diamong [38]

Answer:

Check the explanation as follows.

Explanation:

a) If it is invested in US

Current= $40 million

Interest rate= 0.28% p.m

Interest for 1 month= $40 million*0.28%= $0.112 million

Interest for 3 months= $0.112*3= $0.336 million

To reduce the level of pollution emitted by firms in an industry, the government could use a cap and trade policy or a carbon ta
bija089 [108]

Option D is true, the price of the good sold will rise under either policy and there will be a reduction in the level of production

Explanation:

Carbon-free is an effective way, even though the economy puts a monetary price above it and gives a value to the actual cost. Since the pollutant price is still in place, polluters are motivated to reduce pollution and to decide how far the gasses are produced.

In comparison, the restriction or cap on pollution can be published from industry by the cap-and-trade system. This limit is decreased in many cases after the pollution goal is met. If this is the case, the law requires polluters to buy the remaining quota from others with low emissions and generate more than the allotted quota.

Both methodologies will increase the cost of the good generated because it is distortionary. Production should however be decreased because of the control of pollution.
