Answer:
a. You would expect the yields to rise due to increased default risk.
c. You would expect the yields to rise to compensate investors for the loss of the tax-exempt status.
Explanation:
The foreign government is threatened with bankruptcy which means that the government might be unable to pay their bond obligations. This means that the risk of default has now increased and so yields will rise as a result of this.
Tax exempt bonds like Municipal bonds generally have lower yields because of their tax savings. If the Government was to impose taxes on previously tax exempt bonds, people would be getting less and so would have to be compensated for this loss by increased yields.

Answer:
Decrease
No change
Explanation:
As we know that
Contribution margin ratio = [(Sales - Variable Costs) ÷ (Sales) ]
Now in the case when the selling price and the variable cost would decreased by 7% so the sales and variable cost would decreased by the similar amount so there is no change in the contribution margin ratio
Also
Contribution Margin per Unit = Sales revenue per Unit - Variable Expenses per unit
Now if the selling price and the variable cost would decreased by 7% so the contribution margin would also decrease

Explanation:
The computation of the Variable overhead spending variance is shown below:
= (Standard variable overhead Rate × Actual Hour) - (Actual Rate × Actual Hour)
= ($12 × 400 units × 5.6 hours) - ($31,330)
= $26,880 - $31,330
= $4,450 Unfavorable
The (Actual Rate × Actual Hour) is also called as Actual variable overhead.
