If the production of a good created both external costs and external benefits, but the external costs were greater, without government intervention, a market economy will ​not produce the product at all.

In the production and consumption of goods and services, there exist costs that are passed on to a third party. The general public, who is ultimately responsible for paying for them, is in fact subsidizing goods and services with external costs.

External costs are still necessary to be paid for even when they are not included in the product's price. It is ultimately the responsibility of society as a whole to pay for external costs through taxes, accident compensation, medical expenditures, insurance premiums, deterioration in environmental quality, and losses in natural capital.

Usually, the price of goods and services includes External costs, which results in a higher overall cost. Because consumers frequently select the lowest options, clean, sustainable products have a pricing disadvantage.

Avicorp has a $15.5 million debt issue outstanding, with a 6.3% coupon rate. The debt has semi-annual coupons, the next coupon i
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) Pre-tax cost of debt is 8.45%

b) After tax cost of debt is 5.07%

Explanation:

a) Given:

Debt issue outstanding = $15.5 million

Semi-annual coupon rate = 0.063 / 2 = 0.0315

Assumed par value (FV) = $1,000

Coupon payment (pmt) = 0.0315 × 1000 = $31.5

Current bond price (PV) = 92% of $1,000 = $920

Time period (nper) = 5 × 2 = 10 periods

Calculate semi-annual rate using  spreadsheet function =Rate(nper,pmt,PV,FV)

Semi-annual rate = 4.14%

Pmt and FV are negative as they are cash outflows.

YTM = 4.14 × 2 = 8.28%

Effective annual rate = (1+\frac{Rate}{compounding\ periods}) ^{2} -1

                                   = (1+\frac{0.0828}{2}) ^{2} -1

                                   = 0.0845 or 8.45%

b) Tax rate is 40%

After tax cost of debt = Pre tax cost of debt × (1 - 0.4)

                                    = 0.0845 × 0.6

                                    = 0.0507 or 5.07%

Why is it easier to quantify paid work done outside the home over unpaid housework and childcare?
diamong [38]
<span>It is easier to quantify paid work done outside the home over unpaid housework and childcare because traditional means of tracking economic activity, such as the gross domestic product (GDP) can be used. Housework on the other hand is not easily measurable because the traditional means of tracking economic activity  do not take account of non-exchange, non-market household activity. </span>
