Chapter 3.4, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To discuss: The impact on investors' profit while violating the law of one price.
Introduction:
When investment opportunities of the same nature or commodities trade in two competitive markets with price differences, the investors will be benefited, as they will purchase in the market where the prices are cheap and they will sell in the market where the prices are high. By doing so, they will equalize the competitive prices of the market. This concept is known as “the law of one price”.
