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.

noname [10]

Answer:

RE break point = $24500

Explanation:

21,000 net income

30% OF Earnings as dividends

21,000 x 30% = 6,300 dividends

Retained Earnings (assuming no previous beginning value)

This mean that the company can raise financing for this ammount without changing their capital structure (60% equity 40% debt)

If the company wants to finance for more, it will need to raise new shares or chance their capital structure, and therefore the WACC will change

Soloha48 [4]

To break-even means making sales where the proceeds from sales transactions equal the amount of total costs incurred,hence no gain no loss situation.

Break-even point in units=fixed cost/contribution per unit

fixed costs incurred is $8,400

contribution per unit=selling price per unit -variable cost per unit

selling price is $28

variable cost is $16.80

contribution per unit=$28-$16.80=$11.2 0

break-even in units =$6,800/$11.2 0=607 units

Identify the statement that is incorrect. Multiple Choice Higher financial leverage involves higher risk. Risk is higher if a co
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Risk is higher if a company has more assets.

Explanation:

All of the following statements are true and correct;

1. Higher financial leverage involves higher risk.

2. Risk is higher if a company has more liabilities.

3. The debt ratio is one measure of financial risk.

4. Lower financial leverage involves lower risk.

However, it is false and an absolutely incorrect to say risk is higher if a company has more assets.

A company having more assets would have a debt ratio less than one (1) because it has many assets to fund it's business. Thus, the company would have little or no debts and as such, it's risk portfolio is very low.

Hence, risk is lower if a company has more assets.

Advocard [28]

Answer:

The explicit tax would Curtis incur on interest earned on the Initech, Inc. bond is $7,395

Explanation:

The computation of the explicit tax is shown below:

= (Invested amount × interest rate with similar risk) × marginal tax rate

= ($425,000 × 7.25%) × 24%

= $30,812.50 × 24%

= $7,395

We consider the invested amount, similar risk interest rate, and the marginal tax rate. The paying interest rate would not be considered. Hence, ignore it
