As an investor, would you agree to the statement "put all your eggs in one basket?" Substantiate your answer
No. Perhaps the first rule of safe investing is: Always diversify?never put all your eggs in one basket. A person or an organization's holdings of securities from several different corporations is called a portfolio of investments. A portfolio tends to be far less risky than any of the individual securities it contains because of the benefits of portfolio diversification.

A perfectly competitive firm faces a market clearing price of $150 per unit. Average total costs are at the minimum value of $120 per unit at an output rate of 70 units. Marginal cost equals $150 per unit at an output rate of 75 units
It can be concluded that the short-run profit-maximizing output rate is A) 75 units, at which the firm earns zero economic profits per unit sold. B) 75 units, at which the firm earns negative economic profits per unit sold. C) 75 units, at which the firm earns positive economic profits per unit sold. D) 70 units, because price is less than average total costs.
One assumption of the perfectly competitive model is free entry and exit. This assumption most directly leads to the implication that:
A. firms will compete on the basis of better service rather than lower prices. B. positive economic profit is only possible in the short run. C. firms will have to spend money on advertising. D. a long-run equilibrium cannot be achieved.
