Explanation:
The $100,000 investment is a convertible bond. This is a fixed-income debt security which yields interest payments. It should be noted that it can also be converted to equity shares or common stock.
Nazeem should pick a putable bond. This is because the puttable bond has a put option that is embedded ans he can also demand his principal to be paid early.
Nazem also recently bought bonds that have their interest rate tied to the consumer price index (CPI) so that he will be protected if inflation rates increase. Nazem has invested in purchasing power bond .

Answer:
(a) $7; $205 million
(b) $9; $195 million
(c) $400 million
(d) $390 million
(e) Loss = $10 million
Explanation:
(a) Price paid by consumers when no tariff imposed:
= Marginal cost + Distribution cost
= $6 + $1
= $7
Quantity demanded:
Q = 240 - 5P
    = 240 - 5 × $7
    = 240 - $35
    = $205 million pounds
(b) At imposed tariff of $2 per pound, then the new price paid by consumers:
= Marginal cost + Distribution cost + Tariff
= $6 + $1 + $2
= $9
New quantity demanded:
Q = 240 - 5P
    = 240 - 5 × $9
    = 240 - $45
    = $195 million pounds
(c) Lost consumer surplus:
= ($9 - $7)($195) + (0.5)($9 - $7)($205 - $195)
= ($2 × $195) + (0.5 × $2 × $10)
= $390 + $10
= $400 million
(d) Tax revenue collected by government:
= Quantity demanded under tariff × tariff
= $195 × $2
= $390 million
(e) Tax revenue of $390 million received is less than the value of coffee sold under tariff $400 million.
Loss = $400 million - $390 million
         = $10 million
