In financial distress, firms may make sub-optimal investment decisions. Explain the rationale behind this statement. What are the direct and indirect costs of bankruptcy? Give examples of firms with high and low bankruptcy costs and explain. “Stockholders need not be concerned with bankruptcy costs since they will be borne by bondholders.” Comment. (Assume that the firm declares bankruptcy when the value of assets is less than the value of obligations to bondholders. Thus, in bankruptcy, equity has zero value.) “Stock prices fall when...

3) There are 1,000 identical perfectly competitive real-estate firms selling office space in Syracuse, NY. The Marginal Cost of producing each square foot of space is constant and equal to $20. There are no fixed costs of production. So the firm’s short-run and long-run cost function is c(q) = 20q. The market demand is Q = 10,000 - 250p. Suppose a monopolist decides to buy out all 1,000 firms at once and monopolize the real estate market in Syracuse. Assume...

3) There are 1,000 identical perfectly competitive real-estate firms selling office space in Syracuse, NY. The Marginal Cost of producing each square foot of space is constant and equal to $20. There are no fixed costs of production. So the firm’s short-run and long-run cost function is c(q) = 20q. The market demand is Q = 10,000 - 250p. a) What is the equilibrium price and quantity of office space in the real-estate market in the short-run? How much does...
