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.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer: Price of pumpkins will fall compared to last year.

Explanation: Favorable weather leading to a larger crop than usual means that there is more supply of pumpkins this year than before.  Shifting the supply curve down to the right. At the same time, when people switch away from jack-o'-lanterns towards buying more costumes, it leads to a decline in the demand for pumpkins shifting the demand curve to the left.

The net result will be a decline in the demand for fall in the price of pumpkin. However, the effect on the quantity cannot be determined as it depends on the magnitude of shift in the two curves.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Current Yield of bond is 3.53%

Explanation:

Current yield is the ratio of coupon payment of a bond to its current market price.

Formula for Current yield is as follow

Current Yield = Annual Coupon payment / Current market price

First we need to calculate the coupon payment by using following formula

YTM = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ ( F + P ) / 2 ]

5.8%/2 = [ C + ( $1,000 - $1,150 ) / 16 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,150 ) / 2 ]

2.9% = [ C + ( $1,000 - $1,150 ) / 16 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,150 ) / 2 ]

2.9% = [ C - $9.375 ] / $1,075

1,075 x 2.9% = C - $9.375

31.175 = C - 9.375

C = 31.175 + 9.375 = $40.55 annually

Current Yield = Annual Coupon payment / Current market price

Current Yield = $40.55 / $1,150 = 0.0353 = 3.53%

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Logistics

Explanation:

Logistics is the process of managing the movement of merchandise or resources from their point of origin to the intended consumer.  Logistics in an organization is the management of mobility and storage activities undertaken by the company. Logistics management will involve the identification of distributors and suppliers of the company's products.

Poor logistics will hurt business performance. If the company's products are not available for consumers to buy,  low sales will be realized. An inefficient logistics system will make company products expensive.  As a result,  the company's goods becomes uncompetitive in the market.
