Answer:

Option 1 is correct.

Explanation:

There are two types of externality:

(i) Negative externality

(ii) Positive externality

Negative externality:

Suppose there is an economic transaction initiated between the two partners and this transaction reduces the consumption of third person, then this is known as the negative externality.

For example: Smoking is one of the example of negative externality. Smoking a cigarette is not only present in the consumption bundle of a person who smokes but it also affects the health of the other person who stands near that person. So, it reduces the consumption of non smoker.

A firm can lease a truck for 4 years at a cost of $30,000 annually. It can instead buy a truck at a cost of $80,000, with annual
valina [46]

Answer:

Leasing.

Explanation:

Find the present value of each and compare and choose the one with the lowest cost in present value terms.

<u>LEASE;</u>

Payments are in form of an annuity ;done using financial calculator (TI BA II plus)

PMT = -30,000

N ;duration = 4

I/Y = 10%

FV = 0

then CPT PV = -$95,095.96

<u>BUY</u>

Initial cost; (already in present value terms) = -$80,000

Annual maintenance(is an annuity); done using financial calculator (TI BA II plus)

PMT = -10,000

N ;duration = 4

I/Y = 10%

FV = 0

then CPT PV = -$31,698.65

Add PV of salvage value;

PV = FV/ (1+r)^4

PV = 20,000 /(1.10^4)

= 20,000/ 1.4641

= $13,660.26911

Overall PV of BUYING = (-80,000 -31,698.65 + 13,660.26911) = -$98,038.38

Therefore, leasing is a better option since the overall present value of costs  is lower at $95,095.96 compared to that of buying at 98,038.38.

C has a $100,000 traditional whole life insurance policy with a $30,000 cash surrender value. He applies for and receives a $10,
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

If C were disabled, his beneficiaries would receive $70,000, less any outstanding interest charges

Explanation:

Policy loans can generally amount up to 100% of the cash surrender value of the policy, in this case C only requested $10,000 (1/3 of the cash value). This type of loan is fully collateralized by the cash value of the policy and the borrower can even miss some payments or pay on a later date because interests keep adding.

This type of loan can carry a fixed or variable interest rate, depends on the insurer.

If C surrenders his policy, he will receive the total cash surrender value minus the loan amount = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000

If C dies, his beneficiaries would receive the full benefits minus the loan amount = $100,000 - $10,000 = $90,000
