.
Answer:
(2) salaries for officials
Explanation:
Salaries for officials would be the most appropriate area to cut, because the other three items are either more important, or would cause unintented effects if cut.
Some government agencies could even be closed, or its personnel reduced, in case the economic crisis is serious.
As for the other three items, cutting education would not make sense because the IMF itself recommends large spending in education since an educated populace is highly correlated with economic development.
Cutting food subsidies would be problematic in a country that is going through an economic crisis, and could result in hunger among the poor.
Finally, cutting tax rebates for exporters would probably cause export earnings to dwindle even more because exporters would have less incentive to engage in that activity, and many of them would likely change their occupation.
