Consider the case of a good with external benefits. If you plant trees in front of your house, the neighborhood is more attractive, and trees create shade, provide oxygen, and a home for birds and squirrels. Thus, the benefits to society are greater than the benefits to you. If the planting of trees is a private choice, you will plant too few trees relative to the socially optimal quantity, because the private value to you is less than the social value.

1. Which of the following would not help to correct this problem?
a. Subsidize consumer purchases of trees to plant.
b. Tax homeowners who plant trees.
c. Subsidize nurseries that sell trees for planting.
d. Have the government provide trees to homeowners.
e. All of the above would help to correct the problem.

2. If the government pays for a program to increase the planting of trees, who will win and lose from the program?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. b. Tax homeowners who plant trees.

2. Win - society and consumer

   Loose - tax payers and producers.

Explanation:

1. a). If the good creates a positive externalities, then the [tex]\text{private benefits from the good are less than the social benefits}[/tex] from the good.

In the context, the following would not help to correct the problem :

Taxing the homeowners who plant the trees.

If the government taxes or takes some money form the people or the house owners who plant trees in their neighborhood will discourage the people to plant the trees and would not help in correcting the problem.

2. If the government pays for the program that helps to increase the planting the trees, then,

the one who will win from this program is : society and the consumers

the one who will loose : tax payers and the producers as the government would impose more tax in order to fuel the project.

c. College students reduce how detergent they for each of laundry response to higher detergent prices.
d. College students purchase many more energy drinks during finals week than during the rest of the semester.

Answers

Answer:

a, a movement along a demand curve

b. shift of the demand curve.

c. a movement along a demand curve

d. shift of the demand curve.

Explanation:

Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.

Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :

1. a change in consumers' expectation

2. a change in the taste of consumers

3. a change in income

a. A discount would reduce the price of furniture, as a result the quantity demanded would increase. There would be a movement down along the demand curve.

b. As a result of the increase in grant, the income of students increase. this would lead to an increase in demand. the demand curve would shift outward

c. As a result of higher prices, the quantity demanded of detergents would reduce. This would lead to a movement up along the demand curve for detergents

d. An increase in demand for energy drinks is as a result of a change in taste. this would lead to an outward shift of the demand curve

= 2,567,000 + 695,000

= $3,262,000

No preferred dividends are in arrears at the current date. 2. Three years of preferred dividends are in arrears at the current date.

Answers

Answer:

1. No preferred dividends are in arrears at the current date.

Book value per share of common stock = Common Shareholder equity / Number of common stock shares

= (Total shareholders equity - Preferred stock) / Number of common stock shares

= (1,585,000 - 250,000) / 100,000

= $13.35 per share

2. Three years of preferred dividends are in arrears at the current date.

Preferred stock = (Preferred stock + Accumulated dividends)

= 250,000 + (6% * 250,000 * 3 years)

= 295,000 shares

Book value per share of common stock = (1,585,000 - 295,000) / 100,000

= $12.90 per share

The Assembly Department started the month with 24,800 units in its beginning work in process inventory. An additional 309,800 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department. There were 29,800 units completed and transferred to the next processing department during the month. How many units were in its ending work in process inventory? a. 314,800 b. 334,600 c. 304,800 d. 364,400

Answers

Answer:

c. 304,800

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How many units were in its ending work in process inventory

Using this formula

Ending work in process inventory Units= Beginning work in process inventory Units + Units started into production or transferred in - Units in ending work in process inventory

Let plug in the formula

Ending work in process inventory Units= 24,800 + 309,800 - 29,800

Ending work in process inventory Units = 304,800

Therefore How many units were in its ending work in process inventory is 304,800

The real risk-free rate of interest, k*, is 4 percent, and it is expected to remain constant over time. Inflation is expected to be 2 percent per year for the next four years, after which time inflation is expected to remain at a constant rate of 5 percent per year. The maturity risk premium is 0% for securities with maturities of 1 year or less, 0.1% in year 2, and increases by 0.1% per year thereafter. What is the yield on a 10-year Treasury bond

Answers

Answer:

8.3%

Explanation:

Real risk - free rate of interest ( k* ) = 4%

Inflation for next four ( 4 ) years = 2% per year

Inflation rate after four years = 5%

maturity risk premium =  0.1 ( t - 1 )%

Determine Yield on a 10-year Treasury bond

t = bond's maturity

Yield = Real risk - free rate + maturity risk premium + inflation rate

Inflation rate for 10 years = ( 4  + 30 ) / 10  ) % = 3.4%

Yield = 4% + 0.1(10- 1)% + 3.4

         = 4% + 0.9% + 3.4%

         = 8.3%

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The total portoflio value at the time of purchase will be:

= (100 × $30) + (100 × $58)

= $3000 + $5800

= $8800

Total Portoflio Value after 1 Year will be:

= (100 × $39) + (100 × $66)

= $3900 + $6600

= $10500

Total Portoflio Value after Year 2 will be:

= (100 × $42) + (100 × $71)

= $4200 + $7100

= $11300

Portfolio Return (Year 1) will now be:

= (10500 - 8800)/8800 × 100

= 1700/8800 × 100

= 19.32%

Portfolio Return (Year 2) will be:

= (11300 - 10500)/10500 × 100

= 800/10500 × 100

= 7.62%

Oltman Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The Corporation has provided the following estimated costs for next year:
Direct materials $25,000
Direct labor $22,000
Advertising expense $15,000
Rent on factory building $13,500
Sales salaries $28,000
Depreciation on factory equipment $6,500
Indirect materials $10,000
Insurance on factory equipment $12,000
Oltman estimated that 40,000 direct labor-hours and 20,000 machine-hours would be worked during the year. The predetermined overhead rate per machine-hour will be:___________
a) $1.05 per machine hour
b) $1.00 per machine hour
c) $2.10 per machine hour
d) $1.60 per machine hour

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.1 per machine hour

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the estimated total overhead:

Total estimated overhead= Rent on factory building + Depreciation on factory equipment + Indirect materials + Insurance on factory equipment

Total estimated overhead= 13,500 + 6,500 + 10,000 + 12,000

Total estimated overhead= $42,000

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 42,000 / 20,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.1 per machine hour
