If 35 million tons of emissions permits are auctioned off, compared to each person getting 10 pounds of untradable emissions, it is a. better, because it lowers the cost of emissions abatement.

<h3>Why is it better?</h3>

If everyone got 10 pounds of untradable emission, the amount of emissions would be:

= (10 x 7 billion) / 2,000 pound per ton

= 35 million pounds

This is the same as the total amount of the emission permits but it is still more expensive than issuing permits because those permits are tradable.

Non-tradable permits will mean that some will exceed their permit and will be unable to share their emissions.

Year  Deposit amount ($)  At 9% for 3 years Future value of deposits ($)

1            $1,500                            (1.09)^3 = 1.295029        $1,942.54

2             $3,000                    (1.09)^2 = 1.1881                 $3,564.3

3            $2,200                            (1.09)^1 = 1.09                 $2,398

4             $3,000                               1                                 $3,000

Total                                                                                   $10,904.84

Future value = cash flow × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

When the amount of $10,904.84 is available, I buy the car.

On January 1, 2017, Whitefeather Industries issued 300, $1,000 face value bonds. The bonds have a five-year life and pay interes
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$15000

Explanation:

All types of bonds have some common characteristics which include;

- A face/par value

- A coupon rate (interest rate).

- Either redeemable/irredeemable or convertible.

The face value of one bond is $1000 so the total value of 300 bonds would be $300,000 (300×$1000). In this example these are redeemable bonds which means Whitefeather Industries would be liable to payback the capital amount of bonds after five years (maturity date).

The coupon rate (i.e interest) is charged on Par value. So the Interest can be calculated as $300,000×10% = $30,000 per year.

In this question interest is payable semi-annually, therefore The amount of interest that occurs on December 31, 2017 is $15000 (For the last six months - July 1st till Dec 31st; $30000×6÷12).
