A pollution charge gives the trucking industry an incentive to reduce its emissions, as long as the marginal cost of reducing the emissions is less than the tax. Option C is correct.

<h3>What is the marginal cost?</h3>

The marginal cost is the rise in production costs caused by the manufacture of more product units. It's also referred to as the marginal cost of manufacturing. Calculating the marginal cost enables businesses to determine how volume produced affects cost and, eventually, profits.

A pollution tax incentivizes the trucking sector to decrease emissions as long as the marginal cost of decreasing emissions is less than the tax.

Therefore, option C is correct.

O'Brien Ltd.'s outstanding bonds have a $1,000 par value, and they mature in 25 years. Their nominal annual, not semiannual yiel
kiruha [24]

Answer:

7.84%

Explanation:

Given:

Bond's par value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 25 × 2 = 50 periods (since it's semi-annual)

YTM (rate) = 0.0925÷2 = 0.04625 semi annually

Price of bond (PV) = $875

Calculate coupon payment (pmt) using spreadsheet function =pmt(rate,nper,-PV,FV)

PV is negative as it's a cash outflow.

So semi- annual coupon payment is $39.20

Annual coupon payment = 39.2×2 = $78.40

Nominal Coupon rate = Annual coupon payment ÷ Par value

                                     = 78.4 ÷ 1000

                                     = 0.0784 or 7.84%

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The preparation of the 2021 EPS presentation for the Esposito Import Company is shown below:

Income from continuing operations                           $7 million

Less: Loss from discontinued operations                  ($1.4 million)

Net income                                                   $5.6 million

Now the earning per share would be

Earning per share = (Net income) ÷ (Number of shares)

                              = ($5.6 million) ÷ (1 million shares)

                              = $5.6 per share
