Answer: 1. Charities
2. Government action the only viable solution
Explanation:
Externalities are the resultant additional effects that are experienced by others as a result of actions by an economic agent who does not bear the extra aformentioned cost or benefit that their actions bring about.
1. Private Solutions to Externalities include any solution independent of the government.
The above Private Solution is Charities because it was a Non-profit Environmental Organization that dealt with the lobbying for the reduction to be acted upon by state agents. These types of organisations are usually Charities.
2. If it is shown that the potential gains are viewed to be quite high as in this case then negotiating with the polluters might not work. In this case Government Intervention is needed to force the polluters to adhere to rules and regulations.
Answer:
The WACC is 11.64%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital or WACC is the cost to firm of raising its total capital based on its capital structure. The capital structure of the firm can contain debt, preferred stock and common stock. The WACC take the weight of each component as a proportion of total value of assets and multiply it by the rate of return or cost of each component.
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wE *rE
Where,
- wD and wE represent the weights of debt and equity as a proportion of total assets
- rD and rE are the cost of debt and cost of equity
- We multiply rD by (-tax rate) because we take after tax cost of debt for WACC calculation
Weight of debt = 2000000 / (2000000 + 3000000) = 2/5 or 0.4
Weight of equity is = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6
WACC = 0.4 * 0.06 * (1-0.4) + 0.6 * 0.17
WACC = 0.1164 or 11.64%
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": Larger, lower.
Explanation:
According to different researches carried out across the U.S., young adults who are between 18 and 29 years old have a total debt to $1.05 trillion. Individuals' debt who are older than 70 is $1 trillion. The average debt amount that young adults (18-29) have is $22,000 while elder people from 50 years old and on is $36,000.
Then, <em>young adults have larger accumulated debt than elders and their debt amounts are lower as well.</em>
